Why on earth would Poole keep Ritchings over Starke? Starke has out scored him in every match apart from one … the home match v Plymouth where the only riders Ritchings beat was Plymouth’s reserves … in his other meetings he has only managed 1 or 2 points Surely the Poole management aren’t that silly to let Starke go

King's Lynn v Ipswich KO Cup SF 1st leg 02/06/25
Gavan replied to Bagpuss's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
My point is that Emil is favourite to win every race he is in … he probably won’t win every race but he might If you have King or Ellis at 2 and they struggle then you are turning emils races into 3-3 or if Emil gets beat 2-4 With r/r at 2 you have 4 riders teaming up with Emil so if one is struggling it can be covered with a 3-3 and not a 1-5. Emil in heat 8 should win where as a Brennan or Ellis might not Emil will have 5 programmed rides and think if he gets 4 wins we will get 4 4-2’s and a 3-3 minimum (opinion) stick r/r at 4 then I don’t think we will get the same -
King's Lynn v Ipswich KO Cup SF 1st leg 02/06/25
Gavan replied to Bagpuss's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
That’s why most teams do it then! We are lucky to have basically 2 number one riders so it makes sense to me Emil and King Emil and Brennan Emil and Jenkins Emil and Ellis Much rather that then say r/r at 4 and each rider paired with Brennan Emil should be the best rider on show no guarantee obviously…. So in his 5 rides if we can get 4-2 every time that’s a 10 point margin from a third of the races ….. stick r/r at 3 or and you run the risk of getting more 3-3’s Its personal opinion but I think its the right move -

Gavan replied to Bagpuss's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
R/R can’t be at 1 anymore as Emil highest average This means that every race Emil is in he will be paired with King Ellis or Brennan and also hopefully win heat 8 You aren’t going to have R/R at 5 If you have it at 3 or 4 means could mean you are weakening that position if the other rider isn’t going well I think 2 is the best place to have it -
Lidsey for Doyle is laughable

Ipswich Witches v Leicester Lions - Thursday, 22nd May
Gavan replied to tocha's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Well you do win the award for stupidity I’m talking about this season You beat us when you had Brennan at reserve and Charles Wright in the team and Lidsey at reserve and you can’t count last season when Doyle and Emil were missing and Rew was injured in his first race Brennan and wright go well at Foxhall … Blodorn and Zach Cook don’t The fact is Belle Vue are a weaker side at Foxhall now then in 2023 if you can’t see that then I can’t be bothered to talk to you -
Ipswich Witches v Leicester Lions - Thursday, 22nd May
Gavan replied to tocha's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
As I’ve said before I always feel Leicester are our toughest opponents at Foxhall You would prefer Bewley Kurtz and Lidsey over Fricke Masters and Douglas all day long ….. but at Foxhall the 3 Leicester boys go better then the 3 Belle Vue boys Add in that Blodorn and Zach Cook are generally awful and that Becker and Howarth aren’t … and that Belle Vue reserves are poor generally …. Then you can see why Belle Vue are probably the better 1-7 but at Foxhall we are more likely to beat Belle Vue easily as opposed to Leicester And Leicester absolutely deserved it last night -

Everybody saw that coming unless you have no speedway knowledge I think Sheffield would have lost at King’s Lynn if it was r/r for Holder and Hume for Kerr And to gloat over riders being injured just shows a lack of class Every Ipswich fan congratulated Leicester tonight …. Yet we get weird accusations of us lowering our averages …. Then the Belle Vue idiot and now a Sheffield fan gloating …. Belle Vue who we thrashed twice and Sheffield who we held to 2 points …. I’m sure if we have our full 1-7 back we aren’t exactly worried -

So remind me why we might be deliberately lowering our averages ???? Who would we sack? You are utterly clueless -

The resident prat is back again Leicester was always going to be our toughest home meeting they have riders who can ride our track and not guys like Blodorn Lidsey and Cook who are only used to winding it on which is why your mob are useless at our place Well done Leicester totally deserved on the night -

Yes our riders love to deliberately lose races in front of their own fans Moron -

Better rider than both Hume and Jenkins on a track he knows inside out was always going to do well tonight -

Gavan replied to tocha's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Doyle’s 3 rides so far getting 3 points and Hume in place of Dan T only on 1….. injuries you just can’t legislate for -
I’m unsure of what Poole fans expect of Kerr…. He isn’t a number one yet Poole fans expect double figures …. He will occasionally and occasionally get 6 or 7. The Kings Lynn track was set up for a gater to suit Klindt … evidenced by the lack of passing …. This suits Kerr

Ipswich win comfortably and that’s despite losing 8 points from engine failures and Hume only getting 2 from Dan T position Birmingham apart from Musielek are woeful -

Ipswich with 4 engine failures either 3 of them from leading positions ….. Birmingham are shocking -
At the recent Ipswich v Birmingham match lots of rumours Birmingham had over spent and would not be financially able to last the season It’s well known Rew was asking for the same as Doyle and Birmingham must be paying him that or close to it …. A suicidal business model
