Piotr Pyszny 206 Posted September 27, 2023 (edited) I am afraid the Cinderella, fly by night, seat of the pants nature of speedway and its clubs is being exposed ruthlessly. Stock car racing appears scarcely more credible. Back of a fag packet 'calculations' and estimates, along with blind faith and non-existent strategy, don't show either sport in a good light.

heathen52 385 Posted September 27, 2023 Distribution of TV Monies, Crowd levels, Investment in Grass roots just a few items that have never been addressed nor made public by Speedway authorities, and this will go against this appeal, which I can see the inspector allowing.

Sadly you are correct if I knew nothing about speedway or stock cars I’d listen to the views put forward and I’d think are these people for real- sadly the argument in favour of speedway and stock cars the people doing it are vastly under prepared they need figures on costs and most importantly attendance numbers - I will be amazed if this goes in favour of Brandon Stadium if there was ever a need for a rabbit out of the hat moment it’s needed pretty dam fast Edited September 27, 2023 by Haza 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Deano 1,318 Posted September 27, 2023 An elected chamber refused it, so now an unelected official might allow it. We wonder why people don't bother to vote in elections. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bogged down, its like wading through treacle, suppose this is what goes on in most planning applications.....er apart from when the local council have their way.

Skidder1 7,637 Posted September 27, 2023 Can't see Matt Ford getting his chance today unless the inspector extends the proceedings past the usual 5pm!? (And that'll mean him missing tonight's meeting!!) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah its quite a joke really when they know he didn't get his slot due to Goatley asking the same question repeatedly in a different format (perhaps Goatface is worried he'll be bring the evidence that they haven't been provided with) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
