Should be a tough challenge for the Bears, hope we will just have the edge but should be a good meeting.

Good looking side. Good top end, delighted to see Riss back. Hume is solid second string and Edwards should be one of top reserves in the league. Mulford looks to be one of the better 2 pointers, and was excellent up here in the Under 19 Final.

Does Broc Nicol fit?

Shame to see Lewi and Jordan leaving, good luck to both!

He was superb tonight. Gated reslly well, made a couple of good passes and rode some great defensive lines when in front. Could be a bargain for someone on a 2pt average next season.

Congratulations to Poole, deserved winners and should win it all this year. Ben Cook has generally gone well here and superb tonight. Only the heatleader really showed up for the Bears but still some decent racing. Roll on next season!

We are just down from second bend and did not see anything at all really, had us scratching our heads. Poole blew us away in those first few heats really, need the second strings to come up with something!

Not entirely sure what happened there. Bears (Kerr and Jenkins aside) were shocking for first half of meeting. Lawson was an inspired guest and Roynon was absolutely superb - best I have seen him in years. Fair play to the Bears though, showed up in last three heats especially. Super comeback. Not sure it will be enough but would have snapped your hands off for the chance after heat 12

Apologies I was not massively clear in my post - my remarks were more around abusing Cook but I can see it is not clear at all. Original post made it sound as if the whole stadium was booing. Sadly, you get a few idiots everywhere but i agree that should definitely not happen. Definitely added a bit of spice to a night that had pretty much everything!

That is 100% categorically untrue and I was good about 10 metres away. Craig's dad stormed in and told Wright to f*ck off, which upset some Redcar fans who had a go at Craig's dad. Team Manager then stormed in effing and blinding at everyone and did receive a barrage back.from the fans. Fault from both sides in my eyes, some fans did not help the situation I admit. At absolutely no point was Cook himself subject to any abuse whatsoever, and his ambulance was applauded off the track and I will happily go to any court in the land to testify to that.

Really enjoyed that. Jenkins was superb, great pass of Worrall on one heat then same again heat 15 to pass Morris, no mean feat! Edwards also superb in main body - if we can get Bickley going (who rode ok tonight) we could do ok in playoffs. Thought Howarth was excellent as always here, Morris good and Mountain seemed to improve as night went on. Worrall was disappointing.

Another super meeting, not sure the scoreline quite reflects the good racing. Kerr and Riss were spectacular but big shout out to Edwards with I think paid ten in the main body. Harris was spectacular but lacking speed, Flint started well but tailed off a bit and Knudsen showed great promise. Also great to see Lyden and Kileen not too badly hurt after that crash in the second half, looked a scary one!

Really enjoyable meeting, well deserved point for Oxford. Ruml was excellent and pretty much everyone had at least one good ride. Batchelor started on fire and despite not winning a race Nicholls was good value. Wright and Riss excellent for Bears and Kerr had his moments. Thought Roynon had a decent meeting, and Edwards maybe deserved more for his efforts. Need to be better in the playoffs, but went home thoroughly entertained

Agree with Year by - easily best meeting here so far this year with some great racing. Was astonished when the ref gave the win to Riss - looked half a bike behind from where we stand. Also enjoyed Morris then marching to the start gate and ripping the tapes off in protest! Andersen was probably the difference tonight, and great ride in his last one from Roynon as well. Thankfully for us Jorgensen was a bit off form as could have went either way then. I'm now off to warm up!

Hard to read too much into that really. No idea what BWD was doing wiping out Roynon after heat 1. Very poor. Clegg rode well for the Diamonds and was the main threat alongside Wright. Complin showed enough that he will do OK I think. Kerr was never going to be beaten if not for bike issues, and all three heat leaders looked good. Roynon did well, and impressed with the reserves - Edwards deserved more for his efforts. Cant really read too much into this I don't think - but should be a good battle for the Bears number 1 spot this year.

I think that is fair - he was always on the pace and there or thereabouts but maybe a touch tentative compared to his last visit. I think Schlein has been a bit hit and miss here in the last - definitely miss tonight.

Great meeting, in front of a great crowd with a great atmosphere. Thought Poole had the meeting wrapped up if I am honest, but Bears found their gating gloves when it mattered most. Thought Basso looked good, I think his heat win was the quickest time of the night? When he gets settled in should be a trump card for Poole. Schlein was poor, and thankfully for us Cook was a shadow of the rider who guested for us. Three Bears heat leaders were solid, and Rowe again good at reserve. Some very decent races in the second half as well, Kelly v Blair on a couple of occasions produced some great stuff.

Should be a cracker this - Poole look strong especially if Cook rides as he did on his last visit here. If Wright rides like he did on Monday night we may just edge it but looking forward to what should be a great meeting.

This is probably of very little consolation to Poole fans but Cook was absolutely superb at a track I believe he has never seen before.

To be fair, your first post on this specifically blames the Redcar promotion..

Good interview with Jitendra on feedback from supporters survey amongst other things:

Riss won't fit for the Bears unfortunately (without dropping anyone) http://www.redcar-speedway.com/2021/03/26/the-search-goes-on/

The likes of Mountain and Rowe would give us one strong reserve.
