What are people’s thoughts on Rob Godfreys tenure leading the BSPL ? is he the right person to lead the sport out of its current top flight mess and if not who would you like to see as a replacement ? my personal opinion is we need a change and my shortlist would be Phil Morris Matt ford or Peter facenna.

He wouldn’t be as brennans average is higher

He wouldn’t be as brennans average is higher

Musielak as the +1 would fit nicely

It will always be compost corner to me

The original intention was just for British youngsters to gain top flight experience but self interest ruled and it became a free for all

And even a huge influx of cash will only delay the inevitable. we need a independent body with a long term plan. Two divisions of similar size with promotion and relegation. two of British speedways successes are Team GB and BSN. Both nothing to do with current promotions.

Another view is he could have continued and lost enough money to not be able to continue in 27. maybe the bombshell has just been dropped 12 months early. The end result is still the same.

Would YOU be prepared to underwrite any losses that Ipswich speedway incurs next season. ? We already know that £60k needs to be found to replace the tv money. A new air fence also needs purchasing too. less fixtures with a much weaker product and more repetition is going to lessen income too. oh yes I’d definitely risk my house for it.

Exactly. The whole package is worth much more than a big points deal what is interesting though and has seemed to be the case for 30 years or so is that Poole sponsors are loyal to the team rather than the rider. so when a Poole rider moves on the sponsorship goes and is given instead to a incoming rider. most riders tend to keep sponsors going forward despite changing clubs.

Absolutely brilliant meeting. Typical Nicki pedersen completely oblivious of his team mate and hindering them

I believe both of those offers were conditional on Chris staying on and running the club on behalf of someone else. Which after last time he didn’t want to do.

No tv money worth £60k and a new airfence is required probably approx £35k So a deficit of ££95k before a wheel has touched the track. Prospective purchasers please form an orderly queue.

Fully understand and accept your opinion Aries. like many others I’ve followed the club for 40 years and I feel like there has been a death in the family with the thought of no Ipswich speedway. during my life of ups and downs it’s always been my escape and enjoyment. like I said earlier I don’t know the full story and I imagine it will never fully be told. I don’t know if that’s a good or a bad thing tbh. fingers crossed we have some good news very soon and we can return to normal and follow the witches.
