Still no explanation for the late withdrawal from Buster.. The messages do seem to indicate the club felt very "let down" by his actions.

Daniel Smith Posted May 25, 2018 Report Share Posted May 25, 2018 For a BSPA Chairman he certainly is failing in knowing how to conduct himself. If it's family reasons they'd of said so whoever phoned on his behalf. The fact they called on the day and ask for nobody to try to call him is nothing short of abysmal and pathetic.

I think your anti Lynn are not justified this season, but I agree about Buster.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Argos Posted May 25, 2018 Report Share Posted May 25, 2018 I’ve a lot of time for the NSSC and all the good they do for young English riders, They get a lot of publicity on this forum it’s very amiss of them not to state the reason Buster give them for his non appearance, It’s all well and good asking fans to attend there meetings, but if a guest doesn’t turn up them said fans deserve the reason why.

He must have given some reason for his non appearance, as he didn’t just not turn up, as 2 hours before the start time it was put on this form that he would not be attending Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the thing, I'm not anti Lynn at all. I'm still a King's Lynn fan I just dislike the owner and that's the only reason I don't go. I don't like how things are run a King's Lynn and any of my money going in his back pocket. How he's behaved towards the NSSC is nothing but disgraceful and is totally untrustworthy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No reason given and not to call him back Aha! he sussed it out that some fans would try to struggle in very difficult questions, perhaps even some embarrassing ones. Without Rob Godfrey there to back him up there might have been a series of " I'll have to get back to you on that one" answers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm afraid we were never given a reason. This event took a lot of planning and was going to be one of our biggest events of the year so it has been very disappointing. However we do not want to fuel a witch hunt. In the end we had a great evening in the company of the ever professional Steve Brandon with an upbeat update from Jeff Davies on the latest situation at Brandon and a chat with Dan and Joe Thompson on the No Limits programme. For many years we have enjoyed great support from all walks of speedway life. Riders, team managers, referees, promoters and the media. They all give up their time to entertain and inform us and all proceeds from the events go to support Neil Vatcher and the GB Young Lions U16's. We are proud of what our little club achieves and the support we have. Our next event is a welcome return for Somerset's Debbie Hancock on 7th June (no pressure Debbie) We then have a special night on 21st June when all proceeds will be for the Speedway Riders Benevolent Fund. Our guests are Paul Ackroyd, Garry Stead, Stuart Robson and as Paul said one of his best customers, Adam Roynon. We have a couple of surprises planned and a raffle and auction to try and extract as much of your money as possible. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why is Chapman not held accountable??.. he did not turn up this year should be his last the sport is in worst shape now than before he took over.

I suspect that he remains a loose cannon because he is a Man with a Plan ( allegedly ) and no one has a better one at the BSPA. And they know the job is a poisoned chalice.

cityrebel Posted May 30, 2018 Report Share Posted May 30, 2018 Did anyone really expect him to turn up. Why would he put himself in the firing line, to answer a load of questions about his latest balls up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waytogo28 Posted June 2, 2018 Report Share Posted June 2, 2018 (edited) No but a decent human being would apologise in person ( at least via a telephone call ) and give some explanation for their absence along with a reason, as well as offering to do the booking sometime in the future. Hmmm. Don't put yourself up for High Office and expect only bouquets and no brickbats. If you wear the smiley mask at all times, people do begin to suspect the reasons you wish to be The Boss.
