bigcatdiary 3,156 Posted September 5, 2021 Peterborough host the Witches Monday looking to bank another three points, with all six Premiership teams in action they elect to use RR for the missing Ulrich Ostergaard (with team news again courtesy of Ipswich) and bring in Jack Thomas for the injured Jordan Palin. Bjarne Pedersen is listed as returning from his recent illness and Ipswich have again a full 1-7, it’s difficult to access whether it will be close or a comfortable home win but Ritchie Hawkins certainly thinks it’s the former. Weather forecast is very good. Teams PETERBOROUGH: 1. R/R for Ulrich Ostergaard 7.09 2. Bjarne Pedersen 6.41 3. Michael Palm Toft 6.83 4. Scott Nicholls 6.37 © 5. Chris Harris 6.37 6. Jack Thomas (G) (RS) 7. Hans Andersen 6.20. IPSWICH: 1. Danny King 7.46 © 2. Paul Starke 4.85 3. Jason Crump 5.54 4. Jake Allen 4.88 5. Craig Cook 7.23 6. Anders Rowe 4.84 7. Drew Kemp (RS). 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cambpanther 172 Posted September 5, 2021 Ipswich will do better here than most think, most of their team love the track. Be interesting to see how Crump gos back at the showground 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dontforgetthefueltapsbruv 10,683 Posted September 5, 2021 I think most of the Witches would favour the Showground over Foxhall so should mean a closer contest (if they want it) Could be Crump's swansong in British top flight Speedway - perhaps the most fitting place for it to end?? 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LagutaRacingFan 1,919 Posted September 5, 2021 Due to my age, I have never seen Crump ride in person before. Will be a privilege to watch one of speedway's greats. I expect the attendance for this will be very high. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

scoobydoo 2,253 Posted September 5, 2021 (edited) Jack Thomas had three rides yesterday at Leicester and at Glasgow today as a guest for the Tigers and scored zero in both matches so don't expect to much from him.

Fair play to Thomas for chasing rides and meetings all over the Country for not to many points. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Any rider who drives around the country to gain track time and experience deserves praise for putting himself on the line even for little return. I wish a few more experienced riders would make the effort. I just hope that he does not lose heart. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
