cowboy cookie returns?

I get he impression that Mayfield want to go their own way with team building & do something different in 27. Bringing Ellis back would probably go against that & with. Month of the season left no really worth it if they are going a completely different route. Makes sense for Northampton Ellis could b in their plans for next year

I think Mayfield will be well aware of what can be achieved with the right team. They will know about the packed Foxhall Heath last year for the play off final.

The Ipswich promotion certainly sees this, the question is can they take the rest in the same direction. I really believe that if Coleman can’t make the changes required then the sport is doomed this is very much last chance saloon.

Brennan has to ride at number one as he is still top of the Ipswich averages nothing to do with team management they are the rules.

Maybe Emil is the GP Pole?

I think King will be too expensive from an average point of view next year.

Any way on to 27 1 2 Rew 3 Brennan 4 New pole using Wroclaw connection 5 Musilak 6 7 Will we see Rew back next year I think we might. Brennan is a no brainer after his struggles this season A young exciting rider using the Wroclaw connection seems to be feasible i would have Musilak back if the averages allow. As for the reserve berths no idea. I guess if Pedersen does well he could be the number 6 As for the number 1 do they go the Doyle route or possibly try & temp Emil back? Or will we see someone new? A lot depends on league structure & points limit but a refresh over the winter is required. Ive only left King out because I think he’ll be expensive on his average after cracking 2026.

Excellent post spot. I think Coleman has ruffled the feathers of the BSPL too.

Not sure I fully agree with you. Louis leaving if his heart wasn’t in it any more was 100% the correct decision. Due things beyond the control of Louis & Coleman the take over took a lot longer to be finalised than in should. My understanding was that everything was agreed between Louis & Coleman before Christmas. That it didn’t happen until March ment recruitment of riders was tough as most already had their calendars sorted. I’m confident for the short term of the club Coleman has kept onboard the existing sponsors that Louis had & has since added some new ones. The sponsors from the Louis era all seem happy & excited about the future enough to keep them onboard. Now where I do agree with you is that Coleman definitely wants to make change & drag the sport into the modern era. It appears that a 5 year timeline has been set for this to happen & it’s possible that at that point Coleman walks away if he can’t take the old guard with him. However if in 5 years he has been unable to make those changes & we still have the same issues as today there won’t be much left to walk away from. The first step of change I think has been laid with Wroclaw coming onboard they wouldn’t get involved unless there was the possibility of light at the end of the tunnel.

I really struggle with all the negativity currently around the club. we had an amazing 3 years with Emil & Jason & bar injuries should have won more & let’s not forget how we threw away the title in 2023. Coleman & co coming in late was always going to provide problems with the team in terms of who was available. I was always prepared to write this year off however we have a cup final & are still in with a shout of the play offs. To win the play offs you need a team that goes well at Belle Vue & not many sides do that. Your going to meet them either in the semi of the final. If Mayfield puts together similar team in 2027 & this time next year we are having similar conversations then they will deserve the criticism. The negative part for me is that in 5 years time of Coleman hasn’t managed to change this both in the uk & at gp level he will walk away form both. However at that point if he hasn’t managed to get change though & we are not seeing uk speedway improving to be honest there won’t be much to walk away from at uk level.

Apparently there is heavy rain forecast over Foxhall Heath…..Buster is arranging it!

You’re probably right. To be honest the more I think about it I could be the club looks at a different route regarding Doyle also. Maybe they’ll head off in another direction altogether, although if they both wanted it I don’t think anyone would say no to a final Jason & Emil fairwell tour.

Personally I’d like to see Emil back over next year.

Brennan is a class act & will continue to have my full support. We already have one eye on 2027 & he’ll be a key part of that

Well got well & truly turned over. Those who thought Jenkins should have replaced Bangs will Have been proven right tonight.

I’m thinking Brennan & Musielak will be the first on the team sheet for 27 & I’d be quite happy with that.

Personally that’s a no from me. Been down that road before & the road of watering the product down & it doesn’t work. The only way to make the sport grow is to do the opposite make it stronger which will take time but ultimately would succeed.

Wouldn’t be a home meeting without Bomber!!

Get ready for Laguta racing fan to appear saying Laguta is Foxhall bound

How many are at the stadium tonight?

I was one of those who thought we should have gone & brought Jason back in. However if you look at the team I’m not sure how that happens. Two changes possibly three to make it work for us to be any better. As many have said this year is a free pass let’s get though it the real test will be this winters team building. Tomorow nights announcement on future plans could also be telling.

They can’t drop Tom to number 3, the highest average rider has to ride at number 1

Maybe it’s something they don’t like Coleman seems not to be interested in the status quo & towing the party line.

If they can convince the owners or buy the stadium & then work with the local authorities Foxhall has massive untapped potential. massive space for gps but more importantly a great area for training & running community projects. It could almost be a mini version of what is done in Poland. Coleman did say we needed to look at what Poland does. However I think it’s a lot of wishful thinking but I’m certain it’s stadium related.
