Let’s not forget Witches won the cup just what 2 weeks ago! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Because I was stood maybe 70 yards away from where the majority of the Ipswich supporters were stood and did not see anything, but that is not to say it did not happen. If it did it is wrong and apologise on behalf of Sheffield supporters who can control there emotions and not let the club down with their behaviour. What I won't accept is someone coming on here and labelling all of us in the same boat, we are not and you should not be coming on here and accusing us all been the same. I will bet that you can go to any track in the country and you will find that there will be fans that just cannot behave. 10 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Col 854 Posted October 5, 2023 Congratulations Tigers. Sayfutdinov struggled with conditions early & Doyle wasn't brave enough at the end. Pickering is entertainment. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Agree with your point regarding Harris.Lambert couldn’t care about Speedway in GB.Personally couldn’t care who wins anything over here,the sport is on its knees and being run into the ground.We need to stop kidding ourselves.I fear it’s too late though Edited October 5, 2023 by Fromafar Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DJC 251 Posted October 5, 2023 (edited) Thoroughly enjoyed that on the TV. I’m no Harris fan but Doyle in 13 summed him up, some terrible riding and had that been Nicki P you’d all be up in arms! Josh Pickering, if he could string those great rides together more consistently he will make it, what a performance. King very unlucky with a horrific crash but too long a tail for the witches, who have been fantastic at times this year, one too many. Feel sorry for Louis that they spent so much on Emil and Doyle to just miss out but some terrible loyalty caused their downfall in the end. Riss was pathetic again, didn’t he win the CL there a few years back? wonder who guy Nicholls is with this evening seen as the guest he’s been slagging off essentially win it for one of his teams….although posting picture on social media of him taking delivery of a new rolls Royce, an hour into the meeting, does he care as much as he spouts off about?

Charlieboy 412 Posted October 5, 2023 Brilliant performance from our all star Tigers. Well deserved tonight coming from 18 points down. Track held up well after all the rain we’ve had and an exciting meeting. Lambert and Bomber didn’t score more than the lads they replaced would have done. Last heat decider good for tv. Rather have won it with the original 7 but can’t help injuries and over the season everyone uses guests and benefits. Well done to all the riders for giving their all. Hopefully next season we don’t get all the injuries and we can defend our title with the original 7. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Teromaafan 586 Posted October 5, 2023 Wow. The outcome I predicted……….not! Hats off to the patched up Tigers who made Emil and Doyle look ordinary. Some statement! I’m as guilty as anyone when it comes to giving British Speedway a good kicking with regard to its set up and operation, but tonight’s meeting was right up there with a last over outcome in white ball cricket. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
