old bob at herne bay 828 Posted July 7, 2023 Not sure cancelling one home meeting makes much difference tbh . Next meeting is an away meeting ….so more money to pay out to riders with no home crowd income . Along with neighbours Pboro the future looks very bleak indeed for PL speedway in 2024. Maybe KL shoul apply to run in the CL next season to reduce costs ? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Or something copied and pasted during the past two decades or so..? And all to win something that very, very few even care about, or believe in... Nor delivers any major publicity, large financial reward, or even significantly increased attendances the following season... They will never, ever, learn will they? Last one out, turn the lights off please.. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

At the time Brady was there and funding it. looking back now it’s a bad idea. Buster shouldn’t have agreed to honour certain contracts when he couldn’t afford to. also what’s happened to supporting your club through the good times and the bad times. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TTT 1,228 Posted July 7, 2023 Inevitable. Panthers will soon follow if Buster doesn't go ASAP! Then Wolves will be toast too. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I actually agree with you Brady had totally s###t on Lynn he might well have serious personal reasons to quit but his actions could well have single handedly finished the club . 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TTT 1,228 Posted July 7, 2023 Artem should've been released as soon as Brady stepped down. Buster wouldn't even sign Tungate for Peterborough due to financial reasons therefore he was never going to have the resources to pay for Laguta without the clubs future being plunged into further doubt.

Something defo happened between Brady and Buster imo, I'm still not buying the family reasons idea. Why would Brady sign a world class expensive rider when he's already planning to step down and leave the owner with a bill he can't afford to pay. Brady also said that he's left the club in a healthy financial state which he clearly hasn't...........Something's very off here. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I watched the BSN stream last night on my season pass and theirs no way KL can afford Laguta with those attendances. You need deeper pockets than ever before in this game now and Buster doesn't have the resources for this day and age, Budget teams that are way below the points limit getting battered by 20+ every week will only turn more people away.

Daniel Smith 5,664 Posted July 7, 2023 Sorry to all the fans that continue to hold on to that passion to still attend meetings while British Speedway continues to shoot itself in the foot. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
