You would normally think so but he has been rubbish lately.

Personally think Rory has had a decent season,seemed to be giving hit his best shot any time I have seen him.I though he was a poor signing for Bandits given I don’t think Shielfield is one of his better tracks,butI take that back as he certainly done the job he was brought into do.IMO.He was our only decent rider away from home.

Won't be if tracks are wet and iffy , 

Of course everyone is entitled to their own option, but I feel it would carry more weight if you suggested a rider who you think will do better than Schlein?

Sedgmen, Batchelor, Andersen, Flint?

Howarth could only guest at home!

Of course Redcar will have more options for the KOC semi finals.

Probably Sedgmen, Schlein has had some poor meetings  including his guest appearances and recent meetings for Wolves so would be a risk. Howarth would be my pick for home meetings.

Sorry to see charles get injured get well soon,however he gave up on a club that have kept him in work for a few seaaons now for a poss one off meeting in poland! Do they have riders fund like we do or will he claim off our fund whilst he is injured? Again soz that he got hurt but its a gen question.

You can't blame him for going for the big bucks in Poland, very unlucky to get injured and I would suggest his crash had nothing to do with his riding style just very unfortunate.

Gave up on a club? What a ridiculous statement. 
 

The vast majority of Redcar fans and the management of Redcar speedway would say that’s tosh. He took advantage of an opportunity to ride in the top league in the world and circumstances (injury to Woffy) meant he was called up to a meeting on a day when Redcar had a meaningless (in terms of the play offs) fixture. Some Bears fans have already set up a go fund me for him, so they don’t think he’s “given up” on Redcar. Yes it’s awful timing for the Bears (and Belle Vue) but that’s insignificant compared to his health,

He’s suffered some horrific injuries and is likely to be in hospital for some time. If you’ve seen the crash you’ll see it’s nothing to do with his riding style and just a speedway accident.

Get well soon Charles, a brilliant servant to Redcar speedway.

Given riders don't get help from the Ben fund if they get injured riding on the IOW (Nora) I'd assume they wouldn't pay out for someone injured in Poland.

I'm 99% sure British Speedway is the only nation with such a fund, maybe with the big pay checks riders can get in Poland, they put something aside in case of injuries? Not that this is the case for Wright who got injured in his first match.

Get well soon Charles
