  1. Past hour
  2. In the same team as Brennan? Don’t think that’s a great idea myself. R/R for me, or Rew if he fits. At least would seem more of an Ipswich team.
  3. I wouldn’t run R/R as you run the risk of another injury and running out of rides for the reserves. I think Ipswich should be looking to Charles Wright to guest.
  4. Think some of the Aussies have decided it's season over and gone back home, I know Bowes is on way home via USA
  5. That doesn't matter at all. As a commentator he and Allen simply gave their opinion that they thought the award decision was wrong, not that it was against the rules. I also thought it was too early.
  6. I thought Jason Edwards was excellent last night - really proved he is one of the best RS' available. I reckon the Ippo promotion need to send some flowers or champers to the person at Birmingham who decided to tell the BSP office that Sammy Hagon was a permanent replacement for Jason rather than an injury replacement!!
  7. 40 heats of speedway for £17 bargain of the year, U19 is a cracking line up, looking forward to seeing how cooper Rushden does. And the forecast is looking good, so come on all speedway fans, come to the Northside GT tyres arena for a cracking day out
  8. Both riders made a mistake at the same time - Douglas locked up and Emil found some grip and lifted his front wheel. Unfortunately for Emil, it was him that made the contact so he had to go.
  9. I don't think walking the league counts as finishing second in my eyes but each to there own I guess. Injuries are part and parcel of the sport unfortunately, Ipswich were unfortunate but so we're Sheffield losing woffy and Leicester losing Becker. I wouldn't say Dan T is Ipswich biggest weapon. Your biggest weapon is your number 1 surely? Dan T is a great rider but not Ipswich biggest weapon at all. Also Ipswich didn't exactly p*as the KO cup semi final did they? Lost to a side that didn't even challenge for the play offs..again doesn't seem like walking to me.
  10. Don’t get too carried away though. You only had to get the better of 3 other teams as I’m sure you’ll agree, the rest were crap. But congratulations. You did the job last night.
  11. TBF I think that was just @AceBelle! If there’s to be a sting in the tail and the unthinkable happens on Thursday, I’m sure we’ll all see him suddenly awaken from his coma 😁
  12. It was nice to see us win at Leicester with 6 riders 👏🏻 stops that argument about Sheffield finishing top and thinking they are the best side! They couldn’t beat Leicester with their 7 riders so no chance they are the best team in the league after last night 🏆 All you heard all season when Witches were top is that “wait until the play offs” from other teams… well we waited and only Leicester and Ipswich made it! Best two teams in the league then or still up for debate? 😉 If we lose it I’ll be disappointed but I do like Leicester, their fans, and their team / manager. Let’s just make Thursday an amazing atmosphere from both fans and good luck 🤞🏻
  13. https://ipswichwitches.co/raceday-guide-leicester-h-3/ Waiting on fitness update on Ellis. Will be “R/R or guest” (obviously 😂) if he doesn’t make it. R/R for me of the two options personally. Win or lose with our team.
  14. It was funny when Scotty tried in a roundabout way to get Emil to admit that his Polish team had restricted his performances, he brushed over it , didnt seem to admit or deny as you would expect.
  15. OMG, this cannot be correct, what a shambles of a decision. TW adds nothing to the series apart from his dog pooh boom boom dj rubbish. No doubt the sponsors have had their say in including a three time world championship medal winner. Cannon fodder, no less.
  16. I honestly don’t see the big deal here and think some people are overreacting. They’ve done all the team meetings in huddles etc etc. you don’t do that constantly throughout the build up to the meeting, and throughout the entire meeting do you? You’ll have moments where riders will be sitting alone in their pit chairs while their mechanics go to work. What are they supposed to do in those quiet moments? Sit and stare in to space? Some riders like to have a look on their phone to help them relax and relieve a bit of pressure. I don’t see the big issue. If they were doing it instead of joining in a team meeting then fair enough but I don’t think that was the case was it. Let’s be honest, your manager just had the hump because the meeting didn’t start the way he’d like. But it was still very early when he had his little rant and it was ill advised IMO. Quite possibly ruined any good positive atmosphere they had.
  17. There has always been a gulf between top end and bottom end riders - just look back at averages over the years. There was a time when the top league was packed full of riders who averaged 9 or 10 per meeting, and there were riders at reserve on 3 or 4. Nothing has really changed, except that league matches are on TV for all to see ...
  18. Today
  19. Anyone seen word on Adam’s condition yet today? hope he’s not too badly hurt 🤞
  20. Having watched more or less every senior meeting at Leicester since its reopening I can't ever recall seeing a dive bomb into turn 3 ever being tried, let alone working, like I said turn 1 is for that move and you see it quite often, especially from Chris Harris
  21. Riders include Cooper Rushen, Vinnie Foord, Will Cairns, Luke Harrison, Ben Trigger and Ace Pijper plus many more exciting young riders. Also after the U19 final there is the British Youth Championships 250 cc and 125 cc classes. Gates open 11:30 am, cash only . Adults £17.00 This should be a very competitive event with some of the UKs finest talent on show, get down to the GT Tyres Arena and support the stars of the future.
  22. I think that is correct although personally I dont think the 8 day rule should apply to the home team. A home rider is there every week but a guest can only be used if there is more than a 8 day gap.
