The Panthers certainly look like a team going through the motions. The huge gap in home fixtures has been a disaster. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PHILIPRISING 7,298 Posted August 13, 2019 THE gap in home fixtures is a disaster for many, including Poole and Speedway Star. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes I’d agree with what you say the strength of the sport and fan base was much higher than now sadly . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We're done for and Buster will just buy another club in the winter and promote them to the Premiership to fill the void left by us. Believe the supporters club do not feel the same way as most about Buster. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Would anyone be interested in starting up a fans consortium to try and save our club. This is a legit post. No lies being told here. I'll put some money in but I cant buy the club myself because I don't have that kind of money but if their are enough fans willing to start a consortium and they have some money to put in then we can arrange a meeting place at the Showground to try and work something out together as a collective group. If you have an interest in this then please let me know. No time wasters though as I'm being serious because the clubs future is at stake here. One problem might be unfortunetly that many people gave there spare money to Ged a few years ago and some would say he never offered any back when he sold the club or allegedly took the Poles cash. 6 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bagpuss 10,757 Posted August 13, 2019 If this is a serious idea I’d probably suggest keeping your powder dry from now on about the guy you want to buy it from. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wealdstone 3,454 Posted August 13, 2019 Many would be willing and able to contribute a one off amount. Longer term is the problem. You will need to have a plan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Baldyman 6,243 Posted August 13, 2019 (edited) Amongst the fans there are probably many good business men/women with good ideas on how to keep the club running at a sustainable rate. You would need to set up a proper fans committee. Edited August 13, 2019 by Baldyman Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
