The side this season on paper looked decent , I hear what your saying about the club but Buster is getting on and has previously said he won't risk his retirement monies equally given the silence from the club it doesn't seem there's a que of people knocking on the door to take over from him either.

Lynn are probably the Scunthorpe of the top league team built to a budget but given nobody seems to want to take the team on its probably either accept that or the team closes down.

Then does Buster actually care about Kings Lynn as a speedway club or does he only care about his own interests?

Forget rivalries aside, Kings Lynn are a fine Speedway Club. They’ve always been a big part of top flight speedway going back to the Terry Betts and Michael Lee days, had some of the best riders in world speedway. The fact they’ve never celebrated a top flight title isn’t right really. They’ve a loyal fan base and they deserve their spot in the sun. Until change happens, I doubt that will come unfortunately for them.

I would say both to different degrees he said a few years back he wouldn't subsidise the stars to the levels he had previously , he thought Brady would be the man to hand the club off to but we know that didn't work out, equally I don't think he wants to see the club fold even if it made his life easier but he's not going to go all in on a knockout team in his late sixties and risk losing his retirement pot.
