Charlieboy Posted August 19, 2021 Report Share Posted August 19, 2021 To be fair to Buster he worked his ass off to get the track something like to no avail. I can see why he’s upset but then you’ve got rider safety. To most of the public the track looked raceable but what do we know. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
castrolargh Posted August 19, 2021 Report Share Posted August 19, 2021 The track looked rubbish from outside when the grader came out. This time, for the first time ,I saved my money and went home .seen it too many times before, buster scrapes the slop off then gets in a mood when riders done fancy it. Cant blame them, and for once I agree with troy batchelors usual take on things, if the track is crap, the entertainment is crap, so what would have been a late night watching a rubbish meeting became an early night. Apart from the poor so and so's who were inside the stadium waiting. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IainB Posted August 19, 2021 Report Share Posted August 19, 2021 If Matt Ford can't offload the Manchester United of speedway what chance has Buster got of selling the Kings Lynn Town and Posh of Speedway? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikebv Posted August 19, 2021 Report Share Posted August 19, 2021 To be fair fo the promoters.. When you have basically cobbled together a league structure, knowing it will be completely bereft of credibility by your actions, for the sole reason of providing circa 90 riders with 126 team places... And they then pick and choose when they will support you back... I can kind of understand how frustrating it must be.. But they run the sport, not the riders, and any buck ultimately stops with them.. As with many things in life... You invariably in the end, always reap what you sow.. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tellboy Posted August 19, 2021 Report Share Posted August 19, 2021 I don't blame Buster for his statement but i do hope he changes his mind.He worked his arse off to get the track rideable(Holder).Pretty sure as the refs went by me(home straight)they said it would be off,that was just as Buster started work on the track.Why didn't they tell him before he worked his arse off,did we expect anything else from the ref.Stead and Howarth was pleased it was off,they didn't half looked shocked though when Buster said what he did.Why couldn't a couple of riders have gone out for a spin to test the track? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bald Bloke Posted August 19, 2021 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2021 I was in the stadium from 6.15. Yeah it rained .It cleared .Buster bladed the track and it looked fine. I spoke to Alex and he said 6 out of 7 Tigers riders didn't want to ride. Buster lost his rubbish and said the 2 clubs are for sale. I have a pic of the bladed track on my phone and it was fine 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
