Redcar 2020


Recommended Posts

All pointless speculation at this stage as no one knows the points limit till after the AGM. As Havvy Snr used to say, "a successful team is one you have to brake up" so at least half the team will have to go depending on the limit.

From what I've seen 

keep Wright but he's a Poole asset so you may have a problem there now.

Stewart Redcar owned and capable of more improvement 

Anderssen can still improve, is he Sheffields asset?

Of the rest not sure how much improvement there's left in them. If Wright goes could keep Riss and possibly Palm Toft but can't keep all three. Greaves had his moments but mostly away from home and try as he did Wooley needs to go back to National League.

If Bacon comes back to racing and he can brought back at reserve he's worth a place but Birmingham seem to be signing riders already ( what do they know that we don't?) and he may go there.

whoever leaves can always come to Newcastle as we appear to like your rejects!

Hasn't stopped Eastbourne or Birmingham, as both have announced two riders each!

I think he has said Poole is too far to travel so you should be okay.

Its not though is it ? People regurgitate this line every season . For example Broc Nicol is on a 5.16 now regardless of the points limit i would sign him up because he is great value . If the limit is 38 40 or 42 it really doesnt matter . For us Birmingham James Shanes 5.31 dont matter get him in we can work the last couple of riders to suit .

You answered your own question..." We can work the last couple of riders to suit". Therefore the points limit does matter and riders will have to be released.

I reckon Jake Allen will be a good shout for being in our starting 7 next season. Not only does he ride well round the MPA ( granted, plenty of riders do!), but he performed well when he guested for us recently and seemed to fit in well with the rest of the team in the pits.

I think he'd like to be a Redcar Bear next season ;)

Except he's already signed for Scunthorpe 2020.

Thanks Cotton On - memo to ones self " must do my homework more thoroughly"! I hadn't checked other teams posted for a couple of days.

Shame really, I would have been happy to have seen him riding for Redcar :(
