Ipswich V Scunthorpe Championship 11-5-17@7-30pm


Recommended Posts

Wouldn't be a surprise to me if this was a similar result to last week for opposite reasons. Glasgow's top 3 all scored well which helped them take a point, Nielsen at reserve should clean up for Scunny which could well see them take something also.

 

Especially as Greaves hasn't had a ride at Foxhall yet this season and has had far fewer meetings around here than Nielsen in general so that'll keep things close(ish) I think.

According to Ipswich's website Scunthorpe are using R/R for Wilkinson. Did he sustain an injury in the awful looking crash with Robson at Sheffield last Thursday?

Glad someone is advertising it Scunthorpes has no mention of this match.

Both the website and twitter updated with Wilko’s absence by 9am this morning, which I think is plenty of time for a meeting which starts at 7.30pm this evening. Sorry, if I wasn’t awake at 2am this morning to update it, but some of us have to work and therefore need to sleep at night ;)

 

All the best

How did I forget? I added the information about Wilko as soon as I had it this morning. This isn’t someone hanging around 24 hours a day to add information, so if a rider has to pull out of a meeting late in the day, quite often it’s going to be the next morning before the news is announced.

 

Dick, as you’re someone closely associated with a club, I thought you would have known better, but obviously not.

 

All the best

As someone who is closely associated with a club I knew when it was released by Ipswich on "Tuesday"

 

I thought as a clubs press officer you would be clearly up to date with developments of your team, but obviously not.

As far as I am aware, they were leaving it as late as possible for Carl to commit or not to tonight's meeting as he scored well there last year & now it weakens us. Douglas is the rider above in averages with Nielsen & Bailey taking the other rides. This, also, means Bailey has 4 rides as Nielsen would have probably replaced him in one.

Has Ipswich team been approved by BSPA yet? Their 1-7 on BSPA site still has Damon Hume in it, despite the teams all being updated yesterday.

 

You'd have thought they would have updated that part as of their site as they have 2 articles about Nathan joining Ipswich and he's keen to impress on their home screen.

 

If his signing hasn't been ratified then it should have been and I'm sure there will be all sorts of riding under protest tonight.

Hopefully you're feeling better soon, Scotsman.

 

All the best

Rob
