The Live Updates team is still looking for someone who can text tonight?! If you can, please let them know - thanks: https://speedwayupdates.proboards.com/thread/23552/ipswich-kings-lynn-premiership-2025

Ellis does score big at Foxhall on occasions,you make it sound he does it all the time.Was it a 6 and a 5 against Lynn this season.Shouldn’t Ipswich be able to cover that? He is 5th best at home this season,just where he is in the overall averages.

I thought it was Lucy,,,, Lucy in disguise with diamonds

The absence of Ellis will make a difference. Definitely need King to be on it, and hopefully Harris will be in a huff because the track isn't exactly how he wants it.

As mentioned kings Lynn have a 1-5 that ride Foxhall better than most other 1-5’s in the league irrelevant of how good these riders are … for example Kvech and Lawson ride Foxhall better than Kurtz and Bewley even though they aren’t as good riders Dan T has scored 2 in three of the last 4 home matches Ellis who scores big at Foxhall missing means this is open for Kings Lynn for sure

Let's not forget that (somehow) Schroek was manager of the year last season... the ultimate example of quantity over quality...

Cook ain't keen on your place. So we don't have a big scoring reserve for this one. 50-40

I say ...

Completely disagree, Jenkins had a bad crash last night and he was not riding well before the crash, definitely stick with Jason Edwards.

On the same subject I have just purchased a pile of old speedway stars from an antique shop ranging from 1967 - 1969 and the memories they bought back are brilliant. I found the the report for the very first speedway meeting I went too. Wimbledon v Swindon, where a Swindon side with Briggs, Broadbanks, Ashby and Kilby won. From that moment I was hooked. After that meeting we went to Wimbledon regularly until 1968 when Canterbury started. There is report of a meeting at Canterbury against the best of the league with 9,000 watching. The reports of all the meetings make good reading with all the star names of the era riding every week,(all for one team) Briggs,Mauger,Boocock,Ashby,Wilson, Betts, and a couple of promising new comers, Olsen and Michanek (I wonder what happened to them?) the list goes on and on with all the new riders in the new second division. If only we could return to those days.....

Are you Shovvy in disguise? Are you Shovvy in disguise?

He was just as bad when he was at Rye House. Half the fans went bald pulling their hair out at his mismanagement.

What they should do is write this as a response: The local council acknowledges the thoughts from our locals and would like to counter the proposal of a speedway stadium, if the locals would prefer a different type of community feel we are much for this and to reduce the count in traffic volumes we would like to announce that the speedway stadium will not be built in this location and instead, a new hotel will be built in its place to house migrates. The hotel will bring more jobs to the local area and we very much back this idea. Goodbye!

Think the stars may have this one,,

They say that it's better to be lucky than good... Having seen what has happened in a number of Cheetahs meetings this season... sadly Schroek is neither...

I have been told by a Premiership Clerk of Course that he often appears out of control during the meeting and is a nightmare to deal with.

I note you didn't say informed.

Great stuff! There were a few pictures of the back straight at Newport and I don't ever remember it being that busy but it was packed out!

It's odd isn't it? Simon nearly always looks miserable on TV and at times has that "rabbit in the headlights" look. But he came to the Nuneaton Speedway Supporters Club meeting a while back and he was a completely different person. Chatty, friendly, he even smiled a few times. I must admit, I changed my view of him that evening.

So the rule saying riders must sign to say they've been paid for the previous meeting obviously has no teeth whatsoever.

I can only see this as a Sheffield win and no doubt if it is it will be all down to the Manager, rather than his riders. In my opinion Sheffield have been a successful side for the last 4-5 seasons despite their Manager, rather than because of their Manager, who frankly at times appears clueless when interviewed.

I left at 10.05 and it was still going on

Yeh but he’s been like that since the start of the season

Don’t think the rules of only 1 tacsub and riders having to have 3 rides give the Team Managers a lot of leeway and options bar tactical use of reserves in most cases.Schroek seems to make some strange decisions though.We don’t know what’s going on in the Pits.
