Crump99 Posted August 25, 2017 Report Share Posted August 25, 2017 (edited) I personally thing the track gets a bad rep the for racing it produces, ht 13&15 this year have regularly been excellent and have highlighted how good the racing can be, while also highlighting the gulf in class between the top and bottom riders in this league now. ht 13&15 generally have four good riders in them all of which could win it hence the racing is good! How many heats can you actually say that looking up and down a championship programme these days!? Week in week out the witches can only race what's in front of them and when the likes of ostergaard for example turn up and ride like he did tonight it isnt gonna be close racing and sadly there's just too much of that these days! Hope Cameron is ok, went in pretty damn hard! Would be a shame for him having been in such good form! Although he did seem to lose his head both races where he fell while trying a bit too hard unecesarily...a trait that this year seemed to be behind him...a big part of his large improvement imo Spot on The race to the bottom gets the racing (or lack of it) that it deserves.

spanner47 Posted August 25, 2017 Report Share Posted August 25, 2017 i agree the stadiums massive but crowd looked sparse to me Obviously the crowd levels at Foxhall have been acceptable for a few years, as I'm sure John or Chris wouldn't have funded it out of their back pockets like successive Peterboro promoters have had to. For some reason Peterboro has been beset with problems in the past few years, I suppose a lot of this is down to not having a regular raceday/night. Let's just hope Ged carries on funding it, or another promoter can be found to keep it alive, I'm not one of these that doesn't want tracks to close, but I want to see the good ones stay open. When posters mention about a track closing down on here they get jumped on, but they all hate doubling up, do the maths. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

foxxy Posted August 25, 2017 Report Share Posted August 25, 2017 How can Peterboro fans claim their woeful performance was down to Ipswich's home track advantage when the highest scorer on the night was Workington's No 2. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gavan Posted August 25, 2017 Report Share Posted August 25, 2017 How can Peterboro fans claim their woeful performance was down to Ipswich's home track advantage when the highest scorer on the night was Workington's No 2. The only person claiming 'home track advantage' is the schoolboy troll. The fact is Peterborough has the biggest home track advantage in the league so he trolled for the response. As you said Campton was the highest scorer anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crump99 Posted August 25, 2017 Report Share Posted August 25, 2017 What's the betting Simon Lambert and Ulrich Østergaard both in the team next year? FFS. By the sounds of it that's the least of our worries. I'd me more concerned about if there is a next year. If there is then those issues may sort themselves out anyway.

Baldyman Posted August 25, 2017 Report Share Posted August 25, 2017 I'm sure you will be running next year, let's hope so, brilliant track. Torun money should last 5 years apparently😉 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have had 3 or more good attempts so we could be in the 9 lives phase since we've had the lucky phase.

AntiqueSteve Posted August 25, 2017 Report Share Posted August 25, 2017 Heeps has all the speed but no brain. The meetings all over, a dead meeting really and twice now over riding and potentially injuring himself, needs x rays. At least he was having a go and trying to pass with a sling shot off the second bend...better than sitting in a procession ? Ok it didn't work out but at least he was trying... i agree the stadiums massive but crowd looked sparse to me Recon if you put all of the crowd into one side like Peterboro...would have pretty much filled it As for atmosphere it depends where you sit, its pretty good where we are By the way lovin the Ipswich mascot ...can we have him every week - Maybe he could try getting the crowd goin at the right moments ?

CookieIpswich Posted August 25, 2017 Report Share Posted August 25, 2017 Or pay to have their own mascot every week with a big witches flag in speedway branding. WONKY the Witch or how about a giant bug and call it Billy Witch suitable... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Super Blue Posted August 26, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 26, 2017 I thought it was only a murder of crows Collective for canaries is ' a shower of sh!te ' I almost put '6 fingered yellow and green bird' but they have claws so some pedant would have no doubt corrected me. And any mascot of the team from the 'N' word would have got alot more grief than Holder got on Thursday. I say the 'N' word because to me that's swearing which is not allowed on a public forum.
