I don’t feel it’ll be as easy people will make it out to be as with Jorgensen in for pijper , it’s a big difference in performance and the re wasn’t much between the Two at owlerton earlier in the season 

Could be right, Sheffield look particularly weak in the tail, Jorgensen needs to up his game though, he hasn't been that brilliant at KL.

Must have ridden over a black cat somewhere (quick someone check the White Knight is ok!)

Should Redcar face another fine for putting out an under strength team?

I'm OK YB :rofl:  - but I cannot believe the 'Bears' luck this Season.

Good luck to then in what is a very difficult situation.

What a shambles of a meeting and i can only feel sorry for the poor folks with season tickets who have paid for this, I certainly wont be wasting my time and money.

one  7.95 average rider and a 5.95 then the other 4 riders averaging 4 or below.

Surely in the interest of the paying public and speedway in general this meeting should be called off and rearranged when redcar will be more competitive. Yes i like winning but not at all costs as anyone who goes tonight will probably never return.

They haven't actually been any "more competitive" so far this season.

Goes from bad to worse for the bears we ve got two hopes of knocking sheffield out bob hope and no hope the season so far has been a shambles and especially after a great season last year we should have built on that and been challenging near the top instead of with the dead men again near the bottom

Agreed there is only one outcome tonight, this is not competitive racing, and the paying public are not getting what they pay to see. 

I reckon the riders too are somewhat wishing that despite it being a nice payday they want proper competition too, and they too are being shortchanged.

if I were a home rider, I would be. The money is nice but.......

Massive crash between Barker and Parkinson Blackburn. Don't really know what happened it looked like Barker lost control of the bike or something went wrong with the bike.It happened coming onto the straight in heat13, Blackburn to close ran straight into Barker, bikes and bodies all over. Blackburn dislocated shoulder. Barker looked to come off  with a lot more than that. Put on a backboard and neck brace, i saw him put in the city ambulance and he was on oxygen. but fingers crossed it looked worse than it really was.

Ben Barker's injury is suspected to be his collarbone. He will need assessing but the spinal board was a precaution, team boss Jitendra Duffill reported he had not lost feeling anywhere. Jack Parkinson-Blackburn has suffered a suspected dislocated collar bone.

Horrible looking crash, wishing a speedy recovery for both riders.

Wonder how the Bears will lineup for tonight's clash ? 

Well done to Jordan Stewart who looked the part and showed a liking for the fast Owlerton track.

 

Anyone reckon team changes could be happening soon for the Tigers ?
