Basher 5 Posted October 5, 2023 As with the semi final at Sheffield, bad weather is a distinct possibility will they call it off early and reschedule or hang on til the last minute. my worry is that they go ahead, and if more rain falls and get it called off after ten heats, To get a result would they then go to the score at foxhall after ten heats and compare them and use that as a final aggregate score based on that ? 34 - 26 in favour of the witches after heat ten, only an 8 point lead 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pinny 2,536 Posted October 5, 2023 Sheffield's team ruined by injuries is a shame to see. A fully fit side, you would of expected them to win this over two legs. Think Danny King has been a big key to Ippos success late on, Doyle and Emil have been racking up points for fun all season where as King wasn't . He has been flying for them lately. Still, a shame to see injuries ruin any chance of a competitive final. The likes of Lambert mouthing off on camera do nothing good for the sport to any newcomer who may of tuned in to watch the final. Fancy turning your back on your home league for the majority of the season then coming back for a few quid at the end of the season and slagging the tracks on live TV. Kn0bend.

If it is a bad forecast postpone it . If it goes ahead and it rains dont let it go to heat 10. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I still think Sheffield have a good chance. I very much doubt Tai or Tobi would have beaten Ipswich top two at Foxhall , Chris Holder was an embarrassment, probably get double figures tonight.King has been brilliant lately but may struggle tonight, it will depend on the lower order riders , Emil and Doyle wont go unbeaten tonight. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RideHard 40 Posted October 5, 2023 With Tai and Toby I would be confident we could pull it back.. without them no. Think 50-40 final score 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Steve Shovlar 10,439 Posted October 5, 2023 I think this is already over. No way Ipswich should give up such a big lead with Doyle, Emil and King. But let’s hope for a last heat showdown. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MP78 17 Posted October 5, 2023 Ipswich's top 3 should comfortably get 30 between them you would hope... That leaves 7 points from the remaining 4 riders to bring it home... barring double falls/exclusions, they are guaranteed a point in heats 2, 8 and 14, which then leaves 4 to find... Please don't blow it! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
