Fully understand and accept your opinion Aries.  like many others I’ve followed the club for 40 years and I feel like there has been a death in the family with the thought of no Ipswich speedway.   during my life of ups and downs it’s always been my escape and enjoyment.   like I said earlier I don’t know the full story and I imagine it will never fully be told. I don’t know if that’s a good or a bad thing tbh.  fingers crossed we have some good news very soon and we can return to normal and follow the witches. 

How can he reassure the supporters? For whatever reason something radical changed between the end of October & mid November that meant that he didn’t that he could or wanted to run Ipswich anymore. The statement put out when he announced it was going up for sale was clear enough. He isn’t running Ipswich in 2026 if a buyer can be found then it will carry on. He can’t guarantee he’ll find a buyer & as Louis isn’t going to run it in 26 no chance of being able to provide guarantees. Unlike the other promoters Louis doesn’t have other businesses that he can offset loses against.    Louis seems to have put his family & financial security above running Ipswich speedway in a climate that could see him sustain losses that he can’t afford.    Because of that he has my support because no one else on here would take a major gamble like that with no other income stream.    

My point is that you can't accept the reality that Cami Brown was the manager when Tigers won the Playoffs in 2023. You have this weird obsession for blaming him for everything that goes wrong, and crediting anyone else for things that go right for the Tigers. Then you claim everyone else is obsessed by him. 

what things can be set in motion in 2027. with the 2 league's and teams we have now, that will be different to 26. ?

Not making anything up. Sheffield had interest but no offers were forthcoming. They have now decided to seek other investment which appears to have been forthcoming. In Ipswich’s case it’s not about investment, Louis had all that he needed. For whatever reason he has decided speedway is no longer for him & therefore isn’t going to risk his future on it anymore.  

Personally I think Smith is an excellent signing and further strengthens Berwick’s grip on the treble next season. Lets hope they all stay fit all season so theres no excuses.
