  1. I'm actually really happy we have a team. In reality we were never going to Emil and Jason in the same team. It's still a competitive team in my eyes and we've won 5 out of 7. I accept that we should not accept mediocrity, and certainly in the early 2000s we had some poor sides at Ipswich. However, the sport must come first and we go back to basics. The sports current administrators are playing the violins on the deck as the water level is rising and it simply cannot continue. When some of my fellow Ipswich supporters moan, just think of those who no longer have a team or track.
  2. Unfortunately British Speedway is bit like the Doctor is administering morphine to the patient but he can't get the dose right At some point he'll overload the syringe and speedway in Britain is a goner!
  3. Today's fixtures, or this one and return later shows how much the sport has declined in the UK. I seem to remember some of the Bank Holidays had a full league programme in both leagues.
  4. Surely from a cost perspective, potential promotions such as Cradley, Coventry Peterborough and the likes would see it as a sustainable business model. Clearly not!
  5. I never saw what the issue was with the 1995/96 model. Everyone with an out and out number 1 and a selection of riders on 5 6 and 7 point averages. I thought it was great seeing different opponents every week, but clearly that's common sense 🤔
  6. Once again long suffering supporters will be subject to guests galore in what should be one of the key fixtures of the season, and yes before anyone says it because we cannot help injuries but it's just another nail in the coffin.
  7. Whoops fair point Iain didn't realise he was in charge.
  8. As I stated before it's a controversial point, only ex riders in charge of official matches. A non rider simply cannot simulate a racing situation.
  9. Clearly they didn't want to get bashed and smashed by us! On a serious note the sport has feck all credibility left. Surely and yes I know it's not always accurate but presumably the Met Office will provide a much more accurate forecast for certain organisations. I'll wager a penny that fixtures will still be going on after the play off dates!
  10. Perhaps they can call it the groundhog cup in future.
  11. Given its a bulky foam fence, it must be quite a task to move it from Lynn to Northampton. Does the fence get a 7 day ban if it doesn't make it back to Lynn for the next home fixture.
  12. If British Speedway had an advertising campaign and used the strapline ' subject to availability' would that be considered as taking the piss?
