cowboy cookie returns?

It does seem strange why Kemp wasn't brought in, an Ipswich asset who made his club debut at 16 and was seen as the next big thing. Seemed to have been highly regarded by Louis but something has changed. Maybe it's an attitude thing, maybe Kemp doesn't want to be at Ipswich at this stage or maybe Poland is the place he wants to concentrate on, who knows. Is it practice day today?

When is press and practice day?

Bassoracingfan seems to think it's Freddie but he has also said it Emil & Artum. I wouldn't take much notice of him.

Hats of to Louis for making the Emil deal happen, certainly no lack of ambition from Ipswich this year. In Emil & Rew probably the two standout signs of the winter.

Tomorrows announcement bound to be the other rider & not the 2nd heat leader. I have thought the major signing will be held over to next week & if it's Emil they wouldn't announce a Russian on the anniversary or the Russian invasion surely?

If it falls though them they could go for his relation Kristopher Holfutdinov

Is it still possible to hold speedway at this famous venue?

This is getting as bad as the masked singer....... and some of the guessing is just as bonkers

This is the frustrating thing with Ipswich, they have for years had the best crowds but the Louis' always play safe & won't do anything that could destabilise the club financially, working well within their means. I remember figures of 6500-7000 being quoted for good Friday afternoon meetings in the early mid 90s. Currently Ipswich also show what can be done a very professional out look with a good handle on social media with a sponsor who is passionate, shame some of that can't run of on UK speedway in general.

That's the sport in general & always has been sadly

Imagine if we could get Chris Holder on a British licence with a reduction due to the number of seasons he has been out & a further reduction for being British, that would make Basso Racing Fans day

The same as the Ukrainians living in Peterborough when you had him nailed on in the Peterborough 1-7 so I suspect you know the answer

Those voices in you head are back, which is the loudest? Holder to Ipswich, Lindgren to Peterborough?

Poor old Bassoracingfan hears all sorts of voices in his head, if you look at the Peterborough page, Lindgren, Andersen & Cook are coming to fill 2 spaces

Well as Tru Plant is no where to be seen I can't see Holder at Ipswich.

Trying to find a lower scoring number 1 than Iversen or pedersen

But you have said he is not fast enough now. That makes no sense?

So why would be ok at home?

Really every Peterborough fan on here seems to think Andersen can't ride big tracks anymore

I'm just glad Buster didn't get his hands on Ipswich. Having said that if buster is still the owner he has every right to run the business as he sees fit.

As an outsider looking in the questions around the ownership of Peterborough seem Pretty simple to answer. The club has a year left at the showground. Although it appears that another site has been found the costs with obtaining the land & building the stadium seem to be an issue at the moment. Buster is trying to sell a club that currently could have no future in 9 months time. Any offer made is likely to be well below what Buster wants for it. Tomlin wants to buy the club but because of the question mark around what happens after October isn't willing to meet Busters valuation. Buster won't sell, expects to lose money at Peterborough but can use that to offset tax elsewhere. This probably gives buster better value right now than selling for what Tomlin wants to pay for it. Currently Peterborough speedway isn't worth a great deal as the future beyond this season is far from certain.

You might get more than the one man & his dog that showed up at Swindon.

Either would certainly be the most interesting signing Ipswich have made since Gollob in 98

Be quite a mess I'd imagine, tissues at the ready!
