  1. If no one would listen to him from within why would they appoint him to run things independently....
  2. Indeed - I've even known one time where a rider took such a knock to the left ankle that it caused so much pain and confusion it made him limp on the right one It's truly amazing the lengths they go to sometimes to entertain us. Hang on he didn't - he pulled out of the meeting instead
  3. My understanding is that the links are via the supporters club (who should be commended for tireless efforts over many years) I asked similar questions when it looked like Buster was taking over Ultimately the funds are there to assist with club costs so whoever is in control can request For example the need to replace the air fence this season would vert likely be the type of expenditure that would be contributed to
  4. And in what way is that Speedway's problem??
  5. So make it so that they can't 'take advantage'
  6. There needs to be some protection in place to cover this situation If a change is made it should be the reduced average that is available
  7. So basically - shut up, turn up and pay up No thanks Make your choice - accept the consequences
  8. He doesn't need to be banned - clubs will have to make their own moral judgement as to whether to employ him Fans then can make the same personal judgement as to whether to attend a meeting he is involved in I for one would not part with a penny to attend any meeting where he was riding
  9. At the start of this phase when Chris announced 'the sale' I thought that was actually the end game after a bit of brinkmanship Now I'm not thinking that at all - although in many ways it would seem like the best option (certainly for the club, the fans and probably the sport) I no longer think Chris sees it as the best option for him, even at the risk of not running at all I believe Ipswich will run one way or another - only time will tell who by
  10. So despite all that is going on this winter and the expression of the need to reset and build for the future the proposed best solution to Scunthorpes team building is to bring in and over inflated foreign rider and sacrifice a new 2 point Brit as soon as it is possible to do so I think that shows that people are simply not interested in what might be best and there really is no hope left.....
  11. Replace Pickering with a 2 pointer and you have 2027 one big league in a nutshell
  12. Exactly - Speedway is no longer worth the risk Soon to be no more than a cost covered hobby
  13. Not worth his while just doing the Championship? Oh well there was more than a few that have said if the riders don't like it they should get a job - they will be pleased
  14. Yeah I've got it - too many involved lack the ambition, ability and skills to promote and progress the sport
  15. So basically we are headed for (at best) a semi professional set up I the UK See above - if that is true and we can't even attract and afford up and coming U21 riders what chance those in the category you mention I'm coming to the conclusion that there will not be any common ground between enough clubs to be able to get ANYTHING agreed let alone work UK Speedway is f@c£Ed barring a miracle influx of cash from a currently unforseen siurce
  16. Yet when questions are raised about how one big league could be made to work it is always trotted out that we will just get in 20-30 riders from abroad like its as easy as clicking your fingers.......
  17. Would you really expect him to say otherwise at this point...... (and rightly so)
  18. I refer the honourable gentleman to my previous answer
  19. It makes sense to anyone with even half a brain Unfortunately there are still a few who don't meet the criteria
