northyorksbear 610 Posted May 12, 2013 Would love to see plenty Redcar fans travelling up and been treated by all Newcastle fans the way we would expect to be treated anywhere. All the childish remarks on here have gone way OTT. At the end of the day both clubs need as many fans through the gates from BOTH sides as possible. In the 70s at Cleveland Park banter between the fans was always flying back and forwards. The Football hate mentality shown by certain people from BOTH sides recently never ever showed its face. Lets have some decent banter but lets ALL support our team and respect our opposition. Rant over Well said and totally agree - nothing wrong with poking a little fun at your "nearest & dearest" but should be given and taken in the right spirit. I've said it before it is to both clubs benefit for both to be successful, naturally I and other wearing red & white would like Redcar to be on top, those from Newcastle have a different view! BUT it's good for the other to do well. Imagine a Newcastle/Redcar playoff final or KO Cup final - Havvy would need to pay some more turnstile staff !!!!!! Lets have a good meeting tonight with fans respecting each other and the opposition riders 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chewbacca 653 Posted May 12, 2013 Any news on Robbo and Lewis? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NJC71 388 Posted May 12, 2013 Strange meeting with the Diamonds winning by 17 points without every really firing. Track looked difficult particularly early on and with both Kus and Wilko throwing away points with falls when under no real pressure. Kerr and Robbo also came off later, both when perhaps pushing too hard in the conditions. Robbo’s fall was a bad looking one and it was a relief to see him walking in the pits so he’ll hopefully be ok for tomorrow. Ostergaard and Summers were the only real threat for the visitors with Summers having one of his good Brough nights involved in some lively first bends with Richie.... Unfortunately with Wilko again struggling and Kus having a wild night there was no real back-up. Dyer had a couple of good rides but is not the threat here that he is on the bigger tracks. Dilger not surprisingly looked rusty and off the pace but he has no prior form here either. The Diamonds, Richie and Henry apart didn’t have their gating boots on with Ludvig having by his standards a poor night and his paid 12 being flattering aided by the Redcar falls. Strange night for Steve who looked ill at ease on the bike in some of his rides but found some extraordinary speed coming off bend 2 and ended up with a fine paid 10 looking much steadier in his last couple of rides. He’s certainly doing the job though at home now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
