He could have at least assured fans that there was going to be Speedway next season at Ipswich regardless of a buyer or not, I assume as he didn't that there won't, what a way to treat hundreds of loyal fans 👏

The fans that Mr Louis neglected to thank while just about name checking everybody else in his self absorbed statement?

They've not owned the company for 77 years, the family have been involved (rider, manager, promoter) for a decent portion of 55 years, he said 77 between them and many of those were overlap.

We could see the re-introduction of the Hokey-Cokey Cup... current holders Peterborough I believe 😂 -
To be fair, while everything in the garden wasn't rosey, it was at least just about sustainable (and I mean just about) with a tv deal, as soon as that rug was pulled the PL was dead. In the absence of any actual news and as you're a pretty reliable source... to die on the hill of BAU is actually more like suicide, clubs would have just fallen by the wayside as the season went on and I doubt the same number that started would have finished.

Yep saw all those sides with some great riders, the point is though Ippo went 2nd tier when they did... because it suited them, now it suits them to be top tier, as reigning champions and unfortunately, for Ipswich, they're on their own it seems (maybe with BV) -
