I’m not sure Buster does.He must sign it off, but he has taken a step back at both clubs. Dale has taken up more of a roll in both clubs for the last 2 years.

Norwichstar 3 Posted April 25, 2023 This team clearly was not going to deliver, it's performing exactly as I thought it would, but hoped would be proved wrong. Only a few fixtures in, but the writing is well and truly on the wall. It hurts as a fan of nearly 40 years .Although I cannot get to every meeting I am seriously considering for the rest of this season crossing the border to watch speedway at Foxhall, can't believe I'm saying that, but cannot face another season of being the whipping boys going into every fixture expecting to loose 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

At least then there would be some hope that a slight improvement would result in a win. Certain riders aren't achieving what they were at the end of last season for no apparent reason. I get that some big names have returned but we have only raced two different teams so far. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[Iversen 6.29 followed by Worrall 6.13] In fact put the top 7 from both teams together and it comes to less than 42. (And top 6 plus JE as rising star is well under the limit.) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I get that some big names have returned but we have only raced two different teams so far. I see it a different way. When you have a team of 3rd heat leaders and second strings you are going to have matches when they all click and you do a great job and a good score (last week against Wolves as an eg) but you will have more matches scoring 30 or less because of no real genuine solid scoring. This team was never going to threaten the top 4 imho. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OldHawk 72 Posted April 25, 2023 I have been racking my brains since last nights meeting to see if I can ever remember so many people leaving a meeting before the end. I could not recall anything like it in a almost 50 year speedway career!! I was standing in a place overlooking the car park and it was bad, at least 20 cars. Buster needs to wake up before the crowd becomes even more dangerously low. Agree with others, Nicolas Klunck was rubbish and needs to go. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
