The away meeting at Scunthorpe on Friday night became unexpectedly dramatic for the Stoke Potters, who saw both Claus Vissing and Hyněk Štichauer taken to the hospital after falls in heats four and fifteen respectively.
In addition two spectators went the same way after the bike of a third Stoke rider, Taylor Poole, went over the safety fence in heat ten - luckily without the rider taking injury.
Claus Vissing was released from hospital with just a sprained ankle and will probably be back on the bike again in a short time. Neither he nor Štichauer will however be riding in the returnmeeting at Stoke on Saturday, and it is still uncertain, whether they will be ready for the away meeting at Newport on Sunday.
The Friday night drama ended up with a 51-39 defeat.
