2ndbend 50 Posted May 3, 2018 Well how long are we going to have to suffer this under performing team? One win at home out of four is just not good enough and yet again the Witches management seem to have been confused by the average changes which means that we will only be able to bring in lower averages riders than the starting averages. We had 7.49 to play with when Nico got hurt and now we only have 6.30..... you could write it!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Icicle 896 Posted May 3, 2018 This idiot idea of suddenly changing the averages was not the fault of Ippo management. Who' allowed such stupidity mid-season( well maybe not mid...)? However, the injury to Danny brings the poor start to a head..... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
2ndbend 50 Posted May 3, 2018 So how come other teams have replaced their injured riders just before the new averages and we didn’t...... did they know something we didn’t......! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bash 496 Posted May 3, 2018 So if Danny has broken his arm who do we get to replace him. The only rider I can think of is Edward Kennett but I don't know when he is due back from his dislocated knee. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stainlesssteelride 106 Posted May 4, 2018 I would make more than one change and somehow get Greaves back in the team, his out and out total effort could rub off on everyone else. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hawk127 1,359 Posted May 4, 2018 Is the lack of track time and regular weekly meetings a factor for the hit and miss form of some riders/teams? Injuries are unfortunate and we wish Danny a speedy recovery but you cannot help think that some riders are suffering greatly from match race fitness and home track racing so the view could be that this seasons less is more is taking its toll on some. Still have the league to go for but it will be a very short season if they are not able to turn it around both home and away. At the moment, winning away looks a long shot. Let’s hope that the gaps are plugged/changes made. Perhaps Freddie Lindgren or Greg Hancock might like some time out in Ipswich Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
