its because most fans compare the current state of the sport back to a bygone era. alas its gone and will never return.

You get the feeling that any rescue package a major backer comes in on will be conditional on them getting a large share of any future TV deal.

All about logistics isn’t it? Getting riders into and out of cheap airports. Northampton is well served in that regard and has a decent speedway catchment…pboro Coventry

Is Mayfield eyeing Foxhall as a potential venue for the Speedway Grand Prix in future years?

"I can promise that there is no better person to take the Witches forward and I am truly excited for what the future holds.”

I’ve been watching a bit of the Aussie series on BSN and he does look much improved. However, I don’t think he goes well anywhere other than the NSS. I’d prefer to see `Becker and Lawson rather than Lindsey and King

https://ipswichwitches.co/british-speedway-agm-statement-2/ Please find below a press release from British Speedway Promoters Ltd regarding the 2026 season. We hope to provide an official update of our own by the end of the week regarding the sale of the club. We understand supporters have all been waiting for information over the last few weeks and we will bring news as soon as we have it.

Should we expect an announcement on the witches website soon? More in terms of ownership rather than riders

A shake up with some new faces isn’t the worst thing

"There are good people involved with running speedway but there are some that aren't as well," Hawkins added. "Ipswich and Chris Louis have shown what can be achieved and that people do still want to watch speedway, and will back a professional outfit. "There's still potential that the sport can carry on and be great but it needs the right people involved which they're probably not at the moment."

It’s the only way to keep professional speedway in the country

Still no fireworks. No wonder the Poole fans left early

Cue the fireworks…

Thomsens tank slapping appears to have cost the pirates the treble

Can Redcar put this to bed before ht15

Should have canned howarth after 15

Yes I heard that too but seen nothing on their app or elsewhere

Sheffield were the only team that could have beaten a fully / mostly fit witches side infact I would go so far as saying Sheffield might have been favourites over 2 legs given their late season changes

Redcar’s guests are pants and that means the tie will be over in a few heats

That was race was good to be fair

Kerb crawling paying dividends so far
