Roynon: We can set the cat amongst the pigeons!
Redcar’s newest reserve, Adam Roynon believes Redcar can set the cat amongst the pigeons at Glasgow this evening, (19:30 start at Ashfield) as the Bears go in search of more league points to secure an end of season play-off berth.
The Cumbrian said, “We can absolutely do the business at Glasgow and set the cat amongst the pigeons. I spoke to a group of Glasgow fans on Zoom this week and I said we can potentially go to Ashfield and do what Poole did to us at home and take all 4 league points! I really believe we can go away from home to a big club and take the honours.”
The three time Bear drops to reserve this month due to the new greensheet averages with Jason Edwards moving into the number 2 berth after his scintillating start to the 2022 season.
Roynon also dismissed that his side will gain any confidence from the recent up and down form of Glasgow’s number 1, Craig Cook. “Craig can come out and score a 15 point maximum if the right Craig Cook turns up. Additionally, our boys will have to be on top of their game to match him or beat him.”
The former Coventry star believes winning at the 2021 SGB Championship runners up will take a real team effort, “It takes 7 riders to win a meeting and admittedly, that is a problem we have been having so far this season. We all must remember, Rome wasn’t built in a day but I do believe when we all hit form we will be very tough to beat home and away.”
The Tigers, who currently sit 3rd in the table, 7 points ahead of the Bears are at full strength for the clash with Craig Cook returning to the saddle after his frightening heat 1 crash with Nick Morris at Ashfield seven days ago. Redcar are also at full strength for the league clash as they welcome back Kasper Andersen who missed last week’s challenge fixture against the Diamonds due to a Danish commitment.
