northyorksbear 610 Posted June 13, 2013 Potentially a cracking meeting, big problem could be weather, North East under yellow weather warning for rain during afternoon. Approx 2 miles from track 11.25am sky very dark and heavy rain at present Fingers crossed everyone Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
boz 316 Posted June 13, 2013 Agree, could be a cracking meeting this. I'm guessing we will be running r/r for Matej? On a good run of form at the moment and would expect us to get a win but feel we will need a decent margin to take to Scunny tomorrow. Wilko should again be trump card at reserve and hopefully Max will be starting to ride himself back fit and into the points. Heavy rain in MBoro town centre at the moment, however from forecasts I have seen should clear up during afternoon so fingers crossed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mrmiddlesbrough 76 Posted June 13, 2013 Mr M and his part time weather forecasting comes in to play today, all will be grand later as we shouldn't get much more rain (if any) after 5pm Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RedcarRacer 228 Posted June 13, 2013 doubt it he just dont like riding the redcar track. He was hurt last night during Czech test match with Poland, leg and rib injuries - will be R/R for both meetings, at least a week out if not longer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vivabossman 6 Posted June 13, 2013 Always sad to hear about riders being injured but it deffo makes Redcar stronger. Lets use the R/R to our advantage for once just like Newcastle have done for the past 3 months. With Matej being 2nd in our averages anyone can take his rides.

EC Rides Again 143 Posted June 13, 2013 Gutsy rear-guard action from the Scorpions to keep the tie alive for tomorrow night. Get well soon David. Has anyone got Josh Gracjzonek's mobile number? (Probably easier to get Richard Hall on speed-dial !) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
boz 316 Posted June 13, 2013 Seems strange to say this after a win, but quite disappointed with that. No disrespect to scunny, but after losing Howe and already 16 down the second leg should have been a foregone conclusion. No doubt the track played its part (never seen such big blue grooves), but towards the end scunny just seemed more up for it. For the bears, Ulrich looked untouchable for four heats although faded. Skidmore and dyer both rode well alongside summers who had to work very hard for his points as his gating was shocking. Really disappointed with Wilko though, good win in first ride but then nothing, including the compulsory fall. For scunny, firstly best wishes to David Howe. Looked a very awkward tumble, would imagine collarbone/shoulder injury. Led well by Auty and birks grew into the meeting. MPT was hit and miss, looked very quick most of the meeting but not sure how he stayed on bike in second ride. Douglas struggled but blackbird battled hard and possibly deserved more points. Think the act Scunthorpe celebrated like they won after heat 15 shows they fancy there chances in second leg. Should be close. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
