Chris Louis would have been one of those at the top of the pecking order and he was most certainly not accommodated with "the rest compromising". Speedway works in the UK the way it does because the majority of promoters want it too be run the way it is. Can't beat a bit of democracy eh?

The Directors are unable to implement anything significant without the approval of the shareholders the majority of whom are the self serving championship promoters.

Who do you actually mean by "they"? It surely cant' be the promoters of the five clubs who have committed to a top flight division. So are you referring to the "I'm all right jack" group of promoters in charge of championship clubs? If its the directors of BSPL then they are representatives from the two leagues where the majority appear not wanting to take part, or not wishing to develop a league of elite riders.

Which folk should graciously accept.

Yes, generally you can refuse to employ someone with an unspent conviction, as it's not considered discrimination under the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974. But to be fair, it would be good if such matters were judged on a case by case basis.

Meeting the Speedway Star deadline is way down the agenda.

Might be worth considering that as of now, nothing is sufficiently finalised to speculate or indicate when a meaningful announcement will be possible.

When they are in a position to publish something (meaningful🤞)they will. Until then (Wednesday or Thursday?) us folk on the outside can only wait.

Not sure we’ll have any official announcements today - tho it would be good if it did happen. More likely to be tomorrow or even Thursday.

As many of us are, although doubtful we will have any official announcements today (Tuesday) with Wednesday or Thursday being more likely.

The date was set/confirmed at the time of the original meeting being cancelled. So unless the meeting planned for tomorrow (6th) is cancelled there’s no need for any further updates. Just for the shareholders who wish to attend to turn up at the appointed place & time.

"Lets not" what?

Putting to one side the understandable sentiment and connection with fans and the wider supporters of the sport, if since the last statement was put out there's not a lot to be said, if nothing has materially changed. it would be fair to presume CL is not hiding behind anything like a corporate wall and as he always has been, will be sympathetic to the views of fans wanting to know more. So lets just wait and see what if anything transpires over the next week.

At least we’ve got fan interest in Ipswich 😉
