Thought he'd retired.

Is Rathbone actually a NL rider? Woolley seems to be in and out of teams as well. Anyway it was just a blip, Redcar will certainly finish higher than Scunthorpe by the end of the season.

With two national league riders AND r/r, Redcar were weak!

I'm guessing he didn't want to take any risks while Redcar are so severely weakened, probably Scunny's only chance of an away win (meanwhile the first two in the 2v meeting are Scotland bound!) this season.

People are what they are and you have to accept that, if you can't then maybe you'd be better elsewhere.

Actually Summers approached Havelock and told him what Glasgow had offered, Havelock said he didn't blame him for taking what was an amount way above what he'd imagined. As I said, your trophy cabinet is hardly bulging, I also said that Speedway here would be better for having more promoters with the financial backing of yours. Yes they certainly have made a nicer stadium and facilities but I never actually mentioned them. It seems some people on here are developing a complex about any sort of criticism, most of which would seem like nothing more than banter and the usual fan rivalry, with possibly a bit of jealousy in a very few cases.

I very much doubt that everyone actually hates Glasgow but I remember some promoters were critical of the way they just outbid everyone for whoever they want (remember the Brian Havelock, Summers incident). In the main it hasn't seemed to work, as you change personnel as frequently as other teams and your trophy cabinet isn't exactly bulging. Speedway in the UK would be better for more owners with a sound financial backing though.

Erm......

Well it's as good an excuse as any.

Sign him up! Nobody dare pass him.

The fact is he hasn't progressed in the way he was expected to, many other young riders have caught up and overtaken him (literally), that doesn't mean he can't or won't improve but currently he's even disappointing in the NL.

Looking on the bright side..... They've signed a new number one and found an adequate replacement for a rider with a serious injury.

This is already featured on the Redcar forum.

I'd rather some young up and coming rider, the Andersen's have had their chances.
