Super Blue 616 Posted March 27, 2018 Well it's been raining and now it's the slightest of drizzle, it was undecided when I spoke to Bob the track man but as some of the guys have been out looking at the track and now they are moving the stock car trucks off the centre green I'm guessing they are going to give it a go. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Super Blue 616 Posted March 27, 2018 Apparently not going to happen now, they just turned the air fence off after a chat on the track. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pob 545 Posted March 27, 2018 Its a shame it couldn't have been held last Thursday night at seeing as its the traditional night for speedway at Ipswich . They could have opened up the gates for fans to watch ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Super Blue 616 Posted March 27, 2018 Pity the guys couldn't get a few laps under their belts around Foxhall before the season gets underway, especially the one newbie we've got on board but as Bob said to me it would have probably seriously screwed the track over for Friday.

Stainlesssteelride 106 Posted March 27, 2018 I think the weather will do a perfectly good job of screwing the track over for Friday. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
89buttons 749 Posted March 28, 2018 Encouraging to see both Connor and danyon score some good points tonight in NL challenge - 12 from 5 and 10 from 4 rides respectively, should be a good confidence boost for them to get the season going! 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Siggytastic 180 Posted April 1, 2018 Do anybody know What the Glasgow fan who was asked about the upcoming season has against The Witches to predict us finishing 9th in this weeks very good Speedway Star. But he also has Peterborough finishing 2nd ahead of Glasgow. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stainlesssteelride 106 Posted April 1, 2018 Maybe just clueless? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Arch Stanton 2,241 Posted April 2, 2018 Saw that and had a chuckle I must admit. Obviously everyone has an opinion and even though you wont agree with some of these predictions, you can nearly always make a case for most of them. But now and again you’ll come across one or two that look absolutely miles off. Another has us 6th ( I very much doubt we’ll finish that low but fair enough, perhaps he’ll be correct..), but strangely had Workington in first place. If Worky finish first I’ll gladly buy everyone on here their season ticket for 2019 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dontforgetthefueltapsbruv 10,695 Posted April 2, 2018 I remember last year it was our fan that predicted Berwick to top the league as a result of Gary Havelock's man management........ 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stainlesssteelride 106 Posted April 2, 2018 (edited) No i think clueless, it's pretty easy to see ipswich team is better than others, if you know riders and tracks, and how good riders could be to what average they have. I don't mean clueless as a derogatory term, just their knowledge of speedway. Edited April 2, 2018 by Stainlesssteelride Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
