Bspl Brewery staff p1ss up lol!

Approximately 6.5 miles from the centre of Northampton.

Low bar? Start digging towards the earth's core and you may find that bar.

As Carl Johnson had stated on 360 that Peterborough had been approached. Could it be that Peterborough could run out of Lynn? After all there are minimal restrictions and presumably Buster would earn extra revenue from it. Surely it's far more likely than other options.

Dean, I take it you had no idea it would go belly up at the end of the season?

Yes correct, the stadium was sold in early 1998 by receivers Grant Thornton and the team was forced to vacate.

Leicester Hounds/Leicester Stadium (1931 & 1937): Folded mid-season in 1931, with further issues in 1937. Liverpool Merseysiders/Chads (1937 & 1953): Withdrew mid-season in 1937; record expunged. Also closed in 1953. Ashfield Giants (1952): Closed during the 1952 season. Cradley Heath Heathens (1953): Disbanded mid-season in 1953 following the withdrawal of the promoter. Hackney Hawks (1983): Folded mid-season in 1983. Long Eaton Invaders (1997): Closed during the 1997 season. Trelawny Pitbulls (2003): Folded mid-season in 2003. Oxford Cheetahs (2007): Folded mid-season in 2007. Mildenhall Fen Tigers (2010): Experienced a mid-season closure in 2010. From Wikipedia, any takers in the Den?

That's my whole point Iain which some seem to miss. Only the brave invest in something with a long record of failure.

Wimbledon 1991? Rye House 2018? Hackney 1991? Newcastle 2022?

What if they hemorrhage money and Jack it mid season. Anyone remember Skegness?

Can we bin this idea about speedway at Northampton. It's going to be 5 teams at a push indeed if we (Ipswich) pull our fingers out and get it sorted. Other than that I reckon next winter we'll be in the same position only this time with 5 teams the hand will be forced. If any rightminded and sensible businessman wanted to open a speedway track then they would have done it by now without all the fuss and speculation. And indeed and most importantly they would be already marketing it as a going concern.

The championship teams (In this case the steerage passengers) are rowing away in the lifeboats, whilst the Premiership teams ( luxury passengers) are quaffing cigers and brandy convinced the ship won't sink!

I asked the question a couple of weeks ago for those of us a bit older! Can anyone remember the timescale (roughly of course) between the handover between Chris Shears and Dave Pavitt in 88/89. The only reason I ask is because I do remember some doubts about the club then? Including a suggestion we may have run out of Mildenhall.

Is Michael Aspall going to pop out with a red book tonight and introduce the new owner

No it's Cobblers!
