Cubsforever 16 Posted July 11, 2016 The Stockton Van Centre sponsored Cubs suffered a heavy defeat at home to a strong Halifax 'Golden Fleece' Dukes last Thursday evening and are now at the wrong end of the Northern Junior League. The Cubs were simply outclassed from the starts and not helped with mechanical gremlins suffered by Elliot Kelly resulting in a 28-8 thumping. Extra practice sessions are being planned and it is hoped that the side won't have to wait to long to turn their enthusiasm into match points. Cubs scorers William O'Keefe 4, Jack Wright (guest) 3, Carl Basford 1, Elliot Kelly 0. Dukes scorers Joe Lawlor 9, Jordan Palin 9, Sam McGurk 6&3, Chris Hay 4&2.

Mimmo 1,070 Posted July 13, 2016 Yes. I'm glad you've confirmed that, as did Geoff Hayes at Halifax. It's just that the referee says it wasn't!!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cubsforever 16 Posted July 13, 2016 Carl Basford's score should have read 1. &1 from his three rides. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BuxtonTiger 122 Posted July 13, 2016 Do you have more fixtures, if so when and where. Do Redcar normally have second halfs? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mimmo 1,070 Posted July 14, 2016 Do you have more fixtures, if so when and where. Do Redcar normally have second halfs? I think they are at home against Berwick on the 4th August, and Workington on the 11th August, with a match against Northside with a date still to be confirmed. However, I'm sure Cubsforever will confirm one way or the other for you/us. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
phillwhitewasmad 1,487 Posted July 14, 2016 Berwick is definitely the 4th of August Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cubsforever 16 Posted July 16, 2016 Next home fixture is the 28/7/16 against Northside Stars. I am trying to revive second half races and will be running a Minimum of two races each time there isn't a junior match, alternating between 125's one week and 500's the next. Home fixtures. 4/8-Berwick 11/8-Workington Away 13/8/--at Northside (a.m.) and Workington (p.m.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
