Eastbourne v Scunthorpe 24/7


Recommended Posts

Not many Option's for the Scorpions really for Ellis with Leicester vs Poole that rules out most the obvious candiates.

Craig Cook, Ostergaard or Sam Masters both fit but i doubt they'll fancy the Edinburgh to Eastbourne to Glasgow Schedule.

Chris Harris is with Brennan and Ellis in France.

The only options i can think of what could do a job are Charles Wright (Although he's nursing a slight knock and probably wouldn't risk a guest booking) or Scott Nicholls (He rode at Eastbourne last Sunday for Leicester so does that make him ineligible?)

Erik Riss, Jake Allen, Michael Palm Toft or Ben Barker are the other options but not sure they'd be any good at Eastbourne

Scott Nicholls rode as the oppositions no1 last week & I think the guesting rule only applies to home no1's when riding again within the 7 or 8 day period.

Ben Barker has similar issues to CC, UO & SM as at Redcar & Newcastle Friday & Sunday although he does like to travel over the years. Great guest where ever he has been.

Riss could be an option as he is due there with Birmingham on 7th Aug so would give himself track time.

They are having a mare tbh, every meeting they are arranging theres someone important missing and the opposition strengthen .. i reckon you might be right coz one more home loss and the play offs are out the window .

Out of the window and flown away already I fear.

Not that Pijper will be a miss at a track like Eastbourne but it's very coincidental he's 'Injured' the same night his lad is in the World 250cc final in Germany I'm sure he wasn't too injured to travel to that 

All in the best interests of the sport !

“Many a true word spoken in jest” 

Thats what I thought when I read     the match preview by Trevor Gear       who states “ good to get back to normality” 

Yup , normal it is , R/R and a gust for both sides. . 

This week EB have the rub of the green with Scunny opting out of a decent gust for their number 1.

Met Office show fair weather for EB so 3 points in the bag tonight.

Massive amount of points to replace our number 1 and we go r/r!!!   All we can hope for is a rain off, pretty poor from our promotion.

Perhaps rob wants all saturday tracks to change race day so he can have his choice of guest!
