Workington V Scunthorpe 15/04/17 Champ 7:00pm


Recommended Posts

Guests are hard to come by on a Saturday but a quick look could give us a choice of a few guests for Wallner if money will allow. D Greenwood started well for Cradley, Bewley as we know what he can do & a fellow 4 pointer, guesting for Sheffield in M Riss. Knowing our quality of guests before, we will probably get someone similar to Campos again.

just posted on Ippo v P/boro late start, 1 heat in 25 minutes after meeting started & this is just as bad. 5 heats in 55 minutes. Presentation driving fans away is what is being talked about on forum. Slickness required.

Good point for Scunthorpe, Roynon disappointing tonight, wonder if Cook thought Campton was still with him when the excellent Palm Toft passed him. Need to be better next week in KO Cup against Newcastle.

From the updates site, it looked like a team effort, filling in the minor places & a rider having an excellent meeting.

 

Well done the Scorpions on getting a totally, unexpected point.

im not a scorpian fan but just saying nise to see someone who looks down the list and gives credit to the ones scoring 3 or 4 points towards a result

far too many judge a TEAM by how many riders score max or paid max's

scunthorpe looked poor in the first 2 or 3 heats but adapted better than workington did to the very slick/dusty track they earned there point and at 1 period looked like they were in with a chance of actually turning it into a win

Decent meeting spoiled by the wind. The track staff had no chance I seen them watering the track as late as 6.40 but there was dust first heat because of the drying wind.

Riders just settling in yet Mason sorted his mechanical problems out and got a great score

Adam for me is the one that's struggling we know how poor his away form can be but to ride like that at home is unacceptable which his experience around Workington. I've not been impressed with Adam no new equipment by the looks of it and it was not fast enough last season at least Mason has invested in equipment and the rewards showed last night just need him to keep it up now.

ive also wondered if adams not been able to invest in new gear

it is hard when your not scoring the points and maybe not much sponsership

and also remember adam has a young baby to support

its catch 22 cant invest without money and cant improve/be competative without investing in new gear

Not riding in the second tier last year was a big mistake, as he would have achieved a 'real average' and increased his domestic earnings as well. Never understood why he did that, maybe i missed the reason why...
