Was he ever,does he do guest bookings.Some riders don't, is he one of those.

Yes. The plan was in place and Lindgren originally agreed to guest for the Cup final meetings and all play off fixtures. The management at Ipswich are quite open and happy to talk if you catch them prior to meetings.

This is true, they are very open and honest and have nothing to hide. They probably want people to know they are trying to book the best they can and put on a good show. The problem is, and will always be, whoever you book will not come close to who we have lost this season.

Nope was never going to be. I know we battled on well and won meetings after Doyle’s injury, but you always felt our challenge was almost over as soon as he was ruled out for the season. One man is that important. Hugely influential character. Emil as well tbf, both irreplaceable. We have two 6-7 pointers next week replacing two 9+ point riders, tells you all you need to know really.

Yes unfortunately for Ipswich the will lose the cup final with the guests they have.  They have no chance in the playoffs either unless the guests are better, but with limited choice it's still going to be very difficult.

The only chance I see us having at the slightest is play offs featuring Emil and Brennan. Even then it will be a push. I really think Emil held the team together and if he comes back it could bring new confidence and energy into the team. Personally, I would tip Leicester to take the trophy. These cup matches can be good practise for Tom to get moulded in time for play offs... its speedway, anything can happen.

Promotion happy to get give the cup away it seems. Can we get a guest for King?

Don’t need a guest for Danny as I’m sure in both meetings he will get 7 or 8 which is what he was signed to do … not the c double figures some fans are expecting

Last time at Sheffield at the beginning of August he scored 4 points from 5 rides and he won one race, so are you sure he will score 7 or 8. He was poor at our last away match at Birmingham as well

Sadly Ippo are stuffed this season after losing the PL no.1 rider, and then the PL no.2 rider . Roo being injured just put the icing on the cake. 
 

They haven’t won a meeting since - home or away. Sheffo have been able to easily cover for the inconsistent Woofy, who retains a falsely high average. 
 

Leicester have had the luck this season coming into the p.offs with no injuries and must be favourites for the p.offs… always assuming it doesn’t rain in Leicester and they have to ride at KL 😂

Why is Woffy's average "falsely high" he's rode very well in GB & deserves to be between 8.5/9.0.

Big advantage Sheffield have is having two great heat leaders alongside Woffy.

While I agree for the most watching Freddie Thursday I’d say he was at emil/doyle level round foxhall
