I Don't know much,i certainly can confirm Buster has NOTHING to do with the takeover at Foxhall....100%

We as loyal fans (1981 was my 1st visit) all have opinions on what's gone on or going on at Ipswich, i enter my 44th season, give or take a couple i took a break from, and i totally back @Aries in everything he has said. We can all say about what if we were in a position on losing money, that situation i can't argue with, you would consider selling it, that's obvious, but the Radio Silence for all of us fans for me is simply poor, irrelevant at what he has done for the club as a rider and a promoter through the years, just be honest with the loyal supporters who has backed him and his family for years. His silence is painful for so many. As a very loyal Ipswich fan, i now can see all the frustrations that Wolves,Peterborough,Swindon,Lakeside and many more, to many to name, supporters feel at all the uncertainty surrounding their clubs. Now it's our turn, and i hold my hand up it's painful. There maybe 2 bidders on the table, there maybe more, but until Louis lowers his asking price, it's simply not going to sell. Yes its controversial, and yes there are Witches fans rolling their eyes at my post, but I've spent many evenings travelling the country Home and Away supporting Ipswich for years, and in my own honest opinion, my loyalty towards Chris and the situation is wearing thin. Not saying loads agree with me, just giving an honest opinion. Clubs already naming riders (That's the 4 teams that remain), but as we sit here this evening, there is NO guarantee Ipswich come to tapes, irrelevant of the Fine @PhilTheAce is talking about, that simply won't happen, as we all know rules and regulations in this sport are not worth the paper they are written on. I would say we are closer to NOT running than people think, unless as i read on here earlier today Chris is calling people's bluff and he remains in charge, but for me if he does that, he will have a lot of rebuilding to do with the Supporters. I hope i'm 100% wrong, and we race, but im nowhere near as confident as some. Many Apologies for the long post. Tomorrow is another day???

I also wouldn't count Bewley at Belle Vue Phil...Let's wait and see, that certainly isnt a given whoever you have spoken to today, unless of course it's Dan himself, but i know that isnt true
-
Not sure On Bewley being at Belle Vue, but don't think your far out with the other 6. But what a dreadful few months for all of us supporters following the Sport we love, always the last to know anything, but they soon want our money when the season starts. But who knows what Teams will be put together, some will be pleased it's running with 5 Teams, but for me it's a watered down league, that has shambles written all over it.
-
So looks like it's true...No Fricke at Leicester next season.....Those calling Dougy at 1 are spot on. Question is will Fricke return to the UK and if he does who can afford him or even more to the point, who can fit him in with his average.
-
Correct BluPanther, it won't be 36, sadly silly season is upon us, but the 36 limit is certainly not happening. When it comes to the Witches, i would imagine, Doyle,Brennan and Rew will be in there somewhere, not sure what Danny will do, i would also imagine there is a chance of Jordan Jenkins at 6 with Edwards as the R/S and Dan T could find himself at the NSS. That's not me starting any rumour, that's what i think could happen.
-
This is the 1 team that i can't wait to see....If rumours are true(And they are normally not this time of the year) there won't be no Bewley at Belle Vue next season. Ben Cook i'm sure will return, but can,t wait to see who Belle Vue announce as their 7.
-
Ipswich fan here, and i definitely wouldn't want to see Sheffield Shut down, or any other track for that matter. Had many a good night at Sheffield watching the Witches(Not going tonight though, as it is sadly a pointless fixture), i agree with Phil the Ace though, someone will come in and take it on, and it would not surprise me it's Mr Tolley.

Congrats to Leicester on winning the KO Cup, and the double for you Leicester fans is certainly on. On the meeting itself, didn't really think Lynn had much of a shout after Monday's draw, but as they proved at Foxhall a couple of weeks ago, Klindt at reserve can rack up the points, so anything was still possible. On Heat 6, we all see it differently, but after seeing Kerr's pass quite rightly allowed against Dan Thompson at Foxhall (Just Hard Racing)i feel it was the correct decision to exclude Klindt, but again just my opinion, and it had no effect on the overall result whatsoever. But i must admit, even though Lewi Kerr wasn't great on Monday, to leave him out for an old and still injured Scott Nicholls was mind numbing, Scott hasn't even had 1 ride at this level in 12 Months and Lynn throw him in for a Final. Bad choice for me, but again, Kerr might not of made much improvement on the score. Lynn were superb at Foxhall in 2nd Leg, and it's all If's and But's, but if Iversen was riding that night, i'm not so sure Lynn would of got through, especially going on Monday and Thursday's scores, but they did and they totally deserved to go through. Now it's time for teams to complete their League Campaign's and see what the Play Offs Bring, top 4 has been welded in since the 1st week of the season, let's see how the Semi Final's pan out and hope the season finishes on a high with 6 cracking meetings. Then of course, for another day, where will UK Speedway be this time next year with what teams race and in what league. Congrats again to those Lions Riders and Supporters.....

King's Lynn Stars 2025
siggysigalos replied to Bald Bloke's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Just Saying.....I would be very surprised if you see Ben Cook riding at King's Lynn anymore this season....Just something I heard in my Hotel in Manchester yesterday evening, and the source seriously couldn't be more reliable.....But its Speedway in the UK..So who knows -
Doyley riding at Manchester i hear (Weather Permitting). Let's hope he's fit and comes through unscathed. If he does, i would assume he will be at Lynn on Monday Night.

Great shout from you, i'm going tonight and i agree it is good for the sport that Kings Lynn fans are in great spirits and so they should be, they deserve to watch a good side after years of loyalty and watching dross and of course being mugged off by riders, but i agree, this sin't as such a done deal as most predict, Yes i witnessed an actual drubbing for those Belle Vue boys last Thursday, and i also watched Lynn beat a very ordinary Oxford side last Monday(they will come 7th) and although Harris should score big again at 6 (only for 3 more weeks)there were riders last Monday for me that weren't so sharp, Cook and Klindt the main 2, same could be said about Belle Vue, i get that, but they surely won't be as bad again tonight, i expect the Stars to win, but i'm hoping for a close meeting
