Redcar 2023


Recommended Posts

So what do Redcar fans think of Jason Edwards guesting for group rivals Scunthorpe & potentially knocking out Redcar?

Although with how the results have gone - Plymouth, Oxford, Edinburgh & Berwick having all lost at home, I'm pretty sure both Scunthorpe & Redcar will qualify from the group!

I am assuming the 'best loser' from a group will not be against the 'winner' from the same group in the SF's!!

Shouldn't be allowed it's a farce. Birmingham's Sedgeman shouldn't have been allowed to ride for Redcar at Scunthorpe either.

Not sure Redcar, will win  all their home meetings in the BSN series. Scunthorpe will be a stern test of that on Friday.

2 points from 3 riders at Oxford tonight. Not good enough. Same 3 riders registering too many 0's. Might soon be time to give Redcar track specialist Drew Kemp a call.

I like that, but I suspect he's already had a call. I have been saying from the get go, this season, that the tail, was woefully weak. This applies especially at Redcar (example Danyon Hume 4 matches, prior to this season, 15 rides 12 points ) hardly startling pedigree. Connor Bailey  has only had 1meeting at Redcar (from memory) didn't score much. Jake Mulford only  been once before (from memory) and Jeffo might be right about his suitability. If we persist with these riders, (not saying we shouldn't) then they have to grasp the nettle, roll their sleeves up and come out fighting.

2 points from 3 riders is not good enough- I agree with that statement but… We are more than capable of doing the same to Oxford at our track. We are built pretty much the same, just depends whose lower riders get it right on the night. One question though, why is Jason not getting 7 rides on nights like this? Or at least 6 if we use Tac Sub.

As best I know they get a facility all season because he's ridden a match for the team.

Unless he starts riding in Germany again without returning to Redcar/Ipswich. At which point he's surely 'withholding his services' and the facility would become a 28 day one.

Does anyone know when the facility for Erik ends? And what are the prospects for his return?

Redcar and Ipswich seem to be saying he's still unfit to ride, think they said he failed a fitness test for Thursday after some treatment. Only place I've seen saying he was banned for riding in Germany in European team final was here from a certain champ clubs centre green announcer.

The facility ends when he declares himself fit to race, there’s no time limit on it, it’s a genuine illness unlike the Kennet scenario last year.

He will want to race to earn some cash as it’s his full time job.

The club will stick by him and the other riders who are still finding their feet as, unlike some of the keyboard warriors on here, the club show patience as the season isn’t going too bad….through in the K O cup, through in the Micky mouse cup and a first away win at Edinburgh in 10 years!
