No, it's fact, Morrisey fan has been told about 2 riders signing so far, and one of those from mick. This should be interesting to see if he has been telling porkys again. What about smolinski?

I was thinking more of a different material which would cope better with a bit of rain.

Speedway needs to start moving with the times if it wants to carry on existing, maybe different tire tyre fo really wet tracks, maybe even a new type of material to be used on tracks, but whatever ideas someone comes up with, someone will come up with a reason not to, which is one of the reasons the sport/entertainment is on the way down.

You are right, and that's before the days of roll off goggles and dirt deflectors. You often see old pictures of riders with goggles round their necks so they can carry on racing. I've also raced karts in the rain at 120 inches from walls, why? Cos the fans had turned up to watch some racing, so that's what we did.

I think it's about time that track covers were invested in, surely they would have saved plenty of meetings, and would pay for themselves in the end.

Okay that's fair enough, it was just a thought, how about 2 matches on one night? Or an afternoon and evening match for those that can

I know teams would lose their home advantage, but couldn't some teams use other tracks to help complete their fixtures?

And people say this is a professional sport. It's just a big joke.

Not unhappy with the Ipswich team, but not happy with the people that run it, never trying to improve it. It's a great team on paper.

Gino manzares has had a good first season.

Not very good filming then?

He didn't pull any back all night. And there were a few

Cameron was back to his early season form again tonight. If it wasn't for his blinding jump start in 14 it would have been a very poor night for him. He just doesn't seem to be able to string a couple of good meetings together.

Credit to shadders and his fellow supporters for turning up and watching this. Wasn't one of the reasons for getting rid of matt his missing of meetings? I remember some fans voicing their opinions on a rider missing meetings due to other commitments, let's hope you don't have to many more Thursday meetings. This meeting really is now going to be totally one sided. Just hoping Kennett and the Jasons can put on a good show.

Can only see a comfortable 20 point win for Ipswich, but then again I thought that about Glasgow. Updates for me again, so hoping for plenty of from the gate 5.1

Jack young, Peter Craven, Lee Richardson, plenty of names could be used.

Surely all Edinburgh would have done is finish top to the qualifying group. Having said that, I do believe a piece of silverware or prize money should be presented to the winner of the qualifying table, then maybe more teams may put an effort into winning it. Surely it can't be that hard to find a sponsor for say 20 thousand pounds.

I used to think it was a sport, but with some of its stupid rules and some teams not doing all they can to win, now I just see it as an entertainment business. I'm only talking about league speedway,Iindividual speedway I still class as a sport.

I would have thought the idea of the play offs is to keep some clubs from going out of business. If a club is say currently in eighth but can still make the play off, then surely that helps to keep fans interested and turning up. If the the old system the team again in say eighth was out of the title race after a couple of months, would all the fans keep turning up? No they wouldn't. So they are there to help the lower placed teams in business in my eyes.

Ipswich will be one of the 6 . Maybe not because we been good enough for some of the season, but because we have the points on the and will not have to try and play catch up with meetings, plus we have a few meetings coming up that we could easily win. We just haven't been affected with rain offs as bad as some other teams.

I tend not to use the food outlets, so I will have to pass on that one I'm afraid

So when was the meeting postponed? Still nothing on Facebook.

Oh right, the only thing from Ipswich on Facebook was about tonight's meeting, no mention of rain off. Nice to see they are keeping the fans informed. Glad I didn't bother travelling.

Only 3 and half hours to start time, and nothing on here. I take it I've got the right day?

I'm not as convinced as some about our current excellent form. Yes in the last 2 meetings we have won comfortably, but i don't think the opposition has been as good as it could have been. Now if we get a point out of tonight's meeting, then I will then agree with the others that we have suddenly hit top form.
