Ipswich 2015


Recommended Posts

To be honest Baldyman Ippo were very unlucky at Sheffield and should have won if two of your lads had not fallen whilst in scoring positions. If Covatti turns up with good equipment all year unlike he did lowering his average last year he should end up at #3 for the witches.

Tungate and Hawkins were poor and Gino IMHO would have scored double his RR. Nielsen and Cam were impressive and Danny was Danny.

 

I wouldn't worry about qualifying for play offs if I were you.

Some riders need to get their backsides in gear though. Tungate just hasn't really started at all whilst after a promising start, Heeps has gone backwards again.

 

Hawkins is proving the biggest problem though. Never a world beater, but a steady eddie 5 pointer who chips in with vital points in most meetings.

 

So far he's chipped in with nothing.

 

A few riders are currently riding way below their abilities.

Think this thread title should be changed to 'Ipswich 2016' if both the team & management fail again tonight at Plymouth!

It will be season over and the crowd will stay at home, oh and I did warn everyone before the season started about the 'cheap' TM option route that Louis has gone down once again...........

I also said we could end up as low as tenth.....everyone laughed. Not laughing so much now hey. Our team was built on everyone improving. Guess what. Was never gonna happen. Take nico scoring away and it really shows how bad we have been.

I also said we would beat Sheffield and Berwick easily. So best I don't say anything anymore

Lots of things to look at, king is an out and out number one, scores big but isn't a team rider, had no intention to team ride with tungate in heat 15.

 

The whole team look soft, no hard chargers willing to dominate, they should literally bully teams at home.

 

From what I have seen Covatti, Nielsen, Manzares and King I'd keep 100%
