Chris Louis was one of those. He admitted he had opportunities to leave Ipswich back in the day and should have moved to a bigger track for the benefit of his career. He just couldn’t bring himself to leave his hometown club that he loved.

In your opinion it’s nonsense, in MY opinion, it isn’t. As I said, we’ll agree to disagree. There’s been far too many riders over the years to mention that have come out and said riding different size tracks was good for their careers and improved them as riders. Moving from the NSS would be a breath of fresh air for him. You disagree because you see him as a Belle Vue rider and nothing else and don’t want him to move.

Can someone explain how Jake Allen can ride for Redcar tomorrow when he rode last Sunday, doesnt the 8 day rule apply?

Soon to be “hard at work building another winning team”. Winning it is one thing, always that bit harder to retain it the following year as you have to weaken the side, or pretty much start from scratch and build something completely new. We’ll be there or thereabouts though I’m sure.

I disagree its nonsense hence the best riders in the world ride Poland. Bewley has areas to improve none of them are to do with riding tiny tracks. Unless Ipswich are going to get a GP, which they won't.

Big mistake if there are and even more so if it’s two over the same weekend which is just not required. If there is to be 2 UK GPs they could do a lot worse, all things considered than giving Ipswich a go which would attract a larger attendance than Manchester at a greater lower cost to provide thus an opportunity for reasonable admission prices.

What an absolutely cracking meeting, those young boys really put on a show well done to them all. Feel for Vinnie tonight he didn't deserve that twist of fate. Big well done to Luke Harrison who kind of won it without being noticed too much. Shame the track had dried late on in the meeting which somewhat negated the effectiveness of the outside which had been working well earlier.

think he blew an engine Neila. I was absolutely gutted for him. After working his way through from 4th to 1st he was cruelly denied the championship with a mechanical issue.

Think Loftus is one to watch for the future.Has come on a lot in 1/2 a season

For Poole I’ll be wanting at least 12 points. Anything less than 10 I wouldn’t fancy our chances. 16 and higher I’d be confident. I don’t think they had Nagel in either of our meetings at their place? He rides their place like a heat leader.

You know or you think?

Superb meeting.

Absolute brilliant meeting to end season Well worth £17 And how well was it ran not 1 tapes offence Only a few fallers also

Who is Rushden?

Well done to Luke deserves a win think he was bit unlucky last year.Vinnie’s turn this year,has had a good season though and improved as a rider IMO.

Totally disagree. Personally I think it would do him the world of good to have Ipswich or Leicester as him home track. Cardiff is nothing like Ipswich. IMO he needs a move away from the NSS. Agree to disagree on this one.

Some of them might be there Badge? We’ve got the Junior meeting next week and I know Louis wanted some of the senior Witches from this year to be there to help the youngsters with advice etc. I know what you mean though, collectively as an Ipswich team.

A 3 man run-off for the title after 20 heats, brilliant stuff. Well done young Luke H...

Holding a GP at Ipswich would be a worthwhile consideration. They have had a Stox world final there and accommodated 10k crowd something not possible for Speedway elsewhere in the UK without a considerable gamble on initial cost. Not saying instead of Manchester but “as well”.

He wanted to ride for Belle Vue, the rules prevented it, he'd already done a deal in Sweden. Lots of replies to my comment so will reply here, every year theres fan rumores of Dan signing for thier club and every year he signs for Belle Vue, he will do so again imo. Dan won't gain anything towards becoming world champion by riding Ipswich every week, the days of needing to ride small tracks to be world champion are gone. One of the most techinical tracks in the GP was Cardiff, he won that 2 out of 3 times.

Or Foxhole 🙄 we haven't had that lately 😜 Anyway the dust has settled, I've finally managed to watch a recording, thanks to YouTube and rifling data from hubby's phone due to Internet failure from Thursday afternoon until this lunchtime so thanks city fibre and EE 🤡, it's hit me now that this Thursday in the pits, the magnificent 7 ( well 9) won't be there, that's it😲 What a fabulous team we've had the privilege to watch and support.

Was his 'ban' in 2022 when he decided to ride in Poland and Sweden instead of the UK?

Probably a completely different take when you’re watching sat up in the stands, compared to actually standing on it. It’s a very nice compliment to Ipswich either way. It was some occasion, an occasion we haven’t seen the like of anywhere here for a number of years. Fair play to them.

They’d be neither “tapping up” or “poaching” Dan Bewley. Dan Bewley is not currently Belle Vue’s rider. He’s a free agent and can negotiate with whomever he likes, and Chris Louis can do likewise. Mark Lemon can enter negotiations with Tom Brennan if he wishes, or Jason Doyle, or any 2025 Ipswich witches rider come to that. He’d be doing absolutely nothing wrong. No tapping up or poaching needed.

You'd have thought he would have remembered the podium... he was stood on top of it last year at Leicester!
