Ipswich Witches 2027

[therefused]

It is a bit of a joke Nilsson is 4.5 but at the end of the day it’s not Ipswich fault, the rule book is a complete mess.

If this is to be the Ipswich team then it’s another tick on my Coleman BS bingo card. 

Coleman has stated the need for younger teams as his top five last year had an average age of 37. This year by sticking to his principles he has managed to get it down to 36. Little wonder he has raided the Belle Vue Babes in an attempt to get his total team average down. They do say imitation is the best form of flattery. Thank you Richard. 

One interesting quote on the 360 Podcast. “stressed that if the sport doesn't make an active, interventionist decision to "plant the tree today," it has no future” What I wasn’t expecting was rather than plant the tree he decided to rip one up from another garden and plant it in his. Top guy. 

Stay tuned for more Coleman BS bingo to follow. Get yer dobbers out. 

Wow there are some bitter lemons up in Manchester.

We all know every rider is a free agent come November 1st unless a multi year deal has been signed.

How many times before people learn. Don’t feed the troll, don’t give him the oxygen that he craves. It’s plain as day (or should be!) what his game is.

Stick it on ignore.

There’s a Belle Vue supporter on this forum and you know who you are, who is attempting to contact the Belle Vue management to look in to and contest, the average of Kim Nilsson. 
 

I wish I could say I was joking but alas. Pure desperation stuff. Comical.

Officials at Foxhall over the weekend apparently surveying the track. Measurements, markings etc. 

I hope they invited Stewart Dickson for his input?

Had a really nice phone call with Mark. Was an eye opener

If you thought the sour grapes were already bad, Just wait until the first picture of Bewley in Witches kevlars is released.

A new river will be discovered in Manchester that's for sure.

As I commented yesterday, the following rule underneath the chart also states said chart will be used if the rider has been missing for more than 3 seasons 

Absolutely nobody else is disputing what the rules state but yourself. 

010.2.3 - With the approval of the BSP LTD GC or Directors. 

That line alone is very very clear, reassessment isn't guaranteed and others promoters (and supporters) have a right to question any reassessment. 

Kim Nilsson should ABSOLUTELY NOT be allowed the 4.50 reassessment.

Phil -> Hi, Mark

Mark -> G'day

Phil -> Not Really Pal, It's a bad day because I'm still gutted about Dan.

Mark -> Aren't we all, It's a good job that I'm an Aussie otherwise we would've lost Brady to them as well.

Phil -> I know right, Have you heard about Nilsson? If yes then you need to stop this from happening.

Mark -> I'll see what I can do, No promises though.

Phil -> Thanks, Pal.

Mark -> No worries.

It's sour grapes though Phil.

The way your lot are going on anyone would think Mayfield are signing Lindgren on a 6.00.

Five Promoters (on speaker) - "Hi Richard, I believe you've signed Kim Nilsson and want him on a 4.5 average?"

Richard - "Yes that's right"

Five Promoters - "And why do you think that this should be allowed?"..

Richard - "Because its in the regs, the regs most of you wrote"..

(30 seconds pause)..

One of the Five Promoters -  'Quick! Someone get me an effing pen"!!!

Think that’ll be more accurate! And would you bet against them now hastily altering the regs for 2027?
