So how many points are remaining. Can’t see anywhere what the first 3 tally is. 

Go to

scroll down to Gambo post. I think he does the averages for the BSPLtd/SCB so take his word.

Do not forget to -2.5% for the British riders.

You won’t care - you’ll be bitching at them from over the water

And you can hide behind a name on a forum.

For what it's worth the team Scunthorpe have built is probably the best chance they'll have since 2012 to win the league. Could have had an improvement in 2 or 3 areas but least they'll be competitive

As expected signing and undoes a lot of the good work gone before it, if they do finish with MPT, Allen and Douglas will be a good side but could of been better 

What is your problem with Simon Lambert and do you go regular to  the

Eddie wright Raceway ???

Can’t work out your dislike for our Captain that’s all  , I admire any rider that cocks his leg over on a bike for my entertainment 

And phones around to see if he can get someone to ride for the team

I dont dislike him but Scunthorpe should be looking for better if they have ambitions of winning the league, just because i think that doesnt mean i dislike him!! 
 

Also and again they dont ride for our entertainment.. they ride because they make a decent living from it

From been a small lad of 5 or 6  been taken to the Boulevard by my Dad  to watch the Hull Vikings and the smell of methanol  ,I was instantly hooked . Back then I wanted crashes and spills  . Fast forward  50 yrs  and sadly losing my Dad in March this year I’m still going to my local track which is now Scunthorpe  and follow them up and down  the country this season. the last two meetings away to Redcar and then onto Berwick 24 hrs later  as a single driver  because it’s a sport I love and if we don’t support it we will lose it . Look at the uncertainty at Mildenhall  now.  we might lose another great  club . When I worked in London approx 5 yrs ago I visited  Swindon , Ipswich ,Rye House and Poole from my London Digs ,

Look at that small list and we have lost 50 % of them teams  so  what I’m trying to say is it’s fine been a supporter on a forum but if we don’t get numbers up we will lose Speedway on mass . I’m not a lover of individual meetings but love the team aspect of Speedway so let’s not knock our sport and get to your local tracks more regularly 

Support what you say completely only thing to add in the current climate £20 to watch a meeting is to some people a lot of money but you have to ask yourself if you can afford £20 plus petrol and you love speedway then go.If your opinion is it's too expensive that's fine but quantify that by does the money really matter ? then 1 you can afford it and 2 would you enjoy it,if one them those is true then go.

You have often said that you are not a supporter of Scunthorpe & going by your other posts on threads, NOT a supporter of speedway. Why bother?
