HAWKINS: BRING ON THE STARS!

IPSWICH manager Ritchie Hawkins says his riders are fully aware of the club’s rivalry with King’s Lynn ahead of a big Bank Holiday clash in the ROWE Motor Oil Premiership next week.

Since the Witches returned to the top-flight they have dominated their meetings with the Stars and Hawkins is keen to see that continue next Monday.

He said: “Bar Tom (Brennan), who is new to the side this year, everyone in the team already knows how important these meetings are to everyone.

“These boys have got an outstanding record in recent years against King’s Lynn, and the way things are going we will be looking to carry that on this year.

“We have got seven riders who love being part of the club and they are all in on our values. Everyone in the pits is working together to achieve our goals.

“That in itself is enough and breeds the loyalty and commitment we want, and I don’t think anyone can question that we have had that over the last few seasons.”
