SharpenRake Posted June 22, 2017 Report Share Posted June 22, 2017 Well a home match at last and a potential banana skin. We haven't ridden at home for weeks so will bound to be a bit rusty. And we are without young Dan on U-21 duty, the trouble with signing brilliant young riders So we have Ryan Douglas as a guest, good luck Ryan. Otherwise our team is as normal. The witches line up as follows (from official facebook page) 1 Danny King © 8.882 Kyle Newman 6.313 Cameron Heeps 6.644 Justin Sedgmen 7.605 Rory Schlein 8.066 Connor Mountain 2.677 Nathan Greaves 2.26TM - Ritchie Hawkins. the witches have a strong 1-5, a bit like us so it could come down to the reserves. Think Tigers will get a win but the witches will get a point 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think Tigers will get a win but the witches will get a point Could we not have used r/r for Dan ? Obviously not as we had to interrupt wobblers playtime to get a replacement . Hope Tom Perry is on top form as he's going to be busy . Ipswich currently battering Workington , so this is going to be a huge test for us , especially an important rider short . Just noticed I've had a blond moment , I got my Douglas' mixed up , I misread and thought it was that wobbler from Berwick that turns up for them at number 8 now and again . Ryan is a decent guest Edited June 22, 2017 by Paulco Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should be a cracking meeting though , should the weathergods allow it to go ahead . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spanner47 Posted June 22, 2017 Report Share Posted June 22, 2017 If I was a betting man I'd say this was a dress rehearsal for the play off final, but the realist in me knows there's a long way to go. Just hope we can keep it close and keep the confidence high. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dontforgetthefueltapsbruv Posted June 23, 2017 Report Share Posted June 23, 2017 Stroll in the park....nah theres no way the Witches will hit 60 😛 Hope we give it a good go. Agree with Blu that Glasgow are unlikely to get beat at home all season. A point would be a great job done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IronScorpion Posted June 23, 2017 Report Share Posted June 23, 2017 What u21 meeting is it Looking at fixtures on BSPA site, the only one I can find is GB Lions U21 4TT at Mildenhall Sunday at 3pm! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aaron Summers 6.Tom Perry7. Jack Smith My prediction is 55-35 with Worrall on a max and lunna on a paid max Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SharpenRake Posted June 23, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 23, 2017 What u21 meeting is it From tigers official facebook Dan Bewley has been called up to represent Team GB in the European Under 21 Championship. Think we have a cracking team 1. Richard Lawson 2. Ryan Douglas (Potential 5-1 Pairing) 3. Richie Worrall 4. Nike Lunna 5. Aaron Summers 6.Tom Perry 7. Jack Smith My prediction is 55-35 with Worrall on a max and lunna on a paid max Well that's us doomed 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MD Posted June 23, 2017 Report Share Posted June 23, 2017 Ryan Douglas should be a reasonable replacement than r/r for Bewley. He's a rider i would haven taken a punt on, gone stale at Scunthorpe and would benefit from a change of track. On a 5.54 average he's a second string but just over a month ago he was having to ride at No1 for Scunthorpe on a low average. Be interesting to see how he goes at No2.

On his day he's a cracking little rider . He won the individual tournament at the two days fours meeting at Peterborough last year . I thought he would kick on this season , but for whatever reason it hasn't worked out that way , so far Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Blue Posted June 23, 2017 Report Share Posted June 23, 2017 No need to worry about anything, away from Foxhall we are mostly 'Pony and Trap'! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulco Posted June 23, 2017 Report Share Posted June 23, 2017 No need to worry about anything, away from Foxhall we are mostly 'Pony and Trap'! Hard to know what to expect from Ipswich . They clearly are a very good side and capable of winning anywhere , but away from home they have underperformed so far . King is good anyway , generally , and although Schlein hasn't ridden at Ashfield since his " Poo Boy " days as a Monarch , he remains a very capable heat leader at this level . Of the rest , Sedgmen looks good when he gates , less so when he doesn't . Newman and Heeps haven't really set the heather on fire , but you just never know with them . The reserves I expect to struggle . So it's one of those meetings that could finish 46-44 just as easy as it could finish 55-35 . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DiamondGlory Posted June 23, 2017 Report Share Posted June 23, 2017 If weather is fine, this could be a quality meeting, and will possibly be seen again in the playoffs 55-35 to the tigers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
