Totally get your response and you could even through Oasis into the mix when talking about icons and backing your own, I just referenced that on here as I don’t think those football clubs United and City would ever support the speedway like town does the witches. That’s why I put Manchester football is too big probably and doesn’t notice the aces, although I apologise if they have been involved with walking out at the stadiums etc too! (Again, this isn’t a dig at anyone on here for saying we are better) it was just to say well done to all of Ipswich.

Back in the 90s I could name every rider just by looking at a race pic in the speedway star, now I would struggle, as they all look the same.

Its the same here with support for United and City and Ricky Hattons support was off the scale he took a reported 30,00 fans to Las Vegas for his title fights plus both sets of football fans attended his funeral. Obviously Ipswich is smaller than Manchester but the support for sport down there cant be knocked, the town should be proud. Was great to see Fabio win he put in a great performance.

I mean, that's the answer right there... why those in charge fail to see this is quite beyond me 🤷‍♂️ No we're British Speedway and we're going to educate the British public that it is in fact Monday and Thursday nights that they want to go out for entertainment 😂

Is Lidsey swerving the UK next year? If a team could fit him in, he’d be a great little no. 5 in a watered down league …

I think the Aussies can make it up as they go along!  There are certainly some 'easier' states to enable qualification.
