Scunthorpe Scorpions 2016?


Recommended Posts

So we're all sorted for 2016; thinking this through and not totally dismissing Zedi; we all would agree we have needed a big hitter. But with Carlos at reserve we appear not to be able to accommodate one. Well; you might be wrong; how about a potential No1 rider on a what appears to be a false final average. How about this

 

Josh 8.00; Ryan 6.68; Alex 6.26; Carlos 5.33 and our new signings Bellego 5.98; Wilson-Dean 3.00 AND Ritchie Worrall 6.84 = 42.09 what a team; lots of scoring there.

 

Fine if it is Zedi; but I just think that Ritchie Worrall can provide the big scores in the big heats and add 2pts to that average racing back at Scunny.

 

Someone is going to land BWD so why not Scunny? and Bellego is right racer round the EWR; think Rob likes him. I can see Ritchie wanting to move from Somerset; not had the best of seasons and a move back to where it all began; could be a win win.

I don't think BWD will be a 3.00, would love it to be so and would love him at Glasgow, he seemed to like the track when he was up

Don't see why not; he is a NL rider regardless of his being a New Zealander; and never had PL experience which I think is the criteria. But just watch the powers tie him up in red tape and say he should be 5.00. Think he has British family connections though.

 

Suffice to say whoever gets BWD or Adam Ellis has to be nailed on for a tilt at the silverware. Both are head and shoulders above the rest of the NL picks; without any disrespect to the other draft lads.

Adam ended 2014 with a 4.67 average.

I cant see how he can be one of the No7s.

Will be a great No6 though.

 

Would be a very handy No6 , should have been at Ipswich past season . Please Mr Louis take note sign him for next year plenty of improvement i think to come from Adam

If he stays on the bike more now.

 

Very true he seems to have had quite a few shall we say arguments with the 4th bend fence at Foxhall . Might just be trying to get back to the Pits a little quicker

I think he may well have been had he not been retained by Lakeside.

I believe the agreement to let him go that has been announced this year was due to be in place last year until the last minute.....
