Super Blue 616 Posted October 23, 2017 So is Holders mystery bout of Oz-itus going to be cleared up by Thursday after all his injections then? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LagutaRacingFan 1,936 Posted October 23, 2017 So is Holders mystery bout of Oz-itus going to be cleared up by Thursday after all his injections then? If Jack is there then he will strike fear into Ipswich. Him and Harris are capable of clearing the card. The question is whether Lambert will be fit, he had a virus and rode last night.

CookieIpswich 249 Posted October 23, 2017 Holder is awful at Foxhall If Lambert was fully fit he would still ride Foxhall as tho he was injured Harris is not exceptional there, Starkey from memory is ok, ostegaard more miss than hit Think BWD flies around Foxhall tho so you've got a.... No chance with him Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Panther1997 228 Posted October 23, 2017 Holder is awful at Foxhall Not that I care about him anymore, but he did get 12 from 5 rides the last time he rode for us at your place. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Arch Stanton 2,255 Posted October 23, 2017 (edited) Holder was pretty good on his last Foxhall visit if I remember rightly? Bit optimistic for Rory to be fit for Thursday with a badly sprained ankle? Maybe if its well strapped he maybe ok well have to see. If hes out well need a good guest to cover his Foxhall scoring power. Or would it be a guest for Sedgman and R/R for Schlein? Edit: I have no idea why my apostrophes are not working! My iPhone emojis dont display either yet I can see them from others..

jenga 2,998 Posted October 23, 2017 Me and Olivia are no longer together, I do not want to talk about it. Sat at work shaking my head in disbelief. I may need to speak to my manager and ask for the day off. If Jack is there then he will strike fear into Ipswich. Him and Harris are capable of clearing the card. The question is whether Lambert will be fit, he had a virus and rode last night. i have to question your line of thought here , whats more importantfrom a young persons point of view ? is it the fact that you n ollie have fallen out? or the fact that peterborough have had a poor home result in the first leg ? i for one would think that your private life and any relationships you have are more important than peterborough . so if pb close down , you can always go to ged and ask him for a fence panel or try the plenty more fishsite . you have a choice , hope you make the correct one . anyhow , you should be working now and not let speedway get in your way with your job . 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
2ndbendbeerhut 1,781 Posted October 23, 2017 The question is whether Lambert will be fit, he had a virus and rode last night. It's a question that was raised well before yesterdays meeting.. . Looks like the Holder/BWD virus is sweeping the Panthers team... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CookieIpswich 249 Posted October 23, 2017 Stand corrected on holder last time out, don't think I went based on the panthers previous visit to that one Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
2ndbendbeerhut 1,781 Posted October 23, 2017 Stand corrected on holder last time out, don't think I went based on the panthers previous visit to that one Beat King and our reserves once. Also Heeps when Cam fell whilst trying to overtake him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Crump99 4,476 Posted October 23, 2017 I know Panthers fans are annoyed (including myself) about the result in the end but this was a superb meeting to end the season and had everything. Good crowd, great racing and thrills n spills. I'm not annoyed. We've been riding our luck and got found out at a vital time, as we did in the league. It had some of those elements you describe but I think that superb is pushing it a bit. Liked by Humpty and Dumpty of course but it was more fun for them.

proud panther 1,505 Posted October 23, 2017 (edited) Well done Witches, brilliant response to losing Rory, especially the 2 young lads at reserve. The travelling support made a brilliant atmosphere, & I hope & pray that we are back next season. Edited October 23, 2017 by proud panther 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
arnieg 3,651 Posted October 23, 2017 I've seen a lot of brilliant meetings at Alwalton, but this wasn't one of them. No matter how good the last few heats - and as a neutral I enjoyed them - the first two hours (bar Starke's win over Heeps) were uninspiring. We had a late start, a long delay while Rory was treated, and a one sided match against visitors missing a key rider. And then it finally got going. The last third of the match was dramatic (and undoubtedly uplifting for visiting fans) but we had to wait a long time in the chill wind before the denouement. Looking forward to the second leg, who knows what further surprises this tie may throw up. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iainb 5,024 Posted October 23, 2017 (edited) Went to this one as a neutral expecting to see a cup final cracker... instead start was delayed, not because of the crowd but due to lack of ambulance, then both teams running R/R and Ippo losing Schlein meant that more or less every race was 2 rides on the trot, meeting held up for around 20 mins because there was only 1 ambulance in attendance, ref seemed to not know where the 2 minute button was and when there wasn't 2 on the trot and the meeting could have been pushed along a bit the tractor came out for track grading!!! Well done Ippo on not collapsing and keeping it close but from a neutral point of view it was hard to keep any interest going in what was a very tedious meeting. My first visit to the EoES since the shambles that was the Newcastle match... at least Schlein wasn't able to throw his toys out the pram this time because he couldn't ride the track. Nigh on 3 hours for 15mins of action is a total joke Edited October 23, 2017 by iainb 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
