I tend to agree with you. Johnson would maybe be manys selection due to his flambouyance being memorable but I say the mark of the best officials is they do an excellent job without neccessarily being noticed hence my vote with Chinnery

nearly there.

Basically a plug in box that's works via the net but connects to the TV and usually comes preloaded with add on links for various streams. If you know whats on where pretty much anywhere in the world you will probably find it. Sports, TV, movies the lot all there. Note to Arson - I have taken the day off especially to check out the Usbekistan news but cant find a link - please PM me!! I have had to make do with the Armenian equivalent of Loose Women (not recommended)

My first opportunity for a 'Witches by 20' for Rocketben. Actually expect it to be much closer. 6 points either way.

Just how lucky have we been at Ipswich over the years. Could easily argue that we have had the best ever in all areas - promoter, presenter, rider, trackman, start marshall and of course fans!!

working a traditional 9-5 I havent had the pleasure of the Usbekistan news at 5 - will have to give it a try on my next day off!

I cant make it on the day but am sending the equivalent of my entrance and travel today. Hopefully others that cant go will do something similar. Hopefully the fund is swelling to a significant and meaningful sum already and will continue to do so.

Shane Parker is another. In fact Ipswich presenter Kevin Long has a tradition of calling out tickets as 'Shane Parker green NoXXX'

including plenty that you shouldnt admit to on a public forum! wink

dont judge the star by the standards of the echo! wink

That was quick - only a week since the return of the club sponsor licence! At least now we can look forward to the season starting without any hitches for us. I hope all teams can be in the same position so we all start on a level field.

beat me to it!

So we need Tilbury v Matousek v Wilson v Millen looks like a 0-0 - even the last one left would sort themselves out in the last re-run!

I think Gino will be head and shoulders above Wells and Fisher within the next 2 years - if he gets the chance.

was it taken from averages as of June 1st last year? Presume it will be the same again. Could be some interesting changes with the rolling averages moving down to just 20 meetings. Someone like Cam who had a shocking start but ended strong will likely see a big uplift at the first new set of averages.

Guest for No1 with r/r for the rest of the 1-5. A guest for either reserve also with no NL only restriction for the No7.

I take it theres no prize for the right answer!! Good luck to Ben. Hope he can take his chance.

usernames maybe - but you get just 1 vote.

ironic that the visa front is all quiet when your floorboards arent but thats life eh!Re the floorboards - have you tried letting your neighbours cat out fron under them? That should stop the squeaking. wink

Perfect for Darcy though with the election being over by the time his ban ends and Farage being in the pub anyway.

Ben Morley

need to get a move on then because very soon Farage will be in full swing with his election campaign and wont have time for the visa photos!

Add Alf WEEDon as track photographer

For me as we approach the 30th anniversary of his death I nominate Billy Sanders. As I grew up I had the Witches riders as my heroes and idols and none bigger than Billy. A true no nonsense character who to me was a star on and off the track. The ability to be smooth and fast out front and to be tough and uncomprimising from the back in equal measure. The type of rider the opposition fans would perhaps want to boo but underneath would have a respect and admiration for - a headline maker and shaper. I still vividly remember hanging over the fence at Smallmead on that Tuesday night, just a few months before that fateful day of his death, when the Witches took the title with Billy leading the way and knowing only Speedway would do for me as MY sport. I was 13 when Billy died and I grew up a lot that week as 2 days after my Grandad also died.It was the week in many ways I learnt what life - and death - is all about. So again for me bring back Billy. Richard

the status of the practice was my point - and I dont see how it would be a problem.Calling it a private practice was meant to distinguish it from an organised team practice. It was a private arrangement by individuals at at open to the public facility which is what you confirmed. Had it have been a team organised event I would see the potential problem it could cause. That said what I think doesnt really matter. If it is a problem to UKVI then thats whats important. The sport cant afford to continue to get this wrong.
