Scunthorpe United – Where your voice matters.
Coming to the Attis Arena on 16th April, join reigning British Superbike Champion Kyle Ryde and his returning OMG Yamaha teammate and former champion Bradley Ray for a look ahead to what promises to be another thrilling 2025 season.
Following the success of our ‘Fast Orange Reunion’ with Rob McElnea and James Whitham last month, we are excited to be bringing two more of the UK’s most famous racing names to the home of Scunthorpe United Football Club for an evening of light-hearted chat and entertainment, hosted by our CEO and TNT Sport’s Superbike presenter Matt Roberts.
Ryde was crowned 2024 BSB Champion in a thrilling finale at Brands Hatch last October, when he overcame Tommy Bridewell on the final lap of a breathtaking battle to take the title by a single point.
His longtime rival and friend Ray returns to domestic racing this year after two years spent competing in the World Superbike Championship, and he has his targets firmly set on dethroning Ryde and reclaiming the crown that he won back in 2022.
The pair are much loved by British bike racing fans for their fun and down-to-earth nature, so it promises to be another entertaining evening before the serious business starts at Round 1 of the British Superbike Championship at Oulton Park on 3rd-5th May.
Tickets for the event are just £20 each, and can be purchased in-store or via sufctickets.com.
Guarantee your copy of "Unity", Scunthorpe United's printed programme for the Iron v Southport this Saturday.
Scunthorpe United is delighted to offer a printed programme as it returns to the Attis Arena for the 2024-25 season.
Not buying in advance? Our 52-page production will still be available to purchase in our club shop, and with sellers around the ground on matchday.
With first team manager Andy Butler's latest set of notes, a preview of our opposition, and an interview with defender Michael Kelly, we also review the last couple of weeks, and look at the stats so far.

The club has taken the decision to return to a printed programme after a number of supporters expressed a desire for it to return. Please note that we are attempting to make this venture financially viable, and the only way a printed programme will continue is for supporters to support us by purchasing it.
