<description><![CDATA[Scunthorpe Speedway have received a major boost ahead of the new season with Jotun Paints, the global company whose UK headquarters are just a couple of miles away from the Eddie Wright Raceway, having agreed to continue as the main sponsors of Scunthorpe&#8217;s National League side.

<link>http://scunthorpespeedway.com/news.php?subaction=showfull&amp;id=1267574591&amp;archive=</link>
<description><![CDATA[The Jotun Paints Scunthorpe Saints have secured the services of 21-year old Gareth Isherwood to complete their starting seven for the 2010 National League season.  Promoter Rob Godfrey is pleased Gareth has agreed to join the club and feels the Eddie Wright Raceway is just the place for him to progress.  &#8220;I remember him top-scoring here for Buxton in 2008 with about sixteen points.  He looked ready for the Premier League that night and whilst he didn&#8217;t have a great 2009 I&#8217;m sure he can get back to at least his 2008 level with the Saints&#8221;.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[The Jotun Paints Scunthorpe Saints are set to have a new team manager for the new season with former rider and coach, Stuart Parnaby, taking over the helm from Malcolm Vasey who has accepted the position of team manager with Stoke Potters in the Premier League.

They have got themselves a first class team manager and he will always be welcome at Scunthorpe".]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[The Jotun Paints Scunthorpe Saints have signed 18-year old former-Moto X rider Steven Worrall to fill one of their reserve berths.  St. Helens born and bred Worrall, who had been racing Moto X since the age of seven, saw speedway on TV and decided to try the sport on the clubâ&euro;&#8482;s mini-track last summer.  After enjoying the experience he attended the practices at the Eddie Wright Raceway and progressed through the clubâ&euro;&#8482;s amateur meetings towards the end of the season.  In only his third meeting he mixed it with Plymouthâ&euro;&#8482;s Paul Starke, fellow new-recruit to the Saints, Ashley Birks, and Mildenhallâ&euro;&#8482;s Matt Bates in the Open Class â&euro;˜Aâ&euro;&#8482; Final to highlight how far he had progressed in a short space of time.]]></description>

<title>Benji back with Saints</title>
<link>http://scunthorpespeedway.com/news.php?subaction=showfull&amp;id=1266452713&amp;archive=</link>
<description><![CDATA[Benji Compton, the Scorpions first signing when they were formed in 2005, is returning to the club for 2010 to help lead the Saints National League side.     Although only 23 years old he is set to become the oldest rider in a young side and Team Manager Malcolm Vasey feels his relative experience will help take the pressure off his younger team mates.  &#8220;Benji has done it all before for Scunthorpe at this level.  He was a mainstay of the championship winning sides of 2006 and 2007 and is a good character to have around the team&#8221;.]]></description>
