My parents who are both in their early 80's and have had season tickets for a long as i can remember have not bothered getting one this season, they have instead invested in a BSN season ticket and then pick n choose whether they attend a live meeting depending on the weather on the day, can't say i blame um at their age if it's gonna be a cold/wet evening.

10 minutes ago, cowboy cookie returns? said:Not sure about that. Jordan I’m sure will come good but we’re still unbeaten with a under performing Jordan.
Im of the same thinking tbf, i think Ipi can afford to carry Jordan atm till he finds his feet, he just needs a spell at reserve to get some confidence, young Dan is picking up decent points home and away and Ellis is doing his bit and like been said their still unbeaten so it ain't all bad.

Sure i read it somewhere that a 28 day contract doesn't count towards his average same as guesting hence why he had a month at Wolves last season and then stepped in at Birmingham at the start of this season and still retains the same average regardless of his scores

It's going back yrs but Billy Lellman im sure came over the same yr as Shane Parker and if i remember correctly looked on par with Shane what i saw of them at Foxhall, i think he did leave and return to Australia because he was home sick

3 hours ago, foreverblue said:A much more solid team this season, Ellis is a great signing and Dan T will be a good reserve, much better than most and will improve, Rew will also improve.
Ipi certainly looks stronger on paper compared to last season even tho we all know nowt is ever won on paper, Ellis is an upgrade on Riss and Jenkins should hopefully score as much or more then Hume once he gets to grips with Foxhall, and by the looks of things young Dan has started off on the form he was showing last season before injury cut his season short.

Decent display from Birmingham considering they were writing off as the leagues whipping boys before a wheel was turned, closer meeting then expected helped by the fact that Emil binned it twice which was very unlike him, hats off to Scotty tho, show's he can still mix it at 45.

What's the weather doing Ipi way atm, coz im like 15 mile away and it's tipping it down, i know the Ipi trackstaff can turn most wet tracks around but the forecast is to stay like this till early evening at least.

Think Tobi will end up at Lynn

I still wonder if they'll give Jack Thomas another chance rather than young Dan.
-
I know young Dan had a good run of form before he got injured and wouldn't mind seeing him back again but what's the chances of Jack Thomas being given another chance if he's fully fit again and wants to return to speedway, i know it could be a risk as you never can tell how he'll return after a season out after a bad injury.

10 hours ago, Sir Sidney said:I think on the night just the trophy should be presented.
Medals should only be presented to riders who have ridden an agreed percentage of matches through the season ( which of course should have been agreed before the season).
Bit like football then, im sure any squad member had to play in 5% of league matches to receive a league winners medal, used to be set at 10% but was lowered to 5%.
-
Hopefully the powers that be will increase the team building average by a point or 2 so Ipi can run with a couple of big hitters again, we can pretty much guarantee that King will be back again i'd of thought tho.

Congrats to Sheffield, nice to see a fresh name on the throphy, end of the day Ipswich were always gonna struggle if the top 3 didn't score 30 between them as the other 4 riders haven't been good enough all season generally im afraid, end of the day it was a just pleasure to see Emil ride over here for a season.

33 minutes ago, WembleyLion said:Based on the weather forecast, if it is on tonight, quite understandably the track may not be up to its best so will be interesting to hear what our play off saviour has to say about that!
I'm sure the jumped up little sh*t won't care who wins as long as he scores a load of points and don't get owned by Emil and Doyle again
-
Ipswich have rode away at Sheffield 3 times this season once in the Cup and twice in the League and didn't score less than 39 in all 3 matches, hopefully the trend will continue this Thursday.

He won his first ride according to updates
-
I hope im wrong but can't see anything other than another Belle Vue win same as both league matches, Doyle scored 13+1 and 14 in those matches and Ipi still came up short, i can't see Harris scoring anything near that tbf.

1 minute ago, foreverblue said:If a team has to use the same riders in a two legged play off then if Ben Cook had ridden at BV then would he have to ride tonight even though Blodorn is now fit.
In the same way shouldn't Cook have ridden in the second leg of last years semi final.
Rules seem to be made up as they go along, if it goes ahead later i can see it being damage limitation for the away leg, Harris ain't gonna score no where near what Doyle would and Jack Smith never has done bugger all at this level.

Forget Holder, he's pants round Foxhall, and with Scott's TV work ramping up will he want to take many guest bookings
