stevebrum Posted June 5, 2016 Report Share Posted June 5, 2016 He barely completes a lap at Lakeside. Having watched Davey Watt tootling around at the back last night though, I don't think it's possible for us to do worse Watt can't be as bad as Walasek surely? If the rumours are true regards Watt then like you say anyone that can put in 80% is 79% better at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Al Posted June 6, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 6, 2016 Spot on Al You maybe right you maybe wrong but the fact is that if you have got a good product people will come and watch and a sucessful team puts bums on seats. It takes a brave person to admit they got it wrong or made a wrong decision but it takes a bigger person to make those changes to get the right result I think mr and Mrs Hemsley have to thanked in there part for bringing speedway back to Leicester but like you said earlier do not live with your heads in the sand and ignore those around you that maybe know better Shirl Maybe he struggling with Black Country accent Case of muddle along till the season finishes, revolving door of riders at full tilt, then hope that some new and competent promotion & management come along (and it would involve DH being realistic about the selling price - if it's not gone bust by then, in which case somebody could buy it cheap). Then it would need to sport's admin and governing bodies, and the promoters in general, to come up with something better and suitable as far as the leagues is concerned. Leicester to make a sound decision on where to be within that structure. And finish the track re-vamp. If all that happens, there might be hope. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flagrag Posted June 7, 2016 Report Share Posted June 7, 2016 (edited) So the SCB have finally published Mr Hemsleys case on the website not good for the club or sport as he will not pay the fine. He deserves some of this but do think the fine is rather excessive and the ban means nothing to him as he is no longer the Promotor.

TonyE Posted June 7, 2016 Report Share Posted June 7, 2016 Seems like the 'authorities' have come down like a pile of bricks on Mr Hemsley what with the fines and costs etc. What now for Leicester? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flagrag Posted June 7, 2016 Report Share Posted June 7, 2016 Hopefully the SCB will change their stance of not allowing a new promotion to take over the club until fines and costs are paid as that is not something that they are responsible for and will only achieve in the club remaining closed. I can understand that they will not allow Yulia to take over and in my opinion that is a good idea as she is not very speedway oriented at all and is embarrassing in the pits with riders 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assuming I'm right, would any prospective new promotion be happy to pay the fine in order to operate what must be a loss making enterprise? Maybe not, flagrag is spot on there. I felt that the future wasn't looking too rosy before this, the SCB ruling certainly does nothing to make the prospects look any brighter..

flagrag Posted June 7, 2016 Report Share Posted June 7, 2016 I am sure that common sense will prevail if new promotors not affiliated with the Hemsley family come forward then the fine will be waived to enable the club to operate in the future.

Daniel Smith Posted June 7, 2016 Report Share Posted June 7, 2016 Steep fine, totalling over £9K A fine of £7500 in addition to the £300 fine imposed at the Meeting. Costs of the Court Hearing £1380 saying that, if he fails to pay and it actually ends up in a real court and the rulings are upheld Hemsley could find himself in deeper stuff Art 3.2.5 (Ungentlemanly Conduct) x 2 countsArt 3.2 9 (fraudulent comments) x 2countsArt 3.2.8 (an act of violent, threatening and abusive behaviour) x 2 countsArt 3.2.7 (acts prejudicial to the interests of the sport) x 1 count Those last three would be interesting to know about what actually happened 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SPEEDY69 Posted June 7, 2016 Report Share Posted June 7, 2016 So, he gets a bit het up and goes to see the referee - a £7.5K fine plus £1.4K costs and licence suspension seems a bit steep to me. There must be more to it than that? When we've seen behave in such a way towards other riders or officials I don't remember them facing such harsh penalties? Ultimately, could it see Leicester closed down? Taken over by Horton or is that just me touting a conspiracy theory? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Smith Posted June 7, 2016 Report Share Posted June 7, 2016 was it a female referee at the King's Lynn meeting? What he said could fall in the same category as the Eva Carneiro v Jose Mourinho court battle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ultimately, could it see Leicester closed down? Taken over by Horton or is that just me touting a conspiracy theory? Not paying or appealing the original £300 fine was a bad start. Not turning up for the SCB hearing was just plain stupid. If he doesn't pay up it comes out of the bond. was it a female referee at the King's Lynn meeting? What he said could fall in the same category as the Eva Carneiro v Jose Mourinho court battle The ref was Mick Bates. 3.2.8 includes non payment of fines, 3.2.9 will possibly be his reported outburst over the PA and probably his disingenuous statement in which he said he was standing down as promoter when in fact he'd been suspended for 2 weeks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What he said could fall in the same category as the Eva Carneiro v Jose Mourinho court battle No, the referee was Mick Bates. This was the meeting in which the referee (allegedly) turned the floodlights out by mistake, stopping the meeting for half an hour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Bump Posted June 7, 2016 Report Share Posted June 7, 2016 Well all this might help to explain why he had a face like a slapped arse at Beaumont Park on Saturday. No winners coming out of this situation. Grim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
