Northampton Nohopers?

Where was Linda Lusardi? 🤷‍♂️

So you're happy to believe that Stewart Dickson is a liar while at the same time believe in your own mind that Mayfield Sport are going to be huge for British Speedway, with absolutely zero experience and no track record... how very strange

The trouble is they're rich enough to buy and run a club but not rich enough to really do anything meaningful to improve things. I was listening to the guy from Mildenhall on the 360 podcast this week and he deserves all the credit for doing what he's done there and the same goes for the guy at Worky but when you listen to them speak it's painfully obvious that they have no real ideas on what to do to improve the sport, especially at a national level. Listening to Rob Godfrey also the other week and he said they've got David Howe's daughter helping them out with the socials. Now I know nothing about David Howe's daughter maybe she runs a successful creative agency, brilliant if she does and good luck to her, but if she doesn't then is that really going to achieve the results that the sport desperately needs?

It's difficult to know what you get for your money other than exposure to around 5 or 6,000 people every week for around 6 months through the summer. It's more of a charity donation really.

So, Leicester who have openly admitted to (heavy?) losses over the last couple of years, have binned off their draw card and are in for another season with a (heavy?) loss... yet are still propping up a new team, that is bound to make, erm a heavy loss! You just couldn't make this stuff up! What on earth are those trying to make this happen thinking of? 🤷‍♂️ And that's just a Leicester perspective, Sheffield seem to be in a similar boat though they've kept their big hitters. Can't think that it would be any different for the Aces and Stars.

1. Tom Brennan 2. Simon Lambert 3. Danny King 4. Nicolai Klindt 5. Tobias Musielak 6. Jordan Jenkins 7. Jason Edwards TM. Sam Ermolenko 😉

He did post that his contacts (plural) were signed 🤔 And you'd think that as he's signed for NDL that would exclude him from CL with fixture clashes, so that leaves Monday & Thursday PL 🤔 😂😁

More chance of Simon than Robert 👍🏻

Although @PhilTheAce is usually spot on, even he is not always right... why Feb 6th?

That's a relief! At least Lions won't finish bottom 😁

Feb 6th is National Give Kids a Smile Day... or alternatively International Day of Zero Tolerance for Female Genital Mutilation (which would wipe the smile off of anybody's face!)

I didn't for one minute think he was Ippo bound, could have seen him at Northampton though.

If he was signed months ago, why on earth leave it until February the 6th to announce it? What's so special about February the 6th? 🤔
