I'm not sure any speedway meeting is particularly important let alone an early season league Cup warm up.... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Arch Stanton 2,289 Posted April 6, 2022 (edited) Hasn’t always been the case, but in recent seasons we can’t use lack of resources for failing either. We’re backed well by Guy Nicholls, we apparently paid a kings ransom to Crump, have stumped up the cash for Doyle this year and by all accounts blew Belle Vue out of the water to pinch Batch at the 11th hour. Not sure there’s a better backed club in the top flight at the moment. If we continue the trophy drought, then Louis has to take the blame because he’s the one who builds the teams it’s as simple as that really. Haven’t landed a major trophy on his watch to date in either league, poor record. Edited April 6, 2022 by Arch Stanton 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nope, certainly not on the average he was coming in on that’s for certain. Just ran out of ideas in the end and they were alerted to his availability when it looked like he was going to Peterborough.
