Yes, I know all about assets, that's what I meant even if it didn't come across that way. If the Birmingham management have not offered, or not thinking of offering Sheldon at least one more run out with the club, they are missing a really good opportunity IMO.

Not true - NL clubs can retain assets. This was amended and agreed upon at last years AGM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jayne Posted July 10, 2018 Report Share Posted July 10, 2018 1 hour ago, Richard Weston said: I had heard but I think there is a limit on what NL clubs can get. Is that true, Jayne? If the limit is reasonable, I think that works for everyone. I would be interested on the Buxton 'take' on the current situation, bearing in mind the club's past record in bringing people on. There is indeed a structure and limit to the fee which was accepted by everyone. As things stand within the sport there had to be a compromise and thankfully after a lot of discussion a positive outcome was reached. As for Buxton's take on the situation we were happy with the outcome and I think all clubs have to be realistic with what they are prepared to pay and accept for a rider.

brianbuck Posted July 17, 2018 Report Share Posted July 17, 2018 As far as the situation with Gary Flint is concerned, according to the Speedway Star, it seems that the BSPA initially issued a Press Release highlighting the prospect of Birmingham's team featuring a father and son combination, but shortly afterwards, withdrew it. Clearly they initially approved Birmingham's application to track Flint the Elder, but later decided (or were persuaded) to rescind this. If this was the case, then you could say that both party's were correct - Birmingham to name him in their team, and Buxton to object to it!

At no point were Buxton right to object (assuming they did) imo. The result was a given regardless, the BSPA had said it was ok, Gazza hardly pulled up any trees all them years ago, and how great for Leon to have a ride.

Wasn't as if Brum were using him to 'win' the match....it was nostalgia and desperation! ! However, Buxton promoters said that they would allow it, if Mr Rogers could produce the permit ? (according to one of Jayne Moss's threads?) Why didn't Laurence produce it ????????? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thought it would be OK. There are rules – end of, no discussion. As I said in an earlier post, the Shanes incident back in 2016 was ridiculous. You won the argument, such as it was (there wasn't one really), you won the match, you won the cup. Fair enough. Except you won't let go, you're like a dog with a bone. Move along now, nothing to see here. Edited July 18, 2018 by Leicester Hunter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
