semion Posted December 16, 2022 Report Share Posted December 16, 2022 Thanks for that. Reminded me I still need to go out and buy the Christmas Crackers for the big day 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arch Stanton Posted December 16, 2022 Report Share Posted December 16, 2022 If it was both of Worrall and Batchelor it would be done already. Both seemingly straightforward deals to do. If riders aren’t yet signed because paperwork hasn’t been completed but they’re “hoping to get it sorted before Christmas” which is still 9 days away, suggests to me at least one is more complicated and hints at a rider abroad. Could be wrong obviously, but that’s the way it sounds to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blue witch Posted December 16, 2022 Report Share Posted December 16, 2022 Could be they're dragging it out so it looks like they've actually tried to find a rider or 2 abroad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worrall is a wanted man by both Peterborough and Ipswich with Andersen the back up for whoever loses out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baldyman Posted December 16, 2022 Report Share Posted December 16, 2022 Well if Ipswich lose out on Worrall to Panthers,, which is a possibility with less travel for him,,, then ipswich will be up poop Street,,,,,and will prob have to build way under limit again.

But yeah I do agree with your reply on Zagar tbh. I don't think Emil is likely but PTA said a few of his sources think he's nailed on for Ipswich so I wouldn't rule Emil entirely out yet even though it's a massive long shot.

Falcon1983 Posted December 16, 2022 Author Report Share Posted December 16, 2022 i'd rule out any type of big hitter at no.5 it will be King at 5, Tru7 are not going to cover the costs of another rider at Ipswich next season, that would be a significant increase in sponsorship and that is not happening, and Chris Louis will not gamble the future of the club either Even tho people are saying he isn't there at present Batch @2 and Worrall @3/4 is the best option out there unless someone can come up with something else that's realistic to replace Batch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He rides Foxhall very well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TTT Posted December 16, 2022 Report Share Posted December 16, 2022 Best deal for all parties would be this. R. Worrall to Ipswich and then a trade between the two clubs which sees Hans Andersen head to Ipswich in exchange for Troy Batchelor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we are in a battle for Worrall,,, then we arnt after a big hitter,,, the maths says so 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jason Doyle 10.32 2. Hans Andersen 4.93 3. Erik Riss 6.00 4. Richie Worrall 6.15 (6.31) 5. Danny King 6.41 (6.57) 6. Keynan Rew 4.00 7. Jack Thomas (RS) Ave: 37.81 Remaining: 1.19 Hans scored 11+1, 7+1 on two visits last season and had a retirement each time Richie scored 11, 10+1 from reserve then 8+1 from riding at no.3 I can maybe see the logic of Richie who is reasonably solid, and Hans who rides Foxhall well as the BP is going to be key this season and based on whats just gone there won't be many BP's based on home form but still need King, Riss to be more consistent at home Apart from Batch for Andersen I can't see the team being anything different to that now 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dontforgetthefueltapsbruv Posted December 16, 2022 Report Share Posted December 16, 2022 It does make me laugh that so many say Ipswich can't afford to sign a 2nd big name to back up Doyle yet you see the same predicting Peterborough will name a big no1 backed up by NKI Holder and Basso.... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spiderman1 Posted December 17, 2022 Report Share Posted December 17, 2022 If doyle has another year like 22 over here he’s worth every cent, a big ask as looks to be more competitive in 23, can expect plenty of changes if riders fail to produce, just got to stop the lambert or similar happening Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
