Interesting set of averages there! Starke is a doubt with his wrist injury, so with these bizarre looking new averages, Batch, Riss, Barker and Hume can take a R/R which in all likelihood strengthens us.

You have for this one haven't you.

Starke is considered “doubtful” at the moment. 
 

“It was a really busy night for me, a lot of it taken up by trying to manage Paul’s injury and trying to spread his races out so that it didn’t put too much strain on him. Whilst he put in an exceptional shift, I know he was in immense pain so we had to manage that the best we could. It was one ride too many in the end which resulted in him getting passed and then crashing but he did a superb job for the team tonight.“ 

This was from Hawkins after the meeting last week. He’s really struggling with his wrist and crashing again didn’t help. He needs to rest up really because it won’t do either him or the team any good to try and ride through it. We’re already carrying Barker, can’t be carrying two riders.

If Starke rides then KL win.

If it's R/R for Starke then Ipswich win due to R/R making them much more stronger with Batch & Riss being allowed to take a ride.

I think we win either way personally. Although Lynn for a point if Starke rides which I hope he doesn’t to be honest.

Not being nasty but I think everyone associated with Ipswich hope Starke doesn't ride.

No disrespect to Starkey because he's a solid rider when fit but R/R with Batchelor & Riss being allowed to take a ride is a huge difference imo.

Surely it's all about entertainment and getting a crowd in,, so I read a few times on other threads,,, so instead of rr for Starke,, let's use BZ for the evening,, cos its all about bums on seats.  Or maybe we could go local and see if Ed Sheeran fancies a spin

The new Green Sheets should now be based on the last 18 matches, so a few more older scores will have dropped of the calculations. I don't follow them closely enough to know the impact.

Next month it will be down to 16. As mentioned previously, it's the last X matches, irrespective of home or away, i.e. not half of each.  By October, it will be the last 10 matches - at some point I'll work out the likely number of home/away for each team.

Should be a healthy crowd tomorrow I’d expect. Bank holiday so most people not working, weather forecast looks great for tomorrow with wall to wall sunshine, and the old enemy back in town. Both teams in decent form and going well so expect a fair few from Lynn will come down as well. 
 

Looking forward to it.

Going to make my first visit to the foxhole for many a year today.My last visit was to watch a friend ride when he had a spell with Workington before returning to the best club in the land:) Sun is out,it's warm the only thing to top it off today would be a Lynn win:rolleyes:
