Parr: Bring the noise!
REDCAR boss Gavin Parr has urged the club’s ‘fantastic’ supporters to ‘bring the noise’ ahead of Redcar’s crunch 2nd leg MAXiCab KO Cup quarter final against Berwick. The Bears face a 4 point deficit against the Bandits tomorrow night with tapes up at 7:30pm at the ECCO Arena.
The passionate team boss knows how big of a part the fans will play if the Bears are to qualify. Parr said, “ Our fans have been superb so far this season but we will need them to be our 8th man tomorrow night as this will be no easy task.”
Parr has also confirmed both Redcar reserves will return to the fold tomorrow night after their nasty crash last Friday. Parr said, “ Both Ace Pijper and Tom Spencer have declared themselves fit so it will be good to have them both back.”
The former rider turned manager knows the 2nd leg will be a tough test. Parr said, “ I’m under no illusions that we are in for a tough test, Berwick are one of the dark horses this season for me.”
Parr knows the importance of starting fast with Redcar starting 47-43 down on aggregate. Parr said, “ We obviously need to start fast and aim to get into a lead of our own and then start to put some distance between us and the Bandits.”
The boss also heaped praise on the club captain and Redcar legend Charles Wright. Parr said, “Charles has been superb, he is in such great form which is great for us and the club.”
Redcar also welcome back Erik Riss from Grand Prix duty. Meanwhile, the Bandits are at full strength with their boss Stewart Dickson opting to move Sam Hagon to number four whilst Drew Kemp lines up at number three.
Fans who cannot attend the ECCO Arena are reminded that the meeting will be live streamed by our streaming partners Tapes Up Productions at www.redcar-speedway.tv
