Little Nicki Posted April 23, 2016 Report Share Posted April 23, 2016 Can only see a Sheffield win by about 6. Seen Witches twice against Scunthorpe and it confirmed my view that they were a poor 1 - 7 where if one of the 1 - 5 had an off night, there would be problems. I predicted that they would finish near the bottom of the PL at the end of this season. Reserves were very poor choices and, even though the Tigers Reserves aren't great, they will outscore Pizza Man and Richie Rich tonight and one of either Kerr or Risager will have an off night. Those two both need to score well at the same time for Ipswich to win. 42 - 48. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheScotsman Posted April 23, 2016 Report Share Posted April 23, 2016 Nah don't think so. Ippo win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baldyman Posted April 23, 2016 Report Share Posted April 23, 2016 (edited) Mmmmm not so sure. Howarth isn't great at ipswich and I doubt very much that berge will score like he does at home. This fixture means nothing to either team so maybe both will take it easier than normal. Edited April 23, 2016 by baldyman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gavan Posted April 23, 2016 Report Share Posted April 23, 2016 Fancy us to win tonight. Reserves are an issue obviously but i fancy our middle order to outscore theres, plus not really sure that Steady is on top form. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You do remember Stead's awful accident last year and knew that he was knocked off by his own team mate in the SRBF and then signed off with concussion? Give the guy a break. He's too classy not to hit top form soon. Could be tonight. Howarth is a different rider this season, oozing class. Witches could be in for a dunking tonight. Will they sink or be found guilty? You're a betting man Gav, what odds do you give me on 42 - 48? Enjoy your speedway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Blue Posted April 23, 2016 Report Share Posted April 23, 2016 Well, I'm just looking forward to seeing some speedway as all I've seen so far due to holiday then illness is the God awful Scunny meeting at home. As far as any improvement is concerned we will just have to wait and see. As others have said it's now a pretty meaningless fixture but I hope it's a decent meeting with some good racing.

Im just saying he isnt banging in the big scores so hopefully King and Covatti can nullify his scoring power. Howarth tends to struggle at our place but Garrity goes ok. I think we will sneak this and yes im going Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guess you are easy to spot at Foxhole, being dressed in drag and bickering with your best bud Starman. Enjoy your speedway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Siggytastic Posted April 23, 2016 Report Share Posted April 23, 2016 Just got off the sunbed beside the pool in Lanzarote. Well hot. I can't remember many meetings that Stead has rode down here so if there is grip in the track, I going for a 8 point win to the Witches. Updates will get some hits this evening.

Reviresco Posted April 23, 2016 Report Share Posted April 23, 2016 Just checking how heat 2 has gone! Whoop, whoop. You were right in keeping the faith Scotsman. If he scores in Heat 7, he will be the new local hero. Forza Paco! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesB Posted April 23, 2016 Report Share Posted April 23, 2016 A good win by a decent margin considering King had an average night and Kerr didn't score in his first two outings. Great to see Paco getting a win and six in total, you could really see what it meant to him. Also, well done to Sarjeant who is starting to look like a good signing. I thought Josh Bates looked good for Sheffield. Crowd seemed to be decent as well and probably a hundred or two above the Thursday average. I can see Saturday becoming the race night if the Elite league picks Thursday as one of its set nights. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2ndbendbeerhut Posted April 23, 2016 Report Share Posted April 23, 2016 (edited) Rule 15.14.1 If a rider is disqualified for an offence under Art 15.3 (A Starting offence is committed where if a riders motorcycle touches or breaks the tapes while the Green Starting Light is on) or a non-disqualified rider is unable to take part in a re-run (FN) then the place may be taken by a Reserve or another qualified rider. So why was James Sarjeant put of 15m in heat 15? Good job it didn't matter! Anyways it was a good meeting and well done to both Sarj on a great display and Paco for 1st heat win and another paid win. BTW it was Baltic! Edited April 23, 2016 by 2ndbendbeerhut Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baldyman Posted April 23, 2016 Report Share Posted April 23, 2016 (edited) I did predict our reserves would outscore theirs tonight, clever me.

Also Saturdays won't happen whilst there are still stock cars around.. . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
