New era Panthers Posted November 10, 2017 Report Share Posted November 10, 2017 heard nowt? Then you have the legacy of Chapman announcing on his appointment how he will make the sport more transparent, it could only happen in speedway. The authorities are turning the sport into a bigger laughing stock year on year and they, wonder why attendances are dwindling. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel that there probably was a conclusion on the 7th, and it could be a subject for the AGM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arnieg Posted November 10, 2017 Report Share Posted November 10, 2017 I feel that there probably was a conclusion on the 7th, and it could be a subject for the AGM. In which case the sport's governance is more dysfunctional than I thought. A hearing should be part of a quasi-judicial process and not subject to debate by committee. It would be like allowing MPs, who hadn't been in court to hear the evidence, decide the outcome of a trial at the Old Bailey. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You feel there was a conclusion or do you know there was a conclusion, which will go before a kangaroo court at the AGM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tsunami Posted November 10, 2017 Report Share Posted November 10, 2017 You feel there was a conclusion or do you know there was a conclusion, which will go before a kangaroo court at the AGM I don't know there was a conclusion, but it is strange there hasn't been a leak or announcement from one of the 4 parties involved. I can only think something needs to be clarified, or it has ramifications to be discussed at the AGM. Despite arnieg going overboard with his conclusion and insinuations, best to keep stum and wait for the truth rather than invent a troublesome false situation. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Despite arnieg going overboard with his conclusion and insinuations, best to keep stum and wait for the truth rather than invent a troublesome false situation. I can't see what troublesome false situation arnieg has invented. The only ramification which would be discussed at the AGM is if Godfrey has been found the guilty party, then his place as vice-chairman on the committee is no longer viable. Alternately, if Rathbone was deemed to be, the only difference to now is that his licence would probably be terminated permanently. So why can't a statement be issued so that supporters of the two clubs would know their fate. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Presumably as either position you set out would be very serious and one potentially could involve legal challenge then rather than rush out an announcement its correct to get the process right and watertight. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering the original problem was clarified in early August and we are now in November , the authorities should be well aware that an outcome or verdict is now long overdo and they should also understand why fans are not happy with this unstable position it has left clubs in. With rumours already flying around of certain clubs already doing deals with riders for the forthcoming season which in turn gives those clubs an added advantage over the other clubs that are still in limbo and unable to make any advancement towards there prospects for team building until a decision is reached Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well the ball is firmly in the hands of the SCB/ACU, I dare say they will issue a statement in due course. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Id be surprised if all parties dont already know the outcome but Id rather it take a little while for all to digest and accept than quick proclaimations be made only for further disputed positions to come out after. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you saying regardless of the circumstances the same penalty for everyone ? Cook versus Jack Holder ?. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wealdstone Posted November 13, 2017 Report Share Posted November 13, 2017 If the meeting has taken place , and we have heard nothing of any outcome . I would be more concerned as a Scunthorpe fan than a Panthers fan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plenty of negotiating still going on in the background and any outcome still possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
