Coventry Bees 2014

Looks like Coventry are going to track share with Leicester. Terrible way to treat the paying fans.

Where does that leave people with season tickets?

 

Why can't they work together to make the track racable?

 

Really, is that what was suggested?

 

Seriously looks like both parties are throwing their toys out the pram. Thought those days were behind the Coventry promotion. :wink:

It is poor for the fans to have this hanging over their heads as well as all the 3 year lease issue as well.

 

Needs some swift professional action.

Does all this not appear to equate itself with Coventry City FC anonymous people making statements which don't mean anything. I think we are in trouble, the stadium management the BSPA are very much there to be criticised about Sundays debacle, Mick Horton and gang were certainly to blame for the presentation for the National League match on a Friday night. I now fear for the future particularly the statement from Jeremy Heaver. I must say that Mick Horton blaming the woes on Stock Car racing is difficult to understand when he decided to run the Christmas a Cracker meeting four days after a Stock car meeting, that takes some understanding, as we know it didn't happen (Speedway that is). It's three months since that last stock car I don't know who us responsible but it needs some sense into the situation very quickly. Oh how could thus have happened in the days of Charles Ochiltree (Mr Speedway) now it's more like Dads Army, no professionalism, no precision, no atmosphere, just stand (sit) on a cold night and wait 25 minutes to see what happens next. Pathetic!!.

and even the DJ, who offered one spark in the presentation, has gone!

Apart from today the forecast is quite favourable and under normal circumstances the track should be ok for Friday. After today its only isolated pockets of rain and Friday itself is dry. Get the track raceable on Friday, cancel the NL meeting on the 4th then it will give them 2 weeks to get it spot on for the season.

A good question is. Why was the track not sorted out during the close season.

The stadium looked in terrible state on the Sky pictures I saw on Sunday. It all looked very run down a bit like stadiums in the 70's.

They have got a lot of work ahead of them to get the track racable for Friday. I they have the right people to do it maybe it is just possible.

But there seems to be more behind this than is actually being said

Let me ask a serious question where at Brandon is there any dry shale, to the best of my knowledge there isn't any usually a pile of dirty stuff at the rear of the first bend.

The problem area (bend 1) was completely re-laid a month or two ago. I think the rest of the track is ok. I don't think Sandhu wants to drive the bees out after paying for track work. As for the stadium it has the best facilities in the country which probably tells you more about the other stadiums in the sport than anything else.

More important issues for the bees fans , than what happens at P/Boro to be honest.

I didnt say there wasnt! Just passing on information some fans might be interested in. In future I will ask your permission to post on what our promotion and riders are doing at their other clubs. Happy?

What are the chances that it will be delivered to Brandon, Suffolk.. :)

Probably 99%.

Stick it on the P/Boro pages then, and those who are interested can read it. ;)

Yeah, should be on the Peterborough pages - however pis@ed myself laughing at the luck that Horton is having. Can anybody help with the Samaritans phone number for the guy

I did stick it on the Peterborough match thread. I find it relevent as he is our promoter who has had a nightmare start to the season, some of it his own doing but tonight it was very unlucky.Didnt realise stock cars were running, lets hope they can sort it this week then. Edited by woz01
