  1. A great result for Ipswich they have certainly proved the doubters myself included wrong. Playoffs here we come. What's happened to Drew Kemp seems to have gone right off the boil
  2. Speedway a team sport that doesn't have tactics or any true meaning of a team sport just a band of riders who pull on a teams race jacket a couple of times a week before riding for someone else the next night.
  3. John Davis guesting for himself? I'm too young to remember that, how did that happen?
  4. Watching the GP from Cardiff tonight. Shame about the track the most positive thing I took from the meeting on TV was Scott's interview with top gears Chris Harris. He seemed genuinely impressed & the comment perfect blue print for a evening of motor sport at least shows there is something positive.
  5. Klint certainly did us a favour, perhaps he thought he was riding for us. Not really that embarrassed tbh up against a super reserve.
  6. Something King's Lynn don't seem to have when they ride at home
  7. It's either April 1st or you guys should work for the BSPA with crackpot ideas like that!
  8. I can't believe you guys have dropped cook! He was one of those bargain average signings!
  9. If that's the case he should have stayed in the back ground when Peterborough won the title & not prance around on live TV. Outside looking in you have club officials celebrating with more than one club, if that's not bad enough these clubs are supposed to be arch local rivals. Then you have riders appearing for multiple clubs as guests during the season no wonder no one takes it as serious sport.
  10. I take my hat off to Ipswich, they are by far the most professional run club in the UK. On the ball with social media embracing it & using it to their advantage. The website is also one of if not the best out there. If only Louis & Guy could take over UK speedway we might have a chance. A couple of great signings there too, when Riss is fit certainly give Louis & Hawkins a headache.
  11. True but is that point towards the end of the season when any chance of the play offs have gone?
  12. He's attached to Ipswich so it makes perfect speedway sense that he guested for Ipswich tonight!
  13. Oh dear another safety fence problem at Sheffield that the track staff can't fix, not the first time
  14. It's a typical grey speedway rule. States the % of premiership matches that are completed before changes can be made but makes no reference to if window closes before the season starts or after the league cup group meetings have been completed. Bend the rule to fit your own agenda, like Belle Vue with Zager! Although you could argue Lynn have done the same with Iversen sign a rider and keep him even when you know you can't use him because of the regulations, then when you can't sign anyone else have a facility granted. Welcome to speedway you couldn't make it up!
  15. The BSPA had the very large chunk of Dosh, during the early sky years...... sadly no vision. The sport just makes me so cross should be one of the best sports out there.
  16. With proper management, a proper plan for the future & a product that is decent enough to be sold to those outside of speedway maybe the sport could have a future maybe even a bright one. Shouldn't make an comparison's to any other sport but all you need to do is look at the ladies euros to see what can happen with some vision.
  17. It would be much easier if C Harris changed his name to A Guest
  18. Just goes to show the issues around the sport. I was recently reading a post on the Ipswich speedway memories Facebook page. In there was a newspaper cutting & part of the reason for Chris shears being booted out of Foxhall was for breaking the contract where he had to stage a minimum of 30 meetings he managed 28. Today this lot struggle to fit in less than 20.
  19. It the problem when you have a busy fixture list with no free weeks in the height of summer!
