Arch Stanton Posted April 26, 2022 Author Report Share Posted April 26, 2022 Crowds make a huge difference. We lost at home to Peterborough, the track and racing were poor, but I still kind of enjoyed it because of the numbers there and the atmosphere. We could go from one extreme to the other on Thursday though! One of the best non bank holiday attendances in years to one of the worst..

Falcon1983 Posted April 26, 2022 Report Share Posted April 26, 2022 So Klindt is 7.43 so if money wasn't an issue and they could talk Hansen to come over.... So you could go 1. Jason Doyle 8.96 2. Troy Batchelor 5.67 3. Nicolai Klindt 7.43 4. Eric Riss 5.08 5. Danny King 7.76 6. Mads Hansen 4.00 7. Anders Rowe/Danyon Hume Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arch Stanton Posted April 26, 2022 Author Report Share Posted April 26, 2022 (edited) Don’t think Klindt is interested in the UK currently. Sure I read comments from him over the winter saying as much. Things change though I suppose. Edit: ignore that, just read the other thread about klindt’s availability.

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 Yes klindt fits,,, just get rid of two riders,,, simple,,, just make sure they are both australian,,, a new euro rider to join him would be okay,,, ask poole/Peterborough how to spot a good one Edited April 26, 2022 by Baldyman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baldyman Posted April 26, 2022 Report Share Posted April 26, 2022 I think Ipswich have a cunning plan though,,,, don't make any changes,,, lose a few meetings,, then say can't make changes till 25 percent,, then say they have been looking and spent hours on the phone, but there isn't anyone,,,,,then team stays the same,,, Louis and Hawkins and golf club happy. Then a couple of floppers can be signed on again for next season due to them being on bargain averages Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coincidence that Klindt has now made himself available with Lynn looking for a rider around that average? Could be putting 2+2 and coming up with 5 but I wouldn’t be surprised if this deal is already done. Especially as I’m convinced Louis wouldn’t have been looking for changes after 3 meetings but we’ll see. If he does go to Lynn, I don’t think they’re any worse off than they are with Iversen, possibly even stronger. They’ll be a contender.

He has become available because his Polish club have dropped him,,, he has now got a lower division Polish team,, meaning he can race in another league if he so wishes 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arch Stanton Posted April 26, 2022 Author Report Share Posted April 26, 2022 Cheers Baldy. Still think he’ll be at Lynn pretty quickly. Just can’t see Louis changing the team after 3 meetings, even if the rules allow. As things stand, Lynn are the only club that have a vacancy to fill and he fits perfectly. Odds on.

Louis is often too nice,, I totally agree. Would be such a shame to see the fans stay away if the team isn’t competitive after that crowd we saw a couple of weeks ago. The potential is huge here at Ipswich, give the fans a team that can genuinely challenge for the title and they’d be rewarded with gate receipts. I know you could say that about every club, but we remain one of the best if not THE best, supported clubs in the league. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baldyman Posted April 26, 2022 Report Share Posted April 26, 2022 There will be a fair few missing this week from what I've seen. What's not going to help is,, first league meeting against a strengthened Belle Vue,, lose that and it will be a case of here we go again. Me personally I would at least try and strengthen,, pull off the win against belle Vue,, totally different story 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cowboy cookie returns? Posted April 29, 2022 Report Share Posted April 29, 2022 If this side doesn't deliver then Hawkins has to go as team manager, after all this is his side the riders he wanted to work with & more importantly the riders that wanted to work for him.
