Ipswich 2014

hmmm Has Louis messed up by signing Worrall, as it seems that he will be doubling down and Belle Vue fixtures will take priority....... :neutral:

Many PL sides will have the same problem with the shift on the ruling.

 

It has to be right that the owning club gets priority though.

 

Better to have him for 24 out of 28 than not at all I say.

I am sure, with so many in the same 'boat' the fixtures will be compiled with this in mind.

4 meetings? Could be more than that......2 home and 2 away in the EL so depending on the fixture list:

 

 

2 x Thursday (Belle Vue @Swindon) (either Ipswich home matches or Redcar/Sheffield away)

 

On a friday the Witches could be at Edinburgh / Plymouth / Scunthorpe / Somerset

2 x Friday ( Belle Vue @ Lakeside) 2 x Friday (Belle Vue @ Coventry)

 

On a Saturday the Witches would be away at Berwick / Rye House / Workington

2 x Saturday (Belle Vue @ Eastbourne)

2 x Saturday ( Belle Vue @ Leicester)

 

Thats possibly 10 meetings out of the 28 or 36% of the matches!

 

Suppose we will see......................... :neutral:

But thats the problem, lots will be in this "boat" but now there are different rules, at least before it was the PL had priority and everyone knew that, now its the club that "owns" the rider which is fair but what if the rider is owned by one club and needed by another 2?

eg:

Richie Worrall - Belle Vue (EL) have priority over Ipswich (PL)

Cameron Heeps - Ipswich (PL) would have priority over an EL club

Josh Auty - assuming he signs for Birmingham again (EL) also signed for Scunthorpe (PL) But who takes priority as i believe "owned" by Coventry!? :oops:

On a different note, I see Manzares won a meeting in Australia, beating rohan and Doyle in the final, yes it was on a small track, but beat some good riders

I dont do Twitter but was told a couple of days ago he had tweeted that he had agreed a PL.

 

But where?.....

I'd have Lanham an Newcastle.

 

Rides Brough Park very well and pretty dependable away.

I hope Leigh gets sorted out soon.

 

The problem for him (and many others) is he is in that funny average range. It always seems to be that 6-7 type rider that juggled.

According to a very reliable source, the Witches 1-7 is already in place.

 

Just a matter of when the club decide to announce it!

.

At the moment any news from foxhall would be good

If both the above are correct then either Adam isnt in or dont play poker with Jonny!!

 

Personally I hope Jonny is good at poker.

Does Richie Worrall qualify for a British reduction?

 

On Belle Vue thread they are saying(hopeing) he does for EL, so you would think if that was the case then he would qualify for PL reduction. Edited by Tom Thumb

I expect the team to be announced this coming week, so that season tickets can be sold at the supporters club AGM. Just checked my cheque book stubs and I wrote out the cheque on 12-12-12, which if memory serves me correctly is where I paid last year.
