Buster has to leave the club if this isn't our last season in the Sport,.

Someone needs to pay what he wants for the club then ain't they, rather than playing 'Fantasy Speedway' & hoodwinking the fanbase?

But it's all Buster's fault ya know :rolleyes:

It's worth nothing. The supporters club gifted the equipment to the club not Buster.  Anything of his by all means he should be paid for.

Only worth buying if we have a guaranteed future after this season.

Another dreadful season in store for KL and Peterborough, Dreadful decision making in the winter has already led to both clubs needing new riders.

KL will get dragged down with us the longer Buster stays, More Jorgensen and budget sides that aren't up to scratch at Lynn with no play-off Speedway so KL fans should be siding with Tomalin purely due to the fact that it will benefit KL in the long run.

Buster owns the club, he sees value in it. Pay what he wants or deal with what you're getting. 

The problem for you guys (and absolutely get the upset) is some Billy Bigbollox sold the fans a pipe-dream then didn't hold to his end of the bargain. 

The only way to remove Buster at no cost is find a track outside a 10 mile radius of the current club & become a totally different name. 

Buster isn't your problem

But he is. 

MT has found land for the club but needs to own it.

I no longer go to King's Lynn Speedway at all because of our owner. I made my choice. You can make the same choice you know.

The choices are quite simple

  • Put up with it
  • Don't go

Until someone pays the value for the naming rights that Buster sees value in, you'll have to fight with your own mind on whether the sports still worth it to you.

Yes there would be a ban - Nicki would be deemed to be withholding his services and get a 28 day ban along with a 28 day facility granted to Peterborough. 
 

With regards your second point, this is what pi$$es me off so much with British speedway promotions. Everybody is well aware Nicki has left yet you hear nothing from the club who treat their supporters like muppets. Almost straight away they should have come out and said “Nicki has left and we are working on our options” instead of the silent treatment which makes the whole situation worse. It will be embarrassing tomorrow and have such a worse effect when he isn’t there, especially after banging in 18 points last night in Poland. 

I try not to compare football to speedway but there is no way this sort of situation goes on. You only have to look at the recent scenarios with Chelsea, Spurs and Leicester with their managers. All 3 confirmed a departure right away and said they would be working on replacements and will update in due course. Communication with your fan base is so important nowadays.

What would he get a ban for ? He can still ride in Poland and he’s quit British speedway so what’s the point of the ban ?

But it's not worth anything essentially if it's naming rights I'm afraid that's enough reason to want him gone

Defo No.2 for me if an adequate replacement isn't signed.

No interest in watching a replay of 2022 so I'll chuck the towel in without hesitation this time around tbh.

It's worth everything TO THE FANS unless you're quite happy to move wait until the Showground closes then be called "The Pansies of Peterborough" or something. 

"Peterborough Panthers", wherever it goes, has to be paid for and Buster owns it.

But without somewhere to stage speedway the name is worth the square root of sweet FA

If only Buster put his toys back in his pram then this situation has a simple solution.

Just give Nicki Pedersen's contract to Chris Holder and I guarantee that Noddy would snap Busters hand off after everything that's gone on this winter knowing full well he wouldn't get a better contract at another British club and that he's not worth the money being offered to him.

Club were going to splash out an X amount of money on Pedersen so it's not like they'll have to find any more money.

Both Chris Holder and Troy Bachelor are on ACU licences but due to grudges from the owner won't be signed to the detriment of the team. 

I'd be stunned if you ever see  them pair in a Buster team. I don't think any other club owner would after that night either, and rightly so imho.

As I’ve said before only way Holder will line up for Pboro is if the club is sold - that’s the only way it ever happen.So Tomalin needs to dig deep and buy Buster out both Panthers and Stars would benefit from this sale .
