  1. And whether myself and three others buy season tickets for ippo or peterboro.
  2. maybe its not too late for CL to call lakeside and chat with cookie before Ellis gets another ride, with Ben Morley on the reserve list ( who was better than Ellis at home) maybe a deal can be worked out where Adam doesn't miss too many meetings. Unless there's more to it that we don't know about ?
  3. At the moment it doesn't look like Ellis has a team place anywhere. His average is too high to ride NL ( IMHO a backward step) This kid represented GB in the U21's last year and at the moment only has FTR income next season. If the top boys can't make it pay, how are young Brits supposed to advance in the sport when they're in this kind of position. When it came to the business end of the season last year he stepped up to the plate and would have been one of my nailed on choices for this years team. If he gives up and is lost to the sport it would be a shame.
  4. I thought he was a talent from the first time i saw him, we all seem to agree on that, just need to convince the guy who chooses the team !
  5. I've heard that up until 10-30 this morning, he thought he was staying too !
  6. Perhaps you're not the only team awaiting the outcome of the draft ?
  7. Have watched TA many times over the years the last time I saw him was two seasons ago at the IOW. He was having his are regularly handed to him by 17/17/18 year olds. To all those who say he passes on invaluable knowledge to youngsters ... He stayed on his own and buggered off ASAP. Sad to see but even then he was past it Never mind eh. An old boys ego trip can stop a youngster getting a place
  8. When are the heathens gonna step up and play with the big boys ? all this "we're champs again" is great in the NL, but it's like having the biggest willy in the nursery....... it's all very well but in the grand scheme of things it doesn't count for much
  9. you don't need to be an Aussie to realise that, he /she does score very high on the cock-o-meter
  10. If he's looking for a 3 pointer, which reserve is out on there ear ?
  11. No "superstars" thinking they're gods gift to speedway. except Cookie maybe
  12. I thought it was just me who reckoned the Gino love is over exaggerated, too inconsistent for my liking.
  13. Can't wait to visit this, it sounds great. Good luck to all involved.
  14. i live in the middle of Kings Lynn, Mildenhall and Ipswich and try to get to as many meetings as possible. Looking at the EADT just before the playoffs there was an interview that featured Gino and I think Morten. One of them suggested that recently the pressure had been getting to "the younger members" of the team. Nice to see that both Heeps and Ellis were at the forefront of Ipswich's efforts when the real pressure was on. ( unlike some others) hopefully CL will bear this in mind when chasing riders for 2015
  15. there's only one place young Holder will be going and it'll be waaaay down south
  16. Unfortunately, due to family connections, Morten is always the first name on the team sheet.
  17. Funny how Manzares brilliant form has suddenly dropped off with lots of "bike problems" even with new engines from sponsors... not a bit of average manipulation for next season by any chance ? Seems that young Ellis is the only one not to buckle under pressure tonight
  18. I'm getting a bit fed up with master greaves. Golden child or not he should stay in the NL for another few years and learn to control his temper and stay on the bike. Today Nigel Pearson has penned a page offering his full support without commenting on this incident. It reminds me of Middlo/Darcy. The boy needs a talking to not everyone blowing smoke up his backside
