Wolves will feel frustrated here. Any kind of contribution from Kemp and that’s more points on the board. Wonder if he’s on borrowed time..

Lynn were lucky Starke was missing. A measly 5 points for R/R when he hit paid 16 here last year. Could have been a big 4 pointer…

That’ll do nicely

Starke got paid 16 here last year so obviously likes the place so shame he’s missing. R/R looks ok for covering him though so let’s see what his R/R rides accumulate. Another point will do here.

Indeed.

Foxhall nowhere near as tight as Monmore these days. Speaking to an ex Witches rider a few weeks back, compared to the old circuit Foxhall is now “very easy to get around”. Whether that’s a good thing or bad thing from an Ipswich perspective is up for debate, but it’s a fact that a large number of riders used to be beaten before they’d even got to Foxhall and some weren’t prepared to even give it a go because of how narrow and tight it was. On the flip side you had top riders who loved it. Nielsen and Crump used to name it as their favourite track.

Take the point. Ticking along nicely.

Did I just see Zmarzlik blow his nose in a rag, and then wipe said rag all over his face? Lol

Feel for King, it isn’t just tonight he hasn’t been on it all season. Need to support him though because he’s a damn good rider at this level. On another note, what a class act Doyle is. Dragged us out of a hole more than once. Is there another rider around that’s not just as good as him, but gives his all every time in our country? Worth his weight in gold this fella.

Should give Barker first R/R in heat 1, give him a sighter ready for heat 2. Save Batch and Riss for later in the evening.

Should be a healthy crowd tomorrow I’d expect. Bank holiday so most people not working, weather forecast looks great for tomorrow with wall to wall sunshine, and the old enemy back in town. Both teams in decent form and going well so expect a fair few from Lynn will come down as well. Looking forward to it.

Panthers need a change or two otherwise they’ll be out of contention in record time. Problem being there’s very few options left in this country that could make a difference. Getting riders in from Europe can be pricey, will Buster splash the cash?

Agree. Especially considering his current daft average which makes an adequate replacement pretty much impossible. 2 meetings in a week he’s missed now which is annoying to say the least.

I think we win either way personally. Although Lynn for a point if Starke rides which I hope he doesn’t to be honest.

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.

Crikey an absolute stinker from Sheffield. Impressive from Wolves.

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.

Well done boys! Got away with one there but fantastic under the circumstances.

Reading some of the Poole fans’ comments Badge, seems he hasn’t been quite on it this year for them either? Maybe Lisa will tell us more on that. I know when he came to see us after the meeting a few weeks back he had an ice pack on his wrist and he’s currently struggling a bit with an injury.

Was for Swindon, the track suited him and his style. Foxhall not so much. Surprised though that someone else hasn’t took him on like a Sheffield for example. Maybe he’s happy giving Britain a miss these days. On a good average now mind.

Lovely rider, average too high for one change unfortunately. Would have to be another double change. We missed the boat with him. Many years ago he was very good friends with Heeps (still is) and he was touted for a ride here but we never took the plunge.

Just got to hope Starke is fit enough to make a difference here because he really does make a difference for us. If we’re going to get away with one here then it’s the reserves that will pull us through as that’s one area of this Wolves team that we should be dominating. Hopefully Hume resumes where he left off against Sheffield. Doyle won’t have it all his own way either as we know Masters loves Foxhall and goes really well here, as do a few of the others in Wolves’ top 5. Tough meeting.

Oh 100%. Just the one dip mind

Was never likely that one really.
