oldtimer Posted August 22, 2013 Report Share Posted August 22, 2013 (edited) The last time Ben Barker was here with Ipswich he said he would have done better if Somerset had put some dirt on the track and he would bring a different bike next time. That was back in April and Rebels won by 20 points, I cannot see the score being any different on Friday. Unfortunately, being a Friday, rain is forecast from late afternoon, hopefully just showers. Ladbrokes are offering odds on this match, it's even money Barker gets punched by someone. Edited August 22, 2013 by oldtimer 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dontforgetthefueltapsbruv Posted August 22, 2013 Report Share Posted August 22, 2013 The Witches season has turned around a bit since that first visit and now they need to prove they can do it at a track where it is not easy to avoid a pasting. Would be estatic to see a point come back to Suffolk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Blue Posted August 22, 2013 Report Share Posted August 22, 2013 Here endeth the " at least a point from every away meeting scenario " We are gonna get battered big time ! The Rebels really are the form team at the moment and I don't see us even getting close im afraid ! As always I would be ecstatically happy to be proved wrong and eat a huge slice of humble pie but I can't see it happening . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dontforgetthefueltapsbruv Posted August 23, 2013 Report Share Posted August 23, 2013 Would be very suprised if it did, Home win... So would I but I am expecting a much more competitive performance. I will go for 52 - 40 but hope for a Worky type turnaround. Up the Witches!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baldyman Posted August 23, 2013 Report Share Posted August 23, 2013 (edited) I see a fair few 5-1 against us tonight, our new riding order away from home doesn't look good to me. But with a good tactical ride, think we may only lose by 16 Edited August 23, 2013 by Baldyman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely Ipswich have a better chance of winning tonight than Belle Vue had at Swindon last night. Anything can happen in Speedway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gusworld Posted August 23, 2013 Report Share Posted August 23, 2013 I think the Witches are probably the best opposition we have had down the OTA for several weeks so could be a close match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anything can happen in Speedway Depends how many bikes the Somerset riders have in the pits and the income they are getting Also wonder if Risagers bikes will be quick enough for Doyle tonight aswell?

oldtimer Posted August 23, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2013 Didn't attend this match as a number of local weather forecasts said showers turning heavy by 8pm. Thought I had made wrong decision as not raining at home, but as it turned out it was correct decision. Unfortunately Mrs OT is watching Master Chef and can't stand it. However have purchased a copy of FIM Speedway GP 4 and it's pretty good, although I crash a lot, but will keep me amused. It's only 97 pence from a well known Weston-S-Mare computer shop, but have to order on line and collect. At that price you can't go wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
