Manifesto

Woffy will be back at Sheffield next year

Not even worth a bite this one 😉

Very unlucky Ipswich nobody gave them a chance and to be fair deserved to go through. King and Kvech falls cost them and a couple of terrible decisions from the ref yet again she needs sacking. Don’t think Sheffield or BV would celebrate like Leicester just have game face should still be on. Think both would beat Leicester over 2 legs

They certainly don’t like them he probably fancies his teams chances better against Leicester

Potentially could be a classic semi final also could be a disgrace if riders are missing for Poland. prediction Sheffield to go through by 8 points overall

Do the play offs count towards green sheet averages?

Would love to see Rowe at Sheffield in place of Howarth who desperately needs to go ride another track for a year (Leicester or Birmingham would suit him)

We have also missed Tai, he was our best rider away from home all season. Pickering has now hit his top form and I would have fancied us against Ipswich with Doyle and Emil over 2 legs with him in the team. All hindsight though we had the same last year losing Tai and Toby just before the play offs

Did feel like a bit of hollow victory, Jack and Picko unreal very fast tonight would have loved to see Sayfutdinov have a go with them both. The effort was there from all Ipswich riders but getting race wins was just so hard to come by. Fighting for second and third place against our reserves and an absolute woeful Kyle Howarth was best they could do. We’d have to ride pretty awful to lose by 20+ on Thursday just want to see some good racing more than anything and see Ipswich fight for some pride because they deserve to end their season with fight.

Ellis and Brennan will be hard to beat if they gate but would expect Jack and Chris to only drop a couple of points if the track is good

Hope we can fit him in for the 2025 plans he was probably our most consistent rider before his injury

You can’t judge a rider on one meeting that’s why we have averages 🫠

Lidsey and Brennan have had some good meetings at Owlerton and also some stinkers could be the key riders. Horrible to be relying on that many guests but I’m guessing Ipswich fans just want to see it close. Ellis 15 point max incoming? lol 52-38

Great effort from Jack once more. Howarth and reserves cost us in the end as most would have predicted. Hope they step it up for the play offs!

KING’S LYNN: Jan Kvech, Benjamin Basso R/R, Ben Cook, Connor Mountain, Niels-Kristian Iversen, Lewis Kerr, Anders Rowe. SHEFFIELD: Jack Holder, Kyle Howarth, Chris Holder, Josh Pickering, Tai Woffinden R/R, Jason Edwards, Joe Thompson. Looking at the lineups you’d fancy the KL reserves to score well I think if they score 10+ between them the stars will win comfortably. Picko had an absolute mare last time we visited can’t see him doing that in current form. The bonus point could be enough for Sheff to finish top so I’d be happy with us just keeping it close and coming back with no injuries ready to go into the cup final/play offs. 48-42 home win

Bizarre isn’t it. You can only beat what’s in front of you and until heat 9 there was very little fight in the BV team. The result was already cemented long before then and not very exciting for a neutral I'm sure

Always choose to see a full team out. Would have been a great match up with Doyle, Emil and Tai all riding

50-40 home wins both legs, Sheffield to win superheat with the Holder bro’s

After all the pile on over the Sheffield track are we going to discuss the joke that was served up last night? Or is Sheffield only track that’s allowed to be deemed dangerous? Both home and away riders couldn’t turn bike, riders falling through bends. Nicholls almost embarrassed to have to explain what was happening with the track on Eurosport

Pawlicki absolute disgrace

That was a perfect start from Jack whether he guessed it or not. Holder boys running riot

Track is naff as it usually is most meetings we visit. Edwards useless as per, Harrison not going to finish a race and Howarth isn’t interested. I’ll stick footy on

All slagging about dirt been allowed to build up on outside at owlerton and they serve this up

This track is an absolute disgrace both sets of riders can hardly turn bikes 😆
