You don’t like follow the leader races? When Dan T beat Kurtz was that not a good race to watch? When Doyle cleverly kept Kurtz behind him was that not a good race either? Or do they only become good races if Kurtz would have got through? Heat 14 was a case in point with Zach getting through on the last corner … wasn’t a good race until the last corner but need you will be saying it was a better race than the superheat…. You don’t always need overtaking to make a good race

This will sound daft after last night but a superheat the vast majority of the time will favour the home team thus making the away teams riders get nothing for their efforts all night Especially worse on an aggregate score … for example Ipswich could beat Belle Vue by 20 in the home leg…. Then lose by 20 in the away leg yet the ‘superheat’ is held only at one track where the second leg is and huge home advantage … this is not a pop at Belle Vue because the first leg could be at Belle Vue and then Ipswich get a superheat at Foxhall where Doyle and Emil are clear favourites in the second leg 90-90 over 30 heats and yet one race decides on who goes to the final at the HOME teams track feels wrong I don’t know the answer … you could say race wins but that would stop team riding Maybe match races by this I mean 7 more heats 1v1 against your opposing number and one team would get 4 wins I don’t know I read what I wrote and that seems silly a bit lol Anyone think of any ideas

As an Ipswich fan I want us to win absolutely The superheat last night was a good race and whatever team you support it was a masterclass from Doyle However with a speedway head on …. Neither team deserved to lose … a draw is fine

It’s a silly concept … Ipswich deserved a draw last night and so did Belle Vue for battling back

I hate the superheat The reason a meeting is a draw is because that’s the right result we don’t need another heat to determine that

I might not agree with all Belle Vue fans on here….. but they are very vocal and loud at all meetings It’s just the usual Shovlar crap

Love watching Bewley fly around the NSS but surely somewhere in the Belle Vue camp there was a mix up or lack of information After heat 15 Bewley clearly thought the meeting was over … was he not aware of the score? Then in the superheat Bewley just cleared off … not once did he look back to see if Kurtz was there …. He could have slowed up and even if Emil got past he could have helped Kurtz with Doyle … was he unaware of the scoring system? Also think Belle Vue got the gates wrong in heat 15… Kurtz wasn’t gating that well and to put him off gate 3 which was the worst gate was a mistake I think

I agree Doyle isn’t what he was but what a rider he has been for us at Ipswich and he has given everything to British speedway as well …. Other fans might not like him but he has rode over here every season and never given anything less than 110% And chances are if he hadn’t have been injured and missed GP’s and rode injured he would probably be in about 8th place in the GP right now so that’s not to be sniffed at He just doesnt have the speed at the moment on big fast tracks

Dan T proved by beating Kurtz that if you go wide and keep your speed it’s difficult to pass Your track is the best in the Uk and the odd race last night showed that namely heat 13 Ultimately your team at the bottom is too weak ….. Zach Cook was flying at home but when he comes to Foxhall he struggles as do the bottom 3. I still think Kurtz is an issue for you guys he wasn’t himself last night maybe he is holding back a bit and you can’t blame him Kurtz from earlier in the season would have passed Dan T and Doyle I think Having said that Doyle knew exactly where to put his bike in the super heat …

Brennan went in too hard and missed the corner and scrubbed off his speed and didn’t ride the bend well The outside line was clearly the place to be … Bewley and Emil proved that they rode about an inch from the fence

But if Lidsey rode it’s unlikely you would have used Kurtz in heat 7 and get 3 points …. Lidsey would have scored in heats 3 and 5 no doubt so although Ipswich would have been ahead you probably couldn’t have used a tac sub in heat 7

I know you are Ipswich lol… when I was referring to had no Lidsey I was talking about Lemon meaning you had no Lidsey but your top boys rode 6 times Brennan and Ellis maybe but Danny King has been fantastic all season

I’d have took 8 from Tom before meeting Ellis I felt a bit sorry for …. Decent first race then came up against Bewley and Kurtz … should have beaten Blodorn in heat 10 I agree but was leading heat 14 when it was stopped … on another night would have had 5 or 6 If you told me King would get 7 plus 1 from 4 I would have been happy but to think he beat Kurtz and lost to Blodorn and Mulford shows his inconsistency Doyle and Ellis low scores didn’t help us and Edwards openly admits he hates the place No work to be done we can lose by 8 at Belle Vue but still beat them at home by more so 45-45 is fantastic result Sour grapes from Lemon… the fact you had no Lidsey meant the top boys had 6 rides …

I also wonder if Kurtz mind is elsewhere and rightly so…. Didn’t look his usual self tonight and didn’t fight like he usually does when behind

I’m an Ipswich fan obviously But to go away at the toughest place in the league and lead the whole way and get a draw , should that be taken away from you in one last race Same for Belle Vue to battle back to her the draw and then to lose on a Mickey Mouse super heat is just wrong … nobody should go away with nothing after a draw

Didn’t miss Lidsey that much when you consider that the top two had 6 rides The bottom 3 of Belle Vue are woeful yet 2 of those caused an upset in heat 8 As I said over 2 legs I fancy Ipswich to beat Belle Vue but next time Belle Vue could win by 20

Big mistake from Lemon changing the gates

Have that!!!! Don’t agree with a superheat the match was a draw

Can’t see Bewley or Kurtz coming last

What a daft comment … the home riders have took time to get dialled in and Kurtz Bewley and Cook have been in every race from heat 9 onwards A draw at Belle Vue is like a win anywhere else and over 2 legs would be more than good enough Belle Vue fans so more than politely clap they go crazy for their team passionate fans so you talk absolute crap

I will take the result for sure We know we clearly have the beating of Belle Vue over 2 legs If Lidsey would have rode and scored 10 then we would have lost by 10 but then Kurtz and Bewley would not have had 6 rides so that evens out If Lidsey would have rode we would have lost by maybe 5 or 6….. would have taken that all day long

8 from 4 tonight is fine Lemon saying Lidsey rides got 5 yet conveniently forgets his gp superstars have had 6 rides each!! Mistake from me putting Doyle off of 4

R/R for Lidsey got 5…… then add in Bewley and Kurtz having 6 rides has covered Lidsey well enough and Zach Cook has been on fire Heat 8 was huge still

We must take 2 and 4 surely … let Doyle or Brennan try and block whoever is gate 1 and Emil go round the outside ….. Gate 3 is awful

Let’s be fair it was a great race but the rest of the meeting although fast fast racing hasn’t been lots of passing …… When you get 4 top riders together at the NSS like a GP then the racing is great
