Not going to happen. Even though Purates are weaker with the loss of Stefan, we are still too strong for Redcar to turn us over at Poole.

Unless it rains... then anyone can beat Poole.  Tail is far too vulnerable when track is wet ;) 

Second easiest win of the season for Scunny last night, after a thrashing of Kent, before Batchelor joined the team. Pirates nothing special and can be beaten!  No one clear favourite in this league - if I was forced to pick one, I'd pick Leicester. 

Good to see you last night and hope to see you back in the play-offs, so you can get a proper appreciation of the superb Scunny track.

Complain about the track as much as you like simple fact is in the most part Poole were utter crap!!!

Douglas scored more than Schlein would of, Basso and Cook were terrible and the rest were about what you would expect them to be 

Probably have bigger fish to fry and as a neutral it was a poor meeting as Poole where not going to risk any injuries.

It was but that was because Poole were awful out of the gate and not fast enough on track!! It was a poor meeting because Poole were rubbish… Basso, Cook would still be a mile behind no matter what the track

OK it would take a monumental effort from Redcar to win at Poole, who haven’t lost at home this season. Poole are a better and stronger team than Redcar. Whilst there is a chance, it’s a slim one and Poole would be well up for it if it means the difference between finishing top or not. I will be the first to congratulate Redcar if they win at Wimborne Road. But even though we are now weaker, we still have enough through the rest of the team. 

It’s not arrogance. It’s belief in the team.

But if it rains, will Poole take the safe option?

 

You hate me, don't you?

But you weren't talking just about last night. You said about them being rubbish at other tracks which obviously is nowhere near the truth and is what I was replying to, considering Redcar fans raved about Basso when we were there and also Cook at Glasgow, those have been their stand out tracks for each of them. Also Hume was good at Edinburgh. All tracks that will be in the playoffs too, so that helps. 

Excuse me but if you are top of the league then you must be quite good! Sorry if you don't like it but not really my problem.

My first meeting for 2 years less 2 days due to, reasons, spoiled by wet weather quite a bit but still enjoyed it.  Hye, it's speedway !  So, with some EWR speakers still a bit hit & miss half heard Rob Godfrey say something to effeect of "our local MP who has helped us before & will help us with this also............."  Anyone know what he was referring to, methinks possibly a visa issue with Tero Aarnio ?...

Yeah he was saying that they had to prove something about Tero’s visa and local MP holly mumby Croft has stepped in to help prove it and it’s sped the process up a lot and he also said she is a big supporter of speedway in Scunthorpe and supports the club

Unless I have missed something that would either imply that:

 

A] Tero's visa expired end of August, or

B] He's been riding on the wrong paperwork all year and just been found out.

 

Neither reflect well on the Scunny promotion

I’m not an expert on this but Rob said that they’ve had issues since the start of the year and 3 months to sort it or something ?
