I remember back in the day a similar type on here called “Alljack”, an Ipswich fan. The good people of Ipswich were embarrassed by his behaviour and chased him off the forum. Clearly different breeds of people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TTT Posted 1 hour ago Report Share Posted 1 hour ago Riss is much better than his average and he proved that at Oxford when beating some top riders on a consistent basis. Scored 20 odd one night against Ipswich if I remember correctly and that was with Doyle and Emil in the side which goes to show Erik's ability. Just got to hope he stays fit, Nilsson would have a familiar face in the pits to help him settle in so it's looking good on the Team spirit front as well which is something that was lacking last year.

TTT Posted 1 hour ago Report Share Posted 1 hour ago King confirmed on the socials now. Deserved his place in the 1-7 imo, High GSA for sure but last year Danny stepped up when the Club needed riders to step up and embrace the pressure of the tough challenge ahead. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Riss ended up at number 1 for Oxford in 2025 albeit in a team lacking any top end strength. He’s a fine rider. BUT, his health issues are a concern. He has them, comes back, relapses, rinse and repeat. Fair play to Ipswich for giving the fella another opportunity if his signing is confirmed. One thing he will get with Richard Coleman, is plenty of support and understanding. But they would be silly not to have some kind of back up protection in place if things don’t go well again. That’s just pure common sense. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TTT Posted 54 minutes ago Report Share Posted 54 minutes ago The last averages I have for Nilsson and Riss in the Top flight are Nilsson 7.13 and Riss 6.69 = 13.82 Rumoured to sign both of them for a combined 9.55. That's some serious saver on the pair, Just got to hope Riss stays fit but at the end of the day I'd rather take a chance on Erik then a Youngster from Europe with no UK experience as I've seen too many of them flop drastically like Gusts and Hellstrom-Bangs to name some recent examples.

Aries Posted 54 minutes ago Author Report Share Posted 54 minutes ago https://ipswichwitches.co/captain-king-named-tru7-group-witches-rider-of-the-year-for-2027/ Fully deserved. Musielak wouldn’t have been far behind I’m sure as he had an excellent campaign too but no doubt the right winner. Also so nice to read Chris Louis was there and received an award too. Great to see he’s still actively in and around it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ouch Posted 49 minutes ago Report Share Posted 49 minutes ago On 11/3/2026 at 8:50 AM, szkocjasid said: Riss would be available on a 5.05 ave. As long as he rides one league match in the Prem he'd revert to his rolling ave from 2025 (6.93) so if he did suffer from illness again, which we hope he wouldn't, Ipswich would have more scope for a replacement. 3 hours ago, Aries said: It’s worth quoting this from szkocjasid again because this will be a safety blanket if things go wrong again for Riss. His recent average is used so that’s his much lower converted Championship average. Once the season gets underway and he reverts back to his Premiership GSA, we’d have much more options in terms of guests or permanent replacement. Hopefully that won’t be needed and he’s back to full fitness. There was an article in Poland recently about his return to full health and his return to racing where he went and won the world long track championship. Apologies guys, completely got the wrong end of the stick and I’m looking forward to seeing Eric having a long and enjoyable season as a witch. Top trolling with the bad language and insults btw, true to form as always. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
