I was talking generally about the case and the actions and reactions of individuals for which there is evidence in the public domain. That's why I used the word alleged It was talked about on here. Holder did miss a few Panthers meetings to ride in Poland, when you had priority. It was said on here by some that Rathbone was compensated. I don't know for sure, but I doubt he would of ripped the fans off for no reward. Again "alleged" covers it, I think.. The what if Buster did that part was just hypothetical. Most wish Rathbone was still there, and seem to be on Busters case for trying. If Buster had done that with Jack there would be uproar.Thats what I was getting at. I think Buster is being treaded harshly at this stage for trying, that's all. Not saying he is always right BTW. We all have opinions, that's what a forum is all about at the end of the day I'll leave it there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BluTiger 21,661 Posted May 2, 2019 If they had replaced Cook properly with the points available before May 1st it would have showed some positive intent. As things stand i fancy Boro will possibly be competing with Lynn and Ippo for the wooden spoon... 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It’s not a case of “IF” but “WHEN” crowds fall Buster must be rubbing his hands at minute with how many are turning up Won't be long before he's wiping the tears when 1 man and his dog turn up. Expect we'll be hearing the same old tosh then 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just got up to speed with the story again - apologies BB. Cleared to break the rules and take the minor hit was the advice from the no2 that caused the no1 to blow a gasket. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wealdstone 3,454 Posted May 2, 2019 My recollection is that Ged had records of his conversation with the deputy boss of bosses which supported Geds version of events. Subsequently the Lincolnshire man was let off by his peers as he only did and said what he did for the good of Speedway. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rob B 1,245 Posted May 6, 2019 How has Lasse Bjerre green sheet average gone up 1.42 from 4.72 to 6.14! He has scored 7 from 4, 3 from 4 and 1 from 3 in league meetings. Moved up to 3rd in averages so Peterborough stronger without him now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
