Ipswich Witches V Berwick Bandits Pl 31-7-14 @ 7-30 Pm


Recommended Posts

Where is this fable about Richie Worrall being missing coming from?

 

He is listed in Witches' teams logged with BSPA for Thursday and Friday.

 

Only rider not available for this meeting is Gino Manzares.

Official reserve for Team GB at the SWC.

The team fly out on Wednesday and I and many others are assuming/expecting he will be there and not at Foxhall/OTA.

 

Edit - I hope smod is right and Richie is in the Witches team.

Looking forward to my first visit to Ipswich, I'm not going to make any predictions!

 

Enjoy your trip, hope Berwick can bring a point or two back from their trips to Ipswich and then Scunthorpe, its going to be tough though.

I think spread betting needs to be brought in to meetings at Foxhall as we have absolutely no idea which Witches are gonna turn up ! Some teams home results are pretty predictable but that certainly doesn't apply to Ipswich .

 

Anywhere between 55-35 and 35-55 would be my best guess , im not going to try and predict anything .

No fishing rod , I just haven't got a Scooby Doo what the outcome is going to be with this one and im sure alot of locals would agree we me .

 

Obviously we desperately need all the league points we can get but as you can tell from my previous post im not exactly full of confidence at the moment !

It was just that you guessed 55-35 to. 35-55, then said you couldn't predict the score!! ;-)

I would be very surprised if Ipswich don't take all. 3 points here

So when is a world cup reserve not a reserve?

The only thing I can think of is that because we dont have to name the team (GB) until the day before the final he isnt 'signed up' officially for the SWC as he hasnt ridden.

But that doesnt tally up with the regs that have been stated elsewhere!

Good news for us Witches - just hope theres not a last minute switch.

Wouldn't surprise me if he not allowed to ride for the Witches. ........

I was surprised the preview was so short. Wouldve expected it to make a point that Richie was there before joining Team GB but not a mention at all.

Unless of course he wont be but everyone will only find out at 7.30 on Thursday!

Needs clarification ASAP IMO.

Perhaps the official reserve for the World cup final isn't tied by the same rules as the riders in the team or alternatively Richie no longer fills that role , we may never know .

 

Now that the situation appears to be clear we can look forward to the meeting without further speculation ( hopefully ) .

 

Ultimately we just need the 3 league points from this meeting and a win by 7 points will do me fine .

Found it odd that on Sky monday, Simon Stead was at the meeting but they had to use a guest for him.

Stead wasn't allowed to ride as he was already signed into the SWC , riders aren't allowed to compete whilst their country is still in the completion

can anyone tell me who is the gb reserve for saturday at the world cup.

 

just seem it. worra is the reserve , so should be going out with the world cup team on wed. then again, with him onlt being a reserve. if he gets injured, there is plenty more average riders to fill the gap.like cook etc.
