More than previous seasons and I never thought I’d be saying that Me too - overall it has been a thoroughly enjoyable start to the season I dont generally go along with calls for lots of changes but I can see the reasoning for various concerns currently being voiced and just because we are doing better than expected doesnt make holding off on any possible move the right choice Equally there is a lot to be said with showing faith and lotalty where you feel it is warranted and only those within the inner circle will really know the score on that 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baldyman Posted May 23, 2019 Report Share Posted May 23, 2019 Trouble is it's always us showing faith,, and whilst others are showing less faith, they are getting stronger,, whilst we will be getting weaker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bash Posted May 23, 2019 Report Share Posted May 23, 2019 Thing is our team is built around strong reserves and we need to make changes before Cam & Jake move into the top 5 otherwise we could struggle as we lose our scoring potential from reserve. Just because a riders goes to reserve doesn't mean he will suddenly start winning races. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure when either reserve will get a new average and because it’s done on rolling averages they could stay in that position for quite a while longer. Gone are the days when current form dictates a new average. New averages even have Bomber increasing his average! Go figure! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just because a riders goes to reserve doesn't mean he will suddenly start winning races. It mostly does. Any of the Ipswich top 5 dropping to reserve would clean up. Ipswich fans really need to get used to the fact that whomever ends up at No 1 is going to struggle in comparison.. and whoever is at 3 & 4 is going to score very well.

Gavan Posted May 23, 2019 Report Share Posted May 23, 2019 Belle Vue is the only place I wouldn’t feel confident going Harris ,Lawson, Heeps, Allen and KP don’t seem to go well at the NSS where as King and Bellego I’d be less worried about Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arch Stanton Posted May 24, 2019 Author Report Share Posted May 24, 2019 Reruns version of Monday’s BT sport meeting heat 9. Got the riders names right at least but poor work from the camera man who missed the crucial part of the whole race! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Falcon1983 Posted May 24, 2019 Report Share Posted May 24, 2019 Is there any positives left in British speedway other than an exciting crop of youngsters in the system who will have no sport to race in, in the not too distant future?

Racin Jason 72 Posted May 24, 2019 Report Share Posted May 24, 2019 Does anyone have a recording of the BT Sport coverage of this meeting that they could put on a dvd.

While reading the article in this week's speedway star regarding Harry Mcgurk, the same thought sprung immediately to mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
