Biffa 79 Posted October 1, 2019 Was in the local paper that Leicester had offered the 12th but Jade said that Redcar wanted a date sooner as that was too long to wait for the tie to be concluded Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sidewinder 189 Posted October 1, 2019 Be interesting, to see. Who the Lions, select as a guest, for the Redcar leg. Due to circumstances, not a lot of choice. Adam Ellis, might be best bet, Lewis Kerr and Ben Barker could come into the reckoning, with maybe Kyle Howarth and even Garrity. Should be revealed soon.

GlasVegas 56 Posted October 2, 2019 Ridiculous! Where's the sense of prioritisation over any other planned fixture? - probably all simply to allow Scottie to show off another shirt this Saturday night! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They can’t run this week because the National League team have their play off Semi Final & Cup Semi Final Have to disagree Lenny, so there was no possibility of, as example, a double header? No disrespect intended to the NL team, but in priority terms surely the Championship play-off has to take priority. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Happy Hunter 361 Posted October 2, 2019 The Cubs already have a double header on Saturday and then some of them including Lions Perks are involved in the NL Riders Championship on Sunday. Some of the Lions are also involved in the PL playoffs next week. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Some of the Lions are also involved in the PL playoffs next week. With respect, that double header (or at least one half of it) should have been pushed back to allow the higher priority (sorry, but it is the case) Championship play-off to take place; alternatively why couldn't one or the other be staged mid week (I'm sure Leicester have staged a few mid week meetings this season) just as Glasgow had to last night?

Yearbyred 1,092 Posted October 2, 2019 (edited) Team news confirmed here. Lawson for Toft, Howarth for Worrall. http://www.redcar-speedway.com/2019/10/02/updated-team-news-for-friday/ The back straight will be open for additional spectator space for the next 2 meetings - only other time was for the Fours last year and it give an excellent view of the racing.
