Hope an early decision is made, as Ben Cook would rather like to watch the GP! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They have a very good relationship with Redcar council since having renewed the lease in 2018 when a lot of constraints on the club were removed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You need to get your facts right. As Fortythirtyeight said Redcar have an excellent relationship with the council. In fact in 2021 they ran 3 matches in a week. Redcar can run any day, any time, as long as it does not contravene the curfew. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So how come, Redcar raced against Poole on a Friday and had an amateur meeting on the Saturday, this season. Earlier in the season, we potentially had Stuart Robson's farewell on a Sunday and Redcar v Newcastle on a Friday in the same week. Loads of other instances, over recent years, It seems to me, that if its in the lease its not enforced. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
