Edinburgh V Scunthorpe & Redcar - Friday, August 31st


Recommended Posts

Looks like an impressive performance all round from the Scorpions lads - 10+1, 13+1, 10, 9+2 and 8+1...... every Scorpion outscoring his average on an away track renowned as being difficult/technical. That has to be impressive

ironscorp if the tracks as wet as the times suggest the normal set ups edin would use normally will be of no use, it levels the playing field.

 

Are you trying to tell me that Edinburgh HAVE NOT ridden at home on a wet track this year! They must be the only ones to have ridden in good/best conditions then to have(had) a full house of points.

Maybe because they ARE the better team. :party:

 

On the night yes scunny dealt with conditions far better, full 1 to 7's head to head, hmmmmmm would be interesting.

redcar riding like they dont want to be there..... proves nothing other than monarchs have had 15 practice races.

Not when the races are consistently 5 secs slower no.

Glad thats over. Yes racing was pretty much NIL but fair play to Scorpions faster out the gate and attacked the track, deserved winners and maybe shud have been by more. Redcar well less said the better, there in the right place in the table. Just glad to get another two meetings out the way and we've moved up to 6th, can we stay there i doubt it but stranger things have happened.

Could someone who was at this meeting post the result of heat 12 of the Scunthorpe meeting from a programme or Speedway Star please? The Edinburgh websites disagree about which reserve was in for the Scorpions.

From one June to another lol. I wasn't at the meeting, but did go to the Scunny website and got this info for you. Taken from the News section..match report.. page 15.;

Heat 12. result; Jorgensen. Pijper. Irving. Helfer . Hope that answers your question?

I did see that, but I'm not sure if Scunthorpe took their results from the Edinburgh website. It's just the Chatzone makes errors so infrequently, whereas I've seen a few on Edinburgh Monarchs. It's also more likely you'd not notice a reserve change than see one that didn't happen, if that makes sense? :unsure::D But thank you. Looks like, in the absence of anything concrete, I'll have to go with that.
