Roger Jacobs Posted April 4, 2013 Report Share Posted April 4, 2013 A tough match, with the Devils looking much more balanced than previous visits. Be interesting to see what Kling does at this level. No frost last night. We've had some light snow flurries this morning, but nothing drastic. It will be very cold!

dontforgetthefueltapsbruv Posted April 4, 2013 Report Share Posted April 4, 2013 On the face of it two very similar sides and a toughtest for the Witches. Key men I see as Morten and Kling. The winner of that personal head to head may well be the difference in the final score. Witches to win by 6 - 10 points. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ellioth4 Posted April 4, 2013 Report Share Posted April 4, 2013 Preview for this meeting below: Devils Are Next Targets For Witches The Ipswich 'Sackers' Witches return to their normal Thursday race night this week and will face the Plymouth 'St Blazey MX, Drive Revive' Devils in a League Cup fixture. Plymouth have a new promotion and a new-look team this year. Ty Proctor replaces Ben Barker in the number one slot and the experienced Mark Lemon has joined them from Newcastle. They will be ably supported by skipper Cory Gathercole, Swede Ricky Kling and ex-witch Chris Schramm who always gives 110%. After two tough meetings against Rye House over Easter weekend the Ipswich riders now have a few laps under their belts and number one Ben Barker will be extra keen to lead his team to victory over the team he rode for last year! Witches team manager Pete Simmons is expecting stronger opposition from the Devils this year but is targeting all three League Cups points to ensure his team progress in this competition. Ipswich Speedway Supporters Club would like to remind under 16's that they can still join the Junior Witches for the early season discount price of £4 if they sign up on Thursday.

Brujas Espanolas Posted April 4, 2013 Report Share Posted April 4, 2013 Tonights meeting in cancelled due to the snow and possible freezing conditions this evening. sorry folks! :-( Taking from Twitter. BBC Suffolk are reporting that the meeting hasn't been cancelled, but rather postponed. It is intended that the meeting will take place at some time in future, although a restaging date has yet to be arranged. I hope this helps. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
