Regards THJ This is all getting very personal and maybe the font of all knowledge should write an in depth, no holds barred synopsis of the wicked wrongs committed by the previous promotion. It would only carry any form of credence of course if it is was signed by the individual concerned in their own name rather than the insidious invitations to come and hear it in person as it really was. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Justgotmecpc Posted September 18, 2021 Report Share Posted September 18, 2021 If only people knew how Mr Newcastle speedway ( George ) ran it & never mind the VAT carry on & also his co promotion team .. I think fans would think hang on here what's been going on .. & Rob had to find out the hard way after some of the MOTHS came out the Newcastle speedway closet... So shame on the previous promotion for letting Rob grant to sort all your s@@te out.. it's a pure disgrace & I hope yous get what it coming to yous 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And as much as the attendances have been low this season, not having freeloaders getting in has been one of the positives. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StevePark Posted September 19, 2021 Author Report Share Posted September 19, 2021 IT is with great sadness that British Speedway Promoters Ltd has been informed of the passing of Dave Tattum. Dave was a loyal and long serving promoter at Stoke Potters for many years and joined Newcastle for the planned 2020 season. A well known figure throughout the city of Stoke-on-Trent, Dave was a hard working individual who could be seen at Loomer Road working on the track and facilities around the clock. We have been informed he passed away in the early hours of this morning following an illness which he battled with immense courage. Our thoughts are with Dave’s family and friends at this most difficult time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regards THJ Can this poster not answer for him/herself? To say the previous promotion have ‘took the p@ss out of the supporters for years’ is absolute boll@cks. They have provided many years of enjoyable entertainment to me and everyone else who attended. At no time have I had the ‘p@ss’ took out of me and I’m certain 99% of supporters feel the same way. What happened at the end and behind the scenes is a different matter and whilst I agree something ‘dodgy’ happened, it did not affect the man on the terrace. So how have they had the ‘p@ss’ taken out of them for years? Edited September 19, 2021 by Diamondboy Missed word 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So how have they had the ‘p@ss’ taken out of them for years? Whilst I agree somewhat with what you are saying once the M.O. of the previous lot was exposed I can also see the perspective from the other side and how some fans may have felt they have had the Mickey taken out of them once the shenanigans of the previous promotion came to light... Again as someone who invested in the product of the previous promotion and supported them financially you would think that me more than anyone should feel aggrieved especially when I found out where my cash was actually going however like your good self I have enjoyed the fare delivered up at Brough Park over the years for sure. However that enjoyment has been tarnished slightly by now knowing what has gone on... have I had the Mickey taken out of me... probably... but I would do it all again for a sport I really enjoy... Ignorance was maybe bliss at the time but now its out there as to what went on... well there are two sides to this and you can't take the emotion out either way... or the choice of words used... unfortunately Regards John 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diamonds85 Posted September 19, 2021 Report Share Posted September 19, 2021 The previous promotion may have entertained us all for years... But let's not forget that their backhanded 'dodgy' way of running the club's finances for all them years is one of the main reasons that today is the final meeting ever for Newcastle Diamonds... Among other things yes I know 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
