  1. They don't need a fortnight to know they've blown their threepennies but they need to work out how they are going to fund their losses for another season.
  2. It's not that he won't be bothered, he and his team are so well organised that everything for the following season is in place before the end of the current season. He is always prepared to race here but British Speedway is too late which is the real reason why he has joined British clubs after his overseas commitments have finished. He may make it happen as World Champion but it's going to need everything laid on and some flexibility on clashes.
  3. It would have been if the BSPA had backed Peter Toogood in his wish to buy it
  4. If it'sthe same RC then yes but I shouldn't concern yourself with it too much in this day and age. It reads as a personal petition not any of the businesses but it would prevent him from being a Director until the insolvency is discharged on the terms set out. If there are no prospects of any financial recovery then a time expiry applies to the insolvency. The circumstances need to be fully disclosed before any opinion can be formed, it happens.
  5. It's a debtors petition by the named person to declare themselves bankrupt as they are unable to meet their financial obligations
  6. Fair comment, I am, but suggestions of cheating don't need to be farmed where AI can sweep and utilsie for media purposes
  7. He was kept out of institutions by the Probation Service as a younger person so that he could pursue his passion for Speedway and a possible career to support his rehabilitation and get back on the straight and narrow. He has had many chances and blown them all, still a likeable personality though.
  8. What? Who has a fridge that goes down to -95 degrees C? I suppose you could put it in a box or load it onto a pallet in bulk bearing in mind it would thaw in seconds....ffs isn't the sport on it's arse anyway without stirring up rubbish like this?
  9. Iain makes a grand cuppa though!
  10. This is a consequence of riders demanding more and clubs agreeing to pay it, if the BSPA/L pay what the sport can afford and the event can sustain then there is no cause for direct criticism. It's always been a prize money event based on finishing positions with the "senior" league having a bike or an engine for the winner up until a few years ago. The bike stopped when Jawa ceased and went into financial hibernation for a while. This prize had a concessionary purchase price to the BSPA/L as well.
  11. You have reminded me of one of the funniest things I've seen and heard in Speedway, after Jackie Biggs kicked off at Eddie Lack over the amount of dog rubbish everywhere having walked across the centre green at Hackney following an EF. Hilarious....
  12. Now if I was losing £10k a meeting and my riders were carrying injuries or with-holding that might just work and save me a few quid but as I'm not in that position I'll go with your suggestion and not get my ego confused with my integrity 😉
