Witches V Bears Pl Wed 21-5-14

[Super Blue 616]

How is this going to pan out then?

 

Different night, weather forecast looking distinctly iffy, will the Witches have a full team available, are Gino and Cam fit enough to ride and be competitive if they do?

 

Lots of ifs and maybes but if it does all go ahead and according to plan I believe a home win is on the cards.

Should be a comfortable win, but they do have a couple of riders that go well at Ipswich, along with a couple like summers that doesn't.

Ipswich Star states that Heeps and Manzares are both hoping to ride, but Manzares has a fitness test tomorrow to see if he can. Rained a bit this afternoon, could do with some more to sort the track out. No Heeps and Risager can take r/r. No Manzares and its Heeps plus reserves. If both miss out its r/r and a guest.

 

Last years Redcar scores:

1 Matej Kus 0 3 3 1 r 7

2 Hugh Skidmore 1 0 0 0 1

3 Ulrich Ostergaard 1* 2 1 0 2 6

4 Michael Dyer 2 0! 0 1* 3

5 Aaron Summers 1 1 0! r 2

6 Carl Wilkinson 3 0 3 2 2 2 12

7 Steven Worrall 0 f 0

Remember that the Witches dominated, with only Wilkinson riding really well. Lawson could score more than Kus but generally struggles at Foxhall. Ostergaard and Dyer been replaced by Konopka and Graversen. Should be a comfortable win for the Witches but who would have thought that Redcar would have won on Sunday at Newcastle?

Need a big night from Rohan to take the pressure off the walking wounded and to kickstart his season.

 

Hoping for a win by 12+

[Emma T 11]

Should be straight forward win for the Witches Wednesday evening and I think I'm right in saying we have always done well at their place to so hopeful of 4 or 5 league points over the two nights.

[2ndbendbeerhut 1,781]

As Bruv says, depends on Tungate. Then again lots of questions really, fitness of Heeps and Manzares being major ones.

Rain might be the winner on Wednesday.

[2ndbendbeerhut 1,781]

Rain might be the winner on Wednesday.

 

That certainly looks the case!

[sidewinder 189]

Rain might be the winner on Wednesday.

Even more likely, on Thursday at Redcar. Forecast is not very good.

[Super Blue 616]

If the weather does intervene at least it would give Gino and Cam time to recuperate a bit from their injuries .

[Roland 63]

Met Office radar shows rain from 7 onwards tonight. M'Boro tomorrow not looking much better

[dontforgetthefueltapsbruv 10,692]

Unfortunately looks bleak for tonight and tomorrow. Never good to have to look at rearrangements but even worse given the problem of race night clash.

[CardinalSin 346]

Can't they switch these two fixtures around!? Weather in Ipswich looks woeful for tonight, but fine all day and evening tomorrow.

 

Redcar looks fine all day and night tonight, but a total write off tomorrow!

 

Both sets of riders are obviously available tonight and tomorrow, so flip the home and away meetings and get two meetings on.

 

Leave them as they are and little chance of either..

Come on, that's far too logical to ever happen! Edited May 21, 2014 by Super Blue

[Baldyman 6,243]

Agree, that makes far too much sense
