I think it was brought in to prevent riders throwing a sickie when due to visit a track they didnt like! Regulation is:- 010.5(H) sick or carrying a non-speedway injury, the rider must immediately inform the SCB and their club. A Medical Certificate must be supplied to the SCB within 48 hours of the sickness/injury occurring in which case the rider will receive a mandatory 7 days suspension of his SCB Registration from the day of the first meeting missed 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

foreverblue Posted July 22, 2022 Report Share Posted July 22, 2022 Where is Trackrat? Why isn't he on this thread complaining this meeting should be cancelled with Scunthorpe fielding such a weak team again!! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Shovlar Posted July 22, 2022 Report Share Posted July 22, 2022 Good enjoyable meeting to watch as a neutral. Thought Lions would steam roller Scunny but they were very poor and lost it. Some good battles. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FishersGate Posted July 22, 2022 Report Share Posted July 22, 2022 As a lions fan I'm happy. A little bit concerned of Joe Thomsons form but he is still young and plenty of time to improve. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IainB Posted July 22, 2022 Report Share Posted July 22, 2022 1 thing still puzzles me though... why as a camera operator would you pan away from a couple of riders swinging handbags? Unbelievable! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScunnyDan Posted July 23, 2022 Author Report Share Posted July 23, 2022 Quality meeting that, nice to be in the crowd for a change too! Ryan Douglas, what a guy, us Scorpions fans can only hope his signature is already inked for 2023.. Zaine Kennedy man of the match for me, very unlucky with his puncture in heat 14.. Adam Roynon also put in loads of effort for little reward, effort goes a long way at Scunthorpe and I'm sure he'll become a crowd favourite in the coming weeks.. It does take two teams to make a great meeting - and fair play to the Lions, Howarth, Lawson and Worrall were on it.. was also pleasing to see Max Clegg in the points after some online criticism 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shockster Posted July 23, 2022 Report Share Posted July 23, 2022 My first time at Scunthorpe last night and I was really impressed with everything. Loved the track. Basic facilities, but who cares. The track was great and the riders performed. Great advert and will be back sooner rather than later. Zaine Kennedy def Man of the match but was a solid team performance from Scunthorpe and they deserved the win. Think the score slightly flattered Leicester, but you need 2 good teams to make a good match. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Johnson Posted July 23, 2022 Report Share Posted July 23, 2022 Just wondering who Scunnys team manager was. not heard of him before, someone said hes connected to Kings Lynn? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
