THE DEAN MACHINE

Or arry .? Lemon did show his face on Saturday, shame he couldn’t be bothered to bring his new beloved company along

Fabulous couple of days at the show,made a couple of pennies and hopefully along Jan staechmann, Aiden and Les Collins Buxton, belle vue and Workington and their stands all got speedway out there. Where were the bspl ? Where were speedway futures ? Where were all the other teams, it’s FREE for clubs to have a stand to 1000s of folks, I despair at this sport at times

Well after much grovelling on my knees to the Buxton promotion today I finally have a position at the club, I’m going to be the mascot, hello MR Bull S**t 😂

It’s good to see bspl members all getting along just like Rob Godfrey said 😂

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 😂

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

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

I just spoke to Buxton at the classic off road show at Telford, they say it’s not him who I was told

I wouldn’t be suprised if he did

Ive got 7 bikes and a van and all the riding gear but there isn’t enough werthers origonals or saga holidays to temp me to ride in the leagues again 😂

They can’t afford me these days, my demands are on a par with zmarzlik

None of the above but we need to attract all these riders back to plug the gap in the rider market but I not going say who has been touted as it’s not my place but I’m told he will be having a practice next week so let’s see,I will say he was the last person I thought it would be I wouldn’t be suprised if it turned out to be wind up

If you think Simon lambert has raised a few eyebrows in the national league wait till you hear Buxton’s last signing, when I was told who today I thought it was a joke but apparently it’s happening and he has a fair bit of experience at Buxton

He must of forgotten to mention the gaurentee on top of that then, yes that must be what’s missing

Another day another team paying the big bucks 🙄

You do realise giving them a pass for their incompetence does exactly that, to be honest I’ve got no skin in the premier game anymore, I will attend more polish matches than premier league this year but that more to do with no home track than the state of the sport,if I do any regular speedway it will be at Buxton, so really I’m sort of past caring what the premier do but whatever the outcome the bspl and speedway futures has treated the fans with absolute contempt and don’t deserve any support

Yes we just need the bspl to remember they have a fan base/customers and to stop stringing us along to a point of folk have lost interest and all will be well in the sport 🙄

Well there are better places to get your GM bits from but yes he is one of the suppliers

And if you do that engine yourself which isn’t difficult it costs you just the service parts

I just want to add my views on rider pay would be different if 1000s were coming through the turnstiles every week and the sport was flush with money but it isn’t it’s on the brink of extinction and we have to change

Good for you 👍and that’s the whole point, so you should have to work hard, damn hard, beyond hard because it’s not a given that anyone makes it as a rider unfortunately too many believe they are entitled to a paid career a soon as they have a bike

Have the bspl been kidnapped? Have they been locked in ACU house with no contact to the outside world ? We need to start a campaign,Free the premier 5. ( or 4 or 6 )

Even at today’s standards and equipment/prices you could could go buy 2 decent bikes, all the riding gear and the equipment to set up your workshop to service your own engines all for under £5000,no fancy covers or shiny new wheels and it would be good enough to ride in the national league which would pay you £20 per point, where else are you going to get any other motorcycle sport to achieve that level with such an investment and pay back? The trouble is we have grown a breed of entitlement within riders for what is an amatuer level and it’s backed up by promoters and parents, just because you want to be a speedway rider doesn’t mean someone else should be paying for your privilege

No it isn’t sensible, the control board should set out a pay structure and enforce it and riders either take it or leave it, if an amateur rider can’t make it pay that’s tough, it’s amatuer, until we get away from entitlement for riders we will never move forward, nobody wanted to listen when I tried to cut costs for riders, well fine you made your bed don’t complain when the springs stick in your back . I don’t care how any promotion make their money or how much money they haven’t got all I care is the future of the sport and at the moment it doesn’t have one

I wasn’t actually thinking outside speedway but yes you are 100% correct it is the world
