Cameron Heeps has patriality, even raced in the-then National League back awhile. Anyway, being a new promotion wouldn't stop Newcastle going through the ridiculously-expensive and time-consuming process of becoming sponsors, it's a Government thing, not BSPL.

It was your last point that I was alluding to. A past “in the know” poster, fortunately now headed off elsewhere, made much of how the Newcastle promotion were hard done by, having to buy the old company otherwise they wouldn’t have had a vote (untrue of course) and so on, so was just trying to correct some of the nonsense previously spread.

What an annoying wee nonce... okay you have got a bite (you've been trying for long enough)... and you have been told what the situation is... however on the issue to hand just about any company can be a sponsor... we (as a company) have just done it for one of our European Employees and as Crescent Girl points out it is time consuming but it isn't that expensive (we felt) and once you can show 12 months of trading you can apply for a Sponsors Licence. The important thing to note here is you should have 12 months of trading and produced a full set of accounts before you can apply to be a sponsor... it has nothing to do with the BSPL it is driven by the British Government and if you don't have 12 months worth of trading accounts you can not apply for the licence so being a new promotion with no trading accounts is a critical factor... 12 month into the job its a different story and you can apply for your own licence (or you can tie into another clubs licence which I wont go into here but it can be done) However costs for a licence are Type of licence Fee for small or charitable sponsors Fee for medium or large sponsors Worker £536 £1,476 Temporary Worker £536 £536 Worker and Temporary Worker £536 £ 1,476 Add a Worker licence to an existing Temporary Worker licence No fee £940 Add a Temporary Worker licence to an existing Worker licence No fee No fee I would suggest that Speedway comes under a small or charitable sponsor as you are usually a small sponsor if at least 2 of the following apply: your annual turnover is £10.2 million or less your total assets are worth £5.1 million or less you have 50 employees or fewer https://www.gov.uk/uk-visa-sponsorship-employers Furthermore the employee (in this case the rider) has to obtain a relevant visa and permit to enable them to enter the country and work which also has a cost attached (for someone)... its complicated until you get your head round it... so any Speedway fan who can get their head around the intricacies of the Speedway rules and regulations book will have no trouble with it as it is only half as complicated as they are... So don't keep trying to correct what you perceive as "some of the nonsense previously spread" as it is blatantly obvious you don't have a clue what you are talking about and worst of all because you don't know what you are on about you think it is okay to make up your own little version and stick it on here as being fact. All this has been covered in previous posts that you thought were nonsense then however hit the link and look at the facts and apply them to the situation to hand and you will see the facts (FACTS) for yourself its all there to read... There are none so blind as those who cant see... or aren't prepared to and who would much rather be an antagonistic little Pratt...

Regards THJ So with what you've posted there does that mean Newcastle will be running for the next few seasons then? Because obviously Rob Grant said numerous times last season how much money he was losing and couldn't continue to do so, so to go to the trouble of forking out for sponsors licence must mean he has the future in mind?

Sorry buddy as explained in my very long post some time back it wouldn't be right or appropriate for me to now comment on what the promotion will or will not be doing going forward... however there is some rational and common sense in what you are stating...

Diamonds85 Posted December 15, 2021 Report Share Posted December 15, 2021 THJ, please don't let the fools on this forum annoy you. You done wonders for our club in the many years you were involved and for that, 99% of us are eternally grateful, I am gutted that you are not as involved now but you have moved on. And I want to wish you all the very best in whatever you have lined up over in Cumbria. It's our loss and their gain. Cheers, don't make yourself a strange on here or at Brough Park, please? 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d love to see him back with us in the near future because he has a lot of potential. I thought it was the right thing for Rob to stick with him last season which will have offered good experience in the long run. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure, but do they not qualify under some sort of 'Commonwealth agreement'? No mention of riders as assets on the official liquidation paperwork.

No. The job of the liquidators is to take ALL assets and ALL liabilities. And then realise the assets to distribute among the creditors according to pre-determined rules. Rider contracts will not be part of liquidation as they will have been voided by the insolvency and the rights reverted to the BSPL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is also interesting is that, although much was made of a VAT liability, and the statement of affairs makes reference to a debt to HMRC of £158,048 it says that no claims were received for that amount which remained part of the statement of affairs at the final part of the winding up. Does that mean that much of the commentary made about the “mess” left by the previous promotion didn’t exist?
