Weird how so many Belle Vue fans are bothered by the Ipswich team. Seems like most fans of the other clubs appreciate some good team building, and just wish their own clubs could field a similar team.... not Belle Vue. A lot of jealousy coming from the NSS.
As an Oxford fan, last night was a pretty tough - but not unexpected - watch. A lot of work to do for the Spires, but a lot of wiggle room with points if they can find the right rider.

Sorry, I am not a fan, how dare you!!
I can assure you that I report every pass irrespective of where it happens on the track even when there are many of them (see heat 8 last week).
it takes a lot to annoy me, but you have managed to achieve it.
I should just ignore it. The majority of speedway fans surely just appreciate anybody that takes time out from their own evening to send updates for the rest of us. On behalf of them, thank you.

Can only see a home win personally, although a lot depends which Cameron Heeps turns up. A few of the Oxford riders (Masters, Knudsen, Jenkins and Killeen) have already ridden the track this season, which should help. Looking forward to seeing Mitch McDiarmid - arrives with enormous potential, so let's see what he's capable of.

They have zero shame. Arsebelle, SUPERARSE, Rob B, Phil(drink those tears)TheAce, and the biggest tool of all “Ouch”. Undoubtedly the biggest collection of absolutely whoppers from one club on this entire forum. Horrible lot!
Can you imagine Belle Vue and Poole in the same league? *shudders*

I will not take back one word of what i said. We all know about what translation problems can occur. If he( or she) can’t be bothered to read what is being posted by them then i suggest they don’tpost on here- post on X where anything goes !!
@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!

Say hello to Francis Gusts. Just been confirmed as the last Spires rider for 2025.
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"

Can see Heeps and Knudsen leaving Oxford at somepoint in a double change to accommodate Nicholls and Jody Scott,that for me would put Oxford around the play off mark atleast.
That’s almost certainly what will happen.

I said the whole team.was over rated and they would not make the play offs and Magic was not a big hitting number one..of course the normal suspects came on here saying they prove me wrong ..how did that end up ?. I also remember people saying how Lewis Kerr would be the best reserve in the league..lol ..The one think I've pick up from.the Oxford promotion is that have no intention of trying to win this league as last team changes or lack of them and now this side has shown..Now we got the same this year with the signing of Crash Bandicoot.Greg Hancock etc may have 35 but we're still active and at the top of there game something that Crash is not .
The punctuation is hurting my eyes!

He had a full season in 2024 and was decidedly average.
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.

Now that Jody hasn't signed for the senior team and I now know that Luke is eligible for the NDL, I'll go for:
1. Luke Killeen 9.87
2. Senna Summers 3.44
3. Ashton Vale 6.17
4. Rhys Naylor 4.13
5. Jason Garrad 8.36
6. 3.03
7. Declan Killeen 3.00
Pure speculation as I don't know why Jody wasn't included in the cheetahs. I'd also love to see a team with both Killeens in.
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.

13.4 I think.
Dudek on an 8 and a 5 point newcomer to start at reserve?
They spoke to Dudek, but nothing came of it. Last I heard it was between Madsen and Kubera - but nothing concrete.

I don't want to discriminate because of age. If he wants to try & make it as a rider, he has every right to. Same as 30 somethings Luke Crang or Jason Garrad etc.
Not a criticism. Just a general comment that he really will be delighted.

There's loads of 3 point riders who guested in the NDL or rode in Nora matches to fill reserve spaces if needed: Owen Booth, Max Broadhurst, Billy Budd, Josh Couzins, Kieran Douglas, Jacob Fellows, Lee Harrison, Nathan Hargrave, Wayne Hutt, Chris Laidlaw, James Laker, Rhys Laker, Nick Laurence, Eli Meadows, Sam Ward, Morgan Williams, Charlie Wood & Sam Woods.
He will be delighted you’ve included him on this list.

And his away meetings when he was Lynn brought a haul of 14 points from 3 meetings at an average of 5.09… not exactly 2021 World Champion level…
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.

Jenkins cut his teeth at Foxhall, doing many many laps after meetings before signing for Mildenhall. There’s a few reasons he wanted a return. Sharing the pits with a couple of world class riders has obvious benefits. Secondly, he started the season poorly and by his own admission, fully expected the old tin tac. He was supported, backed and helped through his early struggles instead of being discarded. That goes an awful long way with riders and isn’t forgotten. Thirdly, and the main argument put forward by the rider and club to get this move done, was sponsorship. He has gained some very good local sponsorship over the past 12 months that he’ll only receive whilst riding for Ipswich.
It wasn’t a straightforward move because the only way Jenkins was returning to Ipswich was via the rising star role because the number 6 position was always going to be taken by Dan Thompson. There was uncertainty as to whether he was going to be eligible for a return to the rising star list but once it was confirmed he was, Ipswich and Jenkins himself, put forward their case to remain at Ipswich which was accepted. Once that was settled, Jenkins wasn’t going to be riding for anyone else.
You can choose to believe that or not, but that’s the top and bottom of it.
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.

An Oxford fan talking to Jenkins, at Oxford, is obviously going to be told what they want to hear. He’s not going to tell an Oxford supporter that he didn’t want to be there is he. The lad wanted a return to Ipswich (and has stated his reasons for it) and dug his heels in to get his move.
But an Ipswich fan definitely isn't going to be told the same thing, right?

Yep, I agree. Although it needs to start with another heat leader and then build other changes around that. If a Leon Madsen-type signing can be made, then the other changes can work around. Could also do a lot worse than Dan Gilkes based on how he rode for the Cheetahs the other night - surely only a matter of time before he's fitted in somehow.
