Simon Nielsen7. Lewis Rose I believe Anton Rosen is pencilled in for this match. The Swede has missed a number of matches with a broken collarbone. If he doesn't make an appearance we will use R/R to cover for him. The Diamonds performances (Steve Worrall apart) have not been very consistant so lets see what getting back to full strength does for the team. Anton will be at number 2 or 4.

ruffdiamond Posted June 2, 2015 Report Share Posted June 2, 2015 Apart from Steve's last visit to Scunny :-(,,, Anton rode very well there last time, so hopefully he does return, Newcastle could do with a decent score,,, 40+, so no pressure lads :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EIS002 Posted June 2, 2015 Report Share Posted June 2, 2015 I think the D's will meet a very different and improved Scunny side. Scorps to win by 10 is my prediction. Best of luck to both teams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebaron Posted June 2, 2015 Report Share Posted June 2, 2015 (edited) Think this will be a tough tie; if we can take 10pts to Rough Park I'll be happy with that. Should be more great action at the EWR and the forecast is sunny for Scunny. Edited June 2, 2015 by the outsider 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lucifer sam Posted June 3, 2015 Report Share Posted June 3, 2015 (edited) SCORPIONS OUT TO MAKE CUP PROGRESS FLUIDAIR POWER Scunthorpe Scorpions, supported by Henderson Insurance, take a break from Premier League action, when they entertain the Newcastle Diamonds in the first round of the Travel Plus Tours Knockout Cup at the Eddie Wright Raceway on Friday evening (7.30pm). The first leg of this Knockout Cup tie was due to take place at Newcastle’s Brough Park on May 3, but was rained off. The Brough Park leg will now take place on Sunday, June 28, in place of the Premier League meeting scheduled between the two sides on that date. Scunthorpe’s mission on Friday night for what is now the first leg is simple… to build up as big a lead as possible to defend at Brough Park for the second leg. The Scorpions and Diamonds will see plenty of each together during 2015. They were in the same League Cup group, and there are still Premier League clashes to follow between the two sides. The League Cup clashes suggest a very close KO Cup tie over two legs, since the Scorpions defeat the Diamonds by 53-37 on April 17 at the Eddie Wright Raceway, while the Diamonds won by 53-39 at Brough Park two days later. Although it should be pointed out that, since then, the Scorpions have bolstered their line-up, with the introduction of Ryan Douglas and Ben Wilson. Both Douglas & Wilson will make their second appearance of the season in Scorpions’ colours on Friday night. With Josh Auty still out with a hand injury, Berwick’s Ben Barker again comes in to guest in the No 1 spot. Barker also guested for the Scorpions at Somerset, and was due to guest at Plymouth in the postponed meeting last Saturday. Scunthorpe promoter Rob Godfrey says: “We’ve booked Ben Barker as a guest once more. Ben is a rider who will always give 100% in every meeting he races in, whether it’s for his regular team or a guest or whatever. “He’s the common sense choice at the moment, because his average isn’t that far from Josh’s. “If we’re looking to progress in the cup, and I can you assure that we are, then it’s not just about winning on Friday, but also building up a lead that we can defend when we go to Brough Park. “Cup meetings always have a slightly different flavour, because you don’t have to defend from tactical rides, because they aren’t allowed in this competition. “I’m sure Friday is going to be a night of some awesome racing, while we will doing everything we can to ensure we come out of the meeting with the result we require.” The Scorpions won the third-tier Knockout Cup in both 2006 and 2007, but have only reached the semi-finals at Premier League level once before in their history (in 2009). A good omen is that the side that the Scorpions defeated in the first round in 2009 were Newcastle.

dantodan Posted June 3, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 3, 2015 Newcastle started season 2015 with a team of second strings pus two reserves. We have not acheived very much so far. Steve Worrall is nudging Lewis Kerr as our number 1 rider but Steve has never done much at Scunthorpe but!! he is learning all the time and could just score big points in this match? The rest of the Diamonds team are well capable of finishing last or winning a heat so look out Scunthorpe Newcastle could beat you at home 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben Barker at 1 for the Scorpions and Anton Rosen still R/R for the Diamonds Scunthorpe 1. Ben Barker2. Theo Pijper3. Ryan Douglas4. Carl Wilkinson5. Alex Davies6. Ben Wilson7. Nike Lunna If there are changes to the Scorpions line up please let me know and I will amend the post Newcastle 1. Lewis Kerr2. Anton Rosen R/R3. Steve Worrall4. Christian Henry5. Ludvig Lindgren ©6.

You are not a Nil pointer anywhere else so hopefully you can get some wins at EWR. It looks like the KO cup will be both teams goal for the season, so I hope the match is great entertainment with the crowd wanting to come back for more next week Edited June 4, 2015 by dantodan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
