  1. Given that the bees have a promoter who is considered by many many bees fans to have aided & abetted Brandon Estates in their attempts to gain planning permission for Brandon it's extremely unlikely that they will be handing over any of their " hard earned" to support the guy . IMO
  2. https://twitter.com/NSSCspeedway?ref_src=twsrc^tfw&ref_url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.savecoventryspeedway.com%2F Some comment from NSSC . Still no explanation for the late withdrawal from Buster.. The messages do seem to indicate the club felt very "let down" by his actions.
  3. I don't think i would describe it as an "iffy booking". NSSC had been promoting the evening for weeks, Buster would have known at the time he accepted that it was close to the Prague weekend and if he had doubts then it would have been simpler to decline his invitation. To leave it until hours before the club meeting was due to start, and, if I understand correctly use a third party to inform NSSC without any explanation is completely out of order. I understand also that he made himself unavailable to contact from anyone from Nuneaton who tried to speak to him . IMO that says more about Buster than any words could describe.

  5. Haven't they already got a MFF in charge of that job ?
  6. I must say that Deans comments surprised me. We have been crying out for a good quality stadium in the UK for years, now we have one which provides excellent entertainment and facilities for the paying public. I've been several times and would go regularly if it wasn't for a 160 mile round trip . It's a pleasure to attend a speedway meeting and feel that you are still in the 21st century. I usually buy my ticket in advance and everything always works out well. It's just a shame we're not likely to see anything else to match the National stadium anywhere else in this country.
  7. http://www.savecoventryspeedway.com/news.php?extend.150 Some extra support for the fight.
  8. Shows the credibility of the club. Not common in today's speedway unfortunately.
  9. I think you will find that if a cricket game is called off without a ball being bowled then a full refund is given.. I can't think of any justifiable reason for keeping a supporters cash if the entertainment fails to go ahead.
  10. More importantly , do you have a plan for reimbursing the guy who posted earlier, who stated he wouldn't be able to make any re-arranged meeting?
  11. Desperation strikes, forums are for opinions if you hadn't noticed..
  12. You are beginning to sound like someone who has an interest in the Bees /Leicester situation, something I suspected as soon as you started posting on here. Just to let you know you are wasting your time with me , your approach has been used many times over the years and "cuts no ice".
  13. For such a new poster you certainly have an aggressive manner. Anyhow I think you've missed the point of my previous post . In case you're struggling with it take a look at the highlighted piece and have a think.
  14. I don't know about positive ,but they have started the season in someone else's manor. For many that is a huge drawback.
  15. Huge thanks to everyone at the group. That's a brilliant piece of work, and whatever the eventual outcome, the fans will appreciate you put up an excellent fight. Here's hoping for a positive outcome.
  16. It shouldn't be rained off , I'm here at home 160 miles away from Wimborne Rd and i can say there's no reason to call this off.
  17. For the benefit of the motormouth from Poole. http://www.speedwaygb.co/news.php?extend.34090
  18. http://www.goddenengineering.co.uk/ I think Don passed away 5 or so years ago
  19. http://www.savecoventryspeedway.com/news.php?extend.136.1&utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter The latest update on the efforts to save Brandon.
  20. Don't get holding your breath on those three questions.
  21. It's very interesting that the guy who is fronting up the Save Coventry Group, who has probably put in hundreds & hundreds of hours of time and effort into trying to save the stadium for future use stated quite clearly on radio last night that he wouldn't be attending Leicester because he didn't believe that a team racing there & competing at the lowest level represented the Coventry Bees. i wonder if all the posters on this topic who keep telling those of us who have expressed the same opinions, that we are trying to " kill the club" would accuse Jeff of being of the same mind?
