JamesB Posted July 4, 2018 Report Share Posted July 4, 2018 Oh dear, it looks like Lewis Kerr has had a bad crash at Lynn and has gone to hospital. Hopefully nothing too serious and he is back quickly. It seems like even guesting for us now attracts the Witches injury curse. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OdsalBoy Posted July 4, 2018 Report Share Posted July 4, 2018 Just seen that the Witches have signed Jeppesen, could be a handful if he shows a liking for Owlerton. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlieboy Posted July 5, 2018 Report Share Posted July 5, 2018 Could be closer than some may think.Schlein and covatti are quality and jack will have a point to prove.I think it will depend on who replaces Kerr.Hoping for a home win and don't let Ipswich take a point.

It's all about how many heeps scores if we have a chance of a point, it's his type of track, but just don't know which heeps will turn up.

Think Cam needs to get his head in the right space and then it will all click again Lets hope it starts tonight... Both teams have had a similar frustrating start to the season and both now seem more settled at home so Sheffield should be in control Nicol has been a good signing for the Tigers - hopefully Jonas can be the same for us Expect nothing, hope for a point, any more would be a dream Edited July 5, 2018 by dontforgetthefueltapsbruv 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nico has been top drawer. Sometimes an injury lay off can work in your favour. At the start of the season, he was struggling as much as Cam and just couldn’t get going. An unfortunate injury gave him time to wipe the slate clean and come back firing. He’s done just that. I was surprised to see one or two question whether he was worth retaining this year on his average. I personally would have him first on the team sheet for two reasons. Firstly, he’s the type of rider you pay your money to go and watch, a racer. Secondly, he’s normally bar the odd blip, very consistent away from home. Not sure if it’s changed, but a season or two ago he had the best away average of the entire team. You have to win your home meetings of course, but picking up away points is crucial also and Nico contributes hugely to that. I’d much prefer to have someone like that in my team, than someone like Ludvig Lindgren a similar average, who is awesome at home but struggles for points on the road (with all due respect).

Baldyman Posted July 5, 2018 Report Share Posted July 5, 2018 The thing with nico is when he is on it he is fantastic to watch, like you say a rider worth paying to watch, but at the start of season and not on it, he offers nothing, cos he only does one thing. Like you though one of first names on team sheet. Also like you say, one of our if not our best away rider. Rory nico and Scott should come away with a huge points tally between them. As for the others I'm not so sure and one I can't judge as have never seen. So it really could be anything from a stuffing to a win tonight, but at least one point is vital......so come on Heeps, shove it up a keyboard warrior like me. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
