Surely you can't think everybody has done a stellar job and the sport is going from strength to strength? -

Yeah, give me the PL featuring no show Ben Cook at No1 (or Jack Holder or Brady Kurtz... or insert the name of your favourite No1) backed up by Joe Thompson and Sam Hagon at reserve 😁 -

Ipswich to run 1 match at the very end of the season? 😉 -
Time for a new chairperson?
IainB replied to Racin Jason 72's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Some of the comments on this topic aged well (@mikebv 😉😂) I ran a poll on TwitterX the last time his position seemed untenable and the consensus then was he should be gone... yet here we are 3 years later. He's so far out of his depth it's embarrassing, he may be okay running sleepy Scunny but as a leader he's been about as effective as Liz Truss! -

To what end? Nobody can buy a season ticket 🤷♂️

Which is more than he did for Sheffield 😁 -
He was off his t1t5 on drugs at the time to be fair 😂

There was a lot of media and fan interest though... and the government even got involved!

Remember when Russia invaded Ukraine and the future of Chelsea FC was very much in the air? Was it radio silence then?

Oxford Spires 2026 ?

Wasn't Belle Vue based on Torun which was based on Bradford... everybody up the M62 then! -
Sadly sounds like you're finished then 🤷♂️

Will Louis even be at the AGM? I thought he resigned his directorship.

Like Andrew Formally Known As Prince?

I was listening to a non league football owner/chairman on talksport the other morning and the tale he was telling regarding the attempt at selling his own football club was very similar to the tale of the sale of Speedway clubs, just lots of time wasters coming forward and people doing it for their own hubris and failing to come up with the money when the time came to actually buy the club.

... just like they were at Cardiff for 20 odd years.

Meh

He could pull the plug on the Cheetahs if that also becomes unviable. There's maybe a couple of self imposed BSPL rules that could be broken. 1. A club with no home riding at another track 2. Another promotion running within the 25(?) mile range of another promotion -
So it was you that started the downfall of British Speedway! Send him down👨⚖️👎🏻 😂
-
Just like his brother last season then.

Different times anyway though, In this age of cancellation you don't even have to be found guilty of a crime to be cancelled. Speedway is currently so low profile it probably wouldn't make much difference anyway 🤷♂️
