My mistake and thank you

Whats all this Possible 2023 stuff? Eastbourne will run 2023 in one of the top two leagues, not NDL

Well its official now.

Statement from the clubs new management http://www.speedwaygb.co.uk/news.php?extend.39824

With regards to what may I ask?

We will need to stand by the club at this time and recognise that a new management team will have no control or links to Ian Jordan, I'm sure some positive news is around the corner..

The situation with regards the old management is very disappointing and has caused a lot of damage to the club, it will take time to re build it..

No rent would be doubtful but the landlords would take the takings at food and bar venues 100% If the landlord ran the speedway as a stand up company which I'm sure they would, it would run on income streams of ticket money and sponsorship only at a guess.

Yes, it will be a complete rebuild, Thanks Ian...

I agree, I thought he was the person to take the club forward and not try to destroy it for his own gain. Still, we move forward

No, it's more of a concern with supporters with season tickets and sponsors, both have been treated badly by Ian Jordan.

I personaly have not had anything back but I never expected too myself.. It would be nice to have a statement from Ian but only one man can do that

Agree, Tom has lost almost two years so far so this season is really his first full year out of the NDL

Mind the gap

And the south west of England breaths a sigh of relief...

Its time to draw a line under it now and look forward..

One man has done this damage, not the club. Promoters come and go but the club is far bigger than just one man..

A lot of people have lost money and you have to feel for riders, sponsors, fans and the impact on other clubs. With regards to a new promotion, I don't think brave, just a well thought out business model with investment up front. One of the main issues for me is the damage done to the fan base and some club sponsors, hopefully this damage will be repaired over time.

Richard is retiring, he was the media officer and had nothing to do with the finances

I agree with your points but not sure what this has to do with the old Eastbourne promotion over paying riders?

The downfall for Eastbourne started in late 2019 when Jon Cook negostated inflated rider contracts for 2020, this was honoured for 2021 and the financial rot set in..

I agree about Ian and always believe about the possibility of the other.. My understanding is different to yours with all due respect

For me and apart from the financial hangover left, thats all in the past now I prefer to look towards the future

So you would blame a new promotion for the previous promotions failings?

If there is a new promotion at Eastbourne I just hope the fans see it as a new start and their not tarnished by the previous management structure..
