We sorely missed Rasser at Redcar as he would have undoubtedly scored more than Proctor's 4 points. 12 points to make up is do-able, however Vissing needs to be on it.

Claus is the key if he rides like we know he can we will qualify.

However his current  form is a worry and if his form slump continues tonight we will struggle to qualify.

As a Bears supporter I think Tigers will win the meeting, but we keep the score close enough to go through on aggregate, only need 40 points, and with 3 heat leaders again and Jordy on fire looks good. All riders have a good and safe meeting.

Wish I shared your optimism. Jordy's away from home, by the way.

Great result for the Bears, an excellent battling performance by all the team, and Nathan did indeed prove to be the Bears trump card.

After years without any success in the cup competitions, maybe it's the Bears turn for glory ?

Certainly, they need not fear any of the teams left in. UTB !!!

Good solid performance from the Bears.

Think a few things fell our way (Proctors poor points return in the first leg being a major one) but you need a bit of luck to progress sometimes.

Surprised Glasgow agreed to go to Redcar knowing Jensen would be missing.Paid the price.IMO

WELL DONE to the Bears. That looks a decent Team now.

Do the semi's line up as written in order on the bspa website... Edinburgh v Newcastle. Eastbourne v Redcar, or is there a draw or something?

Gutted. 

Remedial track work was required and whilst frustrating it had to be done. The promotion have done a terrific job getting the track to this point and I believe this was just a mishap that won’t be repeated. 

Disappointed not to go through and have a sour taste at the way in which Redcar went about things with r/r for Bacon when Anderson should’ve been riding. I also could be wrong but reckon they were deliberately moving at the tapes to put off the rider on the outside of them - 4 times it happened. 

Unfortunately Kyle had a rare off night and  losing Jensen for the first leg has cost us. 

A couple of positives - Conor looks like he’s improving every lap and the bend 3 bump seems to have been sorted!

Back to the league next week with a guest required for Kyle!

Sounds a nail biting match tonight. Any reason given for Cookie not out in heat 15?
