Baldyman 4,697 Posted January 22 I'm guessing for a club like Ipswich, it's going to be more about bums on seats than a winning team this year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Shouldn’t that be no.1 priority at all times? A winning team is a bonus on top of that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As a supporter i like to see my team win everything if they can.Now if i was the owner i would want to make money first and win something second.As a business you always want to run at a profit don't you?There is a fine balance though as some supporters will only turn up to see a winning team.So while wanting to make money you also need a competitive team to get those extra supporters through the turnstiles.

Baldyman 4,697 Posted January 22 All I'm saying is, I can see it being less about winning this year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lisa-colette 2,728 Posted January 22 Is Seth still doing his racing (is it car racing, I can't remember) in the UK this year? I thought that was the main reason why Jason was coming back to the UK? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dontforgetthefueltapsbruv 8,565 Posted January 22 Rumour of Crump to Sheffield (replacing Pedersen) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Falcon1983 161 Posted January 22 Believe Seth is signed to MSS Kawasaki which is Colchester based to Crump riding for Ipswich fits in very well with all logistics Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spl77 337 Posted January 22 It's very interesting now, much was made of signing Crump and it produced quite alot of attention.... Maybe there will be a further reduction in this average.... I would be suprised if he isn't at Ipswich however I was surprised he signed last winter anything is possible! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Baldyman 4,697 Posted January 22 Be interesting to see who our other reserve will be,,,anyone got any ideas? Not many riders around on a 3 to 4 that isn't a rising star, and that might be half decent. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Arch Stanton 976 Posted January 22 Is Chris Holder available to clubs in this country? Maybe we’ll revert to last years plan A? Think he’s on an average just over 6, over two points lower than Crump. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
