Well if your own fans didn’t constantly keep bringing Ipswich’ plans on to your thread then it wouldn’t be elaborated on would it.

You’re absolutely miles off, millions of miles. The fella doesn’t have to “breach” any contract either because he’s signed nothing of the sort. Where did you get that from?

Totally wrong. Not after the same riders at all. It’s been made very clear who Ipswich were, and continue to be after. Holder, Worrall and Andersen are all in at Peterborough.

Impossible to put a number on it, but there’ll be supporters that don’t want their rivals having such a coup. No doubt about it. They’ll know who they are because they’ll be smirking reading this. They’ll want Ipswich signing a couple of duffers make no mistake.

It’s “red tape”. Dance around it any way you like, it’s red tape. You’re another who is desperate for this not to happen, we get it.

Well you’ve answered your own question really haven’t you?

Thank you. Edited

He does. He knows every single detail, every single obstacle, and yet still believes he can get it done. Old Wolfie knows better though obviously!

Of course it is if they’re allowing him to ride in Poland!!!!

Nothing deluded about it! You’re hoping it’s delusion because the ONLY set of fans that want Sayfutdinov here are Ipswich supporters. All this “I really hope he does come cos it’s great for our league but I just can’t see it” is complete b0llocks that most of us can see right through! Whether you or Tinywhatshisface from 6 finger land who continues to stick his fingers in his ears and go blah blah blah and pretend it’s all still rumour with no substance, the fact is that Louis is actively trying to get this deal done. Whether he’s ultimately successful is neither here nor there and won’t prove you or anyone else who maintains he’s “definitely not coming” right. Louis will know more than you on what this deal needs to get over the line, and the fact he’s still actively pursuing it tells you that he believes he can get it done. If it was black and white with little to no chance he would have moved on to someone else, that is currently NOT the case.

Chris Holder, Ritchie Worrall, Hans Andersen. One left.

Waiting on a visa? I’d say that all but confirms it isn’t Ritchie Worrall..

Depends. Does he even know anything about the sport? To him, Andersen and Worrall might be cracking signings..

Nicki Pedersen? Maybe long in the tooth but still scoring very well. Biggest issue and concern is the injury.

But why are they not doing the same for every other rider then? Just these three? Is it about the war or isn’t it? If they’re continuing to pontificate about the war in the Ukraine then they shouldn’t be allowing them to ride in Poland either should they? This makes absolutely no sense whatsoever.

So this is again all about the dictatorship of the Poles and ceases to be about the stance against the war. If they were continuing to make a stand against Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and banned all Russians from riding anywhere including Poland then fair enough. But effectively banning them from riding anywhere but allowing them to ride in their own league again is a complete nonsense.

I doubt it. I’m surprised he did as well as he did. He hasn’t even bothered with it in recent years but has done it this year to experiment and test new engines. He wasn’t particularly happy with his speed last year so is in the process of changing lots of things.

Tungate is one horrible, horrible little bellend.

You also said Holder “definitely 100%” wasn’t at Peterborough.

People will look at the name and immediately think they have a good signing but I’d be extremely wary personally. Only a few weeks ago he gave an interview saying he’d like a return to Poole one day and riding for anyone else just “isn’t the same” for him. Just how much is he going to put in at Peterborough? Ask the Lynn fans what he was like for them back in the day! And that was years ago when he was still in his pomp!!

Maybe not him particularly, but that’s why it’s really not worth rushing to complete your team just to satisfy impatient supporters. There’ll be a few I’d guess that will make themselves available between now and late March. Very little if any competition now (if Peterborough’s team is sorted) so sit back and see who becomes available in the next few weeks.

Hume on a 3 point average is a fall back option to a heatleader? That makes no sense. If Worrall has done a u turn and signed for Ipswich as you suggest, then Hume is completely out of the picture. I’m sorry but they’re not leaving the side over 3 points under. I’d suggest Batchelor if anything would get a call if Worrall ends up at Foxhall.

Absolutely not a chance in hell those two are the final Ipswich riders. No Sayfutdinov is totally plausible, but he’s not leaving the team over 3 points under the limit.

https://britishspeedway.co.uk/2022-rider-statistics/ That’s a fair reflection of the rider’s abilities across the season no?

Absolutely. Hume from what I’ve heard wanted a move to Leicester.
