Its obviously very possible that another year or even two could be salvaged from the situation But if its to be a continuation of another year of the utter circus shambles call it what you like thats being played out so far this season is it really worth the hassle anymore , Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That is the conundrum isn't it? There is no future under the current ownership irrespective of how things play out at the EoES. I doubt that a 2024 season would be received with the same enthusiasm as it was when Chapman announced that he'd secured a 2023. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So if you carry on, it looks like you will need a knight in shinning armour. Same as Lynn. Edited June 26, 2023 by Bald Bloke Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Everyone has there opinion of Tomalin but until hes had his go in the hot seat of ownership no ones got the right to judge him fully, said prior to this season starting hes a better candidate to take the fight forward for speedway to continue in Peterborough Chapman's just not that person and in any case now hes got far more issues at Lynn to muddle though he wont have the time to put a case forward for the survival of Peterborough, even if theres more years agreed he has to sell Peterborough now for everyones sake including his own. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well Chris replied to one of my posts today with this... "You've completely embarrassed yourself on here over the last few months chasing round posts about Chapman. Pathetic and you've now got egg all over your face. "What I've been told by my sources is correct" haha " So i'm presuming he will be along to finally put the situation to bed. As he clearly knows the truth behind it all. I'm genuinely looking forward to it, right or wrong. Edited June 26, 2023 by Bald Bloke Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ouch 1,198 Posted June 26, 2023 If Andersen, Cook, Worrall, Basso, Iversen and Jenkins can bag 35 between then like last time and Vadim gets the 12 he scored against us at the NSS then it might not be as cut and dried as people are thinking. Since then they’ve only won and suffered a narrow defeat at home and that due to IRR for Basso. I think we’ll get the bonus *apologies to the forum for using factual past performance data as an indicator towards expected performance. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's all Mickey Mouse bollox granted, but you have a young lad making his debut who looks very useful and Bewley and Kurtz there... Could be some cracking racing... I presume that given it is on Eurosport they have reduced the admission to a tenner to get a big crowd in and make it look like a popular place to be and a successful sport...? With two free hours of advertising to showcase yourself, you would be daft not to wouldnt you?
