Great move and a great time to make it. That's ipswich in the play offs now.

Straight shoot out between BV and Wolves, and Peterborough are going to have a big say in which team makes it.

Must beat Poole at home this Thursday. Ideally would have liked Iversen to have a meeting or two at Foxhall before such a crucial fixture, but hopefully his experience and quality should still show. 

Very very interesting meeting at Foxhall on Thursday and I’d expect a bumper crowd. Last week of the kids holiday, crucial fixture that could make or break our play off hopes, and a star signing making his debut!

as well as NKI :D

So were Ippo on an average reducing exercise to get Iversen in tonight?

Fair play to them for recognising they wouldn’t win without a change.

Iversen makes them massively stronger, but losing strength at number 7. Sarj will be worst number 7 since Aarnio.

Ipswich signed Niels K Iversen and James Sarjeant to replace Pieszczek & Kennett.

Buster going for it. NKI don't come cheap.. Pitty all the Panthers fans blaming him for everything from how the riders ride to if the suns out. It must get back to him. .

I know Lynn are as good as out of it, and not happy, but fair play to Buster on this move.

I don't know the deal between Buster and his 2 new clubs, but Lynn has suffered  this season because of it.. 

I'm going to look silly if KP is fitted into Lynn's team somehow though ;)

The changes will be made on the current (August) averages - so no they weren’t.

Wouldn’t surprise me if KP ends up at Poole. 

Just because we have brought in NKI doesn’t guarantee that Harris will come good. We really need to take maximum points from our two remaining home fixtures

It can't get any worse than tonight.   I may even go Thursday now. Could take iversen a few races to get going, think last time he raced foxhsll was Risager testimonial.

Bold move at the 11th hour. Something certainly had to be done but I wasn't expecting that!

Will make it very interesting finish to the season now.....

Glad to see we’ve made a move to get a top end rider in, think it’s a tough move on both KP and kennett who were both doing their jobs at the bottom end when certain others haven’t been!

i guess the decision has been made with a view that if bomber can find some sort of form come the play offs then his best is lightyears beyond his current showings and he could still play a big part....

for me however I’d have dropped one of the two reserves and bomber, this would’ve allowed more to play with for the second reserve coming in and a potential stronger reserve than sarj, Pickering perhaps?? Sarj can go very well at Ipswich tho so hopefully he can find some of that  form, also puts Jake back down to reserve which is a bonus

Welcome to niels and sarj tho, hope this proves a master stroke

Fair enough. Just looks really odd timing tho to lose heavily and then add a top rider within hours.

Apart from a win at home to a very depleted Peterborough side we have been awful so i dont think last nights result had any bearing
