Gazc Posted June 21, 2015 Report Share Posted June 21, 2015 (edited) Really enjoyed today and the witches fully deserved there point really pushed us all the way, Tungate is a real enigma though witches fans must pull there hair out with him and I won't mention Hawkins. Â For us everyone chipping in Nick starting really slowly but came to the party when it mattered his heat 13 was awesome stalking Tungate for 3 laps before a final bend outside swoop brilliant race. Â Well done to both teams and thankfully no injuries. Edited June 21, 2015 by Gazc 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

highroad119 Posted June 21, 2015 Report Share Posted June 21, 2015 Track seemed to catch out a fair few riders today, glad we got through it with no major incident. Afraid around 12 races ftg didnt do much for entertainment value. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MD Posted June 21, 2015 Report Share Posted June 21, 2015 get rid of tungate and Hawkins and we could actually win meetings. Â Absolutely brilliant effort from the rest I've said before Tungate is unreliable and so it proves again, another point from him or a third place from Hawkins would of given Ipswich a draw they probably deserved. Â Glasgow were there for the taking today, as the track became slicker the Witches came into their own around ht8, adapted to the changing conditions and gated like demons courtesy of Manzares, Nielsen and the impressive Covatti. Â For several weeks now Morris has come out for ht1, been unhappy with his bike, returned to make changes and just made the 2 minutes. Its time to change that and be better prepared. One point from your opening two rides isn't good enough for a No1 at home. Last week as this wasn't a surprise, we need to be better at home. Howe had a difficult afternoon on his debut mainly because he didn't gate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
george.m Posted June 21, 2015 Report Share Posted June 21, 2015 Squeaky bum towards the end today and Ipswich deserved more. Have said it before and will say it again, we seem to have an issue with killing meetings off at home when we have a lead. Thought we missed James today, and perhaps today was an indication of things to come once he returns and is in the main body of the team.

dontforgetthefueltapsbruv Posted June 21, 2015 Report Share Posted June 21, 2015 Ipswich could have won it if silly points were not thrown away.that sums up the whole season for me! Shouldnt really be disappointed with a point at Glasgow but.....  Thats the frustration for a Witches fan!!

george.m Posted June 21, 2015 Report Share Posted June 21, 2015 Got my "Hump at the Dump" DVD today, even the fact that it doesn't work in the DVD player doesn't spoil my viewing! Worth every penny just to hear the "impartial" commentary. Heat 14 and it takes to the 4th lap before it's acknowledged there's any Tigers in the race, never mind their on a 5-1. Even resorts to a bit of refereeing. Heat 15 and he's pure choking from the start! Â Just love it! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â Awh Mr B and Young51, don't take it so bad when Scotland's wee diddy team beats the all conquering Champions! I've had plenty of experience of Derby match defeats and you do get over it .... eventually. Anyways, it's good practice for you when we have the sequel later this year ....

Paulco Posted June 21, 2015 Report Share Posted June 21, 2015 That was a pretty entertaining meeting . Wee Nick's ride in heat 13 was worth the admission alone . So glad he rides for us I'm pissed by the way , certain couple of Birmingham fans saw to that haha End of the day , I don't care about rule books and speedway's red tape , I just want to watch four riders on a track . And heat 13 today , Nick Morris take a bow son , that was amazing 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spanner47 Posted June 22, 2015 Report Share Posted June 22, 2015 As others have said, we had to wait until heat 13 to get a pass, and that was only because the hapless Tungate rode the wrong line and let Mr Popular go around him. Once again our new Manager made all the right calls all Weekend and was let down, but no doubt 1 or 2 will still blame him for 2 more defeats. We lost 3 points due to reruns, as we were leading when the race was stopped, but had that not happened then we wouldn't have used the double anyway, so I don't recall us throwing away many points, only Tungate in 13 was a chuck away. So we've got 4 riders doing their stuff, 2 not, and one coming back very soon. I'm sure the Hawful Hawkins is doing all he can to sort things out, and hopefully he soon will, but Tungate is a worry, I just hate it when he goes into the bend like a novice who's just switched from grasstrack, or has he always done that? Â Really liked the improvements made to the stadium, I hope the owners get rewarded with bigger crowds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
