Dave Jones Posted November 14, 2017 Report Share Posted November 14, 2017 Surely savvy Promotions would move heaven & earth to get Coventry back into the higher divisions ? They always have had an excellent away following . .. I think you will find out in due course that the Telegraph report reflects what Horton wants to happen. Wobbler racing at a track some 20 miles away and calling them Coventry is an insult to the bees and the fans. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree , the Bees fans reportedly never turned out in numbers for National League fixtures ( I went once James Wright 18pt max Flawless ) So I would expect the AGM to place Coventry in the higher division ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevebrum Posted November 14, 2017 Report Share Posted November 14, 2017 What a come down from where we were Leicester national league team how can you call them Coventry Bees Cradley have used Monmore to keep their great name alive. Surely that's the point?? If Bees fans don't attend you may as well forget about any hope of any continued racing for the club. Surely this is great news for any Bees fan? 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think most fans would be happier putting their faith in the Save Coventry Group than Horton. They are a much more trustworthy bunch of people who appear to know what they are about and have the support of some influential people. I don't think it's essential that the team runs next season to be honest. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woz01 Posted November 14, 2017 Report Share Posted November 14, 2017 (edited) Would it work if Horton wasn't in charge, possibly. No way will this work with Horton in charge AND then the possibility of Brandon Estates helping out. Cradley have used Monmore to keep their great name alive. Surely that's the point?? If Bees fans don't attend you may as well forget about any hope of any continued racing for the club. Surely this is great news for any Bees fan? Not when there is a chance Brandon Estates are involved Edited November 14, 2017 by woz01 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SheffieldTigersFan Posted November 14, 2017 Report Share Posted November 14, 2017 (edited) Telegraph reporting that Mick Horton has agreed a deal for Coventry Bees to ride at Leicester in 2018.

Woz01 Posted November 14, 2017 Report Share Posted November 14, 2017 What this deal has done has put us fans in a difficult situation. Follow the side at Leciester where the 'the enemies' are running the club or don't follow and they then claim the support for the club is gone.
