    I take it you mean me? I never "disappeared" anywhere! And I didn't lose the bet for crying out loud, you're STILL wrong!!!

    Tungate for Somerset I'm hearing. Possibly on a full transfer too.

    That isn't what you were basically saying at all. You said and I quote, "Covatti started at reserve last year and will undoubtably find it tougher riding in the likely no 5 position." He rode a fully four months of the season riding at number 5 and didn't find it "tougher" at all, he was like shi t off a shovel.

    And today Simmons has followed James Sarjeant, Covatti, Darryl Ritchings, Paco Castagna and Mike Bacon. Just name him and be done with it. Team looks good to me I'm excited to see some new faces. That top four should score plenty between them!

    Think Mike already knows judging by his last two follows on twitter! Not too sure on that line up to be honest. Looks a pretty long tail to me and I'm not sure about Nielsen in the 1-5 either. You'd expect good points from King, Kerr, Covatti and Risager most meetings though so looks competitive but I don't think it'll be one of the pre-season favourites.

    That's gone over my head. Who is Eddie?

    Other than King and Covatti who look certainties, who is the one rider you have more than a hunch will line up for the Witches next season? I'll go Risager.

    He's not likely to collect his Mr Rocket award and then make a speech saying "thanks for this by the way I'm off" is he Shads I don't believe we'll sign him as it goes because King is pretty much nailed on and I just can't see Louis going that top heavy. You'd think Kennett would be the first Rocket signed up wouldn't you? Most like to get their number one's done first so I'm sure this rumour will be put to bed pretty quickly.

    Roland seems convinced and to be fair he's not one known for a wind up. We'll soon find out.

    That's twice you've mentioned Kennett in a few days, and you seem pretty confident in your last post! Have you heard something from a reliable source Roland? I know plenty think top heavy would be the way to go and I agree also. The top heavy teams nearly always seem to ride off with the trophy, but having two nine and a half pointers is a bit overkill isn't it? Would be interesting though at least!

    It does make it all the more interesting and we'll all have a rough idea of how ready the lad is for PL racing. Comes very highly rated, and apparently has a crowd pleasing racers style so I'm looking forward to seeing him. Always nice to see Scotty on the Heath too so all in all looking forward to it.

    King is a cert to return as long as he wants another year in the PL. Would be very surprised to see Tungate return also I think Louis will have lost patience with him this year we'll see.
  13. Me neither. He's come up with so much obvious bullsh it that I don't believe a single word he posts.
  14. "Ipswich Team Manager, Phil Hilton, was extremely pleased with his team's performance: "That's more like it - a very positive attitude in the pits tonight with everyone contributing on the track as well." "Co-promoter, John Louis, added "What an enjoyable meeting after what has happened in recent weeks. The atmosphere in the pits was so positive tonight - now to keep it going and move up that table!" http://www.ipswichwitches.co/index.php/news-centre/976-witches-cast-a-spell-over-devils

    Yep that's what Chris Louis has been saying in the Star, next week will be the first time this season we'll have raced with our own full 1-7. He also says that no team has raced the Witches at their best this season and we need to improve pronto as the team is good enough to be top 3. I agree with him it is, and I feel some sympathy for Louis because he keeps putting together very good looking teams every single season, and for whatever reason every single season the team doesn't live up to its potential. Must be very frustrating.

    I might pop along next Thursday now. Morris making his debut and Heeps back in the team have made it a little more interesting.

    It's pretty easy for me, Hawkins was wrong. We all know his season got off to the worst start possible and from then on it's just not happened for him. All he had to say was that he was struggling and no longer enjoying it so he needs a break. That's all he needed to say then none of this debating would be necessary. He may well have had issues with Hilton, but that should have been kept in house and he was out of order to publically criticise the fella and tell all and sundry that we won't be successful purely because of his management style. Unnecessary. That's my last word on the subject so I'll bow out of this one now! Welcome to Ashley Morris good luck lad.

    I think you're clearly biased towards Hawkins here, that's a bit obvious! Hawkins is out of order here and should have kept his trap shut in the first pace. He's either just being really spiteful, or very clever with that interview. Hilton is now under a lot of pressure because the next time we struggle to beat an inferior looking team at home (or lose), then the finger will be pointed at the team manager. Hawkins has basically just told every single Witches supporter that we'll win nothing this season, and it's all because of that Phil Hilton fella. Unbelievably unfair and out of order IMO. As someone else pointed out, radio Suffolk clearly confronted Hilton with Hawkins' interview and asked him to respond. What was he supposed to do? Say yes it's all my fault and Ritchie is spot on? He was asked to respond and he did that, and I personally thought he done it very well in an eloquent manner.

    I normally stick up for Tungate as I think he gets a bit of an unfair ride by some, but he's poor this season up until now. The perverse way this sport works though will probably mean he'll look more attractive for next season because of it.

    Only just over though aren't we? think it was 42.9ish last time I looked. The way one or two others averages are also tumbling it might be worth making more than one change and re-declaring!
  23. CardinalSin

    Ipswich 2015

    Can't pretend I'm disappointed as he's been awful. Problem is it doesn't leave us with an awful lot to replace him unless we go down the route of making more than one change.

    Could Heeps be out a little longer than expected and Paco is being brought in as short term cover?
