SimonB Posted July 19, 2010 Report Share Posted July 19, 2010 Would not prefer to devote the right amount of time to sinking pints ? I always find enough time to devote to the sinking of pints What is the saying "I am a drunk not an alcoholic as alcoholics go to meetings" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SimonB Posted July 22, 2010 Report Share Posted July 22, 2010 Mildenhall Stadium owner Dave Coventry looks set to take over the promotion of the Fen Tigers, despite still being locked in talks. Coventry confirmed he is preparing a rescue deal for the West Row club, but stressed the matter is still being negotiated. Although both Coventry and outgoing owner Ray Mascall admitted that they have yet to agree on a price, it appears only a matter of time until mutual ground is found. National League co-ordinator Peter Morrish, who is handling the talks on behalf of Mascall, has cancelled Tigers' scheduled trip to Newport while the matter is resolved. They will not be back in action until August 1 at home to Buxton. Coventry said: "We are putting together a salvation package. although things are more expensive than I first thought." Mascall said: "I have had an offer from Dave, but am waiting until he comes up with a more realistic figure." Coventry, 55, purchased the Suffolk stadium two years ago with his brother Ron, under their RDC Promotions business. The duo have successfully run stock cars and greyhound racing at the circuit for 18 years. Interesting article by David Crane on the Mildenhall website. I wonder what a realistic figure is for a club that according to its riders hasnt paid its riders for three meetings and according to what riders have been told is losing money and has dropping attendences? I just hope they can come to a compromise as soon as possible and get the Fen Tigers back on track. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
