Ipswich Witches 2025

We’ve got to weather the storm here for a while. You’d think we’ll be without Doyle for a few weeks more now after last nights setback and Dan is a massive miss. Brennan also is suffering a real dip in form, not sure what’s wrong with him at the moment. The important thing is to have everyone fit and firing for the play offs but the KOC has come at a poor time for us. Was a forgone conclusion that we were getting through that tie with Lynn with all due respect, but now I’d say it’s 50/50. 
 

It’s now we need Emil to stand up and be counted. He’s looked untouchable for the majority of the last two seasons hitting maximums for fun, but he’s looked a level below that this year.

I think we need to stop arguing about the crash he had and just hope he is not too badly injured and is back soon. Report suggests injury to hip again so hope it isnt worse because he came back sooner than he should have.

Agreed. The main thing is that he comes back fit and healthy, I saw reports this morning in Poland from the president of Częstochowa that Doyle complained of the same hip giving pain after the crash and also that Doyle himself asked to race as he felt no pain before the meeting, although the team said it might not be wise, but they let the rider decide.

Either way it’s done now, just another road to recovery! Anyone heard news on Thompson as he is a big miss for us???

An outside chance of featuring in the Cup next week, although more chance of the second leg a week Thursday but nothing ruled in or out yet. It’s a day by day thing and extensive treatment continues. 
 

Again, you have to be careful not to rush back too soon and risk further damage when there is so much of the season left to run. It’s always tempting to get back on the bike at the earliest opportunity, especially when you’re not earning sitting on the sidelines, but you could end up not earning even longer by rushing back!

The hands/Wrists are troublesome injuries and can be the worst type of injuries for riders. Yes you can ride with them, but it can severely restrict your performance. Just look at the struggles King had last year riding with his hand problem.

Dan T maybe a bigger miss than Doyle the way he was riding, imagine a broken scaphoid will take a while, doubt he will be back very soon.

Thanks for that.

Must be changed as had Emil 9.10 and Jason 9.07 when I seen it.

No, as it turns out you are right. The wrong averages were shown on issue 8 dd. 24th May, which is what I looked at, but subsequently amended the following day.

Wow, Jason really not happy about people saying he shouldn't have been riding is he? 👀

Well if riders listened to most folk nobody would get on a bike ever again ,same with woffinden, some fans saying “if I was woffy I would retire he has nothing to prove “ the fact is you’re not woffinden and if he feels the need to get back on the horse so to speak and I suspect he does he will and your opinion will have no bearing on it despite you right to voice it
