Given that one had his collarbone screwed together just a few weeks ago and the other is coming back from well documented major injuries it comes as no surprise. Any opinion to the contrary if frankly baffling. Luckily titles are not won in April and I’m sure later in the season we could expect a modest 12 points from these two to make things a little tighter come heat 15. Is the top and bottom of it. Over a season I fully expect Ipswich to be propping the table up and BV comfortably in the play offs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's odd that people formulate such an opinion, not sure how you have arrived at it but each to their own. Titles and play off qualification are not earned in April, even less so in a first away meeting. Well done to Ipswich, a much better team on the night. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Why would you need a running commentary on what you can actually see? Peter York used to do it and I found it irritating and pointless. Hard to hear over the bikes anyway Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I wouldn’t want any other laps commented on tho. The only benefit would be to give any newbies an idea what’s happening and whose who during the race.
