Biffa

Never saw Middlo throw his toys out. They did blade the dirt to the outside of the bends at heat 11, even one of the commentary team remarked about it happening

There was in the qualifying stages, but you’re right it could change in the Semi/Final. Good point

I expect Danny to have 7 rides tonight, regular 4, 1x R/R, 1x heat 15 & 1x tac sub. Charles 6 rides, no tac sub. That is hopefully 30 points from their rides. Meaning we have to manage our R/R & tac sub tactically & ruthlessly. Not a total lost cause I hope.

2 points from 3 riders is not good enough- I agree with that statement but… We are more than capable of doing the same to Oxford at our track. We are built pretty much the same, just depends whose lower riders get it right on the night. One question though, why is Jason not getting 7 rides on nights like this? Or at least 6 if we use Tac Sub.

Redcar using the guest facility this week for Erik Riss. In comes Richard Lawson for 3 meetings Away v Birmingham Home v Scunthorpe Away v Berwick KOC

Sorry, but it’s only what the play off system is using. Can only have a guest from the clubs that aren’t involved.

While Birmingham let Redcar use Sedgman & Scunthorpe use Proctor in the same match

Any sign of a restaging date yet?

Are Tac Subs allowed in the BSN series? Rules change all the time and tough to keep up sometimes

How’s the weather looking down Scunthorpe way. Will this be on, are we safeish to travel down tomorrow ?

Craziest rain off/ not a rain off was a home meeting at Redcar, versus Plymouth. Turned up at 7 only to be told the meeting was off by car park staff. Meeting went ahead about 8-8.30 that evening. Never found out until a notification came up on phone to say The score was ? After so many heats. Loads must have missed that meeting that night.

Once travelled from Middlesbrough to Stoke to find it rained off, Speedway Star out, Belle Vue had a fixture. Hot footed to Belle Vue, rained off. Speedway Star back out, Halifax at home quick run on M62, meeting still on, junior 4 TT. Back home to Middlesbrough. Oh so miss all the Saturday options.

Alcock, Palin & Kennedy we’re all second bend if I recall correctly

3 of the said crashes were coming out of the second bend just after the air fence finished. Wonder if an extra panel could save a lot of injuries. Don’t know where Jack crashed yesterday but if it was same again it had to be worth a look

Any idea how long the early bird offer is on for?

Might have been said already but there is nothing to stop a concession/OAP paying full rate anyway. All they have to do is ask for a full price adult ticket & not show their passes.

Kyle Newman has been diagnosed with a broken shoulder apparently, which he told Redcar rules him out of the start of the season unfortunately ( Jamie Swales on Saturdays team reveal ).

My biggest worry about James Shane’s is his own confession that he wasn’t fully fit and was going to give 2023 a miss on the speedway to get his body right again. Think it was a Speedway Star report a few weeks back. That could come back to bite both James & Redcar. Hope it’s not a repeat of Adam Roynon last year. Fingers crossed all is good.

Wright, Riss, King, Edwards, Hume, & either Mulford OR Ablitt. Plus ? For whatever’s left ? Kyle Newman maybe? Got to keep Jason at reserve to start with in my opinion.

What about the scrabble man returning

Any idea where Troy Batchelor May be heading after Oxford

Were Poole not giving after meeting rides to Brayden McGuiness late in the season ? Wondering if he was looking for/being considered for a spot.

I think only programmed rides count for averages. No R/R or heat 15 included.

Mine was doing that all day yesterday, but has worked fine this morning.

They can always drop 2, just saying
