[Fromafar]

Well done to Bears,some decent racing.To the Wimborne Rd haters was there much passing after the back straight on 1st lap on one of the best tracks in the League.🤔

Redka will do well to secure a small home win with their weakened side.

They will take a thumping at Wimborne’s road of a track now devoid of dirt. 
 

Poole to win the treble…..the home fans will be deliriously happy. Matt will be counting his cash £££.

Decent meeting with a few good races on a good racetrack.

Good result despite Lawson's bike troubles. 

Thought Lewis Kerr deserved heat 15 and Danny King did too.

Game over Redcar needed a 14pt lead as a minimum.

There wasn’t much passing after lap 1, a couple I think at most. But there hasn’t been in the streams I’ve watched in the last few months. Weather plays a part but not been great. I’m not a Wimborne Road hater btw.
 

Thought Charles should have been off 4 in Heat 15 but it’s pretty immaterial anyway.

Yeah, a few decent races but mainly from the gate. Leon Flint did comment afterwards it was a shame there hasn't been much dirt the last few weeks. 

Pretty clear it's not enough, but still nice to end with a home win. Didn't feel like anyone was really excellent or really poor for either side really. A touch surprised King was not in 15 but Edwards had been doing well after a poor first ride.

Redcars first signing for next season should be someone who knows how to water a track. Never seen a water bowser being driven around without actually putting any water down !

Half decent match otherwise, mainly because the score was close , not a lot of overtaking after first lap as not a lot of grip, just dust.

Thought Scott tried his hardest for little reward and Mulford was fast when he gated. Kerr showed why he likes the place and Pirates have done enough for the deserved treble.

Yeah and Lewi Kerr should have been in for Rich Lawson. He  had beaten Charles in heat 10 and Jason in heat 12.

Yeah rather strangely there was dust from the get go too.

I thought Poole done well to keep the deficit to 2 points tonight when you consider the tension and excitement of last night. It's looking like consecutive trebles for the Pirates which is some achievement. The consistency of performance at the business end from their top 4 in particular has been very impressive.

I was thinking of something more alcoholic. A lot of celebrating to do.

Well my bookie wont like me - a small home win it was, now forthe thumping at Poole's dusty road. 

 

I am just hoping ti dont rain coz Poole dont like it wet. 

 

Been around in speedway for over 65 years, it aint over till the fat lady sings.

Just enjoyed my celebration cooked brekkie at the Premier Inn Middlesbrough. Ok we didn't win the 1st leg but just the 2 points in it sets the Treble up nicely.

Fair play to Redcar for winning fair and square. And a nice welcome from the announcer to the Pirates ☠️ sat in the 'royal box'. 

Great effort by the Pirates despite their mechanical issues.

All set up nicely for Wednesday at WINborne Road 👍

C'mon the Boyzzz ☠️ 💪 

*Had 2 celebration flat white's ☕☕ 😀
