cowboy cookie returns?

Thing is only those that attend or watch speedway on tv on a regular basis are aware of who these international big name riders are. Speedway supporters might be getting excited about Vaculík signing for Leicester however I doubt that 99% of the UK population would have any Idea who he is. Point being that the product needs to be right to attract newcomers big names won't achieve that.

Should have done it years ago and gave the job to John Berry. I can't understand why they don't want it. I know it's their trainset however the way they are running it they won't have anything to govern in a few years at least if they had a independent person who could shake the sport up they might have a chance of saving what they have.

Watering down does not work. It's been done pretty much every winter for the last 25 years and the sport is almost dead.

Let's hope that something more far reaching comes out of this one than the league name change and rubbishty new logo that was decided at the last one.

The rule book!

And an unbeaten Rohan Tungate So onto 2018 the attendance for both finals shows that the interest in the town is still there. Hopefully Louis can put together another competitive team.

Having just watched the Australian GP was that really Sedgman riding he didn't give up once!

should SCB run the sport in the UK.? Speedway control board makes it sound like they sbould....the BSPA should be no more than a body to put ideas forward to the SCB

At least our top 2 who were injured riding in the final not off skiving in Aus

No point spending money to promote the sport to a new audience until the rules that make the sport a farce are sorted out.

How times change Peterborough qualify for the final and 2 of their top riders can be arsed to ride. In 98 I seem to remember the Craven shield final 2nd leg being rained off and and both sets of Coventry and Ipswich riders rode into November when out of contract...... Commitment vs take the piss!

If the clubs own riders can't be arsed to ride in a cup final that says alot about the state of UK speedway and unlines all that is wrong in terms of fans unable to connect to their team. I aways thought that contracts were effective until October 31st? If Holder and Wilson Dean are both out of the country then they should along with Sedgeman should face a 12 month UK ban which would also mean no visa or right of residence here for the season. Harsh maybe but the sport needs to stand up against those that think then can do what they like. Both sets of fans are being short changed.

Holder is on a weekend break with Lords Lucian and shergah

I thought he did OK with us last time around half several knocks mind. I just thought being a little older our asset and seems to enjoy being at Ipswich he would be worth another go......his average would seem attractive to.

@Gino_Manzares still looking for a club in 2018 for U.K. If you have any leads or know of any available spots, please notify. RT please! Seeing this on twitter does that mean that Louis is not going to be giving Gino a contract?

How about Hancock King Nicholls Heeps Manzares Greaves Hume or mountain For next season? Get Hancocks name on a contract we can use guests to cover when he is unavailable which I guess would be most weeks.

Spot on do away with fixed gate positions fixed riding order double points double up and down and guests

If that's true Regards Redcar then the writing is well and truly on the wall for this once great sport! The old NL had got it right the only time I remember Ipswich using a guest in there 2 NL seasons was when Andy Galvin rode for us at home against King's Lynn in an inter league challenge.

Wouldn't surprise me if both Nicholls and Manzares are at Foxhall next season.

Tung ate?

That's how myself and many thousands up and down the country feel.....
