What has happened to Jordan Palin?

Kennedy started at reserve & scored lots, Lambert dropped to reserve & scored even more. Now Palin at reserve & scoring no better?

Yeah it is becoming concerning for Jordan seems to be having a few bike issues which is possibly affecting his confidence

Hopefully Palin can get sorted soon but it isn't going very well. Between him, Kemp and Bickley, it's been a lot of expectation for very little return. 

Kemp is averaging almost 2 points above his starting average, while Bickley has fallen slightly he's much the same standard as last year. Palin definitely fallen more than the others.

Never disputed that, but when you look at the hype when they were all 14/15 compared to now then it's fair to say all of them have been underwhelming in differing levels.

With us now looking like we have a double blow with Tero and Jake injured anyone know how long for and if changes are likely ?

NHS says 6-8 weeks for fractured wrist, but Speedway riders it probably means 4 weeks! Don't know what injuries Tero has and how long he will be side lined.

What's happened to the Scorpions website now a days? It uses to be updated regularly but now it doesn't seem to have been updated at all since the Poole meeting?

I think it was Tosh who was criticizing another club a few weeks ago (Birmingham I think) about not having anything on it about a meeting 24 hrs before it happened but it's less then 11 hrs before Scunthorpe travel to Berwick and it's not even mentioned

For away meetings they usually don’t do much

Still. Tero got injured earlier in the week. Jake Thursday, they could have easily mentioned something on there before putting the preview on less then 10 hrs before the start of the meeting and trying to not make people notice by putting yesterday's date on the post like they just have done lol

My post was also about the fact a Scunthorpe fan criticized a team for not posting about a meeting a day before when their own team website is just as bad

The guest was racing for his own club last night.

Strange that you reply to a post & delete your other. :blink:

Maybe Rob Peasley has been working & doing other things or waiting for the official confirmation from the promoters for tonight rather than posting twice or more times with changing information.

So two heat leaders down for at least a month, maybe nearer two months?  Have we got a plan to get us out of this hole? Anyone out there worth a punt at this critical time trying to get a top six spot?

Yeah it’s concerning given our slip to Plymouth at home which could prove costly come the end of the season and other rivals such as Oxford and Berwick strengthening I really don’t think there any options out there however to help us

At last they are both in our top 3 averaged riders so 2 guests can be used.

At home I think R/R for one will be stronger than a lot of guests in the league
