Hopefully Richard Lawson will be receiving some intensive rehabilitation from Wroclaw's medical team to get him ready for tonight's meeting 😁

Will Wroclaw be buying Ipswich a new blade? 😉

At last! This must have been the "Wow!" news that Rob Godfrey was referring to back at the beginning of the season, it took a little longer to be announced than expected but a massive well done to Rob and his management team 😉😁 Without wishing to pour water on Ippo's flame, one swallow does not a summer make and without similar link ups with the remaining 5 PL clubs, and as we've seen this season a 6 team PL isn't big enough, it crucially needs buy in from other Polish clubs and not just with UK clubs. In my opinion the Poles need to ditch their U24 league as it has sucked in riders from across the globe with stars in their eyes and leaving their domestic leagues dry of talent. It'd be far more beneficial for these younger riders to be riding in their own domestic leagues than missing meetings to attend practice sessions or sit in the pits and get no rides. Ipswich do seem to still be very much a lone figure at them moment and for all the call of other clubs likely to follow they are still wantonly and willingly staging fixtures when they know that riders will be missing due to "commitments" elsewhere... and that certainly isn't the Polish way.

Benidorm?

All "rules" have been dropped this season, any rider can miss any meeting whenever they want with any reason, or no reason, with no repercussions at all... unless your name is Edward Kennett.

Does Lawson know what injury he has?

It only took somebody 9 years to realise I might know what I'm talking about 🤔😉😁 #negativebellend

Yes, in Poland... becoming more of a regularity on a Thursday night.

In Poland?

Sorry... I was getting ahead of myself 😁

Is that it!

Wot no Nicolai? Has he dropped himself again 😂

Unfortunately nobody... will they ever learn?

SHEFFIELD: Jack Holder R/R, Anders Rowe, Chris Holder, Leon Flint, Josh Pickering, Jye Etheridge, Luke Killeen. LEICESTER: Ryan Douglas, Drew Kemp, Nick Morris, Dan Thompson R/R, Sam Masters, Kyle Howarth, Joe Thompson. DT confirmed as giving the Lions a miss! As will I 👎🏻 What a tin pot sport it has become in this country, I'll save myself a packet and catch some z's watching Ippo on BSN 😴

Listening to Rohan Tungate being interviewed in Australia at the start of the year, when asked if he'd be back in the UK in 2026 he said he didn't know as there were a few issues still to be sorted from the 2025 season.

There goes the rest of the Speedway clubs in the UK 👋

No... but you can have Paco 😁

"a severe left ankle injury"

2nd? To be fair, they may need a local wild card if Fred ain't fit for this... but otherwise there's really no need for local wild cards especially in established Speedway nations who already have competitors in the event.

I thought he takes himself out of teams doesn't he? 🤔

I think he'll win it 👍🏻

UK doctors are great at issuing sick notes though, even for the slightest ailment 📝 👍🏻

He had a little episode with Peterborough/Torun back in the day but I think that was more down to the Peterborough promotion than him.

At least his stretcher is in Sheffield Colours... very on brand😂 A lot on here don't like the fella... I think he's great 👍
