It’s certainly has been a trying season for the witches with just a 4th place finish & a KO cup final. Having been use to the last few seasons of success with Jason & Emil steering them to a 4th place finish & a KO cup final in 2023 and a 4th place finish & a KO cup final in 2024 it must be hard for their fans to take this year’s level of mediocrity.

And GP at Foxhall

Crazy that Belle Vue have chosen it

I watched this meeting on the stream. Watching Drew trailing in last or worse, seeing him pull up at the back, was doubly galling as we were treated to replays of races from the BV match 7 days earlier. These included Drew blasting round the outside, scoring 6+2 including a victory over Brady Kurtz. The man is a mystery.

I’m pleased for the management at Ipswich that they’ll have the first leg at home because that will ensure a much better crowd than a second leg with very little hope of progression after a probable thumping at the NSS. That isn’t be defeatist, just realistic. It’s been a trying first season for them due to the lateness of the takeover so a chance to swell the coffers a little is welcome.

That's great. It also explains why everyone thinks that BV are going to win the play offs. They put 3 riders out in each race!

Excuse my ignorance, but what's the SVEMO tyre deal?

That @SteveArena pops up on various threads sticking the boot in on Richard Coleman. He has a bit of an unhealthy obsession with the bloke for some strange reason.

The joint Wroclaw & Ipswich contracts could certainly be interesting. Hopefully Coleman gets the backing of the BSPL to bring in some changes next year too. If true that the British Final was watched by 134k on ITV then maybe all is not lost for the sport.

So is not finishing your job, and stopping many times without any good reason before it is completed... Promoters certainly let the tails wag the dogs, and it does them little favour.. Even worse, they lose even more respect by still giving certain riders jobs...

Not many do that to Douglas around there! Especially this year.

Part of me enjoys the off season almost as much as the season itself! AGM, League set ups, rules and regs, team building. Fingers crossed the hoped eight team top league comes to fruition, or seven at the very least.

Artur Rusko and Richard Coleman have been busy the last few days putting the bulk of an Ipswich team together for next year , so you’d think things have already been loosely agreed for the League next year behind the scenes. Going to be an interesting few weeks ahead.

I am the target audience.... Like 90% of everyone else that follows the sport... Those who identify as male that is...

keep up. it was drew kemp. he went off to put his town top back on

Who was it.

👍 Could all be for nothing with SVEMO's new tyre deal.

Totally agree because in any other job, refusing a reasonable request from your manager is a disciplinary matter.

A new European style track is also being built the USA. Spain might be suitable during the winter, but Spain is a very hot and dry country so perhaps not that suitable to speedway.

Also mentions that a speedway track is being built in Spain, makes perfect sence with the amount of sunny days they have a year, perfect place for European riders to practice out of season.

The state of British speedway nobody is safe imo,poole maybe strong in there own bubble but that could easily burst at any time stadium availability, 1 league, race nights, no one to ride against are just a few reasons why it isn't safe imo.
