Ipswich v Peterborough June 23rd
stu219 replied to Arch Stanton's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Weather you agree with the superheat its box office for sure. Just had to see that nonone left before the end and the reaction of the crowd showed the passion. Many have been crying out for this and we got it last night. My thoughts for what its worth is that the super heat should just be for an extra point though. So last night it would have been ipswich 2 points and boro 2 points. Still worth having the super heat though and we all got an extra race and what a race it was hey? -
Ta for that . Nice easy profit from my 20 quid bet!
-
Thats fair enough but what 7 pointer? Were there any available that were in the budget the club could afford. I dont know. And who is to say Klindt even wanted to sign? Its easy for us arm chair followers who do not have to balance the books to think it should be done different. lets enjoy the team we have as for once we actually have a very competitive team who still have room for improvement
-
Who would you have changed from the team we have now?
-
Yes Ben ,after a dodgy start when many were questioning the wisdom of signing him to replace heeps is proving to be a vital member of the team. Those who were saying we were wooden spoon contenders not saying so much now hey? Apart from Peterborough there is little to chose from the other 5 teams but I feel we have not reached our full potential yet. lets hope the injurys keep away from our 7 for a change..
-
Great win from the boys. When we finally get a full team and everyone fires as they can then we are a match for any team despite some writing us off a few weeks ago! and without doubt we finally have a number 1 who has to be the best in the league by far.
-
Ok fair enough. Does open it up for abuse though as any number 7 could pull out and then be replaced by the better reserve. Sometimes the rules are way to complicated for a mere mortal as myself lol
-
How does worrell come in in heat 8 as a replacement. Heat 8 is a protected heat so surely only the number 8 can come in as a replacement??

Its not the rearrangements that cause the problem at the end of the season but the knock on effect it has. It happens every single year . Just look at the play offs last year. People dont go to watch in those crappy october evenings but speedway never learns -

Damned if you do and damned if you dont but in days gone by they only called of matches when it did actually rain. In the Uk The one business you dont listen to is the weather forcasters lol -

No rain about 5 miles from the track and not looking like rain either but it MIGHT rain so maybe calling it off incase is the best option lol! It could well piss it down and prove to be the correct call but if not and stays dry there will be a few turn up not knowing its been called off and be annoyed to say the least -

The problem with that prediction of thunderstorms its impossible to predict where and when they will occur. its getting a problem now when clubs call of meetings because it MIGHT rain. The promoters may well have made the correct decision but then maybe they may not have. Not sure I could run my business that way but it is what it is I guess I also understand that there is a fine line in profit and loss in crowd numbers but the problem is every single year clubs run out of time to run meetings and end up running them on a cold damp october when no one wants to attend so they end up losing money then anyway. we have had it happen at Ipswich for many years (although not last year when we got knocked out of everything early on lol) . -
