Think Redcar team are practicing there next weekend.

Not been the Media Prima for a few years.. Its been The ECCO Arena for some time now. Agree with you it could be a close thing who gets to be our 3rd heat leader.

The N D L: is now only made up of Premiership and Championship 2nd teams and is going to be at a lower level than when other tracks were involved.

Dont think the league will allow another Friday track.

No. Just need to ensure that every team has a back up. Edinburgh must have foreseen this days ago and did nothing about it till it was to late.

Yes both clubs can be flexible on the nights they ride but wont want 2 meetings in any week, when all of September & October are free at the moment

Will be September now as League takes priority. No spare Fridays till then.

Dont speak to soon "Bellers". If we can see off Scunny in the semi its Poole again in the KO Cup Final. Seem to be seeing a lot of these 2 teams this season......

Will Erik Riss be back for Friday? Sounds like he has been practicing at Redcar in recent days.

Seems to be riding ok considering you think he is still unfit.....

Agree he is now named as Redcar's number 3 with Danny King moving to Number one (due to the new averages). Does not mean that he will fit to ride on Friday. Will have to wait and see. Hope he is.

Plymouth are in the play offs and its either Redcar or Scunthorpe who will join them. So I would not think that Plymouth will be to worried about the result on Tuesday not like Redcar who need to get a result on Tuesday and not get beaten by more than 6 points to knock Scunthorpe out.

Is this meeting live on BRMB radio tonight?

Great to see long term sponsors taking over the stadium sponsorship. The stadium will now be called "The ECCO Arena" thanks to Keith Miller their MD, a great supported of The Bears. Roll on the start of the season against The Diamonds on 25th March at "The ECCO Arena". With Press and Practice being on Sunday 13th March.

Sorted now showing Newcastle on 25th March. Plus full list in fixtures section.

Dont write off Redcar. Excellent top 4. Plus if Adam Roynon can up his 5.21 average a bit (coming in with a great attitude, new equipment & reasonable, almost injury free year, at Newcastle last year). Plus if one or both of the 2 reserves (who both impressed at time last year) can put in a good year. I fancy an upset here to what you call the southern dominance. The Northern Powerhouse!!!

???

Spot on!!! Think this has to be our best top 3 for a long time. Kasper will almost be a fourth heat leader if he carries on the way he finished last season (cannot believe he has not got a place in the top league yet). Adam just needs to watch his fitness. Did not have a bad season at Newcastle last season with a 5+ average, think he may up his average a little. He talked a good season at The Bears Xmas party, very positive. Just hope the 2 reserves settle into the start of the season well. Then we will be the team to beat.

Yes realise he signed for Plymouth, but he guested for a lot of other teams towards the end of the season.

I take your point but I am confused. He was a 2* rising star for Eastbourne, not a rising star at Plymouth, then did a lot of guest appearances after he did not have a team. So which meetings do they use for his average All? Eastbourne? Plymouth? or a mixture?

My math's (which are not so good) get the team much closer to the limit. Wright 8.28 Roynon 5.08 Andersen 5.87 Kerr 7.67 Riss 7.84 Total 34.74 Leaving only 7.26 for the 2 reserves who were both rising stars last year, so its more difficulty to find their averages. Think I have seen Jordan Jenkins at 3.52. Leaving only 3.74 for Jason Edwards and I would have thought his average would be about the same as Jordan's. Think the team should perform well both at home and away. Adam needs to at least ride to his average to ensure he stays.

Yes he should come in on a 5 average. So the above team on that basis would not work.

If Riss rides over here next year I think he will be back at Redcar.....

Would put money on Wright, Riss & Kerr being the top 3. Plenty of spaces for Thomas yet in this league.

That's not what was said at the Silver Helmet in the pits. Robbie Kessler was looking after him and gave the impression he was in the shop window for a 2022 team place.
