Redcar 2018


Recommended Posts

Kus seemed delighted to be back, and was a strong hint he was certainly not enjoying things under the old promotion..

Dont know a lot about Stewart, but from what Jitendra said he comes very highly recommended from Mark Lemon and Hugh Skidmore, indeed Lemon was close to naming him in the Belle Vue team this year. Jitendra seemed very excited indeed by him in particular. We all know what Busch can do around the MPA - we need an injury free year from him if possible. Will be strong at reserve all season, and in Barker we have a good number one. Relying a bit on Kus or JBA to really step up this year, but fairly pleased with the side.

Stop living in the past. What happened before should be left there. I personally wanted to see Tobi Busch and Jacob Bukhave in the team. Tobi said last year he wasn't coming back, but has changed his mind and will great to be seen this season. Kus coming in will be a good thing for some and not for others, but we are not riding these bikes. I wish him and the rest of the lads a very successful season and each team in the League have strived in their own way given the budgets that they ALL have to have that Elite team. I'm just looking forward to seeing good speedway again no matter who they race against.

Kus was desperate to leave Redcar  despite all the Havvy stuff , He went to our local rivals , Why don't Newcastle want him back after paying for him ? 

The only reason he has signed for Redcar is because NOBODY else wants him .   BAD BAD signing . We are now hoping the newbies , Stewart & MBA come good , don't rely on Kus , he will let us down as he did so many times before ..

As usual totally wrong. Matej wanted away from Havvy and in fact moved out of his house I believe. We fancied Kus and signed him. The following year we already had Steve Worrall and went for the big one Robert Lambert. So it was either Matej or Ludde and it was decided to go for Ludde as he brings more with him. This year Matej is riding in Poland so no Sundays for him, and he has gone on loan to your new promotion.

But don't let facts get in the way.

Good luck Matej this year.

Last season was such an inspiring new start, lots of good British stars and a young British rider who turned out to be one of the finds of the season. Now we have six foreigners! Made up of past their sell by date or the totally untried. I can understand the desire to create assets but this looks like a Berwick side.

I'm not sure it was a desire for new assets as much as we were told to acquire some new assets. 

Cautiously optimistic, and we should have enough to win most home meetings. Will always be strong at reserve, although perhaps missing that top end strength. Will be a lot resting on Barkers shoulders. 

It's clear Matej splits opinion, I like Matej but think second heat leader is a big ask. That being said, a happy and fully fit Kus could score very well at home at least. 

Be good to see how MBA and Stewart go. Just hope fans give this side a chance.

Lacking firepower and too many ifs and buts. If the untried riders prove to be sensational then who knows what might happen? Otherwise it looks like a Redcar team of old.

worky lack a big hitting no 1 ,as do Redcar . 

 

but i can see both teams scaring the pants of some teams away from home .

 

it didnt work for Glasgow last year !  (won jack)

long live the mediocre teams .

On the surface does look a particularly strong team, but could be a side with some potential, and it maybe next season when they really kick on.

Barker did look last season to be getting something like his best and can fulfil and strong number 1 role.

The younger Andersen brother is rated the better of the brothers in Denmark, and personally I rate older one so he has the potential to get some points in for the team.

The young Aussie has been doing well in Oz will be interesting to see how he progresses.

Not too sure about Kus very inconsistent and never seems to do much if he does not gate.

The other two Pijper and Busch are what they are and will do a job for the team. 

Probably more mid table team rather than play off contenders but next season with a nucleus of riders who mount a serious challenge.

Any News on the 'Bears'? :unsure: :unsure: :blink:

No Posts on here since 27/01/18. :shock:

Just counting down the days to the new season. Not a lot else to say really. Fairly optimistic that the Bears will shock a few this season. Will be great to be back at the "TRACK OF THE YEAR" :)
