dantodan Posted April 17, 2015 Report Share Posted April 17, 2015 Newcastle 1. Steve Worrall2. Christian Henry3. Lewis Kerr4. Anton Rosen5. Ludvig Lindgren6. Simon Nielsen7. Lewis Rose Scunthorpe 1. David Howe2. Theo Pijper3. Alex Davies4. Carl Wilkinson5. Josh Auty6. Ellis Perks7. Nike Lunna Could Newcastle be going for the double over Scunthorpe? We struggled at Sheffield on Thursday being soundly beaten by the Tigers. Another away win at EWR tonight (Friday) would be the best response to us losing at Owlerton.

ellioth4 Posted April 19, 2015 Report Share Posted April 19, 2015 Looking forward to the first league cup home meeting off the season. I predict a home win tonight. Updates of tonight's meeting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest WTF1 Posted April 19, 2015 Report Share Posted April 19, 2015 It's a shame Scunthorpe haven't got a number 1 rider because this would be quite a decent team but you ain't gonna win when the number 1 only scores 2 as Newcastle also found out at Scunny when Worrall rode like a novice and didn't score.

What the hell is up with Howe this season? Bikes? Injury?Or just a season too many now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fozzie4388 Posted April 19, 2015 Report Share Posted April 19, 2015 What the hell is up with Howe this season? Bikes? Injury?Or just a season too many now? Don't know what's up with him but the Scunthorpe Promotion always seem to bring up an excuse for him. Must have a full book by now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest WTF1 Posted April 19, 2015 Report Share Posted April 19, 2015 What the hell is up with Howe this season? Bikes? Injury?Or just a season too many now? probably the latter Don't know what's up with him but the Scunthorpe Promotion always seem to bring up an excuse for him. Must have a full book by now. Unfortunately the Scunthorpe promotion always build the team around him as still being number 1, but in all honesty he is just a second string rider that has a few good meetings mainly at home now.

Chewbacca Posted April 20, 2015 Report Share Posted April 20, 2015 It's going to be interesting at Brough this season. You get the impression with all 7 of our team that they could win any race they are in but have an equal chance of finishing last. Nice to see Wilko on form last night and was impressed by Lunna despite him only scoring 2 points. Was battling for a scoring place in every heat and was trying every line possible. At only 17, he looks a good prospect. My car temperature gauge said 8C when I got back in after the meeting. It's in the garage todayto be checked as that was definitely 20C optimistic! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dantodan Posted April 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2015 Just thawed out from my visit to my usual vantage point along the end by the fourth bend. There is no glass in the window frames at that end of the grandstand and the faithful all stood there in hoods and hats as the wind blew icy blasts at us. The action on the track was pretty hot though. My Favourite Ludde was top class entertainment. I also respect Christian Henry and was happy that he did so well. If the entire team have a good match at the same time someone will get thumped. I like Roy's nickname for Christian..The Boomerang. As we all know Henry keeps coming back to Newcastle and rarely lets the team down I thought the track was quite good but was a little puzzled by the blade coming out! But hey what do I know about track prep. The times were a little slow apart from a couple below 64 seconds so maybe it is not yet in top shape 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DIAMONDS Posted April 20, 2015 Report Share Posted April 20, 2015 What the hell is up with Howe this season? Bikes? Injury?Or just a season too many now? Watching in the pits from the picnic tables at Newcastle all I saw all night was David Howe running up and down bump starting his bikes and messing with them, also a few spanners across the pits from him, so I am guessing it's the bikes last night. But I have the feeling it could be a mix of all three things you said there (Especially at number 1) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Justgotmecpc Posted April 20, 2015 Report Share Posted April 20, 2015 going back to last night meet'n at Newcastle,, regarding david howe who on his day is a class act,, but I cant help thinking is that is he drop'n his av for when ryan douglas returns to maybe drop young perks who will find it hard going at away tracks this seas'n which may allow them to keep theo in the team,, which will make them stronger for the rest of the year,, 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phillwhitewasmad Posted April 20, 2015 Report Share Posted April 20, 2015 Think there would have to be a drastic cut in all averages for that to happen and not quite sure if that is scunthorpes way of going out things. Ellis perks will be fine don't forget he is riding in the more difficult reserve position Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember Howe scoring an 18 Point Maximum at Brough a couple of years ago. He was terrific. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ellis perks will be fine don't forget he is riding in the more difficult reserve position quite agree on perks as he'll improve well this year doing the national league and hopefully stay'n in scunny's team as he looks good And how will that make Scunthorpe any stronger when David Howe is struggling to score as many as Perks away, will there be a magic wand waved where Howe suddenly becomes unbeatable, stick with the youngster. its funny how things pan out and I agree with keeping the young'n in the team as that's the only way he'll get better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
