Sorting out the reserves is going to be just as important as the No.1 position in regards to 2027. Think it's fair to say that Kevin Juhl Pedersen rode above his level on his debut guest appearence around Northampton that ultimately pulled the wool over everyone's eyes from the fans to the management.

I’m not sure Leicester would be too happy having to refund a lot of subscribers to their Leicester TV stream for this meeting.    I was one who subscribed, and was emailed after the postponement to be told my subscription to the meeting would roll over to the new date.    Not sure they’d be too happy losing revenue by refunding those subscribers because they couldn’t then stream the meeting due to BSN.    Unless BSN compensated them. 

Ellis WAS spoken to Shano. He said that in his speedway star interview months ago. But the whole uncertainty and waiting game of the protracted takeover made him plan his season elsewhere, same as Doyle.    Dan Thompson was always going back to Leicester, that was done before last season even ended when Louis was here! He had a very good sponsor that took him back to Leicester, he was never staying at any point.    Coleman has publicly thanked both King and Brennan for being patient and waiting on Ipswich to get their house in order. Others didn’t want to do that which is their prerogative.    This isn’t aimed at you Shano and everyone is entitled to have their say of course, but there’s a few Ipswich supporters that have really pi$$ed me off to be honest reading through social media posts (Facebook). Personally, after Ipswich “legend” Chris Louis decided to bugger off at the 11th hour leaving the future of the club in turmoil over the long winter months, I’m thankful that Mayfield stepped in to keep speedway going. They were never in a position to put a title challenging team together despite protestations of some deluded supporters who pretend to know what’s going on behind the scenes.    Some fans are coming across as spoilt, and incredibly ungrateful.    Give them a fuc*ing chance at least and give them the same chance as the others in building a team to compete.  AGAIN, let’s see what they produce in 2027 when they’ve had the opportunity to plan properly. 

Brady wont ride anywhere but belle vue

I think Richard would like fourth place. If Ipswich stage the first leg then the crowd should be better than the normal high attendance and the resulting extra income would be most welcomed.  As is often quoted on here, the play offs are a big money spinner. To not want to be part of that is daft.

Not stropping BB, I'm just a realist. I'm not invested at all about finishing 4th because it means an away trip to our worst away track statistically that'll just result in us getting battered anyway. Lawson and Nicholls simply can't ride the place for toffee and that's our No.1 & 2 pairing, That's 15-3 to Belle Vue before we even move on to the other 12 Heats.
