Ipswich vs Sheffield Thursday 12th June

The comment on Live Updates said that he was being looked at by the medics ... posted in the Poole/Redcar thread that it was a groin injury, he's been signed off, and is not riding for Sheffield tonight ... -
On the Discovery+ app I didn't get any ads!

Please don't use that tired old "put their lives on the line for our entertainment" trope. They do it because i) they enjoy it, b) they're good at it, and 3) most make a living from it. The point I was making is that they don't have to pay to watch what they are producing, supposedly in the name of entertainment - if entertainment was their primary concern, the racing should be better.

They don't pay or tune in to watch it ...

Twin Brennan 😊

They're facing the best direction too 🤪
-
Although, if they're interested enough after watching it, and look for other scores, they'll wonder why Brennan rides for Ipswich against Sheffield on Thursday night ...

Plenty on Facebook pages - most fans at most tracks don't know this forum exists - plenty still don't even know about Live Updates, even though it's been going for 20 years!

Basically a different circuit from the stupidly narrow, long straight track that was first built. You can see why Belle Vue fans are so much happier, given that Leicester originally had a lot of space and a blank canvas, but got it hopelessly wrong.

I'm not fishing, I'm stating fact. KL fans have been fishing by claiming an early call-off by Ipswich was somehow tactical. They have ignored the fact (or forgotten?) that Chapman did it 4 times last season.

Not at Foxhall it isn't! We've had more rain in the last hour, and it's dull and overcast at 19:06, with showers predicted ... Did you know that in 2024, Chapman postponed meetings at the Adrian Flux Arena (aka Compost Corner) the day before because of the weather forecast on FOUR different occasions? Hmmm ...
-
It was called early because the forecast was for poor weather, and the forecast was correct.
-
It's all about stirring up a bit of the rivalry. Some people take everything far too seriously. Ipswich fans definitely don't take Hawkins seriously! If you take a step back, I think most will agree that Louis and Chapman have been very positive for their commitment to keeping their respective team going in increasingly tougher circumstances.
-
Raining quite hard just a mile or so east of the stadium at 13:30, and the radar shows it will be like that for the next hour. All the longer range forecasts have proved correct. Irrespective of the rivalry and "banter" about call-offs, this is definitely looking like a good decision.
