Don’t be too sure with Gary Havelock helping him out🤔. Read that he’s been given a 6.00 point championship average so it’s a big gamble for anyone at this stage of the season.

Yellow Met office warning for thunder & lightning been issued from 2-9 pm. 🤞 it misses the track area.

Can’t see Redcar doing that personally, but you never know🤷‍♂️. Did it before a few year back, but it’s not really Redcars style. Anyway Simon has his new race suit so he won’t be going anywhere soon😂. Personally, if the promotion came out & said something along the lines of” sorry we messed up team building this year, the 1 rider over 8 point average messed us up. We tried a different way, it hasn’t worked so stick by us and we will sort it for next year”. Something like that would hopefully calm the fans and let the riders relax a bit. It’s not as though it’s the first time we’ve challenged for the wooden spoon is it 🤷‍♂️

Well that’s 1 wildcard accounted for then 😉

Jason Garritty ready to go & offering his services 😮🪖🪖

Ok, French born then😂 makes him French-ish🤣

Adam Ellis then 👍

Redcar 1 to 5 getting some justified stick, but IMO the team manager is getting an easy ride. Our reserves scored 49 out of 89 points over 2 legs and weren’t used enough, IMO. How Jake Allen got 4 rides last night is remarkable. If the two reserves were good enough for a hear 15 each, they are good enough for a heat 13, im sure. 2 good meetings to watch, a bit of everything in it but thank heavens for Redcars 2 reserves.

I also think that no Tac subs works in Redcars favour, as we have good cover lower down to pack the minor placed

Personally I think Redcar need 10 points lead tonight. Saying that, it wouldn’t surprise me if we only won by 4 and still went through. We are an absolutely unpredictable team at the moment. Plymouth could come and win by 10 as well. How’s that for sitting on the fence 😂😂

No Tac Subs either, usually makes a difference if a rider not on it & only reserve change allowed

Danish fixture I believe, all above board. Jamie Swales mentioned it in the Speedway Star this week

Massive confidence boost for Nicolai ahead of the away match at Oxford 👍. Oh, forgot he’s not riding in that one either🙈

Putting 2+2 together & probably getting 5. Have heard other names but after JJ post today & Simons last night, who knows. Need someone for Friday though.

Just waiting for Simon Lambert to be announced🤷‍♂️

Could Redcar re introduce Charles Wright again & keep Nicolai Klindt? Great if they could but doesn’t sit right with me personally🤷‍♂️( Redcar Fan)

So like the question I asked earlier, can you sign a second rider over 8 points? Has Rob been stopped from doing this? Or does nobody else want to sign for Scunthorpe🤷‍♂️.

So on the strengthening subject, I don’t know averages current or start of year, I presume All Teams could only do a like for like or re-declare. So for example using Scunthorpe as the example as we are on their thread,they couldn’t sign anyone over an 8 point average, as that would make 2riders over 8. So in theory all signings must now be 7.99 or under, unless you’re dropping your No1?

And Redcar have already knocked them out of the KOC, but if revenge maybe. Also would be 2 Friday night teams if it was Redcar v Edinburgh.

Showing my age 🙈🤣

Could Dan Gilkes replace Shane Bowes though? I know it’s a straight swap for Kyle Newman as it was an injury replacement, but it would need a team re-declaration back to 40 points if Bowes was dropped, I think 🤷‍♂️. Do Poole have the space, average wise to swap Bowes/Gilkes?

Well it’s a long way back to Glasgow, Cami will have plenty of time to mull those thoughts over.

So with this being a FIM/GB meeting I expect he will be missing on the Friday night due to practice etc as per FIM meetings?

Shame about Charles getting injured last night, but not the first & wont be the last unfortunately to have it happen. Short & long term replacements are going to be hard to find I think. Drew Kemp & Nikolai Klindt spring to mind, or a fresh foreign signing in the hope he comes good very quickly. Oh the joys of promotion/management🙈
