Ipswich vs Leicester KOC Final 1st leg Monday 27th July


Recommended Posts

Dust from the get go and they wont put any water on it, newbies wont come more than once if they go home covered in dust and as for the music, clearly the tie up with Poland has taught them nothing about presentation.

Roll on September, might actually get some good meetings once tracks are not dry as a bone.

Trouble is they well watered it last time Leicester was there and the track was unraceable.

Difficult these days to get a "technical track" spot on..

The more "Elite" riders can handle it, but the next levels down can struggle on them...

Everything about this year is dire.

Don't need to go over any of it again but this winter is the be all and end all for Ipswich Speedway going forwards.

Serve this up next season and it's going to be the beginning of the end to be truthfully blunt.

Blimey...

One average season in the last what? Five?...

An "average season" where they will still make the play offs, and can still win the KO Cup...

Not just Ipswich I would say, the sport is in a mess and the loss of any one team would have a serious effect on the others being able to run a proper model.

Your promoter talks a lot of sense, but so did Stuart Douglas when he brought Arena Essex and none of the other promoters would listen to him either because he was new and they don't the idea of change, even when things are in the gutter.

And the reason why they didn't get Doyle as No1 was down to their previous owner selling up, and the time it took...

Which also then impacted every other track as fixtures couldn't be published, and season tickets couldn't be sold...

Nothing really to write home about tonight. Brennan still struggling, Lawson still not a team player and pushing Edwards into the fence and somehow we managed to draw it. Story of our season so far, nearly, but not quite. Belle Vue if we finish fourth will put us out in the play off semis. Well to be fair, any team right now puts us out of the play offs. Still… could be worse… we could be Lynn!

I agree. I bet a lot of Coventry, Cradley, Wolves, Peterborough, Swindon and Arena fans would like an 'average' season. This is not about us at Ipswich or any other team, it's about the sports survival now pure and simple.

I agree. .

I remember some of the Aces teams post 1993 to 2000+...

Six of us used to go, and we all ensured we got there as late as possible just in case any of us got given a team place!!!:D
