The programme from today's abandoned meeting has been sent to Vatcher for filling in to decide the result.

I only wish we were in a position to buy the title, still their fans do deserve it they have always been there. No problems with getting beat just the underhanded manor.. Can McGregor & Vatcher referee football ? It is the only way Scotland will get anything on Saturday!!!

A number of Redcar fans wrote to Herr.Vatcher for his reasoning etc. No doubt from his replies the man is a total prat

Bit like football, the teams with the money always win out

No need to run any meetings, just send the programmes to be Vatchered , result complete, no injuries,no engine failures,no money to pay out , Maybe it could be a computer game .. VATCHERSWAY

Following Neil Vatchers ruling on the Redcar - Glasgow match can all promoters please send your heat details to Neil. In the event of an abandonment,no matter how many heats have been ridden , he will then fill in the remaining results to decide the meetings. This can also be done for a rain off to negate the need for a rescheduled meeting. With this method safety & costs are better , no more falls or engine failures , no need for track equipment etc.

One thing about this meeting both sets of fans were great , I expect that from the Boro but all thanks to the Glasgow fans who had a long drive home a lot later than they expected . You are welcome back at the Media Prima anytime.

Maybe it is Theo Pijper?

To be fair he is no worse than Dishwater , or indeed Ms Horsley & others. That heat 10 exclusion indicates that both of them need to Visit Specsavers.

As long as the tapes are not touched what difference does it make ? The rider makes the choice. With the current rules Ivan Mauger would never have won a world title , neither would Woffy or Nicki P

There can be no doubt that Glasgow were on their way to a deserved victory, my gripes are with the referee. The inconsistency is astonishing, All riders make movements, Last week a Scunthorpe rider pulled back after an attempted roll hence he was last away , hoisted by his own petard you may say, NO Race was restarted with a warning to MPT. Of course he finishes second in the re run so instead of a 5-1 we get a 4-2 . For me as long as the tapes are not touched let them go . The time wasted from start, 5 mins at the pit gate & restart is taking too long. When will speedway utilise common sense , go to one league , stop the du/ dd & get rid of guests......

RW has ridden many times at the media , never the favourite opponent of Matej Kus !,, !

As all the riders have to be there for Friday why is it that Ellis Perks cannot ride for Redcar on Thursday yet Dan Bewley can ride for Glasgow against Redcar ,Josh Bates rides for Sheffield &Rob Lambert for Newcastle at Ipswich ? Plus Perks will probably not get a ride. This will gift Glasgow 3 points as we are only allowed a national league 2 pointer.

You could always bring in Richard Hall , better than Payne or Etheridge especially at Berwick

Any reports from tonight ?

Should be close, hoping for at least 1 point

Redcar J Garrity C Garcia C Wright J B Andersen B Barker D Ayres E. Perks Scunthorpe M Palm Toft C Wilkinson L Kerr R Douglas J Auty T Aarinio J Bailey Bears back to full strength + Danny Ayre's Aarnio will still be a danger Should be a home win.

As a Redcar fan I am quite happy that he is only riding for us , his home form is sensational..

Middlesbrough / Redcar is still YORKSHIRE

REDCAR JASON GARRITY COTY GARCIA CHARLES WRIGHT JONAS B.ANDERSEN BEN BARKER RICHARD HALL TOM BACON WORKINGTON CRAIG COOK MASON CAMPTON TY PROCTOR JAMES SERGEANT THOMAS JORGENSEN MATT WILLIAMSON ROB SHUTTLEWORTH Going to be very close, reserves will play a big part , will Richard perform? Coty needs to have his gating gloves with him Will only be a couple of points either way .

This change had to be made, pity that Ellis is also injured . We really need Coty to fly on Thursday

Yes Ritchie would never do that to anyone ....

Bit of a whinge , for the first season fo many seasons we get a decent team together, Then injuries , when are we going to get an injury free run ?. Scunthorpe must feel the same !! Anyway looking forward to Thursday. UTB

It will be a top performance to keep them below 60

Doubt Busch will be fit before September, broken Ankle & torn ligaments
