  1. Think the ref got this one spot on...clearly Scunny were having problems riding out of bend 2 and on this occasion Lewi made a hash of it and went sideways (Danny) had nowhere to go and although he tried to avoid gave him a bit of a knock, but clearly it was Kerr's fault entirely and the rider behind had to shut off and was impeded, kind of unfair riding I guess to be judged The tracks the same for everyone...you just need to learn to ride it
  2. Never really a match this one...always difficult when teams come with RR and then get a further injury, inevitably the reserves get too many rides and the whole thing becomes a procession. Thought Naughty Auty went a bit too far with one of his rides and could have easily injured either himself or someone else... as if we need more injuries ! Scunthorpe never really in it though TBF.
  3. Should be a good home win but Stefan might do well at reserve
  4. With Shanes at reserve I can see Diamonds getting a point and might even nick it myself depending on how many rides Bacon gets
  5. Sure we could all go down the "what ifs" route... what about Danny's clutch in Heat 1 and subsequent engine problems all night, he's been pretty unbeatable round Foxhall until last night, etc. etc (were you there ?) You mention money..I know its not football (been watching speedway for over 40 years mate) but where machinery is concerned money can make alot of difference, none of us can say for sure what goes on but the best possible equipment is ALL about money.
  6. Pretty happy with that...I forecast a win by ten and going into Heat 15 it looked pretty accurate, just a shame about the last race to deprive them of a point Considering the amount of money they have got backing them I suppose we should be pleased and everyone said we would struggle but they were pretty much a three man team and what about that man Shanes...wow !
  7. As everyone has said Danny and Rory have been on good form so Tom and Jack Vs Connor and James will be important, looking forward to seeing young Dan Bewley ride in the Championship, cos he seems to clear up everywhere at national level ! I fancy the Witches to win by around 10
  8. Bit more hopeful than some for \Ipswich...the reserves are gonna be key I recon
  9. You were spot on there .....just as you said left the tapes too long and there were lots of 15m.......and then the crowd went mental when a blatant roller by Garrity (having done it all night) was missed by Gay ! .....he said he didn't see it, but he must have been the only one because everyone else did, I think a visit to specsavers is in order Mr Ref. Then there was argy-bargy between Schleiny and Barker, Ben clearly raising his elbows over Rory but the start line marshall didn't seem to be pulling them apart enough ? (I imagine there was more to it than that because Rory was clearly not happy and he's normally pretty fair minded)
  10. Ippo were pretty in it for a point until Nico's crash and then got hammered on the last few heats, lets hope Nico's ok..... nasty
  11. Which is of course why Peterborough graded the track for heat 15 to favour the outside knowing that Ippo had 1 and 3 ....of course just to favour "good racing"
  12. End result - cradley 43 fen tigers 46......cracking meeting
  13. Only just..very happy with witches performance and our point...cracking match. Panthers might struggle when Lambert moves down to reserve, shame its not later in the Season
  14. ...thought you only just won by ten, 35 all at heat 13 ? or am I missing somethin ? different story at West Row
  15. Looking forward to this one...havn't seen Bridger ride for a while, we all know what Doolan, Vissing and Ayres can do at Foxhole but we need to pile on the points to have a hope over the two legs !
  16. Well impressed with the Witches first outing, gotta be right up there at the top this Season Danny - Best number one in the League for me Cameron - doing well...lets hope he can kick on this Year Nico - Had a good / bad night, maybe the bankings taking time to get used to ? Rory - Well impressed with Schleiny, he looked like he was coasting and had another gear, lets hope the injury's ok...he pulled up in H15 Danyon - Awesome effort, looks like he's come on over the Winter Connor - Early doors, should improve with time...can see the potential Good luck boys !
  17. Yes pls. Bruv, I can use a few by the start gate....can I see you before kick off on Thursday ?
  18. Yep, I'm thinking of what "toys" I can use, cos I don't think my whistle's having that much impact ? (and I don't want any rude remarks)
  19. Really good start to the Season, thought the team looked great, although double points made it look alot closer than it was. Was it just me or did Aunty Babs miss two blatant roller's from Lasse ?? we were sitting by the start gate and it looked like he was half way up the track before the others had let their clutches out ! Great work by the "Massif" ...lovin the siren thingy and the cow bells, nice work peeps
  20. I see young Jordan Jenkins was getting a bit of pre season practice on the Island
  21. Does anybody know if we are close to announcing the final rider ?
  22. Don't forget that Ipswich had an awful lot to do with the new era at Mildenhall and whilst Kevin has gone on to develop Mildenhall on his own there are still very close links between the two clubs (Cameron Heeps and Connor Mountain for example in recent times) but Chris did a hell of alot when it first changed over
