For this Thursday`s meeting with Peterborough I`m hearing that Aaron Summers guests in place of the injured Ben Barker with Josh Auty guesting in place of Thomas Jorgensen who will be riding for Kings Lynn at Swindon. 

It's to be hoped Summers turns up in the right mood then, he's been very up and down for Berwick,  Auty on the other hand has looked much better this season, it would be nice if he starts to fulfil the promise of his early racing days.

Two guests for red car this week ? One supporter not going if correct 

To be fair to Redcar there`s not to much they could do about it, obviously Ben Barker is injured and Jorgensen meeting for Kings Lynn at Swindon will take priority over the Redcar one.

I would much rather see one guest, rider replacement and where possible give the number 8 a ride ,so that I am watching my team rather than a championship league select.

Surely you would rather watch two seven man teams.

Fans refuse to go when they’ve had to use a NL guest in place of a heatleader and now you’re refusing coz they’ve found a like for like replacement, can’t please everyone, if I were a fan, Id rather turn up and see 2 suitable guests in place of the  heatleaders than a NL replacement meaning they are a lot weaker

Last night, against Peterborough i saw Dimitri berge ride for the first time. Apart from his first ride he was excellent and seems to like riding wide. Now, partner  him with a rider who likes to ride tight and we have the ideal pairing for team riding which is not only a joy to watch but is also a potential 5-1, or at worst a 4-2. In heat 12 he was paired with Nathan greaves and for a while they were team riding until Dm sped off and we had a 4-2.  I remember the crazy Jack Millen ( now, there was a showman who was a great rival of Frank auffret ) team riding with Dave gatenby at Sunderland  to great effect. I am sure that speed way as a spectacle would benefit if more team riding took place rather than riders just taking off leaving their partner behind. Obviously it wouldn't always work but worth a try.

Without sounding daft shouldn’t we sign Worrall 

I doubt he'd come, what with his past history with Redcar and the fact that he's now probably used to getting more money than they can offer, his form has been very patchy so he'd fit right in, in that respect.

He came back and got injured in his second ride against Scunthorpe. Still suffering from the after effects of that fall apparently.

Yet rode two days later in the Budesliga for Straslund & scored 11 ( 1,3,2,3,2), so where & when he did become further incapacitated?
