Scunthorpe Scorpions 2018


Recommended Posts

A Lyager has been mentioned a few times before & with him being an ex Scorpion, I would have thought he would have been approached. Maybe his other commitments that make it impossible.

Number 6 gets harder races than number 7, so don't expect Phillips to be scoring many more! I.e If heat 2 Scunny get a 4-2 Phillips gets one point between oppostion, then in next 2 races he meets the 1&2 then 3&4 pairing, so can only expect him to come last! Manzares would probably get an extra race in ht 12 or 14. So Phillips would end up with a 1.33 ave just by riding to form!

Honestly our luck with injuries is a joke, i'm starting to think there's a higher power that's decided our team is just too good so it never let's us use our full team xD

We have not seen a full meeting with our starting 1-7 with the Scorpions supporters hoping for a great season. I feel, at the moment, we have only got the hard core supporters there every week & not the "extras" we were hoping to get but we will just get on with it, keep trying & support to the end.

After last year's injury hit season I didn't think there could be any black cats left in Scunthorpe for Rob to run over but looks like I was wrong 

Any news on what exactly Garrity's injury is ?  Shame when he was called as reserve to Cardiff

Jason had 2 x-rays & thankfully nothing broken but is battered & bruised & will have a bit of time off.

He was not the only member of the Scorpion crew to get an injury. Rob cut his palm open changing an engine for Jake requiring possibly stitches or gluing together.

So all the Scorpions are back fit on July 22nd against Glasgow. 

Probably not but not to worry , with Teams having to re-arrange fixtures there be plenty of our riders to choose from for Guests to help them reach the play-offs while we struggle to get our fixtures in before the cut-off :mad: :nono:

Oh heck what's up??

I would imagine Scunthorpe are going to change there race day back to Sundays as they think they will get a better pick of guest riders and make it easier for those teams who race on Friday's not to have fixtures put off which were agreed on before the season commenced.

I think you need to check your facts the reason the Workington meeting was postponed was because you were missing 4 riders (Bewley BWD Klindt and cant remember the last one) due to the SGP challenge hence the postponement
