Never been much of a problem with Ipswich track prep for a long time … it’s just not a good size and shape for great racing This season the prep is awful we know Belle vues track is the best for racing stop banging that drum as for many years you had Kirky Lane which was horrific

Maybe but I think it’s sour grapes from our manager We was 6 points up after 11 heats and if kemp hadn’t have fallen in heat 11 Leicester could not have used a tac sub in heat 12 Is Hurry seriously blaming Dickson when after 11 heats we was 6 clear!???

Nothing wrong with R/R for any rider it’s a rule that works and always has just unfortunate that tonight every team was riding

Expected result really Doyle showing again that he gives 110% in every meeting even if it is just before a GP…. No single figure score from him and did heat 15 with the match on the line

Don’t agree with Hurry here The track was horrific early on and then was like riding on concrete

If only I was a betting man! What let us down tonight was gating in the later stages … Leicester out gated us in almost the last 6 heats and fair play to them R/R didn’t cost us but 2 from MPT did Brennan looks so poor at the moment .. lifts out of every start and didn’t look like getting close Only my second visit this season but I’m in no rush to hurry back ….. the track was awful if you made the gate that was it ….. Musielek busted a gut in the later heats but no dirt to go around and nothing on the inside…. our track has never been good … but this was awful I’m sure the man on the mic is a nice guy but monotone presentation is not the way forward … he tried a witches war cry that was so flat ….. Kevin Long is an impossible act to follow but this guy is miles off it Im not bothered we lost I like Leicester and the manager is by some way the best in the league but I’m not paying £25 plus £30 in fuel to be bored each week On another note hope Nick Morris is ok he was being violently sick throughout the meeting before being withdrawn … no fast one being pulled there I can assure you

Add up the 3 averages it doesn’t leave much for the other 2 alongside Doyle … who would you have had

Best opportunity for Leicester to win at Foxhall and will be surprised if they dont 2 of our best riders at home missing this evening can only see an away win by 6 I would be confident of winning still if it was belle vue tonight but Leicester have too many riders like Douglas, Dan T and Masters that go well at Foxhall will be tough for Ipswich

Should be comfortable for Belle Vue to win here Across the sides Northampton are only stronger at 2 and 7 and maybe 4….. Belle Vue by 8

Not really a fan of Tungate but Rew definitely

Never been a fan of Lawson … he isn’t well liked amongst the riders Ive heard as well and rubs promotions up the wrong way … im not one of these plastic fans who once a rider signs for you that you have to like … sure I want him to win races for us but I struggle to cheer him just something about his demeanour I’m not a fan of

Let’s be fair the Belle Vue fans on here are generally a good bunch who can give it and take it Apart from one who constantly puts Belle Vue above any other side for everything All a bit weird if you ask me

Good to see Shovlar showing us the video of Rushen kicking out …. He made as much contact with Jye as Jye did when he ‘assaulted’ Rushen ….the way Poole fans are speaking (ban for Jye….. assaulting a minor) really does show a lack of understanding totally

I think Berwick should be kicked out of the competition for what Etheridge did In the first running he had another rider kick out at him In the second running he was taken wide and fell 50/50 incident But for Jye to get up and throw 7 or 8 punches at another rider was disgraceful…. Does he not know the other rider is only young?? How dare Jye be infuriated to this level If only Jye had walked over to Rushen and just slapped his shoulder then every speedway fan could have understood his frustration and nothing more would have been said ….. even Rushen would probably have laughed it off But what Jye did was nothing more than assault and really takes the shine off of the win …..

He didn’t try and punch him he slapped his shoulder …. Words straight from Rushen no less … the boy took it well Poole fans going way over the top as usual

You can see what a strange fanbase have on social media … calling for Etheridge to be banned for the season lol…. Even Rushen laughed it off as a slap on the shoulder … Poole fans think Jye is Tyson Fury… as the poster above said they are a strange breed

Go back to the Poole v Berwick thread and I say it like it is that our track is awful Pooles is as well just none of you can admit it

Yes r/r got you pretty much what Cook would have scored having got 3,3 and 1 and a surprising 7 as well so 2 is roughly what he would have got Still not sure how we won the meeting with the weakest 1-7 we have had in years …. Last season Emil Doyle Ellis and Dan T replaced this season with Lawson Musielek Nicholls and PHB all vastly inferior to the riders they replaced and still Belle Vue can’t win Kurtz as expected scored heavily … might have been different if he had a big meeting at the weekend but we can’t be that lucky every time We can’t possibly beat Belle Vue over 2 legs they are so good at home where riders like Blodorn and Tate and Kildemand don’t have to really worry about a skill set just got to open the throttle and go for it …Kurtz and Harris do have the skill set to ride anywhere because they are class riders .. we need to hope they get Sheffield in the semis lol Bonus point doesn’t matter really we will still be 4th as even though we are weak we still better than Lynn or Northampton Maybe next season if we take out Tobi and King and have a couple of weaker riders than Belle Vue can win at Foxhall who knows

I don’t think anyone can call Kurtz or Harris throttle jockeys lol Harris loves the dirt but doesn’t do well at Foxhall usually And Kurtz can ride Foxhall he has scored double figures a few times and I expect him to tonight with ease with not GP on the line at the weekend

All depends on which Kurtz and which Harris turns up Blodorn been doing better this season so might do better tonight No Doyle so going 42–48

Poole fans literally go into hiding when they don’t get the expected result on here Good to see a strong referee as well

I agree Just that for some reason he can’t accept you are generally poor at Foxhall same as we are at the NSS…. Will always be the odd anomaly but that’s the sport I will be shocked if yuh don’t beat us Thursday

That’s a great result for Berwick did not see that coming Rushen great talent that he is is starting to show signs of a bit if petulance but he’s only young but might need a steady influence …. Definitely over rode tonight something Brennan is sometimes guilty of at Ipswich match finely balanced now

Why no Jenkins in heat 14? surely it’s flint and Morris in heat 15?

Young Rushen getting all riled up for no reason ..: needs one of the calmer heads to get hold of him
