Kurtz not gone. 

 

Fricke at Lynn. 

 

Holder only rumoured to not ride but I have a feeling he will be Ipswich bound. 

 

Bewley and kurtz at belle vue 

 

So far only emil and Doyle lost. But I wouldn't count out a change of mind from doyle 

Serious question, how many genuine No1's are actually guaranteed to commit to a full UK season, Fricke, Bewley and Kurtz been have been mentioned and possibly Holder, surely you need at least 5 if Sheffield and Ipswich run, or even 6 if this mystery 6th team happens, you really can't have a repeat of what happened this season with Birmingham/Oxford and one or two teams end up weak at No1 and become whipping boys.

If 5 teams i think we will need 4 at least. One team always goes strength in depth where it don't need a no1.

It's helps for sure, but then we had 2 last year...... and the rest is history 🤣

Brum, Oxford and Lynn didn't have a no 1, bottom 3 teams by a long way

 Brum had 2 to start with really. One didn't show up all season and the other left in may 

 

Lynn if they didn't have a bad start would have made play offs and probably won it in the end for me. 

 

And we'll Oxford, less said about them the better

They would find a way to eff it up

Perhaps field an ineligible rider and get disqualified :D

Thats the one... Say what you like about Lynn, but despite the crowds being not the best, and we are generally taken the pis% off, we are going again..

Louis is making a profit, and won't give it a year.... For the sports his family loves,where he might only break even....

Happy Christmas  :P

I see ya laughing BP. So CL wanted one league?. i don't know, please enlighten us lesser mortals. Wouldnt it be worth 1 more year to give maybe Northampton, PB, Cov, Swindon,or another team a chance to step up.. No matter how unlikely?

Yes, CL would definitely have run with one league...

Happy Christmas...:cheers:

Would not his family's 70  history at Ippo, and speedway meant he would give it a year?  Thought the family was speedway through n through.

No, it was one league or a minimum 6 team premiership. Right or wrong, he's made his decision...

No.   Louis was against one league.  He wanted a Premiership with at least 6 teams.

He threatened that he would rather put Ipswich up for sale rather than run in one big league or a 5-team Premiership. 

BV, Leicester, Lynn and Sheffield also wanted a 6-team league, but were happy to go with 5 if necessary.   Louis spat his dummy at 5 teams, and felt he had to go ahead with his threat to sell.

Baffling isn't it?

Five or six teams?

Makes little difference to how the league looks does it?

Small time, and bereft of relevance and resonance,  either way....

A strange, (very small), hill to die on...

Why are you believing anyone on here? You, or anyone else on here haven’t got a clue as to the genuine reasons why Louis has put Ipswich up for sale.

@RoundTheBoards This time last year by the way, was telling everyone on here that Keynan Rew was definitely in the 2025 Ipswich side when the reality was, he’d long since done a lucrative deal with Birmingham!

That’s the problem with this forum. You get an awful lot pretending to be “in the know” when the reality is 99.9% don’t know their @rse from their elbow.

Another classic from last year was someone claiming to have been with Ellis at a certain weekend, until his father came on and said Adam wasn’t even in the Country, he was having dinner with him in France! 
 

LOL.
