The ones stood near us done nothing but complain, cash only no spirits and not to mention they think they don’t have to queue and just try and jump it!!

Horrible entitled minority giving the rest of them a bad name! Expand Can't comment on the above as i didn't see any of that ,but myself and my mates had no issue with the cash only policy as prior warning had been given. My first visit at Northside yesterday and it is a tidy setup, very impressed enjoyable day out and will certainly return when we are down later in the season. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s Cook, Kildemand, Klindt, Batchelor, Riss, Kerr, Flint, Castagna all missing with 2 more riders to find at 4 hours notice. Along with no Brennan, Ben Cook, Pickering, Nicholls, Schlein from previous seasons. Hope there’s a good crowd like there was yesterday at the GTS Tyres Arena. Expand That's why I never went to the pairs yesterday & not going to Scunthorpe today as these meetings should be run later in the season like they used to be Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheWellBehavedWorrall Posted April 6 Report Share Posted April 6 (edited) First time seeing a meeting a Scunthorpe and it’s a mad track. It’s almost like the bike is never straight; just skidding round and round. No-one is safe in front; every rider is vulnerable. It’s made for a decent meeting. That move from Harris in his first ride was unbelievable. He’s worth the admission cost alone. I actually thought the Edinburgh rider to his left moved slightly, putting him off in his last one. Luke Killeen on co-commentary is painful.😂 Edited April 6 by TheWellBehavedWorrall 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheWellBehavedWorrall Posted April 6 Report Share Posted April 6 Great move from Charles Wright there. Harris looked very slow in his last ride; he barely hung on to second in ahead of Lambert and had Kemp’s engine not gone, he’d have been a poor third. Howarth is hanging in there, but Wright made light work of him there and it looks like a completely different Dan Thompson to the one who appeared at Armadale on Friday night.

TheWellBehavedWorrall Posted April 6 Report Share Posted April 6 How is the rider on the inside so far in front of the rider on the outside gate at the first bend, every single time? I can’t put my finger on it. I’ve never seen that at any other track. Another great ride from Charles Wright. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
