Dale allitt will step in a be manager for remainder of season. Or potentially Carl Johnson ?

Can anybody enlighten me on who Dale Allitt is? Where did he come from? Ex-Rider, mechanic, sponsor, businessman, fan?

The sacking of Craig Cook is what everything comes down to. Should've got rid of Proctor & Bridger for Lawson and one other.

Cook, Lawson, TJ, Riss & Kerr as a Top 5 would've got you a Play-Off place imo.

Agree. We could of had Lawson for Ty, and still been under the limit. As for Bridger, Almost everyone knew he wouldn't do a season. Must of cost Buster a few quid.. Bet he won't make that mistake again.

Dale Boy talk to me - Dale is a protege of Jimmy Lynch, possibly the finest manager of speed of all time, now in semi-retirement but working as a consultant for me at T Tibbs Motors Europe Limited, where is he advising me on everything Brexit and beyond.  Jimmy's connections in Poland, Latvia and most recently the Ukraine, where he has introduced me to the stunning Sylvie who is now working alongside my lead Consultant Main Man Rogers on the production of bed time stories for the 7-10  year age group.  Did you know that Main Man Rogers used to read Johnny C a bedtime story every day whilst his Dad Busty was busy on his tractor?

Ah, back on topic, well Jimmy Lynch met with Dale at the Gymnasium where he and his tag team partner Big Blayne Scroggins were training to be wrestlers,  they went on to have a some exposure on World of Sport under the guise of the Masked Marauders, taking a terrible beating from the Mums and Dads favourite Big Daddy and his tag team partner The Farmers Boy!  Jimmy Lynch was their valet, accompanying them to the ring wearing a gold chain he borrowed from Boogaloo Bobby Schwartz and string vest that Totally Honest John lent him, honestly! Jimmy looked the part, but sadly a belly butt from Big Daddy saw him disappear over the top and he returned looking very shaken if not stirred by the experience!

Thank you goodnight, much love!

I don't blame Buster at all,right call imo.Awful decisions during some matches and excuses after matches he had to go.Hopefully it doesn't go to Allitt because I'm pretty sure he'll want it.

Stars miss out on another up and coming rider, as Josh Pickering has signed for Sheffield. Perhaps Sedgman will replace Wells in the team instead. 

Would take us over the limit by 0.26.

I think Buster needs to take some blame for the Stars starting 7 this season. No blame for the in match decisions though.

I think Buster is also reasonable for the track? It can look superb but with the high clay content can be vey unpredictable for the riders.

Think Allitt needs to take most of the flak for the starting 7.

I believe Allitt is a co promotor these days. Probably to take a bit of the work load from Buster, with 2 clubs to run.

You could well be right Tel. It's possible Buster left the team building to Dale. I don't suppose we will ever know exactly. But i'm pretty sure Buster would of signed the team off, as he is the money man.

I would like to know if the same person assembled both teams. If so, they could of evened them out a tad :lol: The panthers look an expensive team to me. Hans, Bjarne  Bomber and Scotty, i doubt would be cheap for their averages. Where as Lynn, not so much. 

Anyway, it is what it is now. We have to try and make the most of it. We replace riders, but never seem any better off. It must be frustrating for Buster. Cause it sure is for me :wink:

I can’t believe Buster gave anyone any say in how his business is run.   I would suggest Allitt might have done the leg work but the yes or no on each rider came from one man.

The amazing thing is that Buster and Dale, both being experienced Speedway men could look at that team they had put together and think it had  anything other than a wooden spoon look about it.
