  1. He was just pointing out that Mark hennessy own autogate and is previous sponsor
  2. Couldn't be further away from the truth if you tried as per usual. Buster as got someone to fit the bill. He set out to stop pairman getting his hands on it and has succeeded. The other bloke Mark hennessey is just as good a fit. And tbh I'm not arsed who takes over as long as someone does
  3. Why is it desperate. There was 3 people I terested. One as pulled out. The one the bspa want is still in for us. Nothing to worry about or see here
  4. You was round his house for a brew not long ago dIddnt you say on another thread. So why don't you ask him if he is still involved because I'd love for Chris to still be involved. Aces legend through and through.
  5. Just seen some pictures taken from weekend. Damage don't look to bad
  6. We might not hold a world cup ever again aswell. Lol
  7. Have you been?????? And you should be the last to talk about heavy handed security. 2015 play off final your security were thugs. Pushing and shoving the elderly belle vue fans. Especially the old grey haired man who looked like a pirate.
  8. Manchester titans. American football team
  9. Had to copy and paste from a BV page The following was posted on the belle vue army forum and fans page on Facebook. makes interesting reading. "The council requested an investigation and report into the track issues. The comprehensive report was compiled by Arup's. It's filled with very technical jargon but the main problem was the tarmac from the hockey pitch that wasn't removed and the geotextile membrane used was not as specified nor the same as the rest of the circuit. This as you say effected the ability of the track to accommodate moisture in the most unpredictable and frustrating way. In certain environmental conditions all was well in others the surface became soft and boggy. Due to the unique nature of the problem and the fact it has never been encountered before conventional solutions were adopted to solve the problem and these were only to do with the top surface. To frustrate matters further work carried out on the shale seemed to do the trick but in reality it was just favourable environmental conditions lulling us into think all was well. The best illustration of the unpredictable conditions was around the time of the full behind closed doors team practice. This lasted several hours with Aces, Colts and others taking to the track and giving it the thumbs up. A press release with comments from Mark Lemon saying all problems were sorted and the track was good to go followed. Two days later people congregated around turn three near the track maintenance gate to witness water bubbling up from below. The following meeting was then called off and bends three and four fully ripped up and the investigation put in place. There are many photos in the report with one showing an amount of used nappies used to fill the base. This isn't a key issue but illustrates the level of workmanship in this area. I think the contractor was keen to finish and therefore not receive any penalty payment requests due to missed deadlines. The main contractor employed a sub contractor to carry out the track groundworks. The council own the report and have since placed an embargo on its publication. The council and contractor have many multi million pound projects in place in the city. ### To put it mildly the council were not keen on rocking to boat with their preferred contractor and anyone instigating such action was seen in a very dim light indeed. When the option to sweep them, oops I mean things under the carpet was presented to them by a third party they jumped at the chance."
  10. Which thread have I come across here. I can't bloody remember/tell
  11. Yet one guy at the bspa is doing everything possible to stop the councils choice in taking charge. The councils choice is a speedway man and is currently a Co promoter elsewhere
  12. That's the team I'm expecting. 3 15 year old tho. But that is what the NL is about. Development
  13. I'd say so. Does this fit Bewley Bickley Jack smith Rob shuttleworth Payne Woodhall Woodhall
  14. The new owners could be millionaires we don't know
  15. Can u not stop being a troll for 1 frigging day and actually congratulate Leicester for saving the sport in the city. Well done all involved
  16. Did woffy even attend the training sessions in Croatia. Don't think he did. All though I could be wrong
  17. Leicester safe as per speedwaygb twitter page
  18. But who's down as the owner of kings Lynn speedway. Is it still buster or is Rob lyon down as it now. What's that website you can check on. Can anyone check on this??
  19. You all do realise Robert is still only 18 years old. Yes 18 years old
  20. Excatly, not all is lost. Let's hope this mess can get sorted. Maybe a gofundme page can be set of to raise a little amount of money to go towards repairs. Brandon may have been run down recently but it was still the best stadium in the league before the NSS was built.
