Some great questions being tweeted in apparently. I bet there are!

Scott...

Why do the Promoters think they can charge over twenty quid for this?

Why is a Belle Vue rider helping another team to qualify for the play offs? 

Why don't the commentaters know the rules or be able to add up? 

When is the Kabbadi back on TV?

Whose fault is that. You have so many blank dates on a Thursday because the sport has capitulated to Poland and riders who seem to be dictating far more than is healthy for a minor sport. 

And what happens next year when the Polish 2nd tier rides on Thursday and 90% of all riders potentially drop British speedway.....

This track might just be up there on the top step of podium as the worst speedway track on the planet. Truly watching gutter speedway tonight.

Have to reluctantly agree. And they expect punters to pay to watch this. It never use to be this bad at Foxhall and having avidly supported the Witches since the early 90’s having lost Rayleigh in 73 and intermittently gone to Rye House in the intervening period as well as Kings Lynn and Mildenhall it is sad to see how bad Ipswich has become. Oh well always next season and hopefully Mildenhall can make a come back.

Time to reinvent the sport and build around what is available if the sport wants to survive. BSPL inactivity has allowed the likes of Poland to take a commanding lead and you really wonder what the hierarchy are thinking.

Foxhall has had rain-offs, and some Thursdays are limited because of Spedeworth (who Ipswich rent from) combined with eh restrictions on usage of the stadium, and of course the SoN nobbled another night.

If you look at the Spedeworth fixture list a fair few Thursdays have been available and I know the restrictions posed by East Suffolk council dictate the frequency of meetings but go back a few years and speedway was run on almost every week, so most excuses are just that.

One too many injuries at the wrong time.

Ipswich are basically done for when it comes to the Prem title this year as they'll lose heavily at Belle Vue in the SF.
