It’s the coldest speedway meeting I’ve ever been too I think lol

We are doing ok our riders will always score fine at home and the reserves look strong 

Kings Lynn have a weak tail at the moment

April is a funny month, I have been to Good Friday meetings at Lakeside where it has been as high as 30 degrees during the day and conversely another at 4 degrees in the evening.

Good Team Performance to get the season up and running, Every Rider getting at least a paid win apart from Nicholls but he'll get it right at home eventually imo.

King's Lynn have problems already, No member of the tail end scored a point against an opponent until Heat 14.

The youngsters will come good but the KL promotion are asking too much too soon imo as they're racing against riders who've got years of experience over them.

Pretty satisfied with 40 points after an awful start, Lynn were yards behind going into the first turn and paid the price. Thereafter was better with plenty of encouraging signs, thought Rushen & Scott were on the pace and didn't look out of place, will only get better. But for the EF for Jan and the referee daydreaming at the start of heat 8 it could have been a bit closer.

Deserved win for Ipswich though and the Stars have it all to do to grab the bonus on Monday.

Blimey, the wind made it feel like the Arctic at Foxhall tonight. Bomber, Kvech & Lawson were entertaining, shame the bald dry track made it a bit of a gatefest. The Lynn reserves will get better, Scott in particular looking on the pace.

Good crowd and a comfortable win. Did scott get distracted by the red light in heat 3? Edwards Man of the match for me. I think this group may come down to the bonus point with us and lynn. Shout out to Lawson for great win in heat 15.

Tac sub 5-1 meant the scoreline flattered lynn imo, long long tail.

Decent first home performance throughout the team, Scotty will fair better when the track is grippier and he can work the bike and find different lines.

Understand the comments on the track getting slick and dusty quite quickly tonight but I don’t think there’s much more they can do with such a strong drying wind as this evening, it was well watered before the meeting and watered at each grading break, while dry and dusty towards the end it was consistent and smooth which is good to see.

Excellent point regarding Lynn's long tail. Everyone talks about Fricke, Harris and Kvech. The problem is if anyone has an off night you are asking kids to carry the team. My point being that you can potentially ruin up and coming British youngsters by pushing them too early. Yes the league is weaker but it's still a tough ask for 16 year olds.
