Steve0 Posted December 21, 2017 Report Share Posted December 21, 2017 12 hours ago, Danny Connor said: I'm never going to be a fan boy over a big name signing again after last season. I guess I'm a cynical person now with it. Doyle was missing so many heat 15s for Swindon. That sort of thing bugs me a bit. Probably because he was riding with a broken foot for most of the season. When he was needed to ride in Heat 15 - he was there! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The whole Holder debacle was regrettable, but we shouldn't let the actions of one rider (who was struggling for form) ruin any excitement about future big name signings. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He also has a Stock-cars Business should he need to fall back on I'm pretty sure Buster doesn't own the merchandise stalls, and also I think the stock are run by a different company that pay rent to Buster Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Speedball Posted December 21, 2017 Report Share Posted December 21, 2017 It's a moot point discussing Doyle because as I understand it, he's not coming. i also noticed a rider seemed happy on twitter yesterday and the most recent people he's followed are Dale and two (potential) new team mates. Seem to point he's in the mix for a team spot. Wont spoil the fun by naming him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TSR (the promoters) get the gate receipts, Chapman gets all the catering receipts. Dont know though how the running costs are split between the two.

The comments were made to illustrate the dire situation our sport is in and the pressures placed on the shoulders of the promoters. The comparisons between Buster and the majority of the other promoters, were to highlight different scenarios that each exist. Probably Buster doesn't own the merchandise but the point being made, is he would take a draw from it. as he would with everything else that is sold on the night. This is something most promoters wouldn't get. Whether Buster runs the Stockcar or not is irrelevant. The point that was that the StockCar provides another form of income, so if the speedway did go disastrously wrong, all wouldn't be lost. Having spoken with you a number of times face to face, I thought you came across as a decent chap. but then again, probably I was wrong on that as well .

Just seems a bit random for him to suddenly follow 3 Lynn related accounts in one go. Think the conversion rate is 1.3 so that would make him 5.50. Means we should always have a strong reserve (either Kerr, Rose or Proctor) to partner Andersen. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Smith Posted December 22, 2017 Report Share Posted December 22, 2017 Looking poor if you ask me, even with the inclusion of NKI 1. 2. Lewis Kerr 5.06 3. Thomas Jorgensen 5.93 4. Ty Proctor 5.50 5. 6. Gino Manzarez 4.19 7. Kasper Andersen 4.00 Ave: 24.68 Remaining: 17.82 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depends if they use his established top flight average which given that the likes of Woryna still can hold on old average that might force Proctor out of any top flight team.

Kasper Andersen 4.00 Ave: 24.68 Remaining: 17.82 A very ordinary Championship side if Iversen isn’t included- but that’s were we are at the Premiership isn’t much stronger than the Championship- at this stage of the winter I’m normally getting excited towards the new season so far I’m not even looking forward to the new season even the clubs that’s signed riders there is nothing new nothing to get excited about sadly as for Lynn they might as well get on announcing the team as it will be more or less common knowledge by the supporters get together in January.

Replace him with Lewis Rose. Lewis Kerr at reserve. Adding Iversen & Lambert is a must. I'm sure Niels will be back, all the signs point that way. Guess depends on what happens with talks with Robert. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
