Yearbyred 1,103 Posted September 23, 2019 (edited) From the Bears website:- It has also been confirmed that dates have now been set for the KO Cup Final against Newcastle and for the Teesside Silver Helmet. Redcar will stage the 1st leg of the cup final at home on Friday 11th October, with the 2nd leg taking place in Newcastle on Sunday 13th October. Duffill explained, “The Play Off’s must be completed before the KO Cup final, so we race this week against Leicester and then Friday 4th October is reserved for the Play Off final, should we make it. Ideally, I would have liked the 2nd leg of the KO Cup to have been at home, but that wasn’t fair on Newcastle, who are already having to wait 2 weeks for us to finish our Play Off fixtures and originally wanted to race this week. A compromise had to be made somewhere.” Edited September 23, 2019 by Yearbyred 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think this meeting will fall foul of the weather!!! Cheery I know. Edited September 25, 2019 by diamond@heart 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah I think the last decent individual line was the 80th & the 1 before that was probably Joe Owens benefit meeting Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
