Bash

There was nothing wrong with the track, the gating tart just wasn't making the starts and when he did it was against two far from fit riders in King & Ellis. He also needs to take a lesson from his brother on how to take a bit of banter😀

With the hold Poland have over riders not a lot to choose from as other teams have found out. If Doyle's injury had happened a week earlier maybe we could have beaten Birmingham to get Freddie

The problem is because Sheffield chopped and changed guests for both legs the rules have been clamped down on so there is a limited number of guests available. Also this was meant to be a free week for the cup final only but because of King's Lynn over running with their fixtures it has reduced the guests available even more. Ipswich could've tried to get some Leicester riders like Fricke, Lawson, Douglas, Masters & Becker to guest as Ipswich knocked them out in the first round and not the semi-finals. A one side final like this does nothing for the sport. Expect a similar score to the first leg tonight.

We were only saying that Jordan was the only one who hadn’t been injured this season last week,so a full house now unbelievable. Danny now has an excuse if he rides tonight. If the pair don’t ride I can see Batchelor & Heeps coming in!!!

This is a cup final FFS and they can’t even get a guest. Are you telling me that Chris Harris has turned down a guest booking. They tell the fans to turn up and get behind the team and they put a team out like that.

With the way Harris is riding currently they are probably better off going with RR

Lindgren’s polish club banned him from guesting. Bewley who knows?

Last time at Sheffield at the beginning of August he scored 4 points from 5 rides and he won one race, so are you sure he will score 7 or 8. He was poor at our last away match at Birmingham as well

Hopefully last night showed the changing of the guards and Brennan replaces King next season

With those lineups it’s Sheffield’s cup to lose. Why have we got Lidsey, surely Bewley would’ve been better! Or have Poland stopped him guesting as well as Lindgren. I gather it will be Scott instead of Jaimon for the second leg.

Don't they use the transponders at KL to determine who beat who?

Like other posters have stated his first meeting back doesn't have to be in England, he missed one meeting for Ipswich since his accident last Thursday and it's not like he has ridden in Poland and then missed a meeting in England like some riders have. He will be in the Ipswich team tonight. Just because he missed Monday doesn't mean he wouldn't be fit to ride the following day, you have to be fit to return sometime, just like if you were ill you can feel crap one day and better the next.

Okay thanks for clearing that up

Why what happened?

On the Witches preview for Thursday they have Antti Vuolas as a guest for him as he is unwell. Not worth giving him a 28 day ban as this is Birmingham’s last league match. Like you said what a joke!!!! If he comes back next season give him a ban to start the season.

The thing is the Sheffield V Ipswich match is KOC not a league match so why should Eurosport be able to tell them it can’t be streamed.

Just do a swap for Tom Brennan, seeing as Danny has ridden for Birmingham before even tho you wouldn’t know it from his score tonight.

Obviously the Ipswich promotion didn’t think many would turn up last night and my friends turned up at 7.15 and they had run out of programmes!!!! That crowd wasn’t that big.

Robert Lambert wouldn’t ride for Ipswich even if asked

Another reason why we should go with a full team and not RR.

And another one bites the dust, Kenyan Rew ruled out of the meeting after crashing through the pit gate in heat 2

King has been a loyal servant for Ipswich over the years but I think it is time he moved on. For someone of his experience around Foxhall he rides the wrong lines like last night, kept going to the fence on bend 2 and getting passed up the inside. Time for new blood like Tom Brennan or like others have said Jan Kvech.

Makes me laugh that Hawkins says the defeats are down to having not enough bodies in the team at the moment, yet we are still going RR on Thursday. Going RR and losing Emil has affected all the riders now and their confidence seems to have drained away.

Will any of the BV supporters come on here like the Sheffield ones and claim Ipswich will win with a line up like that. Another home loss coming and wouldn’t surprise me to be a bigger loss than the previous two. Can’t believe we are going RR again, the spirit in the team has been eroded with losing Emil.

Why don't they get Fast Freddie to guest against BV seeing as he has an average as of the 12/08
