  2. It’s not since losing Emil that King has become a scapegoat, a lot of supporters have been frustrated/ fed up with him for the last 3 or 4 years. For a guy who has spent the bulk of his career at Ipswich he is beaten by riders around Ipswich who he should be comfortably getting the better of. He gets passed far to easily & does seem to ride the lines that don’t work. As the skipper he can’t team ride to save his life either blocks his teammates lines or just clears off out front sometimes even passing he own partner. when the chips are down be that a single heat or meetings like the ones against Sheffield, or both meetings against Birmingham this week he just goes missing. I think he has genuinely gone stale at Ipswich & needs a move to revitalise his career as much as Ipswich needs the change too. We need someone with some more improvement in them next year. His demeanour on the TV against Sheffield wasn’t skipper material he looked beaten & downtrodden. We need our own Sam Morsy to skipper the Witches & that man in Doyle.

  3. This is too close to call. If Glasgow are to win and take the bonus point it needs Matic to ride like he did in heats 3 and 9 against Edinburgh. If he rides like he did in heat 14 we have no chance of winning never mind taking the bonus point. Also depends on which Danyon turns up - he could be a match winner for the Bears. Whatever happens it should be a brilliant night of speedway AND its dry!

  4. The Kvech “talk” has only come from Cowboy Cookie on here, I assume because he wants him. Nothing in that for me. On Emil, the Witches promotion will obviously want him back but they’ll be relaxed about the situation. If he decides time is up here, then Musielak will be a strong contender to join Doyle up top. I think we’ll want Brennan in the team also, but so will plenty of others.

  5. Just boarded the train heading north to Edinburgh then on to Bathgate. Looking forward to my 2nd Northern Tour with Workington tomorrow. No flat white as yet and had to settle for a cappuccino on the train. Pirates to win 48-42 👍🙂 C'mon the Boyzzzz ☠️

  6. To be fair, apart from the incitement of the crowd, he was pretty good. He probably needs to be made aware that even though he's the presenter, there are still rules to abide by. As for the Speedway, another enjoyable trip to Cowley, although the victory did seem a little hollow as it appeared that even though the riders were trying to win, the management obviously were not.

  7. Danny King should score 7 a meeting that’s what his position in the team is Doyle and Emil 13… Ellis and King 7 … Dan T and Rew 5 and Jenkins 3….. that’s 53 points a meeting I’m an Ipswich fan and yes sometimes it’s frustrating seeing Danny struggle but since back from injury he has scored 7 twice … 8… 9 twice and 10 and 12……. Good scores I would say at home or do some of our fans expect him to match Doyle and Emil Our team is built top heavy … but built superbly well that we have the next 2 riders in Ellis and King who regularly get 7 or more to support the top 2 Since losing Emil it seems King is a scapegoat for us losing … he isn’t going to get 10-12 most weeks he isn’t that level

  11. Probably because the team is losing, people are looking at scores closer? Looking on the speedway updates site (thanks again) Danny's form does seem to have slipped (still getting 7's and 8's but having 6 rides to get the points). His average for the 4 losses at home is about 6 whereas the previous 4 matches at home it's just over 7.5

  17. Well that’s 2hrs I won’t get back, FTG in possibly 12 of the 15 races, Saddlebow Rd used to be a great race track now it’s just another gate and go track

  18. I've just read on the FIM website that Bartosz Zmarzlik had made the GP semis 52 times straight. A run that was ended at Cardiff. Well I thought it was pretty astounding.

  19. Let’s just get Musielak in the side now he is as eligible to ride in the cup final as Harris is.

  20. A change in format / layout is a norm we eventually get familiar with. Good intention but badge / newbie rewards feels somewhat childish.

  21. Not possible to do that as would've been the case in the old days Any protest has to be ahead of the meeting now

  22. He may have a reaction if he does ride and have to pull out of the Witches.Then he has a 50/50 chance whether he gets a 28 day ban or not.But he is genuine imo so if he is fit he would ride.

  23. This is speedway,, and we know there is a rule in the rulebook that says,,, any rule can be broken at any time if it suits.

  24. Should support the comets win lose or draw, if more people are like you, and it's a poor crowd, for a top class opposition, what do the promotion think, if the crowd is down, especially when they will have an eye on 2025 season. UTC

  29. Thought Troy was excellent last night btw. Very unlike him but he made a couple of poor gates which is normally a strength, but he was trying all sorts of lines bomber style to catch people in front. Great effort.

  30. Yes. The plan was in place and Lindgren originally agreed to guest for the Cup final meetings and all play off fixtures. The management at Ipswich are quite open and happy to talk if you catch them prior to meetings.

  31. Redcar have a ten point lead for the bonus point and they have been less than that amount adrift in most of their away meetings this year.

  36. Well I for one thought Greg Blair’s performance tonight was a breath of fresh air a 100% improvement on the usual incumbent who is a total bore who likes the word “Obviously” and usually fails to announce the line up until they are at the first bend.

  37. Ben Cook certainly improved at Saddlebow Rd over night.

  39. Very surprised the KL promotion didn’t do a package offer for yesterday and today - especially knowing tonight’s is streamed on BSN. Was there last night and looked the poorest crowd I’ve seen all season, can imagine there will be even fewer tonight… Some gesture of both meetings for £35-£40 might have tempted a few more…?

  40. I think that tonight could be a good match. From the Sheffield side I just hope that we don't ride as bad as we did last time. If Picko rides like he has been doing of late and Jason keeps up the improvement he has shown over the last few meeting then I think that Sheffield should just about do it. I always like coming to KL as I have happy memories fron my time on the spanners with Adam Allott.

  41. Exactly, out of control not knowing the outcome of the move. That equates to very dangerous. That’s not how it should be done.

  45. It appears you are posting just to get attention, as stated, there aren't any ‘ dangerous ‘ riders. Occasionally a rider makes a mistake , rides too hard or simply gets it wrong, …..thats it!
