Please tell me they're not seriously going with the logo they've got on their website as part of their rebranding?

Smart idea to tie fans into a season ticket, horrendous idea to attract any new supporters.

Bit odd to see Paco leave as an asset. Overall though i think Ipswich have built a fairly solid team, should be one challenging at the top especially if Kerr can get going quick.

That is a massive loss for us. Arthur was one of the riders who could've gone on to have a great season, especially with a good run at reserve. Just hope we can fit him in somewhere along the line when he's fully fit.

1. Simon Stead 2. Arthur Sissis 3. Josh Auty 4. Josh Bates 5. Jason Garrity 6. Paco Castagna 7. Nathan Greaves 3 exciting heat leaders and a former tiger too. Wouldn't personally want that team but just an example. Can't see Auty leaving Scunny though, he seemed pretty confident he'd be staying Scunthorpe and wouldn't expect anything less.

Shame that Proctor won't be back. Would be handy on such a low average but can understand why the promotion would be hesitant after last season.

£40,000

I really just put any of those 4 of examples of how it could be filled. Fully expect Skidmore & Worrall to be elsewhere but they were just half decent examples. Bellego could be a real possibility i think.

So from whats been said on here Berwick are basically looking at a team of- 1. Jorgensen 7.80 2. Mellgren 5.57 3. Doolan 6.95 4. rider up to 6.85-R.Worrall 6.84/Skidmore 6.84/Bellego 5.98 5. Alden 7.37 6. Wethers 4.96 7. Carr 3

Well, that's Paco out then! Shame but it's not the biggest loss. I'm pretty happy with how the new rule has worked out definitely suits our sort of team building for next season. Now we know the rules, let the speculation begin! 1. Simon Stead 10.41 2. Adam Ellis 4.55 3. Ty Proctor 6.68 4. Josh Bates 5.44 5. Jason Garrity 8.46 6. Arthur Sissis 3.71 7. Wajtknecht/Perks/Greenwood 3 42.25

And yet Paco outscored both Wajtknecht & Ayres in our challenge meeting against Cradley...

I'd say that's exactly what you need, that's if you actually want to bother proving your point...My point is are Branford and Clegg ambitious signings? You can't have it all with the points limit and Edinburgh proved it can work this season. One signing doesn't make a team, especially at reserve and if we can fill the rest of the spots with quality then we can afford to carry a rider like Paco. For me anyways if we could run with team of- 1.Kurtz 2.Bates 3.Proctor 4.Bellego/Jonas Andersen/Birks 5.Garrity 6.Sissis 7.Paco/Wajtknecht/Who'swinnin86's amazing rider who's on an average of 3.50 or less who'll win us the league - then we should do just fine.

Where's your suggestions then? Let's be realistic, if we're gonna run with Stead, Kurtz or Garrity we're going to have to run with weaker reserve. More than likely two 3 pointers. Edinburgh have run all season without a stellar reserve pairing and have one of their best seasons. I can't see how a pairing of Arthur & Paco is that bad of a sacrifice to strengthen the rest of the team.

What other 3 pointer shall we use then? Personally I'd say Paco deserves a chance at reserve next season, I think he was put in a tough position last season and didn't have the full opportunities that others had who started the season in March. Bit of a risk, but one I'd say is worth taking.

What makes you say Castagna won't be back? I'd fully expect him to be in our line up if we don't see a change in the rules.

After listening to talking tigers there's two things nailed on for next year. 1. Ash Birks is taking a year out and 2. We're more than likely to see a Premier League draft system come into place. Which does us no favours since we've got Castanga & Sissis on 3 pt averages. Very difficult to speculate on the team since we don't know the build up of the league or how it'll be set out, but I think we can say for certain that Stead and Bates will be back next season.

Excellent to see over £5000 has already been raised in such a short space of time. Just shows how the community as a whole can come together when a rider is in need. Hopefully more money will be raised and more positive news about Lewis Kerr condition too.

You've never been great with your timing of things have you? Wrong bloody time Martin...

you'll have 6.20 for a temporary replacement for Rosen from may.

I wouldn't be that certain!

Would leave us 0.01 over the limit if it's a straight swap for Bellego. Off the top of my head, these are the available options below David average- James Wright Pepe Franc Rasmus Jensen Mathieu Tresarrieu Kalle Katajisto Steen Jensen

So now we need two replacements! Gutted for both Stead & Bellego. Only person I can think of replacing Bellego for the short term is Garrity, but we'd need 0.20 from whoever comes in to replace Stead. Or we could wait till the averages change depending on whether they'd be a help or hindrance to us.

Caught me out before i could edit it!

A change in riding order for Sheffield- 1.Stead 2.Birks 3.Bellego 4.Proctor 5.Compton 6.Bates 7.Sissis Don't see the sense in putting Andre at 5 personally, but suppose we'll see how we go on. Can't see us sticking to that going into Thursday.
