Think you need a new manager but who is around who could do a good job under ROBS thumb

 

Don't think been under Robs thumb has anything too do with poor decision making during a meeting as Rob is usually centre green doing the presenting.

Definitely need a new manager who can motivate the riders and not make stupid decisions like constantly putting Phillips out in heat 1 when using rider replacement but the classic one was last year when Carl Wilkinson had 2 poor last places and was then given the black and white helmet,  crazy, Scunny haven't had a decent manager since they won the league in 2012.

Some would argue that it is a good move, as it would get rid of his three rides quicker.

There seems to be little mention of the fact that Danny was coming back after a serious injury (bearing in mind the doctors told him to forget about riding again after the injury occurred). Some take longer to get back to a level they were at (he was averaging over 4 in the PL when the injury happened).  The only thing you can have a go at him (or indeed the Scunthorpe Management) for is he came back too quickly at the higher level and maybe should have concentrated on the NL for the season.

on the flip side of that he used to nearly get lapped in heat 1 then be out in heat 2 great confidence booster for a struggling rider. Also I have mentioned numerous times He was under no pressure to score as the team was strong enough to win with 6 men. The loss of Worrall early on didn't help but with being able to use the other 5 as rr or a quality guest again made little difference to what was expected of Danny. The loss of Stefan Nielsen was the big one as he was scoring well above his average when injury struck but this did leave the team needing points from reserve at the same time Gino had his crash whilst with the USA  and that's were the problem became more acute as points were needed . Unfortunately they never came and in my opinion Scunny should of made a double swap for Nielsen and Phillips but hey ho its gone now so lets move on

six loons and a 2 pointer  simple as that

This post makes me smile, Kasper Andersen will more than likely be with Sheffield. Kyle Howarth will more than likely be with Sheffield.
