TTT

Why would Ipswich back out of a deal for Emil when a deal is closer than it's ever been all winter?

No chance at 6k a night when you've got to splash out big money on Doyle's 15 point maximums almost every week. Also Ipswich are making rapid progress with Emil. Polish press are now reporting that the FIM are considering to give Russian's neutral licenses that allow them to compete all over Europe. Considering means they're on the verge of backing down and eventually they will do a full U-Turn before the season starts.

We'd know what's left, Too many points to a point where we cant use them all lol.

Don't think we'll get a read off the next two announcements tbh considering it's going to be Hans & Richie.

100%

Agree, nothing makes sense tbh. We'll only find that answer out when the 1-7 is revealed (Chris Holder situation)

3.38 if it's only -25% (2022 RS scheme) 3.30 if he gets a further 2.5% off (Brit reduction)

I really hope so, Andersen needs carrying at 2. Nicki P or a GP rider are the only ones who'd be able to carry him imo.

Not at 6k a night. 156k outlay and that's just on the league fixtures and KO Cup SF tie, If the club makes the KO Cup Final and the Play-Off Grand Final then a deal rises to 192k, If the club chooses to use him in each round of the Pairs then it's 210k Too steep for a British club.

Yes he'll be in if Tomalin has full control. Won't have to work with Buster at all then.

I thought they found one in the end?

Must be signing a sponsorship deal for the GP's imo.

Surely Tungate has to be in then.

In at 6:00am, 12:00pm and 6:00pm Out at 9:00am, 3:00pm and 9:00pm

Scott -> You know something Bartosz, The Peterborough Panthers are a great club to ride for in England, I highly recommend that you should sign for them in 2023. Bartosz -> Hmmm maybe I will

Not at 6k a night. 24 league fixtures as well as the KO Cup Semi-Final tie would make the deal be worth 156k minimum.

Well I've been wrong all winter but I don't like sitting on the fence...........I'm saying Holder 100% out for two key reasons. 1. Would Buster honestly go 2.30 under the limit risking attendances to drop after 1 month (If we start poorly) just so he can work with a rider he doesn't like? 2. Chris Holder got released for attitude reasons along with Troy Batchelor at KL and I think Buster got Auty and THJ in as replacements which speaks volumes, That's a case of get them out by all means necessary even if adequate replacements aren't available. Buster still owns the club, So he gets to have the final say on matters and I just cant picture Buster approving any move for Holder considering Buster will still be present around the Showground in 2023, I'm not even sure if Holder would want to work with Buster either because he's not exactly desperate to earn a living in the UK when he's got good money contracts in Poland & Sweden.

Absolutely not, The thought of gloating wouldn't even cross my mind (Just kidding) Honestly if Panthers we're to end up with Holder and Ipswich were to end up with Emil then I think they'd both end up with GSA's in the same ball park (If they stay injury free).

It's complicated.

100% agree with you.

Hawkins must be referring to one of two things imo because the fans have the right averages for Cook and Holder. 1. Rew on a 5.00 rather than the 4.00 reported elsewhere due to Keynan riding in the Danish top flight as well as riding in Poland (Nothing official in the Press Release about his average) or 2. Hawkins is hinting that you've signed a 6th rider already so you don't have enough points or team places left to fit them in.

Yes Michael I'd love to join the best club in the country again, 3.5k a meeting sounds good to me.

Have you been reading Hawkins Tweets lol? I follow Ritchie on Twitter and I saw some Tweets yesterday from him and he was having a back and forth with a couple of Ipswich fans over averages. 7.16 is still valid.

Our management really wouldn't take a risk by going 2.30 under the limit imo because crowds will drop after half a dozen meetings and the club would lose a fortune. If the final three is Holder, Worrall and Andersen then people walk away before May and they'll use their money of Gas/Energy bills. Start the season with a double header against Ipswich led by Doyle & Emil so that's back-to-back defeats. Then after that it's a double header against Leicester and we've got no chance of winning at Leicester or winning the Bonus Point considering how strong Leicester's line-up looks around Beaumont Park, Lose at Home to Leicester (Possible when they've got Harris & Lawson) and that'll take us to 0-4 on the season with 0 bonus points. Finally to complete the fixture list in April we'd have a double header against Belle Vue and then a trip to Sheffield. (0-7 and 0 bonus points is likely)
