Yearbyred 1,100 Posted December 11, 2021 So it’s the Redcar team reveal tonight. Do we expect any surprise names? Top 3 seemed pretty nailed on but then rumours of TJ. Who will be second reserve? Will Jordan Stewart be back? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Diamonds85 698 Posted December 11, 2021 As our nearest and dearest, I'd love to see the Bears put out a very strong line up for next year. Always nice to have strong next door neighbours Probably way off reality, but this would be a cool line up to see Redcar Bears Avg. 1 Charles Wright 8.28 2 Kasper Andersen 5.87 3 Erik Riss 7.84 4 James Sarjeant 4.16 5 Lewis Kerr 7.67 6 Norick Blodorn 4.00 7 Jordan Jenkins 3.70 Total: 41.52 Remaining: 0.48 I know James Sarjeant at 4 seems pretty terrible, but I'm thinking if him and Norick swap after the first set of averages come out, Norick and Erik would be a brilliant 3 and 4. Lewis is a decent number 5, Charles is a very strong number 1 and Kasper would be the best number 2 in the league by a mile. If the Tommy Jorgensen rumours are true (and I hope they are) then possibly Redcar Bears Avg. Charles Wright 8.28 Jack Thomas 5.15 Kasper Andersen 5.87 Thomas Jorgensen 7.28 Lewis Kerr 7.67 Norick Blodorn 4.00 Jordan Jenkins 3.70 Or Adam Roynon rather than Jack Thomas? Probably miles off but either way, I'm excited to see the team tonight Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
arnieg 3,624 Posted December 11, 2021 Blodorn has ridden in the Elitserien, wouldn't that make him a 5 assessed ave in the Championship? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Diamonds85 698 Posted December 11, 2021 Thanks for the info... This instead then? Redcar Bears Avg. 1 Charles Wright 8.28 2 Kasper Andersen 5.87 3 Erik Riss 7.84 4 Norick Blodorn 5.00 5 Thomas Jorgensen 7.28 6 Dillon Ruml 4.00 7 Jordan Jenkins 3.70 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yearbyred 1,100 Posted December 11, 2021 (edited) First rider announced as Jason Edwards. Unexpected, but impressed last year on his rides around the MPA, particularly in the U21 meeting. Roynon (surprising) and Kasper Andersen the next two. Kerr and Riss the last 2. Edited December 11, 2021 by Yearbyred Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Was unlucky to get released from both Eastbourne and Plymout last season. Another rider we were hoping to have back at Armadale. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cheekycobra 159 Posted December 11, 2021 Happy Kasper is back. When Roynon was named I had a feeling Poole or Glasgow might have nabbed him. No Jordy though, I wonder what the story is there, Or where he might be going? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yearbyred 1,100 Posted December 11, 2021 (edited) Right having had time to think about the team, I expected 5 of the 7. Riss will hopefully have a better year back at Redcar and Kerr was a no brainer after the way he rode for us last year. Pleased to see Kasper back, excellent around Redcar and seems to be improving. Edwards, like I said on the earlier post, impressed me on his visits in the U21 and Julie Lewis meeting and will hopefully up his average. Surprise is Roynon, can be good on his day but always a worry about his style and ability to stay fit. We shall see. Should be competitive at home, not sure we will be one of the strongest teams on the road but a solid team that will entertain us I’m sure.

Jaizer 2,862 Posted December 11, 2021 Looks more balanced than team finished season with. Jenkins and Edwards impressed me when I saw them, might find it more difficult at reserve this season as most teams have strengthened there. Roynon be my one concern but if anyone due bit of luck in British speedway it's him!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
