redcar racing bears v Poole FTG pirates

[Biffa]

The next important thing for Wednesday night at Poole is who guests for Redcar or will it be R/R 🤷‍♂️

Just caught up with the stream. Another good performance from the boys lining us up nicely for the treble on Wednesday night. Let’s hope the wet weather predicted holds off. Though next Friday is predicted dry.

Charles Wright the meeting winner for Redcar. His best performance against us this season? Some of the Poole boys looked tired. Not surprising after the night before.

Think it was a hell of a performance considering the pressure cooker atmosphere of less than 24 hours earlier at Glasgow and the effort put in to win the League Play off. Can you imagine winning the FA Cup/Prem Lge or similar and having the players turn out 24 hours later for another final.

Riders etc had little time to prepare bikes & set ups  etc bearing in mind the also  3.5 hour drive from Glasgow assuming the riders didn't even touch home base most likely after the celebrations of Friday. Would have been happy even with an 8 point defeat after all that. No surprise some had a few mechanical gremlin after all that.

Fortunately a good few days to recover and sort out any issues and set ups for Wed last math of the season.

Very wet today and tomorrow, so if they manage to run on Weds I'd expect the track to be on the damp side. Which could help Redcar.

Redcar as the legendary boxing promoter Don King used to say have 2 chances. Slim and none and slim is outta town!

Poole surely have to move up next season a new challenge see if they can do it again in the top league.

I dont think you can compare the physical differences between sports but it was a good performance although the riders did not seem to be all guns blazing. Redcar have been a good team all season but certain riders have dropped off a little probably due to having to cope with Riss missing most of the season. 

Kerr was unlucky not to get heat 15, he was beaten once all night on his favourite track. Lawson was poor by his high standards and should have been left out.

Yes Poole don't like it wet. Better take some dirt off the track to prepare for the forecast wet conditon on Wednesday afternoon (according to the Met Office for Poole)  

Or maybe an early call off to wait for sunny conditions. ??

Where does this Poole don't like it wet come from?

I've seen Poole win away when track was wet and home team weren't interested but Poole got stuck in 🤷
