Chris 441 Posted April 7, 2015 Eddie having a go will have absolutely zero impact, several strong and experienced riders have done the very same over the years...then people wonder why the team spirit in the pits is as it is. That was when Silver was owner, he isn't now. If the new bloke sees the problems Silver causes then he'll have to go. By the sounds of it he's cost the home side the meeting yesterday & pissed the captain off. If Rye don't qualify from the group now then he's already costing the new bloke by not having the extra meetings. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chris 441 Posted April 7, 2015 If that's the case & my money behind it then goodbye Mr Silver. His arrogant decisions cost the side. Noticed Mellgren made a comment on Twitter about how slick it was. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Odds On 373 Posted April 7, 2015 aha but is the new "owner" the whole owner or a joint owner?!...the plot thickens, either way having an "atmosphere" within the pits at this tage of the season is bad news. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shadders 4,135 Posted April 7, 2015 (edited) aha but is the new "owner" the whole owner or a joint owner?! Warren Scott bought the entire operation. Len Silver is in charge of team matters and track prep, nothing else as far as I know Edited April 7, 2015 by Shads Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ben91 1,743 Posted April 7, 2015 (edited) New promoters need an "experienced hand" to guide them for their first few seasons in the sport I believe, so until Scott has been owner for that period of time at lease I assume Len will still be on the scene.

I've just noticed the lack of young people in the crowd, no surprise there then. Just where is the next generation of speedway fans going to come from.

SCB 0 Posted April 8, 2015 nice photos Steve. I've just noticed the lack of young people in the crowd, no surprise there then. Just where is the next generation of speedway fans going to come from.

TheScotsman 2,483 Posted April 8, 2015 Not much of a safety fence!! https://www.flickr.com/photos/the_womble/16888476398/in/album-72157649509012613/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Panthers89 1,922 Posted April 8, 2015 When I turned up, that 1st bend fence was questionable, but to be honest, its fine, it aint half as bad as what that picture makes out! Good pictures though Steve. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
