TTT Posted July 7, 2023 Report Share Posted July 7, 2023 (edited) If Buster truly cared about the club and it's fans then he'd hand the club over to Tomalin free of charge with immediate effect, Buster isn't fit to run a speedway club in 2023 and almost everyone has had enough of him. I'm surprised Rob Lyon has stuck around this long tbh. Edited July 7, 2023 by TTT 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair Buster didn’t build the Lynn team, or pay them this season.He stepped in after Alex left, to stop us closing I presume. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flappy Posted July 7, 2023 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2023 Buster now has 2 people on the outside that want to run the club with a team manager who's in with them. Johnson has the promotors licence Tomalin wants the club Let them have it and cut your losses 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has a value, even if it’s 10 to 20 grand for machinery and air fence. Why should he give it away?

Hackney Posted July 7, 2023 Report Share Posted July 7, 2023 I am surprised nobody has lost their rag and gave buster a dig ? Football fans would be queing up (not that I think it is the right course of action) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There must be other costs involved I would of thought.I’m pretty sure Buster would sell if the right money was offered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arnieg Posted July 7, 2023 Report Share Posted July 7, 2023 1 hour ago, Panthers70 said: The news of Johnson’s departure – leaving the Panthers, which is owned by Keith Chapman, without a licensed promoter – came as a bombshell just hours after they went down to their heaviest defeat of a dreadful season in which they have lost 12 of their 13 matches so far, at Leicester on Thursday night. Having finished at the bottom of the Premiership table last year, the team is heading for back-to-back wooden spoons with 11 matches left. I thought ever since Tim Stone it was mandatory to have two promoters,. Does this mean that Peterborough have been operating outside the regulations?

Flappy Posted July 7, 2023 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2023 Time for the Tomalin, Johnson, Lyon trio to take the club forward. We should always be grateful to Buster Chapman for stepping in when he did but the time is now right to step aside 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you sure that’s right? I’m happy to be corrected but I don’t think it’s legal to sponsor people on others behalf’s. There was a whole host of issues of this years ago when riders didn’t have the correct visas and then chopping and changing sides mid season. Tarasenko doesn’t ride for Plymouth or work for any of Philips’ businesses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because he can't cope when it comes to running two clubs at once, KL and Pboro can't even be competitive for the first 4 Heats let alone the full 15. Buster can save more than 20k if he gave the club away as he wouldn't have to pay the wages for Peterborough's 1-7 anymore which would be of interest to him imo.

This completely all costs move away from him mid season that's worth more than he can expect to get for the club Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
