Ipswich V Kings Lynn Ko Cup Semi Final June 5th


Recommended Posts

Just got to hope the weather wins this one as I can't see an Ipswich win.

R/R hasn't produced the right results so far and Danyon, try as hard as he can, is unlikely to trouble 6 out of the 7 Stars.

Then you have to wonder what we'll get as a track, after the recent Blue Groove tracks!

Well drizzle all day should help in that regard! Driest spring on record and a lot of tracks have suffered with dust and blue grooves this year it’s been that dry. Just depends how heavy the rain is, but it’s due to stop around 5/6 pm at the moment.

Forecast hasn’t improved. If anything it’s gotten a little worse. Met office has continuous rain from 8 in the morning until 5pm, BBC which tbf is the least reliable I find, has rain from 8am until 2am Friday morning.

Forecast changes daily though so let’s see what the more accurate forecast will be tomorrow morning. 
 

 

While I was actually looking at the Met Office forecast for tomorrow, it actually changed from "Heavy Rain" to "Light Rain" for most of the day. As you say, the forecast is continually changing.

The forecast may be bad

It may rain

The pit gate may need repair

A hose could 'accidentally' be left on

In speedway there's always a way if you need it.....;)

Floodlights 😊

The heaviest rain is due at Foxhall tomorrow between 17:45 - 20:00. That will postpone the meeting for sure.

Met office now has rain from 7am, and now stopping at 2pm with no further rain all evening! It’s changing every half hour..

This has it petering out around 2pm and nothing after. Doesn’t actually look too bad there. As ever though, always a more reliable forecast on the actual day so let’s see what they say in the morning. 
 

I know I joked about wanting a rain off, but all jokes aside I hope it goes ahead. Hate postponements and I’d rather go and see a meeting tomorrow.

Yeah I was on metoffice but you can’t just look at the hourly forecast you need to go to the map and check it at 15 min intervals. 
 

Agree with you though, I’d rather go and watch a speedway match live whether we lose or win. Just hoping the weather holds out.

They can’t get the hourly bit right so I wouldn’t bother with the 15 minute bit 😂😉

Luke Harrison at rising star 👍🏻 you’d have a thought King’s Lynn would have had the decency to tell the fans before Ipswich put it on their preview

Its on Kings Lynn's web site.

Is this right or wrong?

I'm sure all new rising stars to the league won't have an average to start.
