ruffdiamond 6,115 Posted June 2, 2017 Connor Coles can gate yeah and if it was a race to the 1st bend, he'd score plenty. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dontforgetthefueltapsbruv 10,706 Posted June 2, 2017 A point worth noting re the meeting is that it could easily not gone ahead with Barabara Horley being taken ill beforehand (best wishes to her btw) Take a bow Mark Styles for stepping in at the last minute. It mustve been a daunting prospect particularly at such short notice. 👍👏 Dont think there were any glaring errors. Perhaps when Lambert was on his tac ride and Nathan nearly lost it having rounded him off turn 2 it couldve been seen as dangerous/out of control but 50/50 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheScotsman 2,483 Posted June 2, 2017 Indeed - the boy done good as they say in the footie. I assume for the one dodgy start when the tapes went up but no-one moved that perhaps he hadn't switched off the green light? But at least the riders behaved themselves at the start (apart from King!! (perhaps they had been asked to play nicely? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Super Blue 616 Posted June 2, 2017 (edited) Must admit that last night's meeting was a shocker, delayed start, excessive falls and reruns and pretty poor racing. Not really what we pay hard earned money to go and watch! God knows what they need to do with the track to make more passing possible, I don't know but that's not my job. Hopefully things will improve and we see a decent meeting next week. Edited June 2, 2017 by Super Blue 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Super Blue 616 Posted June 2, 2017 Can't be much worse can it? Well it is Edinburgh coming to town so at least should be another 3 league points in the bag. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Baldyman 6,243 Posted June 2, 2017 Must admit that last night's meeting was a shocker, delayed start, excessive falls and reruns and pretty poor racing.

Hopefully things will improve and we see a decent meeting next week. Just been looking on the witches Facebook page and not one negative comment on any of it about last night. Comments like great performance and they really enjoyed that meeting, but most on here saying it was a shocker. Just proves people see their speedway differently.

Lord Skid 425 Posted June 2, 2017 They can prepare a great Racing surface, only trouble is, half the Riders wouldn't be able to ride it, some can't manage to stay on when it's slick. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CookieIpswich 249 Posted June 2, 2017 Shame they can't use the stock car track to make the track bigger/wider rather than taking everything inwards, would never happen but surely possible in some form? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
2ndbendbeerhut 1,781 Posted June 2, 2017 Speedway is an inconvenience to most of the cars brigade..... if only our sponsor has some land to start from stratch .... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CookieIpswich 249 Posted June 2, 2017 Perhaps if ipswich were to develope teams to compete in national basketball, netball and ice hockey leagues then there could be a development in place where one facility caters for all but again won't happen so got to make do with what is there Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dandelion 775 Posted June 2, 2017 Peterborough are a different team every time they get thrashed. You mean, they're a different team every week Reading on Newcastle website George English say to many falls and last places cost them anything from the meeting,4 falls and reserves didnt beat an opponent again out of 8 rides. That didn't cost us, just our crap reserves in general did, even if they stopped on their bike, they wouldn't have scored, I expected Connor to do a little better, considering how much he rode Ipswich last year... Connor Coles can gate But cannot stop on... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
