waytogo28 2,054 Posted February 5, 2017 Inevitably in landlord / tenant disputes the tenant who refuses to pay their rent as due will be kicked out after a legal process ( sometimes lengthy sometimes not ) butt he end result is always the same. The tenant is kicked out. In this case the tenants own association stepped in promptly in order that the sport didn't lose the use of the stadium. Ergo Gordon and Morton failed in their obligations as tenants. I don't believe that G&M had absolutely no say in the design and building of the track - how else would Bob the Builder know what to do? They might haver watched videos of Kirky Lane and then what would you have ended up with as a supposed NSS? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aces51 2,778 Posted February 5, 2017 They did design the shape of the track but had no say in the construction that was between the council, the builders and apparently their sub contractors. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
uk_martin 1,607 Posted February 5, 2017 Are Speedway Star any closer to issuing their Manchester City Council Press Release that doubles up as the "in depth account" of the shenanigans at the NSS over the last 12 months? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aces51 2,778 Posted February 5, 2017 (edited) Why would other clubs sell tickets? If you want a ticket before the event go to the bv website. It was never going to be a sellout so why print tickets in the first place? Just turn up and pay on the night. You miss the point. Tsunami is telling us that some promoters refused to sell them apparently, because of what they knew, whatever that was. That implies that they were requested to do so, you can't refuse if you haven't been asked. We know that anybody could have bought them online from Belle Vue but I suspect that some fans would prefer not to do that and instead be able to buy them at their local track rather than on the night, particularly so if they wanted particular seats.

Aces51 2,778 Posted February 5, 2017 (edited) Gordon and Morton always spoke well of Matt Ford, not sure why. Maybe that was their downfall. Edited February 5, 2017 by Aces51 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It was never going to be a sellout so why print tickets in the first place? Just turn up and pay on the night. Exactly. Some people on here are going into overdrive at a potential dig at the BSPA, individual promotions, etc. BSF at it's usual best. Nobody has to sell tickets for others events, hence the reason all the advertising and info gathering, was being concentrated on the organisation awarded to run the event. In the past, promotions have taken tickets to sell for big events like Telford, and get a set ratio of free tickets depending on how many they sold. Perhaps this time there was no incentive, I don't know, given that the main direction for tickets was BV who could sell them direct online. I am aware of some concerns, and other promotions might have elected to keep out of it, given what had gone on before it. That is for others to consider.

So when you said "Remember that some promotions refused to sell tickets for the British Final because of what they knew" what you meant was " I am aware of some concerns, and other promotions might have elected to keep out of it, given what had gone on before it. That is for others to consider." Then you have the temerity to criticise those who thought you meant what your original words actually said.

That statement is true because of the concerns they had and knew. They were not compelled to sell tickets and didn't. Hi KevH, still on the case I see. Saaad.

Star Lady 5,400 Posted February 6, 2017 That statement is true because of the concerns they had and knew. They were not compelled to sell tickets and didn't. So why not name them then. If the facts are true, and I have no reason to think they are not, simply name them. As you say it was not compulsory so they have done no wrong. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
