If they are good I may let them in if they pay what I want If what you say is true. Buster is going to go bust, taking on 3 teams to try and keep the Prem going , while had a good thing going with his King's Lynn !! Tell me how he is going to make money after buying 2 more clubs at this time in speedway when it's on it's arse and loosing money? Right or wrong he is trying to save the Prem. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

waytogo28 Posted January 26, 2019 Report Share Posted January 26, 2019 Not if Buster buys them all - just in time to "save" them. He will be like the Captain of the Titanic and Go Down with His Ship. He is very single-minded. And that is a compliment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midland Red Posted January 26, 2019 Report Share Posted January 26, 2019 22 hours ago, New era Panthers said: Garrity's form around the showground is not that great I think I've seen him have more falls than race wins, I think we would not be in a position to use Tungate as his average is 0.01 over what we have left to use up . I believe there is still a lot of unrest behind the scenes we are not getting to know about especially with Carl Johnson trying to gee supporters up with his rallying call to to boost morals and talk of an exciting replacement rider for Chris Harris. I just wonder what Ged's honest thoughts are at the moment , rumour has it he may just walk away and wash his hands of it all I presume you meant "morale" rather than "morals" !!! Or maybe not ??? 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scoobydoo Posted January 26, 2019 Report Share Posted January 26, 2019 If they signed Calamity Garrity they would be under the team limit and waste the points surely theres a better option nearer to the limit unless devious tactics are in place 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My thoughts exactly , I never thought he would buy Peterborough and the same applies to Ipswich, I bet there fans would have doubted it just the same as Panthers fans did , so like say never say never. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No mention that Chris Harris will be riding in it representing Somerset then , yet there are other ex Panthers named , Maybe Chapman thinks he will be too expensive. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

God works in mysterious ways and the ways of Buster are even more mysterious Well the more clubs he owns, the more money is set to loose if you believe that clubs are loosing money. He's a business man at the end of the day, with a good thing going at the AFA. I think he has short term ownership in mind for his 2 new clubs. With the idea of keeping the Prem going, rightly or wrongly in 2019, and take stock at the end of the season. Lynn got neglected a bit when he became chairman. God knows what it will be like now . But as you say, it's Buster we are talking about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
