Actually think it makes the play offs. The NP signing will take the heat off of buster for sure and buy them some time to sort everything else out. Pedersen Andersen Basso Worrall NKI Cook Jenkins Basso will struggle there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LisaColette Posted February 19, 2023 Report Share Posted February 19, 2023 Kinda puts Ben Cook in an awkward position? Considering he's friends with Chris. Maybe he should have chosen a different club! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buster is a savage tbh. The club would be the ones splashing out on a race suit - especially given it’s completely dropped the red element of the usual Panthers design to incorporate all the purple of Tomalin’s company. It’s a pretty sorry mess and the typical scenario where nobody really wins. Chapman ends up looking like a d!ck, Holder ends up looking like a d!ck and left without a British side. Nobody really wins. On the flip side I hope Pedersen comes in to replace him as regards of what some have said and his injuries he is absolute box office.

Buster gave Holder a job after Poole dumped him because of a high average.. He let Buster down the fans down, his team mates and himself down that night. He didn't give a toss. Can't agree with Buster at all here, dropping Holder is fine, that's his prerogative but to only announce it after the transfer window has closed is childish & unprofessional! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is allowed to be annoyed, and Aussie's tend to very vocal with situations like these. Is Josh Pickering the only Aussie Buster hasn't had a problem with?? Maybe he should realise the problem isn't them, it is most likely, him?? Edit - also noticed Batch commented on it pretty quickly!

It could be said the same of Holder I guess.. He ruined the season for the Stars that year.

He ends up looking like a d!ck because instead of a well worded statement, he’s sabotaged the launch of the new team colours out of spite and comes across as totally unprofessional. He’s got every right to feel aggrieved but have some respect. I never really liked Holder when he was at world champion standard but have grown to quite like him over the last couple of seasons in Poland - but you see things like this and remember why I disliked him before.

I am a big fan of Chris Holder, chatted to him at the play off final meeting, my daughter used to a big fan too, probably for different reasons!! I was at that particular meeting at Kings Lynn and if I was a Kings Lynn fan, I would also be appalled and disgusted by their actions that night and I don't blame Buster for being unforgiving especially as all our team didn't seem to have any issues with the track including Jack Holder. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doolan Kozza Rusty Harrison Masters Glenn Doyle Shane Parker Crump Adams Travis McGowan Boyce Generally any who don't think they are Bertie Big Balls. Even Darcy had a season without falling out with him. Wouldn't for a second pretend that Buster is easy to work with or for (and if you p!ss him off you're toast) but Ben Cook would be advised to get his head down and do his job I'd have thought. He can learn a hell of a lot from Iversen, Pedersen & Andersen if he does. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually a few respected riders have liked it as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
