Not good and reflects poorly on the Masons. Think all outstanding money should be paid up before the club can be sold personally. I understand the family are tryingbto recoup done losses but negative press devalues the club more and no sale means nothing back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heathen52 Posted December 4, 2021 Report Share Posted December 4, 2021 Is this a similar situation to what Rob Grant found himself in at Newcastle last year, does the potential buyer start an entirely new company or purchase the existing company and the potential debts that go with it ?, and we all know what happened at Newcastle dont we..

I'm amazed there are still people prepared to take on all the hassle. Speedway fans are a rare breed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whilst the idea was good it was in the wrong place hardly anyone goes up that street, and trying to sell speedway in Erdington is like trying to sell glasses to a blind man. Brummies could do with stuff like speedway training schools etc to get kids interested, but I don't think the track owners would allow it.

When Buster Chapman took over Leicester he didn’t pay the riders who were owed by the previous promotion, they simply never got paid. Happened a number of times through recent years. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kester Posted December 6, 2021 Report Share Posted December 6, 2021 Desperately hoping for good news. Took my oldest daughter to Perry Barr for the first time last year and she really enjoyed it. Would be such a shame if she couldn't go again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve driven down the main road, not up Edwards towards the baths. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
