  1. We haven’t been able to secure one despite looking far and wide since the end of May so best of luck on that score. Having said that, the advantage you may have though is Robert Lambert before the cut off.
  2. https://x.com/jazman86/status/1808975947904733522?s=46
  3. Justice done. Well in boys. Absolute Masterclass from Emil.
  4. You’re either gonna sit on one side of the fence or the other here. But if you’re connected to either Lynn or Peterborough there’s always gonna be conflict. Just try and understand each others stance and point of view. Everyone on here has one thing in common, we’re all huge Speedway fans. If we weren’t, we wouldn’t be on here. But that can make people’s thoughts on the whole episode extremely blinkered in favour of keeping Speedway at the Showground first and foremost. Those that love their speedway and have been for so many years, are not interested in listening to the other side of the argument. So it works both ways. Whether we like it or not, we’re all fans of a dwindling minority sport these days, that’s just a fact. Could or SHOULD, the vast land of the Showground be preserved for keeping our minority sport supported by a poor number of supporters every other week for 6 months of the year at the expense of other plans that could be put to far better use? People on here don’t want to hear that of course, because we’re all speedway fanatics. But I personally don’t think the term “selfish” is that outlandish, I’m sorry I just don’t.
  5. I think we’re all a little suspicious regarding the reasons given, even Lynn themselves don’t seem convinced. I just think could be a problem in the BSPL green lighting a transfer elsewhere when it leaves Lynn with more than one headache to solve. Wouldn’t sit right really.
  6. If he’s stated he’s not fit to return to Lynn, would the BSPL green light a move elsewhere? Not sure they would to be honest.
  7. They seem to be hinting that they’re not convinced there’s not external shenanigans going on here. That’s the way I’ve read it anyway.
  8. Yep. So does Ben Barker, Cam Heeps
  9. https://ipswichwitches.co/raceday-preview-oxford-rowe-motor-oil-premiership-r2-a-2/ Nicholls for Doyle.
  10. Was my immediate thought, but he now doesn’t fit.
  11. We don’t know what was going through his mind do we? Everyone reacts differently. I’ve no doubt he’ll be gutted that he’s the cause of his friend suffering potentially serious injuries. You’re a Workington fan, I get you’re going to be disappointed here.
  12. I wouldn’t call that “waterlogged” either, but there we go.
  13. They’re close friends, Rew will be devastated. He would never “deliberately take out Tate” so stop being a complete plonker. Rew just isn’t that type of rider.
  14. Fingers crossed for the young lad.
  15. We can’t ride the place it’s as simple as that. We battered you by 18 at Foxhall and still only crept over the line due to a masterclass from Doyle and Emil in 15 at your place. TTT is right, if we want to win the title this year we have to avoid Belle Vue in the semi and then hope Sheffield knock you out. Mind you, we have a little break in fixtures shortly and we badly need it. It’s hard enough going to the NSS for us with a full fully fit team, but a team carrying injuries this was always likely to happen. We badly need a breather.
  16. Sheffield can’t fit him in unless they swap him for Howarth which they’re not going to do. He fits at Leicester for Cook, or Oxford for Riss. Those are his only options really.
  17. Realism Geoffrey. Comments are simply based on actual facts. We’re cr@p at the NSS, as the stats prove. It COULD change on Monday in theory, although you won’t find many putting money on it.
  18. All a bit academic at the moment until Musielak is officially released/Replaced by Lynn. We still don’t know his exact intentions either, maybe he doesn’t want to sign for anyone in the UK for the rest of this season who knows. But yes, he’d be an excellent replacement for Doyle, goes well at Foxhall first and foremost, and also goes well at the two tracks that will likely be our biggest threat in the play offs.
  19. Reading the stats Badge, we raced 11 meetings there, 11 defeats. Tells you all you need to know really. We’re cr@p there.
  20. https://x.com/ipswichspeedway/status/1806639058115760296?s=46
  21. Oxford probably would have won at Foxhall earlier in the season when Tungate didn’t fancy it (sorry I mean was stuck in traffic) and Oxford had to run with 6 riders. We won by 6 in the end, with Oxford only having one representative in four heats. Lots of anomalies there though. Nicholls guesting FOR Oxford, not for us. But then Doyle was riding and we were at full strength. Harris and Janowski unbelievably scored seven between them! That won’t happen again. Harris far better at Foxhall than his score of 4, and Janowski is now riding far better than his score of three that evening. Does that mean anything regarding tonight’s meeting? No, not really. Which means all I’ve just typed was a waste of time and a load of old guff really
  22. Agree Badge. Vital member of the team who is riding really well.
  23. https://ipswichwitches.co/raceday-preview-oxford-rowe-motor-oil-premiership-r2-h/ As expected, Nicholls for Doyle.
  24. Agreed. I had to keep checking the programme to make sure it was actually him! Foxhall has to be one of if not THE best away track for him over the years.
