Am i the only one that thinks pairing arguably the two worst gaters in the side is a mistake?. they also seemed to be impeding each other while chasing opponents. (Bomber & Heeps)

Thoughts and prayers go out to young Sam Norris and is family.

Actually the reporter was closer than you think. The minutes of Manchester city council are made public so any one can see what is discussed. It isn't all doom and gloom for Bell Vue but isn't rosey either. Personally i hope it all works out and speedway in general can move upwards for a change and the NSS gets the meetings the race track deserves in the future. 7._Belle_Vue_Speedway_Update.pdf

He was on radio Suffolk in the week, cant remember which day though. Didn't say much about situation just the usual happy to be joining Witches blah blah.

Lol i am not sure they are being harsh, they were going to walk away after 2010 but Chris dropping down changed their minds. As i said there are several reasons why they are thinking about walking away and having three clubs owned by the same man really hasn't helped.

I did put should no the team by Christmas. Any how would a statement to the fans be to big of an ask. Lets be honest quite a few of us no who has been signed and the reason why he isn't saying anymore. What worries me is that a lot of loyal fans i have known for many seasons are not only passing on season tickets but are talking about not attending at all. This is for all sorts of reasons but doesn't look good for the club.

Would of been nice to have a statement from Ipswich Speedway today on what is happening with team building. They did say we should no the team before Christmas. Any how i would like to wish speedway fans everywhere a very happy Christmas.

Has anybody on here been up to Foxhall today for a mince pie and a coffee. If so is there any news on riders?.

When was the last time F1 was on the BBC?. Speedway just isn't a sport worth showing anymore.

Rohan doesn't want to be at Ipswich, Chris doesn't want Rohan so we will probably end up with Rohan. If we sign a rider who would only ride for us as a last resort it would be over before a wheel is turned. Pray for a big name ladies and gents we have a good sponsor and as good a crowd as any team. Lets start positive thinking and make it happen

Wells, you have got to be kidding. The last Witches rider he beat at Foxhall was Conner when he scored 4 for Edinburgh. Sorry Taps didnt read your post right maybe as a middle order rider.

All four would be be big signings for us. It would have to be the KK in the right frame of mind though. Zagar is better than KK purely because he is more consistent. I would be happy with any of them to be honest because i am really starting to worry now.

Chris said its the top end he is working on, yikes. Maybe we can get N. Pederson or Emil Sayfutdinov. Probably be KK or Zagar.

They are working on the top end of the team, i am more worried now than i was. Surely you get your big guns signed first. Wonder who the four are? Heeps is one i am guessing.

Cheers for that, i dont pay to much attention until i get Christmas out of the way.

Have Ipswich or Sheffield changed their race night then ? i havn't been paying much attention lately.

I agree the sport would benefit greatly with a few more like Robbo. A good guy on an off the track. Wishing you a happy retirement mate.

Fans are entitled to their opinion about clubs and riders, but if people respond to their opinions they cant cry about it. I am sure there are posters on here who post comments purely to get a reaction then congratulate themselves in front of a mirror

From what I heard tonight that's it for this year, its not 100% more like 99% finished for the season at Foxhall.

Wasn't arguing with anyone just pointing out a fact. Rory is a big hitter for sure, as is Danny.

Rory dropped back below Danny at the start of the month. Lawson guested for Danny last night. Thumbs up to Gavin

At home the Witches are looked after, away its a different story but I am sure the riders and management look out for each other. Baldy is right it is up to individual riders to try and have someone on the spanners at meetings, but it is easier said than done. Gino has got talent but unfortunately without the equipment and more settled support in the pits it is a uphill struggle to compete. It is the same for everyone though. So I am not making excuses for him or anyone else, its a tough sport.

Jonas is fine, he rode in Denmark Friday.

E.K. due back tomorrow I think.
