I agree, but is it nervousness as the crowds are lower than last year with a weaker side. I think the expectation of fans is possibly expecting the worst and hoping for the best. 7 wins out of 9 isn't to be sniffed at but with only Belle Vue and Sheffield away to boot have we really been tested yet? I think we are solid but quite honestly I don't know the answer.

Spoiler, Chris Harris didn’t make him crash 😂

Well cooper did tonight to be fair to him after his win! And Brennan came round but only to practice his starts 😂 pretty sure king came round too. Not the same as Doyle going sideways on bend two stock cars concrete track and then the back straight on his rear wheel though!

2 out of paco cook and Harris Need replacing and need to get kvech riding like a number 5

A shame you couldn't get Jason Doyle... Oh! Hang on...

Do we all agree Jenkins should stay for Fredriksen once Battye is fit, he’s shown more in one meeting than Fredriksen has this ‘season’ so far

Have to say, how disappointing. 8 points up, lose by 6!!! Scorecard says it all. No rider in double figures. Top score of 9!!!! The only rider we can seem to rely on is Kye Thompson, a reserve!!!!! We have NO heat leader who will guarantee 12+ points at home. Out thought & out fought by Sheffield. Just my take on it 😞

I do wish the Ipswich riders would do a lap of honour on the stock car track if they win a heat and most definitely when we get a 5-1. It costs nothing and the crowd appreciates it. lynn looked poor and I cannot see them making the playoffs

Good luck to the lad.... Paid his dues... No point having a penal system if you cannot change...

I heard that @ArthurRudge has bought his ticket already!

Motm Chris Adams- not giving Thomson additional rides helped secure us that win. Well impressed with the set up at Northampton though, fantastic facilties and was well organised. Track needs work, up against it with how warm and dry it was but I think had their been more grading we could've potentially seen more racing- however if they can sort that out and put together a more competitive team they could be ob to a real winner.

You don't really need great tactical nous, to know that you should give an unbeaten reserve extra rides. Ok Kye lost a 5-1 in heat 14, but he was unbeaten up till then, but only given his 4 rides!

Like the NSS... There is a tipping point for the track..... On the slick side? (Just), with a dirt line outside, tremendous.. Too grippy, and all ride the berm and follow each other....

Great final heat. Thanks to all the riders, an enjoyable competitive meeting.

More fallers than overtakes tonight going by the updates😁.Another poor result for Lynn.

Good... but the lowest yet. I think Adams is too pally with the riders, doesn't seem to have a ruthless streak like his old man

.

Not got the Senior Adams tactical nous. Shame as was heading for another Northampton win which is what they need to keep the crowd coming back, how were the numbers tonight?

A great comeback from the Tigers, they looked out of it after 11 after a couple of indifferent rides from Jack Holder but after an unlikely 5-1 in 14 they were pretty much home and hosed with a couple of Holders in 15 👏

That's because he's a spanner man and not a team manager.

Moved to this weekend, was on the 27th but the FIM have GP 2 qualification meetings, 4 I think all over Europe, comets have Tate and Max riding, think Glasgow have Hausl and maybe another

Awful management by Adams not putting Thomson in heat 12. Cost his team the meeting potentially.

Yeah, quite an intriguing fixture this. I'm sure the GT Tyres arena track will suit the likes of Mario Hausl and KJP, while Bomber, Howarth and Flint need no introduction. Freddie Hodder will also be full of confidence after his top performance in the win at Oxford Wednesday evening. Going to be another close encounter I fancy. Hopefully Vinnie can be solid in the difficult No 2 position. Jordy Loftus in as a guest for Niklas has shown decent form for the Monarchs at Northside so a repeat will be most welcome and I'm looking forward to the battles between the reserves. A repeat of the form shown by Comets debutant Drew Kemp for the Berwick Bandits last season will hopefully help get us over the line . UTC !!!

Needs to be absolutely fully fit and be able to make double figures from the off, otherwise it could be be a long season if we have to take Klindt out of the team for a less than fit Wright

Yes moved from the 27th.
