scunny1 Posted August 27, 2022 Report Share Posted August 27, 2022 Don't bite the hand that feeds you. Think a few riders may have burnt their bridges for guest money riding for the Scorpions in the future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You would think some riders would want to be more active only getting in 1 league(either) meeting a week to keep race sharp. Riders know what Rob pays & they DO GET PAID. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another poster criticises Godfrey but he is the Chairman & not the only one to make decisions. Someone also says 2 wrongs don't make a right. I will openly admit I am not a big fan of Rob Godfrey, however all these comments suggesting as chairman he makes decisions to suit himself and the Scorpions are tiresome and quite ridiculous! 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LisaColette Posted August 27, 2022 Report Share Posted August 27, 2022 Just now, Jaizer said: No he rode for rawicz scored 4 points while Lawson was guesting for him at Leicester Okay, thanks. There was one where he went over but just watched I think (maybe it was when he was doing his treatment over there). But can't remember when that was.

Jaizer Posted August 27, 2022 Report Share Posted August 27, 2022 Bit frustrating that Harris, flint and potentially Brennan (not one to refuse a guest booking) could've been in this meeting but are in a pointless European pairs event getting spanked off the top nations second strings. Why when no Ellis take a another Berwick rider as well. Take howarth or worrall seen as Leicester no meeting!! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Said he would not ride tonight if he could not help the Bears by defeating the Scorpions" This why I posted about guests especially about Andersen when he guested for us twice scoring poor/average seemingly not really trying then scoring well (8+3 from 5 rides) for his parent club.

mikebaker Posted August 27, 2022 Report Share Posted August 27, 2022 Jason Edwards did the opposite. 10 paid 12 helping Edinburgh to a 4 point away win at Brum. Then 2 weeks later did not score in Bears 50-40 defeat at Perry Barr. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IronScorpion Posted August 27, 2022 Report Share Posted August 27, 2022 Kasper Andersen was I rider that I picked out to be a 2nd string for us pre season because of his scores around the EWR. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikebaker Posted August 27, 2022 Report Share Posted August 27, 2022 Jake Allens decision to go back to Scunny, wrong imo. Has had a terrible season. Definitely needs to move away from there in 2023. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryan Douglas just says hes too injured to ride, he travels to Poland just in case he feels better on sunday. They went to the GP!! However I don't know if Ryan is riding in Poland tomorrow.

Bandit59 Posted August 27, 2022 Report Share Posted August 27, 2022 Anyway back to the meeting, good to finish the season on a win even if it didn't move us up the league , thanks to Richard Lawson great choice of guest,and Jye back to early season form,Jonas done really well considering he had the full amount of rides do hope we can entice him and maybe his brother next year looking forward to the Bullets playoffs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
