mrss 691 Posted July 9, 2021 Stars miss out on another up and coming rider, as Josh Pickering has signed for Sheffield. Perhaps Sedgman will replace Wells in the team instead. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think Buster needs to take some blame for the Stars starting 7 this season. No blame for the in match decisions though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think Buster is also reasonable for the track? It can look superb but with the high clay content can be vey unpredictable for the riders. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Probably to take a bit of the work load from Buster, with 2 clubs to run. You could well be right Tel. It's possible Buster left the team building to Dale. I don't suppose we will ever know exactly. But i'm pretty sure Buster would of signed the team off, as he is the money man. I would like to know if the same person assembled both teams. If so, they could of evened them out a tad The panthers look an expensive team to me. Hans, Bjarne Bomber and Scotty, i doubt would be cheap for their averages. Where as Lynn, not so much. Anyway, it is what it is now. We have to try and make the most of it. We replace riders, but never seem any better off. It must be frustrating for Buster. Cause it sure is for me Edited July 9, 2021 by Bald Bloke Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
semion 2,192 Posted July 9, 2021 (edited) I can’t believe Buster gave anyone any say in how his business is run. I would suggest Allitt might have done the leg work but the yes or no on each rider came from one man. The amazing thing is that Buster and Dale, both being experienced Speedway men could look at that team they had put together and think it had anything other than a wooden spoon look about it.

The stadium would have an average inactivity of 5-6 days a week. Speedway meeting's & training / practice days a big part to mid week use. As much as cars are the biggest income for the stadium, I don't think the stadium would be financially viable if either sport was lost. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
