Although most people associate disability with wheelchair it's actually defined in much broader terms these days. Especially, in this instance, ambulant disabled who don't use a wheelchair and can walk but the distance they are comfortable with and the problems associated with that are very much specific to the individual's disability.

You have made some pretty bad accusations, Why not put your name out there, like Neil has... ?? Do you know Buster? I think not. So you have Neil saying the team was in budget, and you have Buster saying it was not. But this thread is about the BB parking situation and getting back to that, it is proven that Neil did what he could to help them and more. If the BB parking was causing a genuine concern, why not pay a man with a few cones a tenner an hour to make sure only BB holders parked in the parking provided and no one could take the pee.

You don't have a pair of purple chinos in ya wardrobe by any chance Great idea because Speedway is full of money isn't it? It's not like Buster's spent enough already another £30 a night for 15+ home meetings just to please a few people isn't going to hurt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The man saved our club and saved the league and he gets nothing but abuse for every single thing that goes on whether it's track conditions, 1-7's, results, other subjects. For his last two years my father needed a wheelchair and I was happy to take him anywhere he wanted to go. His last visit to Wimbledon stadium was for the Best in Britain meeting that used to take place on New Years Day. We used the bus to the stadium and then had to get from Plough Lane to the entrance which was on the far side of the stadium, probably somewhere around 300 to 400 metres on rough tarmac. At that time I was a fit 55 year old and it was hard work getting the wheelchair that distance. I have walked from the two gates at Peterborough to the main stand and the ground would be far worse for pushing a wheelchair than the tarmac at Wimbledon. I suggest you try pushing a 13 stone person for 300 metres over such ground before you say that it would be possible in 5 minutes with a wheelchair. You would be stuck in the ruts for three times that long and unless very fit you would take nearer to half an hour. I don't want to have a go at any promoter as without them we have no racing to watch. In the same way I don't have a go about riders who don't try, I don't think any rider doesn't try, they may have a meeting where things are not working the way they want and that may continue for some meetings but I am sure they are trying as that is how they earn their money and it they were not trying then their family would be on their backs straight away, it does not need us to make things worse. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't need to because I have given a constructive post on the topic. Buster must be quacking in his boots 43 signatures and counting. I bet half of those are from people who support Championship clubs and the BB parking has no baring on them. EDIT: That's what they all say. If I had a pound for everytime I read those words I could pay someone £30 a meeting out of other peoples pockets to manage the BB parking situation lol.

My other account was Trollslayer which is no more after the mods removed the account. I never had more than two accounts what I do is change my username on those accounts frequently just to change it up from time to time. if you click onto my account and see display name history you will see I change my name on that account frequently. That's all. Some paranoid people on here think every new account is mine and that I set up multiple accounts at the same time (They're wrong) I don't have 20+ accounts which they assume. I had two now one and like I said I change my display name frequently on those accounts just to change it up. You didn’t remove, the mods did, as you admit. So answer the question. Why the need ?

I've been away for the weekend so you may have addressed this already in your unwavering support for him, but do you think that the citing of an on-track death in Colin North as validation for this change?

You say above he shouldnt make changes to please " a few people " yet he has used the actions of "a number " (how many is that anyway)as justification for all this ?

Just curious how you fall down on this as you're clearly very supportive. Yes I did say that but that is because It will come in use for day to day life rather than one Speedway meeting now and then. Buster gets a pass because of the situation he cant go to extra expense just to please a few when he's already gone out of his way and spent thousands on saving the club and the premiership altogether. Funds are very tight for all clubs and everyone has to work within a budget. He's not in a position to people please no promoter or club is. He's in a position where he has to fight to keep the club and premiership running. If it means a weak 1-7 then so be it. I would rather have a weak 1-7 then have no club at all for example. I don't know what Buster's thoughts are so I cant comment on that but I will stick by Busters decision making as he personally spent his hard earned money in order to keep the club alive when he really didn't have to as he already had enough on his plate. Along the way we will have good times and bad times. Ups and downs. Some decisions will be popular some wont but I cant turn my back or crucify the man who saved the club. It's just wrong. BB Parking is not a popular decision but it's the decision that's been made by the saviour of the club now it might not be a popular one with a certain group but it's the decision that's been made by the owner and no petition will change it.

If you stopped being ignorant and woke up for a change you would notice Peterborough amongst many other clubs run at a financial loss per season. So you tell me why Buster should pay out even more money just to people please a select group when the club and Buster is already out of pocket running at a financial loss? Stop being ignorant and realise the times. Money doesn't grow on tree's. Buster cant pay out 24/7 as it's a struggle for any club to break even as it is. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the example provided in a £30 parking steward would lose money, i presume you're thinking that only a handful of bb holders won't turn up anymore is that right ? ie, less than the outlay for the steward ?

Jeez, ever heard of Google? Your understanding of disabilty is laughable. I said that the petition wasn't the best idea that Neil's ever had, but on reflection, it created a thread that the club shouldn't be proud of in it's 50th year and kept the topic going and ruffled some feathers so fair play to him. I don't know and don't care whether he has an agenda or not, has always be ok with me so I have no problem with him, apart from defending Horton's "please be upstanding for the National anthem". The only relevant bit in Chapman taking over the club is that this uneccesary discussion is taking place. Anything else on that subject deflects from the topic. Anyway, must go because it's work in the morning. You better do likewise because those cardboard dividers won't put themselves into those boxes will they? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
