Ipswich v Belle Vue 14/08

[Odds On]

Ipswich look a strong team, biggest worry for opposing teams right now is that they are winning, thats without Doyle and Emil being in dominant form.

 Can only see Sheffield beating them in the play offs but my money would be on Ipswich, of course there's a huge list of ifs buts and maybe's still.

Genuine question So what are Ipswich promotion doing that belle vue are not? 

Ipswich is certainly more of a community club. They get decent coverage on both local radio stations, Louis or Hawkins are normally on there at least once a week, also BBC Suffolk usually have a recap on the speedway during half time on their live ITFC match commentary.

Louis has also done well in not only keeping the locally based sponsors but attracting new ones this season. 
 

I think it also helps that Louis is local so understands the town & the Louis name is still well known. As a local lad Ipswich legend & his main income the guy is passionate eats & breaths speedway.

Above all he is very approachable.

If only we had more like him.

I think when you consider he knows a lot of the Grand Prix riders and tracks a lot he can see the good and bad of speedway and what not to do, he used to ride in Poland so understands their model, and he also runs the club very well… I haven’t really heard of many if any riders moaning about the club and how it’s run, it’s much the other way round and people really want to ride for the club and to be chosen. I think the fact the crowd is always good and probably the best attended in Britain it brings riders too. Ipswich has always been a town passionate for football and speedway and backs them very good… like Louis said, when the football team prospers so does the speedway.

Come back when you have actually won the league otherwise you are going to look rather silly 😜 

Your lack of comprehension and failure to grasp context is hilariously sad.

But BV are not pulling the crowds at home, why not ?

GP, deffo affected the crowd this year. most speedway fans dont have a pot to piss in so when it comes to paying £150 at start of season alot would have had to give up league racing, cowds have improved after the GP.

 

Was a fairly big crowd last night which was good to see, but it wasnt 3k, no chance, more 2k, maybe slightly more 

 

Belle vues last 2 meetings have drawn in big crowds and one of them was a TV meeting suprisingly

regarding last night, was not a unsurprising result, blodorn rode better than his points suggested, can see hes struggling with confidence right now. zach struggled away again and ill let tate off cos that was a big off he had

 

we might look poor away and i think ipswich will be favs to make the final over us but i cant get that little devil on my shoulder off me that says this happens every year and yet me manage to pull it off as underdogs.

 

our worry is the play offs come to soon really because brady will rightfully be all in on the GPs
