I'm not expecting you to appreciate the irony of your last post, but I'm putting it here for everybody else to enjoy

You'll have a nice day watching Ipswich lift the trophy? Strange!

Can you imagine Belle Vue and Poole in the same league? *shudders*

@TTT can you post any further updates in Polish please? Don't worry about any of us, but at least one person who thinks he's the forum king will be happy.

It's better late than never. Perhaps you should have re-read you post as well...which is considerably shorter. Stop having a go @TTT, he posted an update (which perhaps he should have read, although it's pretty obvious it's a translation issue), he's now edited it and has been very courteous about it, which is more than can be said of you!

A good signing, but still think the Spires look a little weak overall. Should be competitive at least. Interesting that Jamie Courtney said this in the release: "At the end of October last year we believed that the Spires team was in place however, a couple of unexpected complications meant that I had to go back to the drawing board"

That’s almost certainly what will happen.

The punctuation is hurting my eyes!

Great shout!

It was in 2023, not 2024, and he averaged 8.21 across both spells at King's Lynn and Peterborough. Just 0.11 behind Dan Bewley's 2023 average. Now while it's not what you'd probably expect from a former world champion, it's a bit better than 'decidedly average' in my opinion. It's also a higher average than any Oxford Spires rider managed last year, so he wouldn't be a bad signing.

I'm sure many fans did. I've always thought Phil was on the money, so had no reason to doubt him. But not everybody gets things right all the time, and things also change. What's your point exactly?

You better ask @Phil The Ace that. He started the rumours back in September. In other words - no - they're not the same.

Jody Scott was part of the Cheetahs plans up until when Scott Nicholls was ruled out. When that happened they had to have a re-think (Knudsen a late signing and Heeps retained - as opposed to Nicholls and Scott). He'll definitely be in the Chargers team.

They spoke to Dudek, but nothing came of it. Last I heard it was between Madsen and Kubera - but nothing concrete.

Yep, Gilkes riding for the Cheetahs in 2025

Dan Gilkes, Jonas Knudsen and Mitch McDiarmid.

Not a criticism. Just a general comment that he really will be delighted.

He will be delighted you’ve included him on this list.

As Janowski showed this season, it can take time to get to grips with British tracks/set-ups. Not saying he would average 10, but I’m sure he would develop into a good heat leader if given a full season. Anyway, he’d certainly be a better option than no decent heat leader, which looking the most likely now.

I don't need to choose to believe it or not, because I've spoken to him.... so know the truth. As you're involved with one of his main sponsors, I'm sure you could do the same instead of writing two lengthy paragraphs of hearsay. No reason he wouldn't tell you what he told me, I'm sure.

But an Ipswich fan definitely isn't going to be told the same thing, right?

As hard as that might be to believe, that is exactly what happened. Ask Jordan, he'll confirm it. Sadly, it's hardly the weirdest thing Pete Shroeck has done. Nobody is saying Jordan isn't happy, because he is. Just wasn't his first choice. But second choices can still be great.

If he's part of his biggest sponsor, maybe he can just ask him personally then? Then he'd know the truth as well, instead of posting inaccuracies on here. But hey ho, each to their own.

I didn't say anything this time, other than ask for your source - which is somewhat lacking still? Care to elaborate?

You're source for this information? I know JJ personally, and I'd love to know where you think you know this from (and so would he I'd imagine).
