Shadders

You're lucky you don't get to see them at home Cliff. Youd've been bored to death tonight. The place was flat, no atmosphere, expecting another one sided meeting and it was duly delivered with little effort. That's three visits to the OTA in 2014 and we've managed to score just 74 points. I'm just thankful I don't have to go again this year.

Watching Anders tonight you can see he's riding well within himself, not surprisingly with a steel rod in his spine. Steve looks well down on power and really needs to get his kit sorted if he wasn't to stay in the Premier League next year. Jason Garrity is giving it a go, but we're really making them look better than they are. Even the crowd are flat tonight. Absolutely no atmosphere whatsoever. They're as bored as I am.The only rider that would've made em work for their points hadn't turned up.

John Sampford phoned three different riders to guest, none wanted to come

Rider replacement for Kennett

Don't go to Ding Wah whatever you do!!!

You're better off stopping at George's in Stanstead Road, less than 5 minutes from the track.

Why the hold up between the parade and heat one?

I don't recall saying it was unfair or unjust. You must be thinking of someone else. It's not as if this in an important fixture for us. Wooden spoon looks nailed on

Only other clash I can see is Redcar away. Tres was missing every other weekend.

I had to Tweet Anders myself to have it confirmed. It's really not good enough for a professional sports team in the 21st century

Same as WHB, I'm going, but don't know why. Anders riding for his Swedish side tonight. Apparently the Swedish speedway authorities insist he has to prioritise his home country. Will probably be missing Redcar away too. It'll be an absolute slaughter tonight. Ipswich will hit 60 with ease against a depleted, demoralised Rockets side. Interestingly nothing about the team changes on either the Rye House Website or Twitter.

Don't think I'll bother

All that beer hasn't pickled your brain I see

Last five away scores have been 38, 35, 38, 38 & 38

I've never heard of a pregnant woman who didn't put on weight.

Oh dear!!

Ipswich will be failing if they don't hit 55 points.

You're really taking this seriously aren't you

Garrity is too hit and miss. Anders is still feeling his way back in after his injury. Somerset will hit 55 a least, but probably nearer 60

It's the same practically everywhere sadly

Where did all these big crowds go?

He was only signed last year cos his dad paid for the team kevlars and if rumours were to believed contributed significantly to the bonus points the riders earned. Looks a little injury prone to me.

Starved of speedway for a while they were bound to, but after a while people want more than that.

I've no doubt it will be. By the looks of the weather forecast the ritual slaughter could be out off for a while longer

There's certainly a better vibe around this year, but Berwick are light years away from winning anything. A play off place will be a real success for them as well as a decent showing against the Moanarchs next week. That is in effect Berwicks cup final.
