RedcarRacer Posted April 17, 2018 Report Share Posted April 17, 2018 (edited) Redcar have confirmed that JBA misses out due to Danish qualifier, and Paul Starke rides in his place - but why have a guest for such a pointless meeting or I have missed the rules that we have to have a guest rather than R/R? Surely be more beneficial to the team to have R/R and allow Stewart and MBA to have extra rides at their new home and then also Kus -plus save having to pay expenses. And against such a weak Newcastle side there is no need for a guest. Prediction, all down to Busch and Pijper but both could and should hit double figures so Bears by 12 Redcar: Ben Barker, Jordan Stewart, Paul Starke, Mikkel B Andersen, Matej Kus, Tobias Busch, Theo Pijper Newcastle: Ludvig Lindgren, r/r for Lewis Rose, Tero Aarnio, Matthew Wethers, Stuart Robson, Carl Wilkinson, Ashley Morris Edited April 17, 2018 by RedcarRacer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boz Posted April 17, 2018 Report Share Posted April 17, 2018 I'm guessing they are worried about Stewarts fitness - may well end up running r/r anyway and better to have a better guest? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedcarRacer Posted April 17, 2018 Author Report Share Posted April 17, 2018 I just hate guests - should only ever be allowed for a number one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ruffdiamond Posted April 17, 2018 Report Share Posted April 17, 2018 Redcar could've used a NL guest, or a no.8 against such a poor Newcastle side,,, it would have saved them a few quid and, gave the Diamonds a sporting chance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperBear Posted April 18, 2018 Report Share Posted April 18, 2018 Guessing that we are needing to take every meeting seriously after having a wobbly start away from home Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boz Posted April 18, 2018 Report Share Posted April 18, 2018 To cheer RR up, Newcastle will now also be using a guest instead of rider replacement for Lewis Rose. Kevin Doolan will come in for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yearbyred Posted April 18, 2018 Report Share Posted April 18, 2018 Think this will be pretty close - Newcastle have riders who have a lot of experience around Redcar and the Bears have 2 riders having their first appearance at the track (assuming Stewart is fit enough to ride) A lot will depend on the 2 enigmas - Kus and Lindgren. Not much in it either way. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mauger65 Posted April 18, 2018 Report Share Posted April 18, 2018 this will be a measure of Newcastle's strength in depth team realistically redcar is one of the only 3 tracks we have a chance of taking away points so a minimum of 40 points would be expected redcar hitting anything over 50 will be very worrying for our future away day travels I expect a redcar win but given their less than stellar start to the season ... perhaps we could catch them cold Lindgren is the key man ..... in some meetings at redcar he has been brilliant (its one of his better away tracks) and given redcars team theres no reason why lindgren couldn't score 12-13 ............. but if he has another away day blue and comes in with only 5-7 ... it could be a long night Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KEITH M Posted April 18, 2018 Report Share Posted April 18, 2018 The average age of newcastle’s team tomorrow is 32.8 I wonder if that’s the oldest team Newcastle have ever put out in their history ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parsy29 Posted April 19, 2018 Report Share Posted April 19, 2018 (edited) The sun is shining and its derby day. Should be a cracker of a meeting in lovely conditions. Redcar are without Jonas B and Newcastle without Rose. Both guests will not weaken the sides at all so its got the makings of a good one. Afterwards Cubs v Gems. Stay behind as your support would be most appreciated. Edited April 19, 2018 by Parsy29 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully an entertaining meeting with no injuries. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mauger65 Posted April 19, 2018 Report Share Posted April 19, 2018 32.8 ... clearly building for the future hopefully a good meeting with the diamonds bringing their usual hefty away support ............ just a pity the redcar supporters don't seem to know where Newcastle is in the return fixture Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They think they double our crowd when they come, they don't realise that we do get bigger crowds when the 'big' teams come to town...

Considering they bring so many supporters down to our place they must be really good at hiding and keeping very very quiet.

Part from Sheffield last year we did, and usually do most years. Not that you are going to accept that, but your fans I know acknowledge it.
