But again looks like my opinion was wrong - good luck for the season across in sunny Cumbria! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Halifaxtiger Posted May 29, 2017 Report Share Posted May 29, 2017 Really ...and you think Ipswich will , we spanked you good & proper last night , we aren't in the radar and we're forecast to finish with the wooden spoon so I'm chuffed to bloody bits how we are doing , and with meetings in hand over other teams , your comment could come back to bite you on the arse !! Try that great big thing called social media .. I take it you know what it is ย I'd be surprised if anyone thought the Comets would finish bottom. It was clear they had a rider capable of beating anyone, anywhere and one of the best reserves. That's usually a pretty good combination. ย With Proctor getting going and Campton proving a lot of the doubters wrong, if they can get Sarjeant scoring a few points they'll certainly be a strong candidate for the play offs in what is, almost without exception, a highly competitive league. ย What they really need is a few more through the gate. With an attractive, entertaining team and some pretty good racing they deserve it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With an attractive, entertaining team and some pretty good racing they deserve it. when team was announced as" building within a budget to secure the future" i was more than happy with the team i didnt expect us to win the league but also knew it was a team that if riders rode to there ability they would and are surprising a few unfortunatly the rider we needed to ride to there ability was adam roynon who has been dropped obviously adams bikes were not fast enough obviously mason has upped his game to the shock of many away supportors thomas is coming good and ty is doing bits and pieces but i still think theres more to come from ty the only member of the team im worried about is james sarjent but hes looking better on track just needs to learn how to gate when the tapes move rather than before they move 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spanner47 Posted May 29, 2017 Report Share Posted May 29, 2017 North and South leagues two divisions of 8 more than enough riders for that. Certainly not enough rides unless we keep doubling up in place. And which two tracks would be booted out? As we all know, Speedway is all about self preservation in this Country.

Mad Max Posted May 29, 2017 Report Share Posted May 29, 2017 am I right in thinking you are not a Witches fan MM? Just for the record.... If the question means are the Witches the team I support then no they are not. ย If you are asking if I have a dislike of Ipswich then that is also no! ย Just for the record 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CookieIpswich Posted May 29, 2017 Report Share Posted May 29, 2017 Take the best facilitated tracks with the biggest fan base, scunthorpe only get 400 people for example ย One big league of 12 with regionalised national leagues is better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spanner47 Posted May 29, 2017 Report Share Posted May 29, 2017 Fully agree Cookie, but this is British Speedway, so the minority will always win over the majority. Once the sky deal ends and we lose more riders, a 12 team league would be feasible, but where do Newcastle, Berwick, Redcar etc end up? You know as well as I do, it will never happen.

spanner47 Posted May 29, 2017 Report Share Posted May 29, 2017 (edited) is there a sky deal??? Still coughing up at the moment, just can't afford to show it. Hence the Div 1 clubs didn't plead poverty when theyโ pulled the plug at the start of the season, and they can still afford to pay Lindgren, Doyle etc for a bit longer. That's also why they agreed to let BT show it for nothing. Edited May 29, 2017 by spanner47 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dontforgetthefueltapsbruv Posted June 3, 2017 Report Share Posted June 3, 2017 I agree actually Scotsman. ย Yes we will all give a bit of banter when it happens but at least it shows they are bothered. ย What I dont like is the opposite when riders obviously dont give a s#!t and just give up 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
