HagueyUK 76 Posted December 2, 2015 Fantastic news for the Warriors and the Island as a whole. Thank you for your comments, and when you are on the Island do come and say Hi. I'll be there. Andy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
spin king junior 413 Posted December 2, 2015 Please tell me they're not seriously going with the logo they've got on their website as part of their rebranding? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MrMungo 708 Posted December 3, 2015 Please tell me they're not seriously going with the logo they've got on their website as part of their rebranding? It certainly stands out! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
coventry1963 99 Posted December 3, 2015 Great news that IOW are back, it is one of the fastest and largest tracks in the UK. If you are on the island, it is very easy to get to and well worth the effort. Don't know if they will do same this year but in previous years the "Wight Flyer" allowed a trip on the SeaCat and a bus link to and from the stadium, leaving just after last race to link with the return SeaCat journey to Portsmouth which allowed mainland supporters to attend at very reasonable cost. Doesn't affect me now but I do hope they re-introduce the family ticket which really encouraged parents to bring youngsters to see speedway (let's face it -they are the future for the sport) as the kids were charged at only a pound. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SCB 15 Posted December 3, 2015 Please tell me they're not seriously going with the logo they've got on their website as part of their rebranding? Someone really needs to sort out IOWs branding and marketing. They have a terrible website and an even worse logo. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sings4Speedway 3,249 Posted December 7, 2015 Matt Saul? Really? I would probably put this down as the worst NL signing for some while. Saul was half a lap behind Sheppard mid season at Central Park and Sheppard wasn't exactly setting things alight last year. Whoever made the recommendation to IOW clearly doesn't like them very much.

21st century heathen 220 Posted December 7, 2015 I can't comment specifically about him but it's worth noting that riders at this level can make very sudden significant improvement so it's worth seeing the lad in action for a couple of months before being too harsh on him. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
teaboy279 1,038 Posted December 7, 2015 Tbf he beat both Adam sheppard and Jamie Couzins quite comfortably from gate 1 at our press and practice day. Then in the second ride he tried clamping over Jamie Couzins into turn 1 leading to a nasty spill and various broken bones. His mid season race with Sheppard would of been one of his first times back on a bike. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pete Greenwood 19 Posted December 26, 2015 Matt Saul has plenty of experience at Grasstrack as well as Speedway so if he is fit I'm sure he will do a good job at this level. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wildcat Steve 33 Posted December 30, 2015 Matt Saul? Really? I would probably put this down as the worst NL signing for some while. Saul was half a lap behind Sheppard mid season at Central Park and Sheppard wasn't exactly setting things alight last year. Whoever made the recommendation to IOW clearly doesn't like them very much. It is the Job of the club to help bring on talent and riders need to race to gain valuable experience. Is that not what the NL is for?? 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
