Add in the battle of the Worrall twins, and we should hopefully have another exciting encounter at the Dale tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IronScorpion Posted August 2, 2018 Report Share Posted August 2, 2018 Taken from your newsroom ; Visiting Scorpions near full strength NEWS Thursday 2nd August 2018, 9:00am by Mike Hunter This week's Armadale visitors are Scunthorpe whose powerful team has been disrupted by injury for much of the season, but they are virtually at full strength to face the Staggs Bar Monarchs on Friday. Heat leaders Stevie Worrall and Jason Garrity are in the side along with Josh Auty, Jake Allen and Gino Manzares leaving only long-term injury victim Stefan Nielsen on the sidelines, and he is pretty well covered by rider replacement. Most Scorpion fans know that our biggest loss has been Stefan Nielsen as the way he started the season, r/r & most guests have not covered his scoring potential. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bagpuss Posted August 2, 2018 Report Share Posted August 2, 2018 He has just dropped a place in the averages too meaning he will be even less adequately covered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brylcream boy Posted August 2, 2018 Report Share Posted August 2, 2018 After tonight’s result, confidence must be sky high. Let’s hope the reserves can pitch in with 7/8 points between them, could make all the difference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gr8scot Posted August 3, 2018 Report Share Posted August 3, 2018 Anything will be better than last week. Nice to see Scunny almost back to their own 7 riders and they will have their tails up after last night Can we avoid the sting and put the icing on Ed’s birthday cake..... yeah, I hope so!

Confidence should be high, though, so let us hope we can keep it tight. A point would be a good result for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Blobby Posted August 3, 2018 Report Share Posted August 3, 2018 This week will see what this new team is capable of against a good Scunthorpe side who will be flying high after last night. A home victory by 10. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Blobby Posted August 3, 2018 Report Share Posted August 3, 2018 Garrity apparently either broken down/crashed on route not here yet or not coming at all now. Shame if not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shame if not. He has started crashing on the way to meetings now, I knew he was prone to the odd accident well several accidents but doing it on the way is taking it to a whole new level. 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crescent girl Posted August 3, 2018 Report Share Posted August 3, 2018 Garrity a no-show. No facility. Lewis Millar in at 3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IronScorpion Posted August 3, 2018 Report Share Posted August 3, 2018 I cannot believe it. with all the injury bad luck we have had all year, now we get travel disruptions with Allen last night(although he made it in time) now we have Garrity. Just when we see light at the end of the tunnel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jake certainly prefers a larger track but is good enough to get around the tighter ones now,. Sounds like he held his end up tonight for the team on an otherwise difficult night. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spiderman1 Posted August 3, 2018 Report Share Posted August 3, 2018 Let’s be honest,tight tracks are boring ,most are gate and go to flag,Allen has done very well on tight tracks in Australia (Ipswich) ,as he showed tonite just needed a team 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hel'n'Back Posted August 3, 2018 Report Share Posted August 3, 2018 Obviously Scunthorpe don't like the track the same as at Sheffield Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bagpuss Posted August 4, 2018 Report Share Posted August 4, 2018 2 hours ago, ekimba said: Yeah the trick track where previous monarch Stevie Worrall scored 2+1 Very difficult to go there and score points on a one off visit when home riders are so dialled in even if he used to ride there, one could argue that his score proves how tricky a circuit Armadale is. Even Cook has posted modest scores there in the past as a visitor. Just like Poole in the top division Edinburgh look to be revitalised by a couple of changes and seem to be the team to beat now. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
