Totally agree if they’ve known about his arm pump issue then you wonder why they waited so long on Riss and giving him an extra 2 R/R rides every meeting. Also agree on the other reserve, Ipswich have to make a change there if they’re serious about challenging. I’d be on the blower to Connor Bailey personally.

You have to wonder how long they’ll give him before making a change there. He’s even struggling for points in the reserve berth in the Championship. Meanwhile you have the likes of Connor Bailey scoring paid double figures in the main body of the Redcar team and beating the likes of Basso and Chris Harris! Not Just Ipswich but Belle Vue also made very strange choices for their rising star positions. Pre-season Belle Vue & Ipswich must have known there were better options out there, but instead went for the rising stars they chose. Mulford & Joe T struggling is no shock, but I don't expect changes because they've already chosen not to pick the strongest option available!

Well, witches didn't pick Joe T from the start, he is a replacement, possibly the best of the rest in terms of availability at the time.... taking into account that Rowe and Kemp maybe aren't interested that is Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From the interviews after the signing, it sounded like Ipswich didn't try to get Rowe or Kemp, I'm sure the phrase was along the lines of "wanting to try something new for the RS berth".

They’re not exactly gonna do a press release upon signing joe saying “yeah we’ve got joe cos rowe, kemp and Bailey all said no” are they Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
