Are they waiting for Barker statement?? Could he be cleared to ride and they drop starke instead? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Arch Stanton 2,255 Posted August 2, 2022 “Erik had a successful operation which showed no ligament damage, but he will still be out for four to six weeks which takes us to the play-offs. We are definitely looking at options at what we can do regarding that and that may or may not include Ben’s situation which we should know more about imminently. We have only got until the Belle Vue meeting where we are allowed to make changes, so we have got to act quickly. Me and Chris (Louis) have spent the last week constantly on the phone talking about it and there are plans in place for whatever eventuality.”https://ipswichwitches.co/raceday-preview-kings-lynn-premiership-a-2/ The “plans in place” are the two riders mentioned, I’m confident of that. Let’s see what happens over the next few days. We’ll know by Friday I’d imagine if we’re on plan A or on to plan B.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe one of his 3 other teams season is over as they ain't reached the play offs so he's now available to ride over here for the final couple of months.

Bash 496 Posted August 2, 2022 If it is Tungate I hope he comes in with the right attitude and doesn't disrupt the team spirit Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tellboy 3,662 Posted August 2, 2022 Do Ipswich have to make the changes together and not separately.They have already made a change and afaik you are only allowed to make changes on two separate occasions.Although you could have a facility for Riss until he is fit to come back,if he does.

The reg re 2 changes is within the transfer window The switch of Heeps was before the window so not relevant The double change is required to make the numbers fit as both are not like for like Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cowboy cookie returns? 747 Posted August 2, 2022 11 minutes ago, tellboy said: So the Heeps swap was not within the rules then as discussed earlier in the season Edit: forgot about in the best interest and all that blah,blah,blah It's a typical grey speedway rule. States the % of premiership matches that are completed before changes can be made but makes no reference to if window closes before the season starts or after the league cup group meetings have been completed. Bend the rule to fit your own agenda, like Belle Vue with Zager! Although you could argue Lynn have done the same with Iversen sign a rider and keep him even when you know you can't use him because of the regulations, then when you can't sign anyone else have a facility granted. Welcome to speedway you couldn't make it up! 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The regulations are as full of holes as a string vest. Application/enforcement is equally as flawed! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
