    Why is it crap ? Profit margins on food & drink are huge, especially at the ridiculously high prices charged. Not sure why MT has been mentioned, & I hope all speedway clubs run next season.

    £4.50 for a portion of frozen chips approx 24 chips. Is that not extortionate?

    I personally think the bspa should punish KL for not being able to fulfil fixtures.

    They can't keep getting away with this without being reprimanded. Wouldn't happen in any other sport.

    Deduct them 6 points for every meeting they fail to complete, excluding rain offs. Also award the away team points if a fixture is called off without a valid excuse. 

    At the moment KL are taking the piss and making the authorities look silly.

    Whilst I do understand your sentiment, I worry that if the crowds are terrible who would want to take it over.

    The only reason the crowds are terrible is because of the way it is being currently run by Chapman. Get him out the door and new owners in place and the crowds will come back.

    If Chris Louis has said that about a fellow promoter, no matter who he/she is, he needs to be severely reprimanded by the SCB/BSPL in public, and have his promoting licence taken away.  

    That is way out of order, and he should know better.   

    About time someone highlighted Chapman as a total prat

    This

    One of the most sensible messages on here, let's support the Panthers Speedway through these difficult times (for current & Potential new owners, & supporters) for now. Then hopefully look forward to a better year next year & beyond. 

    I'm not giving Peterborough speedway another penny of my hard earned cash while Chapmsn is in charge!!

    Which is why one shouldn't go overboard when criticising those that do!

     

    I haven't got a high opinion of Keith "Buster" Chapman (slimy second hand car salesman who tells a lot of lies springs to mind! ) as a person with good reason but he's put a lot of his money and time into speedway since he first bailed out King's Lynn 31 years ago in 1992 and he is a genuine speedway enthusiast. Most people on this forum wouldn't be able to do what he has done in speedway so while its looks like his time in the sport has run its course and hes made mistakes like anyone does he should be given credit for the positive things he's done in speedway, a sport which only an absolute diehard would invest money into!

    Curious to understand why you think promoters are greedy. I'd suggest most, if not all, are losing money. If I was out to make a quick buck, speedway would be the last thing I'd think about.

    I will change that to short sighted promoters who need to wake up and smell the coffee

    Exactly this, plus young un's get bored quick enough as it is and don't wanna watch more tractor racing then actual racing plus listen to music from the 70's/80's at best:blink:

    Rubbish tracks, poor amenities, constant rule changes, lack.of quality riders, antiquated stadiums,lack of investment, greedy promoters, non value for money, poor product........just a few of the issues with speedway and why it is rapidly going down the pan !

    Poor effort...

    Do you put the king air fence up, or clean the rubbish house, pick the up the crap left after a meeting.... Oh no you just wanna pay £22 and watch good speedway. 

    If Buster had said that .... :blink: CJ or MT, hold on, we might need them..

    The only crap left after each meeting are the so called 7 riders which we are unfortunately forced to watch for our £22.00.

    Fingers crossed we get a stay of execution and that Tarasenko will be the first name on the team sheet.

    Have to get Buster out though because he'll just drag our club down and end up scuppering a deal for Tarasenko when other clubs make him better financial offers because he'll certainly be a man in demand on a low average that he'll make a mockery of.

    He's already dragged our club down to an all time low
