It is a short-term contract and he is included in their initial declaration. This is the extract from Belle Vue's website: 'AHEAD of the club’s first team event against Sheffield on Monday, March 28, Belle Vue have signed Australian racer Jake Allen on a short-term contract. But surely that is incompatible with the new transfer window rule on no changes before 25% of fixtures completed. Surely this can't be another new rule that hasn't been properly thought through 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woffy rides in Poland and Denmark and wouldn’t ride in the UK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

szkocjasid Posted April 25, 2022 Report Share Posted April 25, 2022 Can't understand why Ipswich aren't giving Danyon Hume as chance in the team? He outscored Rowe at Leicester on Saturday (Rowe's home track)! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Racin Jason 72 Posted April 25, 2022 Report Share Posted April 25, 2022 I’ve been going to foxhall since march 1985 so that’s 36 seasons and I’ve missed less than ten home meetings in all that time. normally I might miss a meeting as I’m away on holiday but I never choose to miss a home meeting however this Thursday I’m choosing not to go to foxhall. £23 for 15 heats and a likely home defeat. No thanks 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baldyman Posted April 25, 2022 Report Share Posted April 25, 2022 (edited) I never missed a single meeting home or away for 40 years,,, and as some know spannered for a rider in our last glory years, then a few years ago I missed a few,, then last year a few more,, and this year it will be even more,,, looks like even some of the most dedicated fans are now changing their ways Edited April 25, 2022 by Baldyman 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cowboy cookie returns? Posted April 25, 2022 Report Share Posted April 25, 2022 Even with a strong winning team it's very hard to justify £20 admission especially given the state of UK speedway. Bringing in Doyle I can understand the signing of Riss and the resigning King & starke. Possibly even Rowe however Heeps should have been nowhere near the Ipswich team this season.

No thanks I brought a season ticket this year for the first time ever because it represented a bit better value than it normally does, but I’m still not bothering with Thursday which is nothing more than a glorified practice session with nothing riding on the result. 11 minutes ago, Baldyman said: Lets make changes before its too late,, or other teams now realise they can Absolutely agree. Should never have been 2.10 under in the first place. Admit the mistake early and do something about it before the league starts next week. Edit: Even more so having just realised it’s Belle Vue visiting next week, a much stronger looking Belle Vue with their change. That looks a home defeat right from the get go!

Falcon1983 Posted April 26, 2022 Report Share Posted April 26, 2022 Does Klindt for Heeps actually fit? No transfers allowed until 25% of fixtures have been raced, but you can change your team before the league racing starts as its a separate competition to that of the league cup Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. Any replacement for Heeps up to and including 7.06 So an assessed 7 pointer could be accommodated, or someone from the championship on a converted average. Options there look non existent though. Roll the dice and try someone new? Edited April 26, 2022 by Arch Stanton Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spiegal Posted April 26, 2022 Report Share Posted April 26, 2022 Better when we had Bert Edwards or Junior Bainbridge 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
