Sheffield vs Ipswich 13th May


Recommended Posts

Nicholls alluded to the difference in team spirit between the two clubs. Not once in heats 13 & 15 did Woofinden look for his team mate, whereas Emil & Doyley did. Surely Woofinden had to try and slow the race down not just go off into the distance. Now that Milik has been dropped maybe he will end up at Sheffield as Howarth's place must be in doubt.

Hard enough trying to slow 1 rider up around sheffield never mind both Emil Sayfudtinov and Jason Doyle. I’ve never read so much drivel in all my life get back to bed you imbecile.

When you win you don’t look at the under performing riders whereas when you loose some fans on their back straight away, prime example when Sheffield won away at Leicester the other month Woffinden scored 5 yet nobody screaming for his head (he had enough of that in Wrocław!).  Just seen Woffinden’s interview and might be a bit of reverse psychology re team changes to get a few misfiring riders firing, but personally  don’t think TV is the place to air it

They were up against better riders in my view - only Bewley was able to mix it last Thursday - as it was both Doyle and Emil scored less than I would have expected. Oddly in the highlights from BV last night Bewley was shown as team riding and constantly looking for his partner - he was castigated for not trying to do that at Owlerton. Sometimes you have to just gate and get the win and hope your partner gets something.

But injury replacements are only allowed before the transfer cut off. You should have used guests from within the British league.

think you had better read the rules !! if BSPA sanction it it's within the rules otherwise Lambert wouldn't have rode obviously !!

So straight forward in the rules that you announced him before 1st leg of semi but he didn't race until 2nd leg, after your club got lawyers involved ?

The 2 scenarios were completely different and everyone knows it.

correct, Belle Vue actually signed him which made more sense than him guesting in the final for Sheffield.

Woffy saying when the averages change Steady and Bates have make choices.Sure his fellow Team Mates will be pleased to here that.His fellow Aussie mates will be Ok though no doubt.Typical Woffy.

So the guy who ignored British Speedway for many many seasons is after just a few short weeks back calling out the need to sack

A) Young Brits just finding their way and whilst a little out of their depth are there because the the team has been front loaded to include him

B A loyal experienced Brit in his testimonial year who currently is a bit of a slump

Classy!!

No as in main body of team at start of season I believe that means you opt out of the RS scheme for that season, so Edwards cannot be at number 7 through 2024

Then Edwards will have to be sacrificed instead of Gilkes then.

Would Kerr and Etheridge fit for Howarth and Edwards.
