Stupid new rule producing artificial results for no reason other than they think it will be exciting. Of course, drawn matches have always been so dull that it's important to jizz them up with an artificial ending ... The super heat scores are not added to the totals so the away side still get a point in those circumstances I agree though not a change that was necessary. The existing set up was a fair outcome 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arch Stanton Posted March 24, 2022 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2022 A week to go! A week too late looking at the forecast for next week. Typically, a lovely spring week this week is set to turn much colder again for the first meeting so don’t put the bobble hats away just yet! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BBC weather currently showing 3 degrees at 8pm, 2 degrees by 10pm. Sleet and rain in the day, although looks dry by the evening. If it goes ahead we'll need 10 pairs of socks and six coats each to stay vaguely warm. Could be ice speedway at Foxhole. Hopefully stars will turn up with spikes in their tyres to help them get round.... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baldyman Posted March 28, 2022 Report Share Posted March 28, 2022 The 3 and 4 pairing battles will be key to who wins. Both Heeps and Kerr are better round Foxhall than their averages. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arch Stanton Posted March 28, 2022 Author Report Share Posted March 28, 2022 Probably see double figures from Worrall at reserve as well I’d have thought. So handy having a really strong reserve and Lynn have one. That alone should keep the score pretty close. Glad Lynn have signed Iversen too, should be a good battle between him and Doyle. All eyes on Batchelor, wonder which version we’re getting? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Batchelor always seems to go better with a strong no1 in the team, and historically has done very well with doyley. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2ndbend Posted March 30, 2022 Report Share Posted March 30, 2022 One day to go... I predict a big win for the Witches 51 -39 : Doyle 10, Riss 8 + 2, Heeps 7 + 1, Batchelor 9, King 9 + 1, Starke 3 + 2, Rowe 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arch Stanton Posted March 30, 2022 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2022 Witches by 6. Worrall at reserve for Lynn will keep it close IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bagpuss Posted March 30, 2022 Report Share Posted March 30, 2022 We are undecided whether to travel from the nicest part of East Anglia any weather updates anybody can give tomorrow would be greatly appreciated. Very keen to come but not to burn a couple of hundred miles worth of pricey petrol on a postponement or a ploughed field racetrack. Many thanks in advance!

Arch Stanton Posted March 30, 2022 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2022 Will keep you updated on the weather throughout the day Baggy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baldyman Posted March 30, 2022 Report Share Posted March 30, 2022 (edited) I can't believe the speedway starts tomorrow at Foxhall,, and I have no enthusiasm about it at all,, I'm normally pretty excited. Think I may just wait till Monday at the showground instead. Edited March 30, 2022 by Baldyman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
