Scunthorpe V Workington - Tuesday, April 30th (premier League) (7.30pm) Live On Sky Sports


Recommended Posts

That's not exactly it. The 8-day rule doesn't apply to no. 1's at home. But also, the 8-day rule only applies to 2 guest bookings within the period, appearances with your own team don't count. That's a change this season, and a welcome one.

Glad I'm not a team manager... The rules of speedway are baffling for what seems to be on the whole a simple sport.

Two excellent guests, 3 ex Scorpions/Saints + Rene and Rusty, we could be struggling carrying our two reserves. Ryan and Josh need to step up to the mark to make a valuable contribution ,or points will be going back to Cumbria. Too close to call this one, maybe another last heat decider???

who will be autys first victem. or will he self destruct. anger on a bike, that's josh.

 

 

workingtons UNOFFICIAL w/site explains the guest rule. cook can ride at scunny and STILL ride for his pl team 6 days later. . the rule change was brought in this year.(i think)

and before you say its only on the unofficial site, its run by laura morgan (promotor)

and the management team . inc jacko. so its a 100% nailed on move. read it and weep. scorps.

Supporters bus leaving at 1.50pm and I'l be on it :party: , hope my nerves hold out , this is shaping up to be a cracker , hoping all 14 riders have a safe night and lets put on a good show for Sky to show what the PL is made of, (especially afer that shambles that was served up last night ;) )

Genuinely looking forward to this more than I have any Sky EL meeting this year, someone on another thread said this will be a boring meeting due to the lack of top quality caliber riders but I disagree, the main reason I like the PL is that it can be used as a breeding ground for top quality riders like Birks, Dyer and Cook tonight and every rider gives it his all and never gives up in a race regardless of how far behind they are unlike a certain Mr Batchelor last week.

 

Even with Worky's guests I believe Scunny will win but it will be a lot closer than what it would have been 48-42 Scorpions

No wonder they missed it if they went there. Their bus was leaving from somewhere else :)

 

There was a burst pipe in the bus station,there was hell on i can tell you,the SCB have sent a ref to have a look but he hasnt got any wellys and SCB expenses prohibit the purchase of anything rubber or latex

There's an Excel racecard for tonight's match here https://www.dropbox....il 2013).xlsx?m

 

Best viewed 'full screen' on Excel 'view' options.

 

Looking forward to this one and on the subject of guests think on this - in my first 8 seasons of watching NL racing in the 80's I saw 5 guest riders, and not one for an injured rider. How times have changed... :blink:
