Would rather a younger rider to replace riss with a greater potential upside - agree riss body language just didn’t look at all the same on bike post illness, not convinced he’s on a false low average I think the mistakes Danyon showed in the playoffs confirmed that he’s kinda reached his level now, he’s a lovely lad and gives it everything but we need a number 6 alongside Dan Thompson who can improve and I just think Danyon is the rider he’s going to be.

You’d keep blodorn ahead of Brennan??

Why would it be silly?? We nearly won both the league and cup this season and the tail was woeful at times. This seasons team average is so close to the team building from this season if its similar it’s more than doable emil wojdylo King rew doyle dan t edwards rew really found his feet at the back end of the season should push on somewhat next year and someone like wojdylo has huge upside potential on a 5 point assessed average. It proved towards the end of year the top two and king score enough there’s not too much pressure on the second strings and reserves to score big which with less pressure they all started picking up points.

Mad that they were able to “sign” vissing and him not ride a meeting

Fairplay to Sheffield rode hard in tough conditions, track got better again late meeting when the rain eased. witches can hold their heads high, battles all year and lost the grand final by 4 points with the same side they started with.

It’s not various reasons - in both cases it’s rain pretty simple really

Of course it has to do with the track, the tracks soaking wet, there’s a reason we have rains offs in speedway

One crash on Tuesday…caused by a lock up in first bend - which can happen if a rider makes a mistake on any condition track.

Yep Danny just got swallowed up alright

And there’s your answer - because it’s fuc7ing dangerous riding on this track in these conditions absolute joke of a final

Racing in this rain is a joke, why move Monday if you’re just gonna ride in pouring rain Thursday anyway haha what a spectacle for Sheffield fans, Ipswich fans and neutrals

Especially when Adam Ellis who he came in for is a very good at ippo. Obviously they didnt know when they made the changes they’d have us in both finals but gotta say Ellis and Kerr would’ve outscored holder and the two guests in the two Foxhall legs by probably 10 points

In fairness Hawkins concedes in his match report that the track was very tough last night - due to the bad weather Monday night track prep yesterday was very difficult. Louis said on the mic last night wasn’t his choice for the fixture to be moved to so any notion Ipswich doctored the track doesn’t hold weight, they’ve done the best they can in the situation that presented itself due to the weather conditions. As for lambert moaning, yep Hume should’ve been out, but in heat 1 he shouldn’t be moaning Emil was allowed back in after getting a huge shove from howarth and getting locked to lambert, frankly I think there’s probably only a handful of riders in the world in that moment that could’ve done what Emil did to avoid a huge huge crash, Robert lucky he wasn’t sat up in the diner yet he’s moaning Emil got back in the race?? also I liked Hawkins comment in his report that 13 out of 14 riders made the best of it and got stuck in and attacked the track in tough conditions…dunno who he was referring to? Any guesses hahahah weather was fine here the last couple of weeks btw and it’s wasn’t our meetings that hadn’t been fit in in time for the playoffs to be staged on the original dates. disappointed it’s not a bigger lead with Danyon throwing away points in several races but if you’d have offered any Ipswich fan an 18 point lead going into the second I’m sure we’d have all bitten your hand off for that.

I hope you’re bringing your bottle of good jus jus and not the bad luck bottle haha

Yeah as I say fits atm but depends on final season figures that may well increase. It currently fits with the 2.5 reductions, personally tho I think moving on from Erik to a younger up and comer on 5 average gives the team more scope for average improvement and upside.

It’s common sense that if you can’t use guests from another team in the playoffs then once you’ve guested for team in the playoffs you can’t then guest bud or another. Similarly it would make sense for this to supersede the 8 day rule meaning Lawson could ride for Sheffield in both the semi and final for example.

Ben’s the better rider right now but think Zach’s style and balance on the bike he has a higher ceiling career wise. A point less average wise too so a better fit for team building and went better than Ben at Foxhall this year. Our current team average isn’t much above 39, if that’s the same building limit next season will likely be a very similar looking side with just a couple of changes 1. Emil 2. z.cook/wojdylo/another new 5.00 3. King 4. Rew 5. Doyle 6. Hume/Dan T 7. Dan T/Joe T/Boughen/another

Nope

Be happy if we took zach cook to Ipswich in 2024, better style then his older brother imo, 10+3 & 5+2 in his two visits this season

I know you’re just a troll and I shouldn’t rise to it but Laguta has absolutely taken the P1$$ out of British speedway this year, turned up as and when he feels like, more than one occasion frankly he should’ve been handed a 28 day ban for withholding his services. Talented throttle jockey don’t get me wrong but his commitment to British speedway has no comparison to Emil and he’s shown the British fans a lack of respect imo

He’ll be at Ipswich

Anyway back to the speedway! Chris Louis you beauty, Doyle and Emil are box office and it’s been a joy to watch them all season, reaching the final after winning the cup the icing on the cake, stick that in ya pipe and smoke it lemon hahaha

Not really comparable in my book, one is bad luck the other a referee not doing his job properly doesn’t matter now anyway! Haha

Baileys point for heat 2 Thursday when he clearly wasn’t under power could now win belle vue the tie

Tbh Hume not the best at being shepherded, he’s fallen off with all three of king Doyle and Emil trying to team ride him home this season at Foxhall, he ends up riding faster than he can cope with
