montie 1,273 Posted August 6, 2017 http://www.speedwaygb.co/news.php?extend.32942 Mr Chapman is not amused. and rightly so we can all give the BSPA some stick and at times, deserved,,,but Chapman its totally correct here,The panthers promotion has sold British speedway down the river in this case Clubs cant re-arrange fixtures with them becuase `` we dont have Holder``.........yet when a bit a .... is available...different story Sad thing about this is the promotion lack of respect for the panthers faithfull,reading the statement,they could have made Holder rider today,but chose to take somthing in return i feel for the Panthers fans,i hope today they will show their promotion what they really think 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

waytogo28 2,054 Posted August 6, 2017 If these "bonds" that promoters offer up to the BSPA exist, fine Rathbone double what he took from Torun ( or an estimate of it ) from his bond. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Baldyman 6,243 Posted August 6, 2017 (edited) Oh the good old club closure threat. To many clubs for the amount of riders anyway. Ged should be shot at dawn at 30 paces along with anyone that's thinks what he has done isn't wrong. Edited August 6, 2017 by baldyman 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Badge 5,127 Posted August 6, 2017 Agree,just telling us that Jacks not going to get a ban!!! isn't that why they can't give him a ban!!! You think Poole would allow that?? Obviously ged will take the can so holder can still fullfil his PL fixtures and ride in CL when he hasn't got a better offer. Stinks!! 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Crump99 4,477 Posted August 6, 2017 (edited) http://www.speedwaygb.co/news.php?extend.32942 Mr Chapman is not amused. Stable door job and deflecting all of the blame because they are not really in control of the sport and their own showpiece event. So the question was asked and refused prior to Friday but Holder left anyway (and was pointed out and discussed on here on Friday) but it takes until Sunday afternoon to get response out. What a weak excuse permission of the club is. The club didn't have authorisation to give their blessing if the BSPA didn't sanction it and contractually and by agreement the rider should be at Peterborough? Should get 28 days anyway. Would be interesting to know what evidence they have, if indeed they have any, but that'll never get out anyway. Nice carrot though Edited August 6, 2017 by Crump99 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Baldyman 6,243 Posted August 6, 2017 (edited) Maybe it's about time the trading standards were involved. The rules for this event clearly state top 4 riders. The panthers are not putting out there top 4 riders.. After all the dust has settled though, the only thing that will have happened is..the so called sport wil have a few more supporters.

LagutaRacingFan 1,939 Posted August 6, 2017 So Panthers ruined the integrity of British Speedway? Lynns team last night was beyond embarrassing, and then throw in what you done to Holder and Troy? Pot, kettle and bloody black. The response to the BSPA statement on twitter shows that Chapman is a deluded arrogant man. The fans are on the side of top riders like Jack Holder.
