Bellers101 Posted 9 hours ago Report Share Posted 9 hours ago The Scunthorpe rejects lost that meeting for Redcar at Glasgow tonight. Replacing Jenkins with Lambert is surely the worst decision in the history of Redcar speedway! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beat me to it the Redcar management have to full responsibility for completely derailing Redcars season. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fortythirtyeight Posted 8 hours ago Report Share Posted 8 hours ago Lost count of how many times the Bears have looked comfortable for a win only to collapse towards the end. Allen, Edwards, Mulford just too inconsistent and Lambert a total non contributor again. Scott has to be ‘ Bear of the year ‘ and Pijper has had a good season, keep them and Wright but move the others on for 2027. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately for the Bears, due to a lack of heat leaders, they will always be vulnerable away from home. Six-point lead with four heat to go, and to get beat by six is pretty dismal, but to be fair, The two young lads, Scott and Pijper did you proud. Lambert, less said the better!

NC86 Posted 8 hours ago Report Share Posted 8 hours ago Yes as I suspected that’s the final nail in Redcars season , the match kind of portrayed the whole season lack of top end strength at the business end of the season , a team full of middle order riders prepared to plod on. Like some of these posts I agree that the only two riders exempt are wright and Scott , wright whose season was destroyed in the first meet (stop this stupid curtain raiser with Newcastle, they don’t exist ) and Scott the only rider to show any improvement from last season , the no two 8 point rider rule screwed us over and we seemed to be the only side to suffer but nevertheless Jake Allan has been a very very poor substitute for Danny king. Apart from a total collapse at Berwick at least we have a BSN final to look forward to but if it’s Poole ( the competition has dragged on that long ) I don’t fancy our chances. Hey ho the footy season starts tomorrow, perhaps my other team ‘The Boro’ can do us proud and bring the region the success it so richly deserves. Lick your wounds Redcar and be more creative with team building next year instead of the same same old , it’s not working or improving. Take a punt like Scunthorpe did. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MD Posted 8 hours ago Report Share Posted 8 hours ago Glasgow helped you out massively by preparing a ridiculously deep track to try and unsettle Redcar, only for it to have the opposite effect. When the track came good after ht10 so did Glasgow. I don't see Jenkins making any material difference to the scoreline had he been there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noelinho Posted 8 hours ago Report Share Posted 8 hours ago Jody Scott is always great to watch. I enjoyed seeing him tonight and was very pleased to see him win heat one. He was the only away rider to knock a point off Bomber tonight and he did it by passing him twice. With so much attention on Cairns and Rushen, I really don’t think he gets the praise he’s due. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glasgow had to drop Dan Thompson and spread the points across two 5.00 middle orders riders which hasn't worked. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike baker Posted 8 hours ago Report Share Posted 8 hours ago Edwards, Allen and Mulford far to inconsistent. Edwards in particular. Total enigma. His best performances. When he guests. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When the track came good after ht10 so did Glasgow. I don't see Jenkins making any material difference to the scoreline had he been there. The Glasgow track was prepared almost exactly the same as last Friday, which also resulted in a big track grade after heat 4, scraping shale off on to the mini track. Glasgow have been preparing deeper tracks at the request of the Tigers riders, but the last 2 weeks have seen riders from both teams struggle to turn their bikes in the early heats, hence the remedial work after heat 4 (I'm not an expert on track prep so I'm not even going to suggest what went wrong). What I can say though is the track prep had nothing to do with Redcar being in town. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jenkins would have scored more than Lambert so would have made a difference. Silly statement. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
