I get your point too a degree but Kerr has done nothing for years now riding at Lynn, there has too be a point in the road where enoughs enough regardless of nationality 

True but is that point towards the end of the season when any chance of the play offs have gone?

So when your told your being sacked , but please ride in the next match and be happy about it. 
Really ?

Lewi has had 10 years at Lynn. I doubt if any other club would of been that loyal to him. We have stuck by him over the years when i think many clubs would maybe moved him on.  We gave him his testimonial this season as well. Being a professional, i would of thought he would of turned up, say goodbye to the fans and rode his arse off to show that the manager got it wrong.

They have gone. But we are in a cup final, and our loyal fans who keep spending their hard earned money deserve to see the team winning meetings.

I think so yes because surely it would only annoy Lynn fans more and more as time goes on him not being good enough and still there, I feel like that about some of our team…

Depends on the individual really, if his head isn't right after being released then you can understand him declining to ride but a different personality might want to earn the money and put in a performance to prove the management wrong.

But as he is injured its moot I guess ;)

So the club replaces a rider who couldn’t commit to a full British season Iversen with another rider who couldn’t commit to a full British Season Klindt And then we replace a British rider who HAD  committed to a full British Season Kerr with yet another who can’t do a full British season Jacobsen - That just about sums British speedway up putting a Brit out of a job who put the UK first with rider that I just become available as his club is out of play offs and wants to top his bank balance up . 

Kerr said in his statement, it is a weight off his shoulders. So not too sad about it?

Being a professional he should.As BB has said we have stood by him for many years when other clubs most definitely would have moved him on.You would have thought he would have managed one more meeting for the years of loyalty showed to him from Lynn.If Lynn hadn't have stood by him for those years how many weeks/months/years wages would he have lost through not having a club in the top flight.

I've never liked Doyle,, but I tell ya what,,, having watched him week in week out,,, I've changed my mind.  

Best no.1 we’ve had in decades, out and out winner, but also seems to absolutely thrive of entertainment too, absolutely box office, went up to lynn with my dad and uncle last night first time we’ve made the trip since the lockdowns etc and Doyle a huge reason why.

been impressed with his integration and commitment to helping the other riders too, super encouraging hearing his words on Danyon in the programme a couple of weeks ago, along the lines of “Dan will go far and keep improving because he engages and listens”

I thought he wasn't really gonna put much effort in and just ride within himself,,,, but was I wrong,,,,, he really does give it everything he has got,, and I 100 percent admire that.

Totally agree. Best number 1 we have for years and years and seems to really enjoy being at Ipswich. We can see that by the amount of help he gives to team mates. Always looking for them on track too.  If you read this forum Jason please sign up for next year. With  the team we have now you can be almost certain that if we are level or close going into the last 5 heats we will win the meeting. 
For a few years we knew we would lose .

Long may it continue but does depend to a degree on what happens in the next day or so with any planned changes

Racing has  been good for most of the year at Foxhall too so Chris and his team have to take to take credit for that to.
