Who did Ipswich have in mind to share the R/S spot with Foord?

No idea - does I make a difference?

Perhaps whichever of Harrison or Scott is not named for Lyn at the time..... :P

not sure id give ritchie boy that much credit 

No doubt he’d be moaning because Lynn would’ve used the same one he wanted at that time, but we got “special treatment”.

It is all a bit Mickey Mouse, UK Speedway, isn't it? 😁 

Well worth twenty five quid a pop..🤪

You would pay a lot more to see Mickey Mouse at Disneyland so don't complain too much.

Post Covid, Foxhall has been one of our better away circuits so I’m hoping the cup was just a blip. The witches form in the league against us there reads W 5 D 1 L 4 with one of their wins being a last heat decider. I’m interested to see Brady & Dan away in their current stella form, both are gating well and along with our regular gater Jaimon we could do some damage from the tapes. 

In the league, since Norick got his debt out of the way he has scored  (newest to oldest) 7+1, 5+1, 3, 6+2, 5+2, 3+2, 6+3 at Foxhall. I’m afraid I do not see RR covering that. 

I really hope the track changes kick in for this meeting, if you don’t get excitement on the track with Jason, Emil, Brady & Dan then there’s something up. 

Interestingly looking at the stats we could drop one of Brady or Dan and add in Jaimon and we would still have a better spearhead statistically than the witches, he is actually averaging more than Emil when looking at 2025 stats but his magnificent form is greatly overshadowed by our two GP hero’s.

With regards the Ipswich RS saga. 

If a team is allowed to chop & change that position and another team isn’t, that is just wrong. Using your opinion of the people involved to alter this logic is daft. The implementation of rules should be consistent and not subject to how much you like or dislike an individual or team.

Only one stat that matters... and that reads Ipswich Witches top of the league. So we are better than you in the league and in the cup. Also, some of those stats stated above were probably pulled from last year when we never had a full 1-7. Although, I do expect tomorrow night to be a good encounter!

Think he’s the one that needs the backbone, hiding behind his pre-meeting comments to make his point. Why doesn’t he come out to centre (concrete) green on Monday and voice his issues? 

So what if we’re swapping our R/S each meeting? We have been given approval to do so, if Ipswich haven’t that’s not our problem, and as such no need to NameDrop us into the argument.

When the regulations are not implemented even handily it is everyone's problem.....

Richie Hawkins on Vinnie Foord...

I know a lot of you will have seen we wanted to use him on Monday at Oxford and what a massive drama that was. Unfortunately, the SCB said he wasn’t going to be allowed to guest so we wanted to put him in the team and then take him out in the same way King’s Lynn have been doing with their Rising Stars. Then we were told Monday morning that we weren’t allowed to do that, but King’s Lynn still would be which to me is completely wrong and I know Chris feels the same way. This is what we work with, and we will do our very best and I’m sure we will all give him a great welcome on Thursday.

Hawkins talking b*llocks as usual 💩 that wasn’t the case at all, there was more to it than that

The RS situation is blatantly two tier. However, even with that dodgy help it doesn't really matter, Lynn won't be in the playoffs. And of course, they will be dumped out of the cup as well on July 17th...😛

Still going on about injuries, surprised Ipswich fans not predicting defeat in this meeting as they keep going on how unfit the team  is.
