I was standing at the bar on the back straight when Roynon fell. Complin hadn't steamed past he hit Roynon who was maybe going slower into the bend. No malice but Complin took him off.

The meeting is being streamed now. £10. Check out the Bears website.

Racing restarted after 90 min or so delay. Let's hope there are no more delays for the people who are there!

Obviously not moved on far enough. If this meeting is abandoned then that will be two in the opening weeks of the Championship season. (Birmingham the other). The BSPL need to sort something out regarding sufficient medical cover. These situations can't be allowed to persist. A few tracks have two ambulances which decreases the chances of a lengthy delay dramatically. Should be mandatory in what is supposed to be a professional sport.

They used to regularly years ago.

Another example of why there should be two ambulances at every meeting. A policy employed by Redcar this season.

Any signs of BWD making a return or is he out for the season?

Ermolenko wanted to design is as a bigger Wolverhampton but departed the project before work on the track commenced I read somewhere.

Just put transponders on the bikes then there would be no argument who got to the finish line first. You would also get accurate race times. They've had them on the karts on the racetrack next to Redcar speedway for years.

There are riders available such as Sedgeman, Kheler etc. There also seems to be a lack of interest in finding new talent from abroad. I partly blame that on the over abused guest system. It's far cheaper to use 'borrowed' riders that are already in this country than do the hard work to bring a new talent over. There will be foreign talents especially the younger riders wanting to ride over here.

Clegg, Wright and Starke looked to have really scored well tonight it's the other four that let the team down.

Quiet night tonight for Bradley Wilson Harris.

Doesn't William Lawson normally ride Newcastle well? Could do a job at reserve although I think Newcastle's main concerns are further up the riding order i.e a number 1.

Watched the stream and thought Congreve's race pace was ok but he is woeful out of the start. His race is over by the 1st bend due to his trapping. If he can sort that out he may have a chance of making it.

Well not in GB anyway but I live in hope.

Doesn't make it right. Sometimes it's just a lack of effort in searching for a new rider. Also no doubt comes down to cost. Cheaper to pay a guest already in GB than say bringing over a new Dane. Does nothing for the credibility of the sport at all though.

Shouldn't have been allowed. Joke sport!

What about the credibility of the sport? Teams shouldn't be allowed to use guests for a lengthy period

How convenient.

Thought Riss would have been excluded in the Gilkes clash. Ref got it wong. Thought Harris beat Ker to the line line but it was difficult to see from the head on camera angle. Not sure. Harris clearly took Gilkes off on turn one. The Redcar riders weren't involved so shouldn't have been punished. The ref could have took the easy option with first bend bunching but it wasn't the Redcar riders fault. Ref got it right.

It's a shame Newcastle couldn't see fit to host Robbo's meeting with him being a Diamonds legend. He only had 1 stunted season at Redcar (and a short spell at Middlesbrough) but he has been a great servant to the sport and deserves his farewell meeting regardless.

I think they will struggle AT Brough Park!

60 - 29. Newcastle did better than I expected to be fair.

Has the potential to be a cricket score in Redcar's favour this meeting.
