Redcar v Glasgow 10th September
Yearbyred replied to Biffa's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Not sure we will see either Pijper or the guesting Hagon today after their falls the other day. -
Redcar v Glasgow 10th September
Yearbyred replied to Biffa's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Possibly - forecasts I’ve seen say possibility of rain around late afternoon/early evening. Sunny and warm at the moment though. -
Glasgow V Oxford Championship - Friday 8 September 2023 - 7.30pm
Yearbyred replied to SharpenRake's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
You’re reference to “shooting itself in the foot” wasn’t about Heat 15 though, or if it was it was so poorly written that the vast majority on here didn’t get your point. Also Jesus Christ wasn’t available for the Pairs either, Polish commitments I believe. -
Glasgow V Oxford Championship - Friday 8 September 2023 - 7.30pm
Yearbyred replied to SharpenRake's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
I think giving riders the same assessed average in both leagues is more “speedway shooting itself in the foot” than not letting a rider who hasn’t ridden for a club ride in the Pairs Championship personally. -
Poole v Scunthorpe 13th September 2023 Champ playoffs 1st leg
Yearbyred replied to Steve Shovlar's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Looking like a Scunthorpe v Redcar final now….. -
Redcar v Glasgow 10th September
Yearbyred replied to Biffa's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Think those changes have more of an impact on Redcar than Glasgow, but can’t blame Charles for taking the Polish offer. -

Who is he replacing? -
Championship Pairs - Sep 1st
Yearbyred replied to Bojangles's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
People aren’t getting stressed, 1 person is. Can’t please everyone. -
Championship Pairs - Sep 1st
Yearbyred replied to Bojangles's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Well done to Glasgow - well deserved on the night, they were the best pairing overall. Great effort from Charles and Danny. Good meeting after a slow start. -
Championship Pairs - Sep 1st
Yearbyred replied to Bojangles's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
If the teams rode against each other then the winners of that heat would go through (which is fairer than a coin toss?) Redcar and Oxford didn’t race again each other so it was a coin toss. Seems fair enough to me. -
Championship Pairs - Sep 1st
Yearbyred replied to Bojangles's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Well they couldn’t use the same rule could they, so I’m not sure what you expect them to do? -
Was at the track so haven’t seen any replays of the Wright incidents. Think the fact that both were on the first/second bend of the opening lap saved him. Ref made the calls, not Charles. Decent meeting given the weather we have had and track rode pretty well. Credit to Ben Cook and Chris Harris who were great all night. Well done Charles.
-
Nicholls and Howarth out now. Replaced by Thomson and Castagna. Real shame about the drop outs but still plenty of good riders around Redcar to make it worth watching.
-
In theory, any club in this league with an assessed 5 pointer could have made this move. In reality, only a few could afford to do it.
-
Anyone know if Tarasenko is available for the Championship riders final on Sunday….
-
Agreed it’s the rule that’s at fault, not Glasgow for exploiting it. Although my comment on getting a financial package together still applies, not many Championship teams could do it.
-
Obviously a cracking signing for Glasgow which strengthens them a hell of a lot. Genuinely no idea how he fits average wise and it’s certainly not a like for like swap with a team already over the limit on current averages, but it’s speedway so shouldn’t be surprised. Should make the play offs closer for the 3 teams with the financial clout to compete against each other.

Wolves v Witches Monday 21st Aug
Yearbyred replied to Badge's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Redcar have picked up a couple of decent guests for this meeting by the looks of it. -
Championship League Riders Championship @Redcar. 27/8/2023. 5.00pm.
Yearbyred replied to pvm's topic in Speedway Testimonials & Individual and Shared Events
Shame about the drop outs already, all good riders around Redcar who would have had a chance at winning. Still should be a decent meeting though. -
Redcar v Birmingham. 18/8/2023. 7.30pm (live on BSN)
Yearbyred replied to pvm's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
What are you on about? The race was stopped on a 4-2 (although Charles was very close to passing Sedgmen, hence why it wasn’t awarded) and the re-run was a 4-2 to Brum? Birmingham did well but were greatly improved by having Lawson at 1 instead of Morris (16 for Lawson, Morris scored 2 here last time). Sedgmen had a typical meeting at Redcar and I thought Starke did well (as he should at Reserve). Solid enough from the Bears top 5 but the reserves were heavily outscored. Need to improve for the play offs. Some decent, fast racing on a well prepared track. -
Poole Pirates Vs Redcar Bears 16/8
Yearbyred replied to Shaleshifter's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Think it was just a good gate actually. Didn’t move until the tapes started to go up. If this was one of the many “massive rollers” that the opposition seem to get away with every week (according to some) then we might have to disregard that posters comments. Good ride from the Cooks though (albeit it was Danyon) -
Poole Pirates Vs Redcar Bears 16/8
Yearbyred replied to Shaleshifter's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
R/R scored 5 so you would hope Charles would have scored more. Still think Pirates would have won but certainly could have been a lot closer. Sounds like a decent meeting, Poole are very strong at home. -
Poole Pirates Vs Redcar Bears 16/8
Yearbyred replied to Shaleshifter's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
If the Bears keep it within 10 they will have done well. -
On the BSN coverage Worrall blamed Trigger for the incident because (and I quote) “he sh*t himself and didn’t go round the outside” Probably knew that the Redcar fans still call you Right Turn Richie.
-
Gavin Parr said they had tried everyone over 7 points as a guest but couldn’t find one (yet). Even said he was hoping Charles might declare himself fit. Looks like it’ll be R/R again.
