Weeks ago I said that the Ipswich plan was for King to move on.   And everyone said I didn't know what I was talking about.   Maybe people are starting to see that I did indeed have the correct information at that time. Something clearly happened with the Rew situation, and Ipswich just went back to King instead. Did he just ask for more money, and Ipswich said no? Did he not want a Thursday race night and prefer Mondays at Brum? Is he giving Britain a miss altogether?  Any of these could be possible. The only theory being put around that I find hard to believe is that Birmingham offered him more money to move away from Ipswich?   Why would they do that?  With Brennan going to Ipswich, it meant that either King, Ellis or Rew would have to go.  If I were Birmingham, I would be looking to pick up whichever of those three was surplus, without the need to offer big money.   In fact with little prospect of a place elsewhere, I'd be looking to get one of them on a cut-price deal.

I certainly wouldn't pay 25 quid to watch speedway on that track, but I would at Belle Vue...

Probably to pay for the Holders and Woffinden

It's to buy two rakes and pay two people to use them.. 

I take it that is to stand? 

Not convinced we have a number 1 lined up, a season of struggle ahead at this level.
