Lewis Posted January 7, 2014 Report Share Posted January 7, 2014 Have to say Rob Godfrey has done it again with an excellent looking team. The fact that he stuck with the lad Douglas has to be a major coup for this season, the lad looks as though he could put some serious points on his average. With the exception of the lad Williamson you can see a team of 6 riders who have the potential to average between 6.5 to 8 points. For me they are the team to beat. Agreed Spinny, looks like a good team with 6 riders who have potential to be number 1, of course not all will improve, they never do but I like the balance of this team. Suprised how many people dont think this team will make the top 6 I am sure the Scunny fans will all be loving being written off... makes it sweeter when you do well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RS50 Posted January 14, 2014 Report Share Posted January 14, 2014 I know the fixtures are not out yet, but can anyone tell me if Scunny will be running double headers on Easter, Spring Bank and August bank holiday Mondays. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stratton Posted January 14, 2014 Report Share Posted January 14, 2014 Scunny fans who do you think will be the No 1 ? this year i think Auty will be average about 8.80? Douglas could he add two points to his average?This side looks the side to beat for me well done to Rob Godfrey he has put together an exciting team on there travels they will be great value i will certainly go to Somerset to watch them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mossy666 Posted January 14, 2014 Report Share Posted January 14, 2014 Would be real good to see a Stag/Saints team in the National league though 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A ORLOV Posted January 15, 2014 Report Share Posted January 15, 2014 Thank Orlov, I forgot about that website. Look like Ryan is doing really well in Australia so far, beating some of the riders who are considered better in the PL e.g.Nick Morris. Really looking fwd to see if he can continue with his great improvement during the second half of the season in 2013, could be anywhere from a 5 to an 8 pt average for him. Ryan Douglas is in the line up for the Aus under 21 Championship at Gillman on Jan 25th, this will be covered on Speedway Updates 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spin king junior Posted January 15, 2014 Report Share Posted January 15, 2014 Would be real good to see a Stag/Saints team in the National league though Wouldn't mind seeing the Sheffield/Scunthorpe connection back in the national league. Unlikely to happen. But I enjoyed seeing some of the younger lads riding around Owlerton as well as having another team to support! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eric i Posted January 17, 2014 Report Share Posted January 17, 2014 Looks like Scunthorpe will be racing sunday afternoons to start with and then switching to Fridays latter in the year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lucifer sam Posted January 17, 2014 Report Share Posted January 17, 2014 Looks like Scunthorpe will be racing sunday afternoons to start with and then switching to Fridays latter in the year. That's correct. There will be forthcoming Press Release (probably tonight) to explain this, but basically it's because it gets very dark & cold at the EWR early in the season, if the club run evening meetings. All the best Rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How will it affect Jorgy as he has a team place in Poland this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EC Rides Again Posted January 17, 2014 Report Share Posted January 17, 2014 How will it affect Jorgy as he has a team place in Poland this year. I don't think the Polish league season starts until late April, so not an issue. Looking at the fixtures I don't see the home leg of the KO Cup against Peterborough - anyone know when it is ?

Albert Posted January 18, 2014 Report Share Posted January 18, 2014 According to the fixtures Scunny are playing Redcar twice home and away in the PL. And Sheffield is our other double fixture. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eric i Posted January 18, 2014 Report Share Posted January 18, 2014 It says on the BSPA website, Teams race 24 meetings (12 home, 12 away). I read on the forum there is going 14 home and away, I guess they have just failed to update the website. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didnt see this post Sidney... I have no idea who will be number 1, thats the great thing about this side, could be anyone of 6 riders, although Auty would probably be favourite to move upto an 8 ptr.

Surely it has to be Anders as he is your highest averaged rider? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
