100% down to desire or lack of it - we was the same with the air fence or safety foam barrier seems to remember in the PL days we had Oxford air fence the club wanted volunteers to put the air fence up and take it down not many or any people came forward so the air fence sat round the back of the terracing pit end and riders continued to get injured John Oliver was one - so I guess if we all turned up with wheel barrows we could have proper red speedway shale lol

Forever the loyalist that’s trees lol None of the above matter when the promotion (and I used the word promotion in a very lose way as there isn’t much promoting going on ) doesn’t have any intention of using red shale they are quite happy using clay based with a few stone thrown in - sooner everyone realises its all about stock cars rather than speedway the better

Absolutely spot on - though thing to remember is Kings Lynn is a stock car stadium that just happens to stage a few speedway meetings .

Never saw yesterday’s meeting and was told yesterday’s was worse than today’s ? Awful meeting no racing just gate and go - whatever has happened to our sport ?

From what I saw on Tv last week Buster done exactly the same at KL though there is stock cars at Lynn is that the plan for the show ground ?

First of all I hope those who crashed last night are ok - BUTLost the will to live and turned over to watch the paint drying channel- Buster may have saved the league and Pboro speedway and the BT contract but with a track like last night he’s doing his best to kill the sport .

I will be watching tonight be good to see a KL home meeting it’s the clubs chance to inspire me to attend the next home meeting.

In a 7 team mini league when one man own 3 clubs the rider merry go round carries on between all 3 clubs only one conclusion =farce

Dissenters ??? Do you not mean paying customers? What a disrespectful way to call paying customers - Most people have work the next morning and want to get home some people have children with them and want to get home maybe you have neither and can take your time after the meeting but for most people that isn’t the case .

Well there wouldn’t be as bigger gap between the haves and the have nots as there was in 1995 as most of the top riders have turned there back on the UK - Lambert could well do that next season if he gains a permanent GP place and take Doyle away as well it’s the championship in all but name any way - the downside to one big league will be not enough meetings for some riders - Buster with out doubt saved the PL this season and saved the TV contract with BT but from what I’ve witnessed it’s more likely to put fans off going other than meetings from the NSS the meetings have been poor .

Thank you for that reply to my original question

Without knowing all the facts can I asked is it down to fixed race nights in the PL why the Tigers had to switch to Sunday’s? I

There you go - I was replying to Bagpuss post he bought the subject up not me

And that’s the exact reason we stopped going not the only reason admittedly but the main reason- the late finishing of meetings and lack of urgency to complete the meetings was the main reason - as I’ve said before for us 7-30 start would be far better sorry if I’ve said all this before and I’m not wishing to be accused of being negative

Lynn fans must be a different breed to Panthers fans then as some seem to have a mega hump over Cook

Wonder how SOME Lynn fans would react if Panthers had signed Iversen ? Or still do sign Iversen - that would be interesting

Thanks - just hadn’t heard him mentioned recently

Is Robin Brundle still involved with the club ? I’ve not heard his name mentioned for ages

I appreciate the league would have folded without Buster intervention but it can’t be good for the sport in the long run - I just think Pboro original team with Harris and Cook would have walk the league then dump Harris to go to Ipswich and pboro then dump Cook to come to Lynn all Busters clubs - it stinks and in any other sport it not be allowed to happen.

Perhaps it was the plan all along for Cook to cone to Lynn when averages fitted - when one man controls 3 clubs in a 7 team league that’s more than possible it could have been the plan

It’s obviously a step forward with the signing of Cook and I wish him well with the club .

So Cook has officially signed then ? If so I’ve missed it

I take your point but why would anyone carry on going to meetings handing over £18 just to keep a club going - If as a fan you feel your money is better spent on other things that you enjoy more that’s what your going to do - if the club listened to ex fans concerns it would be something but they don’t it’s there way or no way . I still class myself as a speedway fan I watch on tv every meeting I can but I choose to keep my £18 for other things .

So hand over £18 a meeting for something some fans are not happy with ? mmm now let me think what I’d do

Lump it or don’t attend
