Bellers101 Posted April 8, 2018 Report Share Posted April 8, 2018 The stock car barrier behind the air fence won't have helped Steve. Good job we have air fences now as could have been much worse. Racing incident. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good job we have air fences now as could have been much worse. Racing incident. Think you're spot on with that, saw a Development League meeting there two or three years ago where the rider went into the air bag more or less in the same place on the track, although in that instance the bike went in first and the air bag went straight up and away, the rider followed and hit the solid wall, sustaining injuries as a result. There's just no give behind the air bags, not ideal, but that's the design of the track! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IronScorpion Posted April 9, 2018 Report Share Posted April 9, 2018 Maybe it does look like a racing incident, maybe Stevie took the narrow line in to bend 1 thinking he was in front & maybe other things happened during the race forcing Stevie to reply on social media, like he did.

No one was 'clamped' on the kerb. Watch the video. The point of contact was just slightly over half way across the track as I was stood directly in line with it. JBA did drift wider than he had done in the 3 previous laps however you could argue he was slightly in front, maybe. However, what is certain is that he did know that Worrall was on his outside and he did clip him. Not necessarily on purpose but certainly enough for Worrall to be offset and then with no where to go when the bike straightened up. Worrall looked really good up this point and proper #1 for Scunthorpe so I hope he gets better soon. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Re: other comments, I would never consider Richie as a dirty rider. Yes, the 4's incident was just a continuation of the bad riding/blood between them both at the time. Agree also with you about Richie. The snowflakes from Redcar have his card marked because he was involved in the Kus first bend bunching leaving Kus in the air fence, and they blamed Richie when Summers cut across his racing line going into the first bend, and I think both come down but Richie was excluded. Their misappropriate and disgusting comments from the bar terrace of 'hope you break your f....g leg/ neck' was a main subject of a thread on their forum, and I was ashamed to be a speedway fan by association, to the defence of their horrible comments. To top it off the same crowd shouted the same to Andrew Tulley at the same spot, which was quite inappropriate seeing he had returned from having a broken bone in his neck/back. At one time I thought Andrew was going to go onto the bar terrace to introduce himself to some of the yobs. Fortunately some of the guilty party do not frequent the Redcar ranks these days, but of course there is always the nutters like RedcarRacer and his oppo Bellers who still bring these things up.

Yes that's right it's only "snowflakes" (copyright Daily Mail) who bring these things up says the bloke quoting chapter and verse about incidents involving other teams riders. My irony meter has gone to 11. I take it you have read Richie's facebook post (the one titled JBA F*** me) and the associated replies stating "your time will come" and Richie baiting Jonas to respond on Facebook whilst others call JBA every name under the sun. I trust you are ashamed to be a speedway fan by association? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I trust you are ashamed to be a speedway fan by association? Strange you say other teams riders, when I was actually there and you were riding against MY team. Nothing ironic about that I can recall what happened, but others seem to put their slant on things. If you have had a climax of 11 from it , good for you. I don't agree with riders slagging and taunting anybody or a rider in the social media, cos it's bad for the sport, but it also sets them up for more scrutiny if a suspicious accident was to happen afterwards. I am ashamed to being a speedway fan sometimes when certain fans drag the sport down with their stupid and non sensical comments of events and aimed at certain local teams and their riders. Two of them fans have already starred on this thread and not for the first time. There are decent Redcar fans, and in fact I stand with some by invitation at STMP, but some of your fans have let your club down on their tours, and in fact other Redcar fans have laughed at their attempts/comments on your own fans forum. I suppose you will probably deny that. Then that will be irony. Edited April 10, 2018 by Tsunami Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phillwhitewasmad Posted April 9, 2018 Report Share Posted April 9, 2018 From my view of the incident looking at it a on from the Veranda outside the bar my opinion is Anderson took a look at Steve as was going past him and moved out to block the move collecting him and sending him in to the fence. In my opinion it was a deliberate act but as it’s part of racing we will never know wether it Was done to cause injury or to protect a position 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
