your obsession with Auty is odd!! At home once Adam is dialled in its about even and away Ellis is miles ahead of Auty!!! Auty hasnt even been good at Scunny this year 

Is there a doctor in the house.

I think you can after 14 days, not sure if Newcastle have already signed him though.

Not sure if rules make much difference anymore, Berwick for example seem to have been able to sign Kasper Anderson to replace Coty Garcia only for them to re-declare their team to include Coty Garcia which enabled them to have R/R at Scunthorpe last Friday and Berwick last night. Looks like they will re-declare their team again that will see Anderson replace Garcia, so Auty coming back into the Scunthorpe team is quite possible.

Wonder who Newcastle will be dropping because Clegg seems to have found some speed maybe Roynon ?

Not sue on averages but Newcastle are able to have R/R for Roynon, if that changes and Roynon drops to reserve that would obviously change things so replacing him now would make sense.

I thought the Roynon injury was only very short term but maybe more serious that initially thought was a nasty one I must say

If they have they’ve kept it very quiet. Would expect Adam to be back in a couple of weeks.

If the Scorpions are to make another change then it has to be Josh McDonald   .He’s on  a 4 point average  ; don’t know what the pts limit available to for a new rider would be . But is there any available riders what would improve us and ready to come to the tapes immediately ?

Roynon if he has been dropped? Was looking very good before his crash

If Scunthorpe Scorpions really have ambition, then Mr Godfrey has to bite the bullet again and make changes. Loyalty goes out of the window  and Josh Macdonald has to go, we cannot carry passengers. I don't care if he has come halfway around the world .

100 percent agree Adam Ellis was a statement of intention and now it needs to be followed up

I think a lot of the Crictism is unfair it was only 2 weeks ago. Josh got 9 from 4 rides against Glasgow (arguably the best team in the league). The kid had a big off last Sunday, His confidence will have taken a battering.

One rider who does seem to escape any Crictism is Simon Lambert the guys been riding since the mid 2000s now and when did he eve score high points regularly away from home (apart from 2 or 3 meetings in 2019 when at reserve). It's all well and good going on about winning home meetings but to be successful you have to win away too. Simon is the captain and should be leading by example.

As for anyone saying Josh Auty is better then Adam Ellis give your head a wobble.
