tellboy Posted July 17, 2021 Report Share Posted July 17, 2021 I see there has been a couple of changes in the fixture list.It's not just Lynn that do this but why oh why can't all clubs notify their respective fans on the clubs websites of new dates for meetings as soon as they know of them.It's already costing me £100 for Thursday meetings and the sooner i know of the changes the better. This happened to me under the J.Chapman era,whilst some worshippers thought he was God he was far from it.When i complained to him about a fixture change at Newport which didn't go ahead,i had already spent a small fortune on a weekend away.This was just about a week before and it was still on the fixture list as going ahead.He filled me with a load of bullrubbish about it being called late.Not until i spoke with someone did i find out it had been postponed about 2 weeks previous to what young Chapman said. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

semion Posted July 19, 2021 Report Share Posted July 19, 2021 Is this position Freehold or Leasehold ? I guess if he does no better than Peter then it’s leasehold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spin king junior Posted July 19, 2021 Report Share Posted July 19, 2021 Making a team sponsor a team manager? Are you being serious? I know this is the least of British Speedway' problems, but Jesus H Christ, it doesn't half make the sport look amateur. Where in any other sport would you see a bloody sponsor become the manager of a so called 'top level' team? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I take your point about amateurism but that ship has long since sailed for British speedway...... at the end of the day Alex is far from the first non ex rider team manager and there have been plenty of those who have been successful over the years so the fact he sponsors the team is neither here nor there if he does a good job. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ch958 Posted July 19, 2021 Report Share Posted July 19, 2021 in football management, many have been successful managers without being stellar performers. However, will he be able to advise on gearings, best lines, etc? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When will you give this rubbish up.It seems like you think everyone who has served under Buster is a yes man or they are out.You just give up with such crap.So you are saying Rob was a yes man? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
