Redcar 2026


Recommended Posts

I would be pretty happy with that team,strongest reserve pairing in the league maybe not as strong at the top end  with Jake Allen but I think a lot of teams will be weaker there with these new rules.

think those reserves could win you matches and worse case scenario one moves up then Mulford going to reserve would arguably be the strongest reserve in the league.

Should be challenging with a couple of other teams for the wooden spoon.  Jenkins and Allen didn't do much in their last stint with the bears.  

Jake Allen rode 2021 season for Redcar and averaged over 8!!If he repeats that,then I think most Bears fans would be happy?

Strength in depth could work .Not a bad Team.IMO.Thrte biggest trouble is that they don’t have big home track advantage.

While the team doesn't have the second heat leader strength of last year, it does have 3 "3rd heat leaders" so the 3/4 pairing should be strong. Very decent reserves, especially of they carry on improving.

Hard to judge till we see other teams complete, but see no reason they can't fight for the title.

I think it's a great team. Both 'newcomers' have previous spells at Redcar so it is a team that Bears fans can really identify with. In Edwards, Jenkins, Mulford, Scott and Pijper they have no less than five riders with significant potential for improvement. Just needs Allen to find his mojo.

I think the problem people have is the “ what we had” to “what we’ve got”. We have lost Danny King & Erik Riss and replaced them with Jake Allen & Jordan Jenkins, it’s just the initial optics tell you it’s not as good. Best analogy I can give is it’s like getting out of a Mercedes into a Skoda. Both equally capable of doing a good job but …
