Arch Stanton 2,255 Posted May 30, 2022 (edited) Starke is at 2, Riss finally moves away from 2 and teams up with King at 3 and 4, Batch at 5. Barker as expected drops to reserve. https://ipswichwitches.co/raceday-preview-kings-lynn-premiership-h/ Interesting set of averages there! Starke is a doubt with his wrist injury, so with these bizarre looking new averages, Batch, Riss, Barker and Hume can take a R/R which in all likelihood strengthens us.

Starke is considered “doubtful” at the moment. “It was a really busy night for me, a lot of it taken up by trying to manage Paul’s injury and trying to spread his races out so that it didn’t put too much strain on him. Whilst he put in an exceptional shift, I know he was in immense pain so we had to manage that the best we could. It was one ride too many in the end which resulted in him getting passed and then crashing but he did a superb job for the team tonight.“ This was from Hawkins after the meeting last week. He’s really struggling with his wrist and crashing again didn’t help. He needs to rest up really because it won’t do either him or the team any good to try and ride through it. We’re already carrying Barker, can’t be carrying two riders. Edited May 31, 2022 by Arch Stanton Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TTT 1,227 Posted May 31, 2022 If Starke rides then KL win. If it's R/R for Starke then Ipswich win due to R/R making them much more stronger with Batch & Riss being allowed to take a ride. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not being nasty but I think everyone associated with Ipswich hope Starke doesn't ride. No disrespect to Starkey because he's a solid rider when fit but R/R with Batchelor & Riss being allowed to take a ride is a huge difference imo. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Baldyman 6,243 Posted May 31, 2022 (edited) Surely it's all about entertainment and getting a crowd in,, so I read a few times on other threads,,, so instead of rr for Starke,, let's use BZ for the evening,, cos its all about bums on seats. Or maybe we could go local and see if Ed Sheeran fancies a spin Edited May 31, 2022 by Baldyman 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Starke is a doubt with his wrist injury, so with these bizarre looking new averages, Batch, Riss, Barker and Hume can take a R/R which in all likelihood strengthens us. The new Green Sheets should now be based on the last 18 matches, so a few more older scores will have dropped of the calculations. I don't follow them closely enough to know the impact. Next month it will be down to 16. As mentioned previously, it's the last X matches, irrespective of home or away, i.e. not half of each. By October, it will be the last 10 matches - at some point I'll work out the likely number of home/away for each team.
