Paulco Posted May 9, 2013 Report Share Posted May 9, 2013 So assuming we emerged unscathed after our trip east to the Scotwaste Skip , we will welcome the reigning Premier League Champions to our humble little track of excitement this Sunday . Been a bit of a stuttering start to the defence of their title with home draws against Ipswich and a Craig Cook inspired Workington ,in the TV match ,before a narrow win against Craig Cook's other team on Bank Holiday Monday . Scunthorpe boast an all-English heat leader trio in the shape of veteran David Howe , the exciting Josh Auty and the emerging Ashley Birks . They are backed up by Scandanavians Thomas Jorgensen and Michael Palm Tree with rookie reserve Ryan Douglas and recent acquisition Lewis Blackbird making up the septet . So it has all the makings of another classic . Teams should be - Glasgow 1 Joe Screen 2 Henning Bager 3 James Wright 4 Joey Ringwood 5 James Grieves 6 Harley Horwood 7 Joe Jacobs Scunthorpe 1 Josh Auty 2 Thomas Jorgensen 3 Michael Palm Tree 4 Ashley Birks 5 David Howe 6 Ryan Douglas 7 Lewis Blackbird Another close run thing looks on the cards , let's hope it's as entertaining as last week . Last time at Ashy 24/6/12 Glasgow 55 Grieves 13+2(5) Screen 13+1(5)O'Malley 7+1(4) Campton 7+1(4) Sitera 6+1(4)Mills 5+1(4) Grajczonek 4 (4) Scunthorpe 38 Henry (guest) 13(5) Auty 12(5)Doolan (guest) 5 Birks 4+1(7)Aarnio 2+1(3) Palm Tree 2(6) Armstrong r/r Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fozzie4388 Posted May 9, 2013 Report Share Posted May 9, 2013 Can see the Score been something similar to last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lucifer sam Posted May 9, 2013 Report Share Posted May 9, 2013 The Scorps also won 47-43 at Ashfield during 2012 (in the League Cup)... a repeat of that scoreline will do very nicely. All the best Rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MD Posted May 10, 2013 Report Share Posted May 10, 2013 Bit concerned about putting Ringwood at No4, particularly in ht14. Surely it would be better to put him to No3 and have James Wright at No4. Having Bager at No2 makes sense though No8 would have been better after last Sunday. The only way is up! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lucifer sam Posted May 12, 2013 Report Share Posted May 12, 2013 Hope this beats the weather. The Premier League's No 1 team v Scotland's No 1 team - should be a cracker. All the best Rob 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IronScorpion Posted May 12, 2013 Report Share Posted May 12, 2013 The rainfall radar on Met Office gives rain around Glasgow but doesn't hit until 7. Then blows over quickly to give a fair evening so it all depends if the track was prepared earlier for a shower but give it a chance & run it a bit late. Do you have a curfew & at what time?

A bit late for starting late as the 10 heats have all ready been run. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
racers and royals Posted May 12, 2013 Report Share Posted May 12, 2013 (edited) Can i take it that James Grieves doesn`t like a wet track Edited May 12, 2013 by racers and royals Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Blobby Posted May 12, 2013 Report Share Posted May 12, 2013 Can i take it that James Grieves doesn`t like a wet track I know that James has recently lost his Grandfather I think that might have something to do with his performances of the last few days.

glasgowmicktiger Posted May 12, 2013 Report Share Posted May 12, 2013 James is one of those guys that loves a wet track and one of the few who will still ride hard but as blobby says it is a sad time for James and family. good to see henning get some points and a win today. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lucifer sam Posted May 12, 2013 Report Share Posted May 12, 2013 Scunny stay unbeaten in the league after 4 matches - although 3 of those have been draws (the only team we've beaten is Scotland's No 2 team). Looks like a draw was about a fair result today. All the best Rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
