Only person that's sad is yourself Iain but you can't help that.

Nothing sadder than creating a number of Email Addresses in order to have multiple accounts on the British Speedway Forum, Equivalent of creating half a dozen Facebook accounts under different names.

Posting AI generated images gives away another burner account, Who funny enough is also another new member on here that posts in identical fashion who also thinks it's a comedian.

But my names not Iain though?

You've gone completely mad... but at least you're spelling my name correctly and for that I truly thank you 👍

Lawson has been kicked from his Polish club, Kraków for poor performance. Although Lawson tried to get the news out first on his social media page that he chose to leave the club, but, in fact, it was actually the club who have let him go… according the Krakow President.

I get the impression Lawson wasn’t overly committed in racing in Poland or anywhere else abroad come to that. Maybe I’m wrong, but that’s the impression I get. 
 

Premiership and Championship over here probably does him nicely.

A good rider but has attitude problems at times. Very stubborn 

When you're not being paid it must be hard to be positive and motivated (especially if you're not not known for a jolly demeanour )

Unless Mayfield have an ace up their sleeve, I am guessing that Ipswich will continue with Lawson.  Hopefully they can find a way to get the best out of him for the cup final... 

Any news on King's return from injury?

Until this period of 'absence' Lawson was doing exactly as expected a reliable scorer with only three lasts in over 40 rides

100% - nothing wrong with his on track contribution

Maybe we can replace Lawson with a GP star once the cup final is over

How bonkers is that, the season has only just started, middle of July, yet there's only 5 home meetings left.

Genuine questions:

Every club fan up and down the country, do you have any drive left to bother attending in 2027??

If you have, why??

For me personally, it purely depends on whether the team is worth watching, rather than how many meetings there are. I brought a season ticket again this year because I felt it was right to support the new owner, despite not being particularly enthused with the team put together (and yes I know they done what they could in difficult circumstances).

Despite having that season ticket, I’ve still missed a couple of meetings because I couldn’t be bothered to trek across town to watch a team that doesn’t particularly excite me. All the negative noise on here doesn’t bother me with people slamming British Speedway on a daily basis with one thing or another, it’s simply whether the team I’m watching is worth the effort to get up there and watch.

I’ll wait to see the line up Coleman and co put together for ‘27 before I make any decision on whether I’ll regularly attend or not regardless of how many fixtures there’ll be.

Well done once again, Richard Coleman. 
 

19 quid instead of 25 quid full price, will hopefully tempt SOME of those who have been tempted to stay away and watch the stream at 15 quid a pop, to attend and watch it live for only 4 quid more.

All about the 1-7 for me.

This year I've cut down because it's been a very tough watch and a drastic drop off from the 2025 Season.

Haven't walk away completely because I'm trying my best to see this bad patch through, I've only attended 5 Meetings so far and I'm going to attend both Legs of the KOCUP Final as well but that'll be it for this year.

Next year's 1-7 will determine whether I go at all tbh. It's not the costs involved to attend that's an issue for me, I'm more than happy to pay the prices but I also need to see a competitive team in the process otherwise it's a tough watch to see the same fixtures on several occasions with a 1-7 that's just making up the numbers.

If TTT leaves there will only be about eight of us rattling around in here.

@TTT is worth 8 of us though... I'm going to miss his posts on every clubs thread with his mock 1-7's 😉😂

My last reply to your burner account IainB as I have a life outside of this forum unlike yourself.

I'm mindful of the fact that you're clearly not a mentally well person so I'm going to be polite in my final reply.

I hope that you can seek the specialist help that you need in order to overcome your mental illness because it's clearly got a strong hold over your day-to-day life.

Kind regards

TTT
