I understand nothing to do with Carter and Bailey or nothing to do with BMR

But surely the Bond (I believe to be 50K - 60K) is to only cover Speedway related debts.

How much was the total debt?

If that is true Chris then that is ridiculous. The Bond is there to cover ANY debts incurred by a promotion, who is to say the debt to a rider is too large or the debt to a landlord is too excessive, the bond should be there to make sure in the event of a promotor not fulfilling his obligations the BSPA will make good these debts (presumably the BSPA did not get paid in full themselves). Maybe the debts were so large that the BSPA exhausted the bond without paying everybody in full, if this is the case then BSPA should list in detail how the bond was distributed.

Thanks Chris, but as Carter & Bailey Ltd who owns the leasehold of the stadium and according to Companies House is still active but with Robert Scott not Warren Scott as director, then the BSPA could address their issues there or would this action open a "can of worms" for the BSPA?

I still don't understand that if riders are still owed money from the Rye House management then why has that not been paid from the bond? or, if the bond was not paid, why has the BSPA not sued the Rye House management?

As mentioned above Carter & Bailey Ltd is still active and in the Sep 2017 accounts it had Gross Assets of £924,547 (one would presume that is the lease with the Lea Valley). The companies sole director is Robert Scott (nine years younger that Warren)

Such a logical attitude you can forget being co-opted onto the BSPA Can you outline the "feathers"

Amazed to read in the Speedway Star today "Lakeside are unable to compete at Rye House with the BSPA said to be in dispute with the former Rockets promotion over their mid-season collapse" 1) Then why did Lakeside have permission to ride there at the end of the season? 2) What is the "dispute" with the former promotion? It is common knowledge that there has been late payers before and to my knowledge it has never resulted in this action. 3) What has the dispute go to do with Lakeside?

Now is the time for Rye House to apply to join the Polish League.

Post of the day

That's you banned its Chairperson, welcome to the Liberals Mad World

You misunderstand, he was on loads more than £100 per point, I also understand it was fixed amount per meeting but it would be entirely wrong to say how much on a public forum.

Chris Harris on £100 per point? nothing like that at Rye House AND he didn't try most of the time, and according to Glasgow supporters we weren't the only one to suffer he selective efforts, yet when it came to Poole boy did he suddenly find the effort (could it be he hopes to secure next season with one of the best paying teams?)Just guessing

Rye House "Infradex" leathers 1976-80

All very quiet on the 2019 plans, if there are any. As Elsie Partridge would say "if there is anybody out there, please say something"

Spot on

Still hope Lakeside can ride next season somewhere. If Jon Cook is off to Eastbourne and the "backer" Stuart Douglas has withdrawn from speedway why was Jon Cook so bullish in the Speedway Star about a deal has been made for Lakeside to run at Rye House next season? Is it that another promotor is lined up for Lakeside? as from many accounts the BSPA kicked out BMR not BMR going bust (so its a stretch to think they will allow BMR back as promotors). Still cant fathom, if Rye House were behind on payments to riders (still not proven how much) many other clubs have admitted the same yet were never thrown out. It seems punitive given the state of the sport and many tracks.

No Im not employed or contacted to BMR and I have criticized BMR many times, see its not that hard to answer a question.

No answer then

last chance to answer my question "has he approached the BSPA" yes or no? and his statement was some time ago, is he still owed money yes or no?. If you cant answer these questions why are you making your point

Im confused, you say a public forum in the place and then you say Harris went public. I do not expect Harris to state his earnings or how much he is owed, but my question was has he approached the BSPA regarding payment from the bond.

I understood that even in thr NL the bond was around £30,000 so even if Harris was on £2,000 per meeting Rye House did not ride that many matches. cityrebel as you seem to know Harris, can you confirm did he get some money? and did he approach the BSPA?. All riders should be paid fullstop

If a Liverpool fan lived in Sydney and an English footballer played for Sydney Utd he might not attend, but if Sydney Utd played Liverpool in the league then I bet he would go. And anyway how about English fans flocking to see the worlds stars, afterall haven't we been told that if we can lure them back to England the sport would flourish.

Then he should contact the BSPA direct, the bond is there to cover any outstanding debts, is it not?
