    Can't see him selling tbh, I'm 99% sure he's done a deal with AEPG, Something's just not right because things aren't adding up.

    Sad thing about is some Panthers fans will dance to his tune by attending KL meetings next season because they've put out a predictable 2023 Panthers select side.

    I hope the majority will see the light though and go to meetings at Ipswich and Leicester instead......Support the new ownership at Leicester or support Chris Louis and Ritchie Hawkins at Ipswich where the latter has already made the effort in supporting us.

    People can do what they please but it's Peterborough or nothing for me

    Not really unless you have the evidence to back up the vitriol.

    He's getting away with this very Scot free currently and it doesn't overly sit well. 

    All I see as a fan is our club closed down, track dug up without a fight from the owners of the club.  

    The fight is being conducted by fans and a consortium who want to take the club on, fine but what's happening with taking the club on? Is the current owner playing ball or just taking last seasons Panthers to King's Lynn? 

    Even the last meeting was poor and left everyone wanting more

    Because he doesn’t care & doesn’t want to promote Peterborough speedway. The ridiculous part of all this is had he put some effort in last winter or earlier this year to find out all that now come out about AEPG he may have found it easier to sell the club as undoubtedly Speedway could have continued at the showground

    Yet he's not being held to account, surely he's as culpable as Butterfield

    The shift in power of the council has definitely helped Speedway’s cause. The pressure we have put on AEPG is immense and guess what we’ve only just begun. The next two weeks are going to heap even more pressure on AEPG specifically with one confirmed (and as yet not announced publicly) event and one that I hope will be confirmed early next week. These two events will hit AEPG very hard. There is also another rally in the shopping centre of the ward where the Showground is on Saturday 2nd December.

    Also worth pointing out that the document you mention above originates from the PCC Planning Department. Great to see that Speedway is specifically mentioned in LP30, which kicks AEPG in the nuts as they have recently stated in a statement that LP30 does not specifically relate to Speedway. ‘ave it!

     

    So why is our owner not fighting this?

    No I don’t blame him but he’s bought a lot of it on his self - all saying is when you have a gathering like Saturday to protest the closing of the showground and the current owner of the club doesn’t turn up it’s not a good look - it says to me the true owner of the club is the fans and the real  owner couldn’t give a rats arse if Peterborough Speedeway continues.

    He needs to hand it over

    I've not seen anything Flappy tbh. I don't know what goes on behind the scenes, but  to be fair, I've never said he has done enough or anything to help the Panthers cause with regards to campaigning . I back him on some things ,if i think i'm right, but not everything.  Mick Bratley has stood up for Buster twice within a week on here, on stadium issues (page 624) . And he is well respected, as you know yourself. As i have always said, he's far from perfect, but i believe he gets some undeserved slagging off at times. Which i guess is the case if MB has stuck up for him on the stadium situation.

    Did he really need to announce Rob Lyon and Basso on the day of a rally, may be a little thing to many but comes across as insensitive

    All Busters mates so far, I’ll give this one a miss I think.

    It's a pathetic field for a meeting line this.  With all due respect what has Steve Worrall and Tom Brennan got to do with this meeting.

    After consideration I won't be going even if it's a good line-up.

    I just can't bring myself to line Buster's pockets one last time after the way he's treated us, I just don't like the bloke.

    Whether we come to tapes next year or not, I have faith that this won't be the last time we see Panthers on track because we've got a team fighting for us behind the scenes and that team consists of a a group of people who actually love the club unlike Buster.
