Johnson has now become an embarrassment to Peterborough Speedway also. Carl should just tell Buster to go F himself tbh instead of telling him everything he wants to hear. We're going under so prepare yourself mentally that way it wont be as hard to take when the day finally comes because you expected it a couple of moths in advance. Lynn boys guest for us because they're crap and cheap. Simple as that. I do not blame Carl , fear he is just as much of a victim as the rest of us, set up as the fall guy from the very start. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buster is the messiah and should be revered as such. Buster is not the messiah, he is the bloke chucking a ton of money down a dirty great big black hole for your entertainment. I would imagine that isn't much fun whilst being constantly criticised, having people constantly taking the piss, having people constantly giving negative opinions (never positive, I might add) and also enduring the worst possible luck with riders getting injured. 4 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Scrutton Posted August 9, 2019 Report Share Posted August 9, 2019 If Buster lets the Panrhers go Belly/up he will lose a lot of money as a far as can see he owns nothing at the Show ground.?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, because he's wasting money we should kiss his a$$ and tell him what a wonderful job he's doing?? Totally ignoring the total contempt in the way he treats his customers?? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't think he said anyone they should kiss his a$$ and creep as you insinuate.But as Mick said there are certain people who will criticize,always negative and take the piss out of Buster.No matter what Buster does in some peoples eyes he will always be wrong.There is only a select few mind.If Buster walked away and left £1,000,000 to clubs he would still be lambasted by the few for one reason or another.

Mick Bratley Posted August 9, 2019 Report Share Posted August 9, 2019 I don't think anyone is asking you to kiss his arse, but not even Buster (as the messiah) can prevent riders crashing, getting injured and having loss of form. Essentially that is why it is not a wonderful season, not because of Buster's ownership. One club has to finish bottom (and I'm not convinced that will be Peterborough BTW) and the team that does finish bottom is usually the one that suffers the worst of luck with injuries and loss of form. IMO he most certainly does not hold the customers in contempt, he rarely speaks and you know what, I don't blame him because he's damned if he does and damned if he doesn't. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His excuses for that didn't fly with me, and i suspect many others as well... 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harris out and Tungate in was an improvement for Boro and Ipswich Cook had never signed a contract so perhaps the error lays with him being announced when not 100% secured....

I think you’ll find that if Harris hadn’t gone to Ipswich there quite possibly wouldn’t have been a top league this season and in any case Tungate for Harris is looking a pretty good swap right now. As for Cook, Buster never actually had a signature on a contract did he, that’s hardly his fault, and Cook wouldn’t adhere to the rules that Buster set for all his clubs but in the end had to back down. I really think the crap that Buster gets is unjustified, I honestly believe that if he hadn’t done what he did you would have nothing to moan about right now. Honestly some people on here really need a Speedway financial reality check. Big time. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is common that with new ownership (of the club) comes a different business model, and it has been identified that to operate at Premiership level, some cost measures are now required.The promotion are working hard to find Chris alternative employment within Premiership Speedway, so the British fans can still witness his skill and flair on the track. Some honesty goes a long way in this world, and Panthers fans never got any.. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
