More??

How many managerial medals does he currently have to add to?

If he wants to feel a winners medal he can have one of Marks. He can’t close the drawer containing all his Aces & Aussie medals. 😄

Plenty more to add to what?....

If Ipswich run at their usual league title winning regularity then Paul will be not far off 90 when they win it again... 😁

😂in all seriousness I think our win rate might start ticking up only 10 titles to catch you guys up.

We did try to sell you bitter but you had accumulated a load over last season. Apparently it’s was weak (not your fault) and left a sour taste in the mouth. 🤣

Just incase anyone else thought it is AI, it’s not, we genuinely have Aces lager on tap at the stadium.

It's bloody awful as well, we had to drink snakebite at the GP's lol.

Even I couldn't resist the chance to bring up Carrick the other day either.

Hopefully Belle Vue play ball soon as this is what the Sport needs.

Proper rivalry between the two biggest Clubs in British Speedway.

I’ll second that.

The food and beer offer in the main grandstand was nothing short of shockingly awful.

Generally is at most big events top price charged bang average at best served up.

In relation to the quality, I think what you say was true about 10 years ago, but venues have attempted to improve the quality more recently. For example, you can get some good pasties at Twickenham and the food at the Marketa was good.

I have attended major sporting events all over the world and what was served up at the NSS at last years GP was in the bottom quartile at best.

It's standard frozen processed sh*te...

Never understood why people eat at these events given, unless you have a decent independent food producer with their own van, it is fast food crap..

100's of great local restaurants in so many locations where sporting events are held, yet people seem to think some, basically, microwaved dog food, served up by some 17 year old kid who started working there half an hour before it opened, is worth purchasing...

And then complain it is not good!!!

Totally agree i get a meal before going into stadiums and with a copy of the good beer guide plenty of good real ale options around all tracks.

It's quite fitting how Cairns and Foord are the reserves in 2027.

Two young British riders who've rattled some cages in the CHAMP over the last couple of years.

great shift from Bob - great guy too!

So is the rumours that it will be Riss and Nilsson to cap off the team?

Honestly quite disappointed with the Foord signing today, we've gifted Leicester Loftus and honestly I think Hodder is probably better despite Belle Vue having the last choice.

Clearly someone has leaked the information. However, and this might be controversial but I'm not a Bewley fan, even before the injury. And I'll be damned disappointed if Sayfuitinov ends up at Belle Vue and of course we have Bewley as second heat leader. Not a criticism of the rider just would prefer Sayfuitinov.

Nothing Mayfield could do with the Rising Star position tbh hence why it was very important to sign Cairns imo.

We literally picked before Leicester, Belle Vue and Sheffield and got IMO the worst rider of the remaining options. I'd be happy to be proved wrong though.

looking at how the rising stars are lining up i struggle to believe they were picked in any sort of order
