semion Posted July 19, 2021 Report Share Posted July 19, 2021 (edited) Let’s hope Brady doesn’t accept the infamous Calculator Mainman Rogers had in his brief spell at the Club. Then again being an Estate Agent he might know how to use it correctly. Edited July 19, 2021 by semion 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A inexperienced fan having the responsibility to run a speedway team.....has clueless Buster lost what bit of sense he had....?? Yes. Alex good luck pall, coz you will certainly need it. PS. Realistically you don’t stand a chance so don’t give up your day job! Why is it desperate and bizarre?Did you say the same when Rob Lyon was plucked from the terraces.And we all know what happened when they took him from the terraces.Well you do if your an experienced fan and know your speedway.He didn't give up his day job neither.

Terry Tibbs Posted July 19, 2021 Report Share Posted July 19, 2021 Guzumped talk to me! There I was in the log cabin concluding a deal with Busty for Jimmy Lynch & Main Man Rogers to be his team managers,when this dude in his XR3i shows up, shouting “sold it geezer! 1.5% commission, it didn’t even go on right move, where do I put my board?” Slick back hair, suit from Next and shiny shoes from Barrats! I couldn’t compare with such suave! Before I know it Busty offers him the job there and then! Main Man Rogers is heartbroken had his resignation to Mase typed up too! I’ve assured Main Man Rogers and Jimmy Lynch I’m slipping Busty a few hundred quid to sponsor the Stars next year! On the proviso that T Tibbs Motors Europe Limited’s operations director Jimmy Lynch is named Team Manager and our head of customer relations Main Man Rogers will be his assistant. I’ll even throw in a lovely Renault Clio Convertible for Big Dale! You know it’s a deal you can’t refuse Busty!!! 2 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every club has stands full of team managers. I wish him the best but if he does badly & gets sacked then I guess the Stars will be needing a new team sponsor too?

waytogo28 Posted July 20, 2021 Report Share Posted July 20, 2021 A reward for sponsorship. Cannot be anything else other than Alex's ongoing love affair with what is left of the sport. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
semion Posted July 20, 2021 Report Share Posted July 20, 2021 How come Roger Warnes never got the job? He’s ploughed 100’sK into Lynn Speedway. Does he still have to pay to get in these days ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have to agree - was a main sponsor ploughed a lot of money into the club -he lived and breathed KL speedway and was dropped and had to pay to get in as you say . Money talks I guess and if a bigger offer comes in to sponsor the club I guess most would go with it - But there wasn’t a more loyal sponsor than Roger and his wife but loyalty counted for nothing in the end .

I guess that’s a dig at me and many many more that’s stopped going for various reasons over the last few seasons - As for Roger I’m pleased he does go he loves his speedway - but should he really have to pay to go into a meeting? after all the sponsorship money he put into the club ? I no the line has to be drawn somewhere on letting people in free obviously but I personally think Roger has been put on the wrong side of the line .

Why would that be a dig at you and many others?The way i read it is Trees just said Roger keeps coming so must be happy paying.Roger is a good man and maybe he prefers to pay anyway rather than going in for free.Has anyone asked the question or are people just assuming.Other former main sponsors pay too you know.

semion Posted July 20, 2021 Report Share Posted July 20, 2021 Of course Roger would pay. What’s 20 quid to a man like him. More a principle at stake here. As I understand it that was the reason Mrs Roger stopped going. Not sure if she now attends again or not. Just great to hear a man like Roger still keeps coming. I hope I still have that level of enthusiasm when I’m his age. Where would the Sport be without the likes of him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Speedtiger Posted July 20, 2021 Report Share Posted July 20, 2021 KL are in a desperately sad situation, run in an amateur way by the clown Buster who has also overseen the biggest downturn and destruction of speedway in history as recent chairman of the BSPL, a poor team thats bottom of the league by a mile and appointed the new team manager who’s a bit of a ‘fan’, what a joke, the true KL fans must be ashamed. No wonder fans have walked away from a Micky Mouse club. To boot the club must be loosing a fortune and clueless Chapman hopes an estate agent will save them, IMO he’s not got a chance. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
