They need to stop having 2-4 week gaps at home with no scheduled fixtures and it should be fine. The BSN cup would obviously be scrapped freeing up more dates for league racing.

Good job the real Douglas never turned up!

Maybe not a bad idea as numerous times this season teams have been stronger when they have had injuries and brought in guests. Horses for courses. I can't think of any other sport where a team suffering several injuries are stronger apart from speedway.

Embarrassing end to the season for Redcar!

Redcar will struggle to win the meeting never mind the tie.

I agree but apart from that it's a great product.

Poor crowd numbers at Redcar tonight. No surprise there though with Redcar out of the play offs, poor weather, running on a Wednesday, the meeting being on BSN and many fans still angry over Redcar's capitulation by accepting the Sunday date at Oxford with a depleted team. Season fell apart like a cheap watch!

He didn't even get a ride. Pathetic situation!

Oh well, if only Charles was told, no you can't go to Poland! Never mind.

Redcar have their super team out at Oxford on Sunday though. Keep the faith!

Redcar need a big result tonight as they've already forfeited the away leg at Oxford by agreeing to go there on a Sunday with so many riders unavailable! What a joke!

What a joke and a slap in the face for all the Redcar fans that have followed their team this season! Why Redcar accepted this Sunday date is beyond me!

Check Erik's Facebook page he's due to be riding in the long track of nations meeting on the 24th. He has also pulled out of Robbo's meeting.

Let's hope not then maybe the clowns running the sport might actually do something positive to remedy the situation for next season!

What like changing the rules at the drop of a hat. Does that happen in British speedway?

Don't forget all these Bears riders will be missing legitimately. Poland and long track comes first remember! Nothing wrong with it the Charles Wright situation taught us that!

Riss also scheduled to be riding in the long track nations meeting on the 24th. If all these riders are missing I can't get my head around why it's taking place on this date or why anyone is expected to pay £20 to watch it. Farce, joke sport!

We must be looking at different forums/media platforms then.

Vast majority? More like a 50/50 split.

We? 4 guests!

I'm sick of people like you! Why does GB bend over backwards to Poland, he is a British rider? It's because of people with your attitude the sport is on its knees in this country!!!!!!!!!!! Wasn't the Redcar v Glasgow fixture rescheduled over 4 weeks ago?

What a load of tosh! Taking up the offer to ride in Poland for a club he's never represented before! He should be riding for Redcar on Sunday. Lost all respect for Redcar and Wright! Joke sport!

Wright has abandoned the team that owns his contract in GB and should get a 28 day ban!

Interesting.

After following the sport for nearly 40 years I've struggled to take team speedway seriously in GB for a while. Riders doubling up and down and guesting all over the place! It's quickly becoming a case of just having any rider in the meeting to get it on irrespective of club affiliations! Sad times.
