Thanks for responding but that’s not really an answer! I’ll try and put it another way. The yes/no decision (whoever is making it) will presumably be based on where the project is as a whole, so what needs to be in place by the decision date?
I take your point about the team finishing top not being rewarded, but expecting a share of gate receipts from matches in which they are not involved is not the answer.
Why not have the play off final in May, semis in June, with league fixtures completed thereafter. That takes the pressure off having to fulfill fixtures by October when rain offs are inevitable. Arse about face, but in keeping with the way the sport is run.
But what about all the time he spent dwindling down the squad of riders to the final three. Then the numerous phone calls to all those riders that just missed out on the final team selection. (More like, can I scrape together three riders up to the job).
Until the new owners of the club are revealed, Chris Louis owns Ipswich Speedway. He said a while ago that 5 riders were signed, so why can’t these be announced? These signings surely have the new owners blessing? He says he fully understands the frustration of supporters so why can’t at least some of the riders be revealed? He’d have been better off saying nothing. He’s shot himself in the foot in my opinion.
Out of curiosity, I’ve checked to see if there is a Curling Forum…….and there is! Everyone seems to be very polite with nobody moaning about things like surfaces being too slick etc……Just one confused poster complaining that none of the posts have anything to do with hairdressing!
Getting very fed up with this cloak and dagger situation with Northampton. I actually don’t care now if they are they running or not. Five or six teams in the league, still crap. Regardless of where they are in preparation, at least make some sort of announcement to generate a degree of interest. I set up as a consultant a few years ago and never thought to keep it a secret and not tell anyone. Would love to hear the business strategy (if they have one?) of those in charge.
