Fair play to Sheffield, good side. As feared, the loss of Starke cost us in the end. Stinkers from King and Batch didn’t help either.

Ipswich fans might blame Batch however it's Danny King who keeps letting the side down so far this season.

Why no Riss in heat 15? 
mistake I feel and as suspected Paul Starke being out has cost us points

Hume scored pretty much what Starke would of got to be fair, problem lies when King, Riss and Batch only score 5 each

Don't forget Barker. Hume scored way more than Rowe. Would have been closer with Starke as King and Barker would only have had three rides.

To be fair, Doyle aside there wasn’t really many options. Riss possibly. Think Batch gating very well in 13 and looking set for a 5-1 with Doyle before they stuffed up their team riding may have had an influence on his decision. King didn’t gate all night and looked pretty slow.

Entertaining match due to it being close but the racing was dire, Sheffield deserved their win and I would have loved to have seen Hawkins face after heat 15.

He has undoubtedly got the best smacked arse face look when he loses.

Well done Sheffield - nice to see 4 Swindon riders from the title winning 2019 team - 2 on each team.
I think Stevie Worrall got better in commentary as the meeting progressed.

Hume was riding anyway. It was Nicol who came in for Starke.

Batchelor looks like he riding an engine with an unfamiliar set up for him, he was riding like a novice who’s bike was taking him for a ride and he had no confidence in it ,so given that you have to ask why he was used in heat 15
