On another night Zach would have got heat 15.

Tie over. Well done Ipswich. Did more than a job on us tonight. We just didn’t show up, only Zach Dan and brandy did track was a shocker today. Poorest meeting I’ve seen here this season that. But the amount of rain that fell probably played a part. oh well, time for hibernation. See y’all in march

He always is.... A shame the racing was poor tonight, as the four World Class riders never really had the chance to show their capability... Heats 13 and 15 being the two stand out races whereby fourth wasn't almost a straight behind first..

Doyle was terrific and a pleasure to watch.

They’ve been messing around with the track the last six weeks or so, purposely preparing it differently each time to experiment according to the manager, to find a sweet spot for all the riders going in to these play offs. Of course when it rains, all that goes out of the window. As for the tie, if we don’t make it through from here we deserve to win absolutely nothing. That’s the simple truth of it.

Oh Well.... Theres always next year..... Whatever next year will look like!!! To be honest, given how poor the Aces are (their bottom three must be close to being riders 26th, 27th and 28th of the 28 riders left in the play offs), I am amazed Ipswich didn't beat them comfortably, let alone actually lose to them, and I sure many Ipswich fans must have some concern about coming up against either of the other teams who have much greater strength in depth... Sheffield and Leicester must have watched and gained confidence.

Yes and there current averages will help next season team building

Emil couldn’t get off the start and I don’t know why but the track was poor tonight and if you were behind against the top guys you ain’t catching them

Weather forecast suggests some light rain on Thursday. Could that eliminate Ipswich's home track advantage?

Well slight advantage to the Witches I reckon but would suggest no one gets cocky as we all remember 2023!! Not a great night for Emil he was slow away and lacked speed - Jason had a couple of those rides that remind you what a top rider he is! One of two really good races tonight - thought Dan T did well considering he was in the main body of the team and had to face Zach twice DanB and Brady in his 4 rides!! pleased for Jason Edwards too a decent performance to outshine his opposite number! enjoyed it anyway and looking forward to Thursday!

Doyle and Emil average gone down and everyone else has gone up

I think the Brady Kurtz earlier in the season may have done more that’s all … not saying he didn’t ride well

Dont think many Ipswich riders have underperformed over the season.

I was there, he couldn't , mot without actually hitting him.

Nope Dan and Brady both rode well, Jason Doyle is still a top class rider.

I think he could have done more … just my opinion

Definitely, Doyley was on fire tonight. It wasnt Brady who underperformed tonight.

I know play offs can be different but we have won by 14 and 22 in the league when both times Belle Vue used a tac sub which resulted in a 5-1 to them and no tac subs this time As an Ipswich fan if we lose this from here we deserve all the stick we will rightly receive

That's nonsense Brady tried everything to pass..

Quite surprised you answered!!

and as per my prediction a small home win 48-42. Never thought Ippo would manage another draw with Belle Vue at full strength, but they are far too reliant on their top three to thrash any solid team like Ippo. Jason Doyle showed he is a wily experienced rider and lowered whizz kid Brad Kruz colours twice this evening.

Its amazing bar Thompson this year all the ippo riders have been disappointing but it still might bee good enough to win the league

No?

Everyone associated with Ipswich would've snapped your hand off for a single digit defeat before Heat 1. BV were toast very early on tonight, Danny King gave them some false hope in Heat 8 but a quick one two punch from Brennan and Doyley in the heats that followed killed any momentum the Aces were hoping to build. Ipswich will sail into the final on Thursday, Brady will mentally check out after a few races on Thursday after BV fall behind on aggregate.

If BV get of to a decent start they can rattle Ipswich and hold them,if they don’t Ipswich will walk over them, that’s how psychology works in sport
