Ipswich v Oxford Thursday 10th April
Steve Irving replied to Arch Stanton's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
See this is the problem when you spout biased blinkered drivel on here, sometimes the footage gets uploaded and you get caught out. Want to retract your biased lies Lucifer? Ellis never elbowed Wright or anyone else from the moment the tapes rose, to the second he crossed the finish line 🙄 -
Pi$$ off.

He’s going to be a star this boy. He has box office entertainer written all over him. Heard a whisper that a premiership club have already agreed terms with his family to sign up as a club asset on his 16th birthday. Been doing plenty of laps there already.

Ipswich v Oxford Thursday 10th April
Steve Irving replied to Arch Stanton's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
You’re generalising and taking one comment from one poster and another from a different poster and wrongly claiming that it’s all coming from the same person and they are being contradictive 🙄 You’re also (no shock there) making absolutely no sense whatsoever. It’s far easier to build a team of seven riders up to a points limit (unless you’re Oxford) than it is replacing the best rider in the league like for like mid season. You’re comparing apples with oranges. Sheffield couldn’t replace Woffinden either. It’s almost impossible to replace those guys. It certainly ISNT impossible to build a team up to a points limit though. -

You’ve even got that wrong 🙄 -
King's Lynn Stars 2025
Steve Irving replied to Bald Bloke's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
It undoubtedly brings more pressure which in turn can then affect confidence and affect results in those heats you’re describing where he could/should be beating riders of his own level. He needs to get away from 1 sharpish. -
King's Lynn Stars 2025
Steve Irving replied to Bald Bloke's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
TBF it can affect confidence riding in a position that you’re just not good enough to be in. This just seems to be a very tired old Kings Lynn set up to me. There’s very little there to get excited about with this team it’s just a bit drab isn’t it. -

On paper? They have the best team full stop, Phil. -

They’ve manipulated nothing. Jenkins met the qualifying criteria again this yeah that all of the clubs set. Don’t be annoyed that others can build good teams whilst your own team is clearly quite crap at it. -
Birmingham v Ipswich Monday 7th April
Steve Irving replied to Arch Stanton's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
https://speedwayhub.com/belle-vue-aces-sign-tate-zischke-in-place-of-connor-mountain/ Ah but the pilar of the Speedway community that is Belle Vue, never do things for their own personal gain, it’s always for the benefit of others. Bless their little hearts. Young Brit, pops in 11 points at Oxford, gets axed for another Aussie. You do talk some utter sh!t. -
Does the Premiership need a salary cap?
Steve Irving replied to LagutaRacingFan's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Great idea, let’s have a salary cap that forces out your Emil’s and Holders to give the crap at the bottom more of a chance. That will really get the turnstiles clicking in huge numbers. -

As soon as it became common knowledge that Harris was in at Lynn, every man and his dog kind of knew Boughen was going to be Kings Lynn’s rising star. -
Birmingham v Ipswich Monday 7th April
Steve Irving replied to Arch Stanton's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
So you want it to benefit YOUR team instead by getting first dibs because you were crap the previous season? Lol The whole priority “pick” based on a completely different season’s league placings is bonkers. Why should a team get to choose the best rider first just because they were useless the previous season? It’s a different season!!! -
King's Lynn Stars 2025
Steve Irving replied to Bald Bloke's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Kvech has been a tad disappointing though. Yes he’s done ok, but he looks like a run of the mill middle order rider when I personally thought he could be a force and become a number one quite quickly. Hasn’t quite happened but still time. -
Birmingham v Ipswich Monday 7th April
Steve Irving replied to Arch Stanton's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
And yet they still beat you on your own track. Despite Birmingham pulling 8 points back the result was never in doubt from the moment the tapes rose in heat one. The track was undoubtedly a “leveller” it was absolutely horrid. -

Thompson seems to be following the same career path as Tom Brennan. He’s got a few years on Brennan but he’s clearly heading in the same upward direction. Leicester must be watching his progress with massive regret. That’s one monumental bollock dropped by them. He’s also quickly moved to heatleader status in the Championship as well. Fair play to Glasgow for snapping him up, but Poole must be another kicking themselves. He seems tailor made for Poole so a missed opportunity there for them. -
Sheffield v Birmingham 3/4 Premiership R1
Steve Irving replied to Manifesto's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
It’s not as daft a suggestion as it seems. No it won’t happen of course, but would it improve the entertainment if dialled in home riders started behind the visiting riders? 100% yes. -
Sheffield v Birmingham 3/4 Premiership R1
Steve Irving replied to Manifesto's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
And the one last evening at Oxford. I think this is quite common early season though to be fair. Normally improves when things settle down and you get in to the season properly. -
Sheffield v Birmingham 3/4 Premiership R1
Steve Irving replied to Manifesto's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Think you need to calm down a bit. Enjoy a resounding win of course, but it was Birmingham at home. Is there a reason you’ve conveniently forgotten about the Emil crash that ended his and Ipswich’ season? There was a very real safety issue there last season whether you choose to deny it until you’re blue in the face or not. Your very own riders criticised the track live on TV, we all heard it. Again deny it all you like, but the dirt pile up by the fence WAS dangerous for anyone brave enough to go out there. The majority wisely chose not to. -
Oxford v Ipswich 3rd April
Steve Irving replied to Arch Stanton's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Really nice lad Tom isn’t he. Very level headed young man and it’s great to see him progress and do well. -
Birmingham v Ipswich Monday 7th April
Steve Irving replied to Arch Stanton's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Huge caveats with those two defeats though! Littered with guests and rider replacements. They looked nothing like an Ipswich team let’s be honest. They didn’t face anything close to what they’ll be facing Monday. -
Oxford v Ipswich 3rd April
Steve Irving replied to Arch Stanton's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
If Riss scored 10 instead of 20 Oxford get battered. He didn’t and they didn’t, just like Tungate didn’t get 5 more. Bloody daft playing what ifs because you can play that game both ways. -

Steve Irving replied to InTheDeepStuff's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
The forum is a laughing stock. You can spam and troll your way through threads no problem, you can get the likes of the Poole idiot constantly bumping a four year old Poole thread in the Premiership section to the top just because he can, but call someone a wally and you’ll get immediately suspended for two weeks. I have nothing against Peterborough whatsoever and I’m sympathetic to their plight, but that thread should no longer be in the Premiership section either! A mod doing their job should be locking it, or moving it to general discussions. Otherwise what’s the point in having subsections to this forum? May as well just have one big general section and let anyone post whatever they like. -
Ipswich v Belle Vue 27th March KOC 2nd leg
Steve Irving replied to Arch Stanton's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
He’s clearly just embarrassed and looking for excuses. If there was a bad batch of fuel, then Bewley wouldn’t have scarpered off in heat 6 with the fastest time of the night. That kinda brings his theory crashing down. They simply weren’t good enough. Follow through? Follow through with what??
