  1. Ipswich are only in existence because of 1 guy & it ain't Louis
  2. Klindt is on a minimum guarantee + points. 0 pts doesn't mean he goes home with £0
  3. Jakobsen's last meeting was the 12th, he'd notified the club the previous week it'd be his last meeting. Pickering was injured in May & never returning. All done under the guidance of Brady. Jakobsen & Pickering weren't in the budget when Buster made that statement. Buster's budget concerns are with Laguta (expensive) & Klindt (no delivering), both on guarantees
  4. They'd already gone when Buster deemed the team "well over budget."
  5. Will back them but I'd never have gone with Ellis & Brennan
  6. This is ok if you're under 12. Teens don't think it's "kool' enough for their online image & anyone over 30 posting social media images with rider's just looks a total gimp. Not good promotion if you want to attract the next generation.
  7. Race for the 'Wooden Spoon Title'. A meeting as big as this, in front of the cameras should be £5. Every club should do the live TV meetings at £5.
  8. Further bad news for Wolverhampton Speedway, the main backer for many many years, 'Parry's International' on the brink. https://www.expressandstar.com/news/2023/07/17/dilemma-over-future-for-coach-holidays-firm/
  9. I don't mind. Just don't see how the referee could make any other choice than he did. Lindgren didn't make contact, Tomson shut off, straightened up & collected Thorsell. Correct call was made
  10. Obviously I'm alone but I thought the referee was correct. Lindgren never made contact
  11. Still waiting myself, not sure if I've been had
  12. There are radical plans amongst some of the promoters for the 2024 season. Waiting on more detail, will fill you in around lunch time but it's basically 1 league inc the stand alone NDL teams.
  13. They're not far out, King's Lynn would turn a small profit at 900 if they're all concession price. I believe only Artem is on a guarantee & the rest are scoring fa home & away
  14. Marc Bates Leicester, Damien Bates Sheffield. It's correct that you can't be a promoter of 2 or more clubs in the same league
  15. You've misinterpreted Chris. He's called Louis a disgrace for defending Chapman . There are no quotes in the post
  16. He didn't save Peterborough. He bought it to save the Premiership & it's TV deal
  17. That's correct, Louis no longer owns the stadium do they? I think Speedworth bought that? As a new owner, you're probably just purchasing the bond, licence, assets then may be £20k for the name. £50-£70k all in
  18. A serious businessman looking for a tax break on other businesses
  19. What's all this nonsense to stick in an honours list?
  20. Not forgetting, he was also after Ipswich too purely to save the league & TV deal. Fortunately for Ipswich, Tru Plant got involved
  21. That wasn't the situation at all. The issue was, at that time, had Peterborough moved down the Premiership would have been disbanded & the BSPL would have lost the Discovery TV deal. Buster bought Peterborough for that reason only, not to save the club & has shown total disregard for the club ever since. It's just ticking over & got absolutely jammy with it's league title thanks to covid, with every other teams having to run a bargain basement line-ups.
