I didn't suggest that they all did. My point was simply that if any Aussies wish to conduct themselves like Holder & Batchelor did , then British Speedway would be no poorer without them.

Not if they conduct themselves in the same manner as Holder & Batchelor. IMO

This could soon become quite an explosive topic.

I saw the "ticket dodger " at Sheffield yesterday and I did wonder if he had paid his fare from "Bonnie Scotland" this time.

I think it's fair to say that your post shows that you have no perception of the real issue here.

you could try a PM.

If it's Wilf then the brummies could be on " thin ice"

Then again some might describe him as a knowledgeable speedway person who has the ability to see what really happens at Wimborne Rd.

Just found the report, doesn't sound promising. http://pages.cdn.pagesuite.com/9/a/9a6d1c4b-7079-4260-b25f-fbcb51de7203/page.pdf

Yes, I realise that, but TWK was responding to a post about another company who are also involved in building in Poole, who we understand also own the Brandon site.

It's not the stadium . They are wanting to build flats on a site about 1 mile away near the Poole Hospital.

I seem to remember he was" on another planet" at other stages of his life too. Allegedly

beat me to it.

Hopefully we won't see him running any clubs again.. A step in the right direction for British Speedway IMO.

Also what about the properties he stated that he wanted to buy when he first arrived , to house the top stars that he was going to get to ride for the bees. That's more assets,............. Isn't it?

Funniest part of all this is that Starman actually put a like onto your post.

We need a " mole " to keep us informed.

Let's hope that the council have their heads screwed on and make sure that there is some sort of contribution. I'm sure that the save coventry group will have done their sums and that they are confident that it would be viable, otherwise why would they bother.

Brandon Estates painting the poorest picture possible in their attempt to change the view of the council.. Only to be expected really. This is just round 1.unfortunately.

But it can be understood, unlike Geordie.

Except that it isn't a Brummie accent. It's " Black Country". It makes a huge difference to West Midland residents.

I see Shovlar is still here spouting his usual garbage. I think he must have been booked on one of those cancelled Ryanair flights to Rome.
