IronScorpion Posted July 23, 2019 Report Share Posted July 23, 2019 Now we know the answers to our questions about whether Garrity or Barker will be here at the weekend. Garrity to Birmingham so Barker to the Scorpions. As I have said on previous threads, he has sorted his personal problems, scored well for us & other teams have picked him as a guest. Welcome fulltime Ben. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Welcome fulltime Ben. Well if we had not made this switch I don't know what more Ben Barker could have done to make us make this switch ?. His form so far indicates he is the long long overdue No1 scorer here there and everywhere we have needed for many a long season !. Seems the chance for Jason Garrity to pick up the ride at Brummies has also fallen at the right time and everyone moves on with best wishes and thanks for their efforts. Having already secured the standout rider of the season in Danny Ayres; in Ben Barker we have an exciting signing that can make the difference especially away from the EWR. Josh; Jake; Ben; Danny that's a four that can mix it with the best of them. Throw in Stephan; Simon and Ryan and if we can stay fit we should be good for a play-off spot ! Well done the management for securing Ben Barker as a Scorpion. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IronScorpion Posted July 26, 2019 Report Share Posted July 26, 2019 We made the riding order at Redcar to counteract Wright at 2 & won(just ), & was going to keep the same riding order for the meeting v Leicester so who knows what the order will be Sunday. We do know, though, there will be a change at no1 from 1/8 as Allen will now occupy that position. Do we go with what we have done before with Auty at 5 with the reserves in 3 rides or do we go with rider pairings tried this year? 1. Allen 2. Ayres 3. Barker 4. Nielsen 5. Auty 6. Kinsley 7. Lambert 1. Allen 2. Nielsen 3. Ayres 4. Auty 5. Barker 6. Kinsley 7. Lambert Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScunnyDan Posted July 26, 2019 Author Report Share Posted July 26, 2019 Would keep Jake and Danny as a pairing, seem to ride well together.... i'd personally go for Jake, Danny, Josh, Stef, Ben, Ryan, Si but thats just my opinion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fozzie4388 Posted July 26, 2019 Report Share Posted July 26, 2019 Josh at 5 at Home and Ben at 5 away would be wisest thing to do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scunny1 Posted July 30, 2019 Report Share Posted July 30, 2019 (edited) Danny Ayres heroics in heat 19 of British Championship can be seen on sports page on Scunthorpe Live site. An awesome ride!!! Edited July 30, 2019 by scunny1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope he is back in quick time. I want him to get a chance with a big Club. One of my favourite riders. Of course i have only just realised this.

hulvik Posted August 12, 2019 Report Share Posted August 12, 2019 Big blow for Danny and not the way he'd have wanted to end the season. And from what I seen of Danny he'll feel he's letting both Scunthorpe and Mildenhall down which couldn't be further from the truth he as been a pleasure to watch and always gives his all. I look forward to seeing him race again at the EWR hopefully in sunny colours but if not I'm sure he'll get a very warm welcome back 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebaron Posted August 12, 2019 Report Share Posted August 12, 2019 Trying to think of a stop gap for Danny ? I keep thinking is it "Crazy Frog" time ? Rob's often flirted with the idea of Berge at Scunny ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
screm Posted August 12, 2019 Report Share Posted August 12, 2019 Scunthorpe will need to sign a rider to cover for Ayres, but maybe about to make more than one change I hear. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dandelion Posted August 13, 2019 Report Share Posted August 13, 2019 Yous should sign someone like Jonas Jeppesen or Michael Haertel on last season's 5.20 average... Get an exciting youngster back into British speedway (Jonas in particular) What about Zdenek Holub or Andreas Lyager? They were both pretty well connected to the club a few years back... Is Ashley Morris fit again? All would fit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do not think we will go down that route as he has a current Premiership club so will come on a converted PL 4.78 average of 7.17 for the Championship.

eric i Posted August 13, 2019 Report Share Posted August 13, 2019 Ashley Morris seems the obvious option if hes fit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
