Just another ridiculous speedway situation. A rider who’s team has qualified for the play offs cannot guest for another team in the playoffs, so that the sport doesn’t look like Micky mouse when in theory the biggest tv audience will be watching. However a rider from a team that hasn’t qualified for the play offs can ride for more than one team in the playoffs. The situation with Harris is madness!! Harris plays a huge part in Ipswich qualifying for the final & will now ride against them. It would have made the sport look better to suspend the 8 day rule & allow Lawson to ride in the final at least it would have provided some consistency & any newbies watching wouldn’t be exposed to the crazy world of uk speedway.

Agree Rew at reserve with Emil & Jason returning. Beyond that I don’t really know. I’ve been critical of king this season however can’t really fault him over the last month. Wouldn’t surprise me to see him back although I make Doyle the skipper -

Luke Becker anyone for 24? -
The biggest question is around who rides for the Sheffield select side. Regardless of if the averages allow it or not Sheffield should keep in Lawson along Lambert for continuity reasons. If Harris rides it completely devalues & makes the sports highlight of the season a farce. I think this will be closer than the cup final but I think Ipswich will have enough over 2 legs to complete the job. The key riders are Riss for Ipswich & Holder for Sheffield.

It’s not clear rule bending there were enough loop holes when I read the regulations on Sunday when I was making the case for Ipswich to use Lambert, also errors on the official team sheets on the scb all made it very easy in my opinion to use him. I said on Sunday if the regulations were put to the test Lambert would end up riding

I suggest that it is….one of the reasons for the decline in attendance & lack of credibility the sport has. Also doesn’t allow for merchandise to be exploited it’s one thing to lose you favourite rider because he gets transferred but see them turn up & ride for your rivals is something else. Anyway that my thoughts but I genuinely wish you guys all the best to either find a new venue or stay at the showground. I’ve put my reasons to keep the speedway at the showground on the council’s planning feedback area. Hopefully you find a way to carry on & speedway finds a way to prosper & gain credibility. Last Thursday at Foxhall demonstrated how it could be in the uk! -

You must have been reading the Belle Vue Ippo thread, plenty of grey areas & loop holes to allow that to happen. Hopefully Ipswich have got there first
