KevtheRev Posted June 16 Report Share Posted June 16 I wasnt there so I can't make any detailed comments, so we'll done the Stars. I like Kvech so glad to see him scoring well. Want the witches hitting form at the end of the year, so given the circumstances an aggregate bonus point is welcome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I admire the fact he wants to, but someone needed to tell him otherwise. Can you imagine the grief Doyle would've gotten on here, had he come through the GPs unscathed & then not turned up tonight? Did he ride in Poland yesterday? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did he ride in Poland yesterday? No extraliga fixtures yesterday. Another really enjoyable night of speedway at the Norfolk Arena and a very comfortable Lynn victory in the end although it looked anything but after heat 8. A good atmosphere, some decent racing and above all else a young, local lad making a big impression on his home senior debut, take a bow Jody Scott. Kvech was excellent as was Lawson after heat 1. Bomber was Bomber and the others chipped in. Ipswich massively missing Thompson and best wishes to Doyle after his withdrawal. Ben Cook back next Monday according to Rob Lyon after the meeting.

Bash Posted June 16 Report Share Posted June 16 Well down to KL for the win, Witches carrying too many passengers tonight and KL making the most of Kvech at reserve. If Ipswich can get their full team back for next months visit will be interesting to see the result with no Kvech at reserve. Not sure who will be at reserve but can’t see them scoring as much as Kvech. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevin bass Posted June 17 Report Share Posted June 17 7 hours ago, Aries said: Wouldn’t have made any difference here. Too many Ipswich riders underperforming at the moment and it’s losing Dan Thompson that has been the biggest killer. Well deserved win for Lynn, a reserve scoring paid 20 will always see a side a victory. Kvech riding superbly at the moment. No disrespect to Mountain or Simon Lambert but the must be better options out there to replace Dan, not that he can be replaced the way he was riding b4 his injury tbf, just don't think Hawkins/Louis choice of guests to cover are the best.

Good all round performance last night in the end,with only Iversen not performing.He'a had a strange season stat wise,only 3 race wins until he wins 3 at Oxford on Thursday,then he had 2 last places all season until he gets 3 last night,without his 2 exclusions oʻ🤔 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kelvinht Posted June 17 Report Share Posted June 17 Good win for the Stars. Doyle clearly not fit in his first 2 rides, gating and trying to ride smoothly round inside. Turned up to avoid 28 day ban so he can ride later in week in Poland? Ipswich seemed to crumble after he pulled out, or did it just give the stars a morale boost. Either way, it turned the match. Klindt and to a lesser degree Lawson looked really poor in first few rides then suddenly turn into match winners. Good debut for Jody, very promising. Nki was trying hard, but for whatever reason wasn't quite working for him tonight. Kvech and Bomber just brilliant... After PK pulled out I feared the worst so to end up with a good win was a massive bonus. After Emil, the only real Ippo rider to show much fight was Jenkins 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShanoXtra Posted June 17 Report Share Posted June 17 Am I right in thinking in roughly 10 heats at the last two Lynn visits Ellis scored about 5 or 6 points… I thought he could ride that place? He has really fallen off a cliff recently, don’t know about any other witches fan but soon as I see King, Ellis and Brennan come out for any heat I don’t have a clue what I’m about to watch, they are so unpredictable at the moment. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I.e shouldn’t have rode at SGP, was clear to see he wasn’t ready, what has an extra 3/4 points gained him in the series honestly over 2 GPs, I’d say it’s worked against him because he then had to ride last night which wasn’t the right call and again probably on the back foot for Gorzów due to aggravating his injury. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Col Posted June 17 Report Share Posted June 17 10 hours ago, Aries said: Brennan has been a disappointment so far it has to be said. I wonder if he’s one of those riders that prefer to be riding all the time? He’s dropped the championship and now has big gaps in his calendar. Riding regularly for Ipswich, Bydgoszcz & Västervik is surely enough along with SEC. 10 hours ago, Daniel Smith said: With the season not starting so hot for Robert Lambert, could he be tempted back earlier than August/September 🤔 Unlikely... Torun & Västervik look well set for the end of season play offs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FAST GATER Posted June 17 Report Share Posted June 17 IMO Doyle is in a "cleft stick" situation needs time to heal but he's in danger of dropping out of the GP's and trying to honour his commitments to his paymasters in Poland . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not compared to last season where he was riding almost daily and it seemed to suit him! He uploads his weekly schedule on his twitter feed and there’s been many weeks where he’s only had one meeting. In theory he should be on an upward trajectory this season because he’s riding as a second string as opposed to a heat leader berth at 1 or 5 like at Birmingham last year, but if anything he’s gone in the opposite direction! Still plenty of time though to turn that all around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StarBoy Posted June 17 Report Share Posted June 17 What another fantastic night of speedway at the Norfolk Arena for the Stars. Really didn’t have high hopes going into the meeting, and was expecting Ipswich to never get out of second gear and still win comfortably. How I was proved wrong. It great to see some atmosphere, and Lynn fans giving Witches fans some stick as they swiftly tried to exit after heat 14. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds exactly the same as we saw at the GP’s. Still sharp as ever getting out of the gate, but after a lap or two in obvious discomfort and stuck in reverse. That’s purely a fitness issue. He’s had two extended breaks now to let it settle and he still isn’t fit. I fear for him at the moment I’ve got to be honest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I totally get your point, but I was thinking, what if after the GP he thought like you "that was a bad idea, I shouldn't have ridden" then pulled out of Monday's match. Then the aggro would've come. I think his biggest mistake was his first comeback for the Poland vs Rest of World match, that was the most unnecessary fixture he's ridden in imo. Then had he listened to his Polish club & not ridden for them that weekend (thus not suffered another crash), would he have been fully fit now? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He didn’t ride for the rest of the world, he was missing that due to injury he sustained on the return from injury at his Polish club Częstochowa the week before which the biggest mistake of them all. You can’t possible get over his injury within a week. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lynn wouldn't have a 3 point reserve.If for instance Lynn got rid of Cook and Iversen that would give Lynn 14.27 to use before month end,that's Zmarzlik and a 5.27 rider😁.Cook/Klindt would give you 13.90 that's a 9 pointer and a 4.90 rider.None of them nowhere near a 3.If they were to tempt Lambert(which they won't )they could have something like 6.66 or 6.29.Or actually if Cook was to ride you could bring Lambert in for Klindt.So they could quite easily get a no1 in without having to get a 3 pointer.When I say easily,I mean on the average fitting idea,not actually being able to convince a no1 to come and ride here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
