One for the future. The boy did well. Brilliant gate in the final, but was partially blocked 1st bend, but turned back down the straight and they never saw him again. Some good racing in the heats and final, just beating the stadium deadline 10.00pm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Winditon Posted August 30, 2018 Report Share Posted August 30, 2018 Absolutely shocking from Barker tonight at Redcar. No intention to turn left and T-boned Tero.

A match going one way, then a situation that changed the entire tide of the meeting. Normally in any sport these things are called turning points, sadly for the sport of speedway tonight, with the exception of a very few Redcar fans who appeared to cheer the event, that turning point was a blatant attempt to knock off a rider well in control of the race. As a team who have defied all sceptics this season and really stood tall it’s a shame to end the night without a point, but the thing that makes speedway great is it’s love for proper racing, true racing, and the diamonds stood tall tonight. The only thing left to say about Redcar speedway is, congratulations....... you had 6 riders riding tonight who rode fair, but sadly it took a B.B. intervention to kickstart the team, but kickstart they did. The fact they were rejuvenated isn’t the problem, it’s the 1 rider who continues to jeopardise riders safety daily that’s the issue. Well done Ben barker! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have already stated on the match thread that I thought BB was in the wrong and should have been excluded. That said the match was only 6 heats old therefore I don't agree that it was going one way as I still think we would have won even if Tero had not been injured and ridden out all his rides. With regards to BB , I haven't seen him jeopardize a riders safety all season, for a start his bikes were pretty crap for the early part and he wasn't in contention in most races to cause any conflict! Bit over the top saying it's something that happens on a daily basis. Can understand George English's annoyance over the incident, perhaps, in the heat of the moment, he forgot about how he supported Richie Worrell over similar incidents a few seasons ago?

Not even the same league, so get over it. At least Diamonds fans weren''t wishing a death wish on Barker, unlike the terrace bar crowd were in Richie's case !!!( and Andrew Tully's as well) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The general opinion seems to be that he was to blame but I made no mention of him or the incident. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought it was Barker's fault but I would never suggest that it was a deliberate action designed to take Aarnio out. Barker simply lost control. To imply that it was intentional is to believe that one rider is perfectly prepared to see another get injured - possibly seriously, possibly worse than that. Reckless, maybe. Lethal, never.
