Robinh88 571 Posted February 24, 2023 (edited) On paper a great signing but his success will depend on what machinery he is running. Well done Ipswich - that's a hell of a coup.. Edited February 24, 2023 by Robinh88 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

His machinery will be top notch no danger of that. He certainly won’t be on the track spare! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Notenoughnerve 67 Posted February 24, 2023 A signing that will probably be seen as wrong by the British public in general. The timing of the announcement is beyond stupid and any media attention it does receive, is now almost guaranteed to be bad. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I must be honest I am of the same opinion, the visa is not mentioned in anything I have read about the Ipswich signing. The story makes a big thing about him having Polish Citizenship and having a Polish Passport but the bottom line is he is Russian and has medals to prove it. Interesting.

It was very prescient of Emil to take out a Polish Licence in 2010 and citizenship - clearly he knew all this was going to happen 13 years later!

Similarly as an Englishman I’d like distance myself as far away as humanly possible from the actions of every one of the prime ministers of this country to serve in the same time frame as putin and beyond the thought of it being assumed I’m sympathetic to the likes of bojo just because of where I’m born is stomach turning haha Edited February 24, 2023 by 89buttons 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sully 274 Posted February 24, 2023 Taken from SGP website The deal remains subject to confirmation from British Speedway Promoters Ltd, and he will need a UK visa. But Sayfutdinov is hopeful these obstacles will be overcome as Witches boss Chris Louis works hard to conclude a deal that has been months in the making.Sayfutdinov said: “I think there is a long process to go. I remember Chris calling in November asking about the possibility. We didn’t answer straight away and thought about it for a few days, but then we called Chris to ask how the situation looked and all the problems he could face Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
