Ipswich 2019

Wonder if they’ve felt a bit pressured in to naming a couple of riders that they consider would be in the team no matter what, and that the team still isn’t completely sorted?

Its not been the Chris Louis way to drip feed the signings. Once the seven are signed they’re normally announced. 

Wouldn’t be surprised to see the two named as King and Heeps. Always likely to be in the side no matter what IMO. We’ll see.

I  hope it means the whole 7 are in place but if it is 2 familiar faces then perhaps not

Not long to wait now!

I’m sure Chris said he didn’t want to start announcing riders until whole team was in place, perhaps they’ll all be announced over the course of the week leading up to Saturday when season tickets on sale at the stadium.

cautiously optimistic, hope he kicks it off with some new faces

One of the pitfalls of someone like Chris being on social media I suppose. A close friend who attended last Wednesday spoke to Chris personally and let’s just say, some of the abuse he’s received about selling the club to Chapman hasn’t been easy for him to read. Both he AND Hawkins have been badgered for team news for a few weeks now which makes me think maybe they’ve decided to release a couple of names to get a few people off their back. Could be totally wrong of course!

Lets hope for something Exciting tomorrow, because if it’s the two I mentioned, it could actually make matters worse and heighten The unease!

Chris was always gonna be in for some abuse by selling to Buster but it will pass no doubt, for the Suffolk fans it's like selling their soul but as long as the Louis are involved they'll be ok ......

Reckon it will be a Polish or Russian DUDE

Which could be MAGIC.  Or someone maybe from the LA Guta? 

But Mr Bacon thinks not though he was wrong about Hans of course due to a last minute change of Fairy tale. 

 

Drew possibly at Kent or IOW in the NL? Or have I missed his NL announcement?

Very happy to have some news 

A decent start to our team building naming the reserves first ;) (only kidding Danny)

Jake Allen is a bit of a coup for the Witches given fans of almost every team had him on their wish list

Now we just have to wait and see what Chris can conjur up to complete the side!

As in heatleaders most definitely. But Allen is a “big” signing IMO. He was on many people’s wish lists on here and will be a very handy rider at reserve. 

A really good signing, he is a guy who can improve i wanted him  at Swindon where he would of partnered Doyle.But Ipswich have a good signing here and i can see him challenging Auty/ Garrity for the number 1 spot at Scunthorpe also.

Good start, no surprises in Danny and let’s face it he doesn’t get beaten too much at Foxhall by many of the top boys in second league so should still bang points in from the middle order.

jake Allen as others have said was on most people’s wishlist - an early candidate for most improved rider, took a step forward last year and only looks like his trajectory will continue upwards
