Dennis McCleary will still be a promoter (unless any new owners get rid of him, which, in my opinion would be a mistake) and both Scott & Jamie have said they are attending the AGM, so they haven't handed in their promoters licences just yet, so time still to sign riders Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

True, it is more uncertain this season but in the last few years Belle Vue, Leicester, Glasgow, Berwick, Workington, Sheffield, Peterborough, Isle of Wight, Birmingham & Plymouth have all had new owners. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Would you buy one if you had the conkers, i know i wouldn't. It's equivalent to a one way ticket on the Titanic. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

screm 8,057 Posted November 5, 2018 There`s a number of clubs up for sale at the minute, Poole, Peterborough etc, where there is an air of confidence and positivity about the future. I dont get that with this news, looks like an uncertain winter ahead. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
