Who is the liar

I think it’s a bit of confusion with the name, they have the same first name

Bit injury prone but they just said his average is too high

Gutted I didn’t get the Buxton team manager job,,begged and pleaded with them but they turned me down, so I settled for the track to be renamed the Deano Machino arena 😂

Hoped they were going to be nicknamed Buxton Bullsh*tters with Laurence Rodgers at the helm

Mr R is available 😁, but I doubt LR would fancy taking a chance with the former mascot 😁.

I know this might be considered as a side track to the current conversation, but I'm getting a bit annoyed at the BSPA not posting literally anything about Buxton's return on social media.

They've got a combined reach of 85,800 followers across Facebook & Instagram, and since Buxton announced their return they haven't made the effort to make one single post about them - that includes their return, signings, anything. The only mention was when they announced the NDL rules, and that was more of a side note than anything.

I can't say I'm surprised though, as we know what they can be like, but it's disheartening to witness this, with the fact that there's a new (not new) track in the country now.

That kind of reach can be make or break for a new track - even if 25% of the followers see the post that's still 21,000 people who see it.

I have said it for years the national league should go their own way with the blessing of the bspl, ultimately the higher leagues don’t and never have cared for the NL unless there is some sort of financial gain for them, they get jealous of any NL club that has any financial success and set out to penalise that club, the fake outrage when a Nora league was mooted was speedway in a nutshell, our way or no way, the likes of Barry bishop understand the bspl mentality, don’t expect any help because they don’t care

I think the fake outrage was more genuine fear. A Nora national league could have easily operated alongside the BSPL leagues but with the ability to take a fresh look, introduce fresh ideas  but also drop any that didn't work whilst being forgiven as it would have been a known work in progress.

Instead the BSPL threatened riders that competed in it and threatened clubs with closure if they co-operated. Rather than generate track time for both established and emerging riders its was beaten down by snakes who champion themselves as saviours of the sport.

I agree - but surely a bit of help from their social team wouldn't go amiss?

They've posted about signings for every other NDL team and have ommitted Buxton entirely 🙃

I believe it's an external agency but I could be wrong.

Does Phil Lanning not have a lot to do with it. 
 

Hence why you get quite a lot of Glasgow related things on it.

I've genuinely no idea, however I'll say that Glasgow's social media presence and content are second to none in my opinion (based on the rest of the clubs). Poole follow very closely behind in 2nd place in my opinion too.

If I was in charge of an agency that posted content from other clubs, I would probably favour their content over others, just because of how polished it always is.

If you check the bspl Web site, buxton is the only club whose Web page is not yet up and running. The bspl only take information from those Web pages ( lazy journalism) and so they have no information to give.
