  1. Same as go west... why west? Why not go east ? Maybe Ipswich should go east and look in a right field for a new signing...
  2. Rising stars have be sorted for weeks. So once it was known Wolves and Lynn keeping Flint and Edwards, rest fell into place . Yesterday both Leceister and Sheffield named theirs so Ipswich might as well release the news of theirs... Leceister 1st pick.... Thompson Peterborough 2nd pick.... Jenkins Ipswich 3rd pick... Thomas Sheffield 4th pick.... Gilkes Belle Vue last pick....
  3. He does but you would also think a team would be built to the points available, not 2 points under like this year.... So anything is possible
  4. Anyone riding at 2 will have a low ave having to follow home Doyle...
  5. Ipswich scored 892 points in 2022. Doyle scored 327 of those... so 37% great guess
  6. Average reduction time until August then and bring in a gp rider for a 4 pointer for the play offs Easily done ...just make sure he follows his teammate home for the 5-1 rather than winning the heat.
  7. Look at the demographic for the vast majority of speedway fans.... over 50 They are the ones with the extra money to spend so charging a couple of quid more won't really effect them.... its the rest of us that are effected. Everything is going up, (Isn't a tesco meal deal for 2 inc wine still £10? ) but that means something has to give. The entrance fee is not the only thing to look at when attending, also got the price of travel. Then there's food and drinks. All these having an increase soon mount up so all of a sudden its a £5 increase, maybe more and a family of 4 will stop going. My boy and I went this year and it was £20 for the both of us at Ipswich as they don't charge for u16s. So not too bad, but itfc match today would be £13 for us both... so if people attend both, easy to see which one they will drop if they have to. Any extras in life is about VFM... its not about whether something costs £20 or £100. Eg Is spending over £20 to watch British speedway in its current form VFM.... imo no Is spending £100 for 2 days away watching Polish speedway VFM... imo yes.
  8. Shouldn't he be returning it to where it came from?
  9. Has there been actual confirmation that riders are allowed to ride in Poland and 2 other leagues? Doyle has already signed up for Poland and Sweden....... Will it be another case of CL saying" well we would have signed him but then rules changed, but we did try, sorry but out of our control"
  10. Cycle speedway scoring. also means a rider excluded is punished for their exclusion. good idea... meaning it will never happen
  11. https://www.eadt.co.uk/sport/23108823.mike-bacon-ipswich-witches-2023-including-jason-doyle/
  12. That would have been 98... meeting started at 9.45pm I seem to recall. Witches hardly made a start all night and still thrashed the compost corner lot

  14. Reminds me of 2019 vs Ipswich.. The Witches were 8 up and then lost by 10. And look how that turned out.....

  16. Didnt Kings Lynn do that this year with Kildemand ?
  17. Can only see Nilsson for Pzedpelski being the only change really..... Top 6 - Zmarzlik Madsen Janowski Lindgren Lambert Bewley SGP challenge - Nilsson Holder Fricke Leaves 6 wildcards Dudek (tied on points with Bewley) Woffy (ex world champ) Vaculik (2022 SGP winner) Doyle (ex world champ) Thomsen ( 2022 SGP winner) Leaving 1 place "up for grabs" for either Michelsen / Lebedevs / Laguta Kubera did himself no favours being poor in challenge
  18. I cant see where the Witches will get a big win tonight, they have only reached 50 3 times this season. hoping for any win tbh, but Aces to win on agg
  19. Picture the scene... The meeting goes ahead in the rain, and heat 9 has just been raced. Riders come out for heat 10 where we all know once completed the meeting will be abandoned and result will stand with Sheffield leading. Then the air fence deflates all by itself... the highly trained Sheffield track staff are unable to fix the issue, the match has to be abandoned without a result as the curfew hits... If Carlsberg did speedway....
