The match itself was a bit of a bore fest, ( never mind the inevitable delay ) only two genuine overtakes , whoever led from turn two won but the best team won on the night with S.Worrell back to his best and Østergaard looking like the rider he once was.Solid back up all round. Good that the crowd were kept informed by the centre green announcers. Wright and Riss did what was expected, Greaves and Palm Toft were doing ok and Andersen surprised me with a battling performance although surprised to see him in heat 15. Stewart looked like he wanted to be back home. Some strange referring , didn't understand why he stopped the race when Andersen touched Bjerre and put himself to the back of the field . He could have simply disqualified him after the race as the result would not have been effected . No such offence as " moving another rider off his line"! His claim that the tapes were faulty was a joke. He let a few flyers go ,from both sides. Going to be an interesting cup final if the Bears can find a good pair of replacements and with Ostergaard being the key man for the Diamonds. So if you are attending the cup meetings I hope your not going to be so negative with the comment about only 2 passes.. it was a good meeting even though there was nothing to play for as Redcar have ( rightly so qualified for the play offs ) & the diamonds have had a tough season,,, but it takes me back to when we had Lewis Kerr Chris Schramm Andrew tully Anton rosen ludde robbo Richie worrall & Christian Henry all representing the side that season & had a similar sort of league campaign but still won a cup so it would be great to do it in our 90th year 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I said it was not a good spectacle, it wasn't , plain and simple. I've been to Belle Vue, Redcar , and many other tracks where it wasn't a great meeting.We even had poor meetings at Workington.

It was a decent meeting and a good atmosphere because of the larger than normal attendance of the Redcar fans who created some banter.

slyfox 97 Posted September 18, 2019 (edited) Ben Duffill quoted in the Teesside Gazettte today. Broc Nichol in to replace Nathan Greaves for both play off meetings against Leicester (the Bates Family are being very generous loaning us their Sheffield asset) Plus 3 quality No 1's offered their services to replace MPT. Ben Thinks we are making a positive out of a negative following the horrific crash at Newcastle. Just need a reasonable 2 pointer to replace Tom Woolley to make the 7 up. DON'T WRITE US OFF YET LEICESTER...... Edited September 18, 2019 by slyfox 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
