I'm confused as I thought we were talking about Rew, but their names are similar! Mentioned Rowe coz he is one the names being banded about along side Kemp and Thompson, i do apologise Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought it was in response to Rew being based in Poland. Though I stick by their names are similar so gets confusing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skidder1 Posted March 7, 2023 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2023 Nobody mentioning Morley any more then? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Shovlar Posted March 7, 2023 Report Share Posted March 7, 2023 3 hours ago, Skidder1 said: Nobody mentioning Morley any more then? Not really a suitable replacement. Would definitely place Drew Kemp and Thompson well above Morley. Rew clearly the best option but probably unachievable given the short notice. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also Keynan Rew is a brilliant rider and one of the world's top prospects... he would tear the championship apart imo... he'd be an 8 point rider by the end of the season I think you are spot on. I expect him to do really well in the Premiership too. ———— As some others have said now, Rew rides for Gdansk in Poland in 2023. They will ride on Saturdays and Sundays mostly I believe. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw Ben Barkers bad crash a few years ago and he wanted to get up but they made him stay still and put him on a stretcher to the ambulance. Surely this should have been done the case of Jack's crash also. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No paramedic would have allowed Jack to walk. Scunny haven't done wrong but the rules need tightening. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They definitely do need tightening I just hope Jack makes a full recovery and it doesn't turn out a worse case scenario when he said the following :- "There's still a chance that even with this brace I could be walking along and lose feeling or end up paralysed but at the moment, I've got to be positive and as the riders have said, just look to get myself fit before I make any decisions about riding."

lewy Posted March 9, 2023 Report Share Posted March 9, 2023 Am I the only person that thinks the safety fence at scunny needs to be looked at,only a matter of time until someone hits the concrete behind it and receives life changing injuries or worse!!

Jacks version of events is very different to mr Godfreys statement in today’s speedway star. scunny are however changing their air fence to a polyfoam fence like kings lynn Glasgow and Berwick which should be much better than the current air fence. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Won’t make one ounce of difference , if it lifts, it’s the Armco that they hit that causes the majority of injuries. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skidder1 Posted March 9, 2023 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2023 A double change is still a potential option according to Danny Ford in today's Speedway Star, as well as a straight replacement for Jack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Way to narrow it down! Do you have to name a full 1-7 at P+P or do they have til April 5th? Imagine if we did a Plymouth and had guests for the season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Foamfences don't lift! They are 'way safer than air-fences. The news that Scunny are upgrading to foam is very, very welcome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't stop teams being allowed a guest in case there's no one out there, so in theory a team could use guests from their 2nd match till the end of the season! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I think it would be really out of order to drop a rider in March with no other team spots available, especially as there are options available for a straight swap for Thomas! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
