What if?

After the result the other night i started thinking aboutĀ how we should not have let Hume and Bailey go to bring in Novak and Complin. With hindsight it was a mistake and i was never too keen on seeing Harris back for the Tigers either.Ā If there had been any chance of bringing in Charles Wright instead of Chris Harris this could have been the Tigers team this season:Ā Ā Ā 

1 Ā  Basso Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  8.52Ā  (returnee)
2 Ā  Vissing Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  5.00Ā  (new addition)
3 Ā  WrightĀ  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  7.40Ā  Ā (new addition)
4 Ā  Hume Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  5.68Ā  Ā (returnee)
5 Ā  Brennan (c)Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā 6.71Ā  Ā (returnee)
6 Ā  Bailey Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  4.32Ā  Ā (returnee)
7 Ā  PijperĀ  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  2.00Ā  Ā (new addition)

Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā 39.63

Out: Broc, Ulrich and Cookie.

Charles Wright has publicly stated that he wants to see out his racing career with the Bears. He and Jason Edwards have signed for 2024. So you can forget your theory.

Very good looking side but would take a lot to get Wright out of Redcar I'd have thought. Might have had more chance getting Richie W on similar average as he was available with Leicester movin up.

Certainly bailey or hume at reserve all season would've given a far more potent tail end

Recent history, do you think that team would have won at Scunthorpe?

Two weeks ago Redcar fans wanted rid of Danyon & Connor after they lost at home to Poole.

FYI Marcin Nowak has a higher average this season in Polish Div. 2 than Ryan Douglas,Ā Sam Masters & Nick Morris

It's a nice team but I wouldn't go for it, primarily because Connor really needed to go and get experience somewhere else, for his own progression. Also, don't see Charles Wright signing for Glasgow, despite being mega around the track.

The Redcar fans didnā€™t, just a couple of the usual key board warriors did. Every club has them, unfortunately.

Think part of the trouble is Marcin keeps outgating Harris and is a road block at times.

Looks another sunny day tomorrow although not as warm as was last few days, hopefully help with track prep.Ā 

On track be disappointed not to hit 55, nick and sedgy apart pretty poor ashfield records all round. Even they aren't consistently good (see sedgy on Tuesday).Ā

Or like Tuesday heat 6 Bomber almost puts him in the fence on turn 2 in his haste to get to the outside. Marcin has to shut off and ends up out the back.
