Basher Posted December 5, 2019 Report Share Posted December 5, 2019 We all have our wants for the team next season, for seven rider we end up with, they may well not be who we wished for, but one thing is certain we will get behind them and give them our support, come on the witches! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps them old farmers north of the border relied on the old Suffolk Punch to get them fields ploughed. Latterly those Suffolk folk showed them Norfolk yokels how to drive them tractors cause they could not ride them four legged friends. Mechanics hit Suffolk first but the ripple effect eventually went north of Diss. Can’t see how else the reputation arose. A bit of a debate over the sugar beet but in reality all is even. Norfolk farms grow sh... and Suffolk boys dish it out. A draw as far as one can see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bash Posted December 6, 2019 Report Share Posted December 6, 2019 He didn't state which week. They must have some riders signed so why can't they announce them. 2 teams completed and we still haven't announced anyone. Good for the season ticket sales.

Arch Stanton Posted December 6, 2019 Report Share Posted December 6, 2019 Clearly having the same problems as 12 months ago. Desperately searching for that elusive #1 and coming up short, again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Falcon1983 Posted December 6, 2019 Report Share Posted December 6, 2019 To be fair the witches are one of the most supported clubs in the league, quite a consistent gate, big turnout for cup finals or play off finals and to top if off have some good sponsors Surely this puts the club in a better fiscal position to sign a number 1 of a high standard IF they can find a rider to come and ride here So if one does not come in it's a lack of ambition on the promotion, here is hoping....

The fact that Ipswich were a top 4 side virtually all season long and made the Play Off Final it would suggest ambition isn’t lacking. Everyone wrote them off before a wheel was turned this year so it would be foolish to do the same again imho. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baldyman Posted December 6, 2019 Report Share Posted December 6, 2019 Does seem strange that we share a sponsor with Sheffield and they can pull off Pedersen, but we cant get anyone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Err ... except that wasn’t the point that I answered, which was whether Ippo could sign a good number one. They didn’t this year and don’t seem to have done so yet for next year.

Racin Jason 72 Posted December 6, 2019 Report Share Posted December 6, 2019 Remember Ipswich speedway is a stand alone business. It’s not a tax avoidance toy like some teams maybe. if the figures don’t stack up at the end of the season it will not continue. of course I want a winning team but not at all costs. Because once gone it’s difficult to get back. Rye house lakeside and Workington etc 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bash Posted December 6, 2019 Report Share Posted December 6, 2019 If you can’t respect the posters and just keep giving insults and name calling just jog on and stop posting it’s getting boring. We are talking about the Ipswich team or lack of at the moment and you are adding nothing to it 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
