do you think we are stupid??????? we all know if its one league it will be without the GP boys

bewley testamonial due also i think

ill repeat again, while every promotor have an input its 4 people that rubber stamp and decide any rules, structures etc, and they are, CHRIS LOUIS, rob godfrey, Danny Ford, Damien Bates. so he has to take some blame for being in this mess. no one is disputing he ran ipswich well, hes been excellent for you

Dont think bailey is at poole now TBH, i think uk is last on his priority

yes i got the same message about just doing NDL next season, but for us thats just not viable. it wont happen, it will be prem, champ or NOTHING

Well belle Vue shared his vision, kings lynn shared his vision, so let’s not make false accusations now

If Ipswich fans are happy then Fair enough,

If you won’t even contemplate doing championship then why would you just do NDL, doesn’t make sense

Then he needs to come out and say his reasons. Don’t just out of the blue put out a statement and give it no reasons, As I said a few weeks ago on this very thread, I was told Louis was throwing his toys out the pram and threatening to sell the club, and guess what, looks like he has

I’d rather have 10 years of speedway than 1 crowd of 6-7k per season. Hes risking you losing your weekly speedway, closing the club you love for what seems to look like prams being thrown out of the pram. when the going gets tough, the tough get stronger, not quit

no, totally get that and agree with you, of course i want the best here, i want more of them here though, just having 1 or 2 dont really work for me. but im a die hard so ill go watch any speedway so suppose im the wrong guy to discuss this with 😂

we all want to see the best, thats who we enjoy most, but lets not lie to ourselves, do the top boys produce best racing??? in poland yes where the level of competition is much more level. over here 90% of the time, the kurtz, bewleys, doyles, frickes, emils, holders of this world just gate and clear off winning by the length of the straight, theirs only really heats 13 and &15 we look forward to, and then most of the time the tracks aint prepped to produce good racing anyway. championship for me does have better racing due to most of them being on a similar level. was it around 2016/17 when they changed the race format and all the top boys raced each other and the lower team raced each other, racing wise that was a phenomenal season, but obviously messed up riders averages, if they could bring that format again the sport could blossom with a premiership

im wondering if its the consortium trying to start up northampton

heard a rumour months ago that they would be champ with king at 1, but king at plymouth and nothing mentioned about mildenhall since so im guessing mildenhall was interested in a comeback but it has since cooled

Ipswich I assume under new owners, remember Louis said he wouldn’t go champ or if it’s a 5 team league he will step away. no one wants to see a 5 teams league. Would be the worst decision ever. just hope it’s a just a rumour.

5 team premiership im hearing 🙄🙄🙄🙄

I like Louis, but he’s been one of the 4 who’s been making the decisions all these years that’s sadly got us into this position, so he’s got to take some of the blame

It is toys out the pram sadly. I called it weeks ago, this is not a shock. same will happen with belle vue i understand they want a top league and top riders, we all do, but unfortunately it just doesn’t work here, get to one league for 26, try stable the ship and review things for next season. speedways not dying, I don’t believe this because the championship seems to be a mini success, so a year in champ won’t be the end of it. also, could still be 2 leagues. Louis wouldn’t race with 5 teams. All the others would so maybe there will be a 5 team top league with Ipswich included under new owners (guy nicholls or them that wanted to bring back Northampton)

Sad news. Toys out the pram spring to mind. fully expect a similar statement from belle Vue in the not to distant future

dont you start with the 6&7 rubbish on here 😂

he also left after heat 4

Bang on, but regarding a price decrease. Will never happen sadly, look at the admission for champ teams last season, it’s not far off prem really.

It’s hard to gauge any truth right now. It’s very much a closed shop and nothing much is leaking out. And about time to I’d say

louis wont go champ and he wont go with 5 teams. it doesn't sound good for Ipswich running in 2026 but this is why pushing out the AGM to January is the right thing to do, imagine a sport without its champions, be more comical than it is now. just hope the rumours about Leicester and Sheffield being accepted to champ isnt true

Louis been saying this since season ended. Let’s hope he’s all mouth. the consortium being lost is a killer blow. could this mean some clubs won’t come to tapes in 2026. Not just Ipswich
