There is no reason to rush and sign another rider as rising star.  Initially, at any rate, we can use riders such as Leon Flint and Dan Thompson as guests.

Im sure it used to be that a team couldn't have a guest for a rider that hadn't made an appearance - but I can't see anything in the Regs ...

I'm sure it was as well and still should be. Could sort of understand it if it was a broken collarbone or something, but the poor lad looks to be and for his own good should be out for the season, with riders available it can't be right to start with guests.

That can't possibly be allowed though, guests are something we want far less of and there is/has been plenty of time to sign a replacement before the season starts.

Over to Mr Morris....

Integrity....

Was just listening to kelvin Tatums podcast and he let slip that you’ve signed a replacement, they cut the name out of the rider though as it hasn’t been revealed by the club yet. Can only assume it’s kemp or Rowe 

Considering Jack Thomas was in both Poole and Ipswich teams, I do wonder if Ipswich do get Rowe or Kemp, they will also double up with Poole as well, as will help with race sharpness level needed to do well in the Prem.

I think this one will be a surprise.

There is 0% whatsoever a legitimate reason for Ipswich to be allowed a guest when there are plenty of RS options available. That said this being Speedway - you never know lol!

Yeah i can't see Mulford doing much and not sure how Thompson will do at this level.

They will both be very good at home but struggle away IMO, probably the same for most of them to be fair.
