Since CJ left Buster in the brown stuff, i think he's done his best for the team myself. Patryk, Laguta, Vadim and Harris in. Maybe you could of had a team like that from the off with a "big" sponsor. Although my guess would be that someone is funding Laguta.

Maybe trying to give you a big send off? Must still be around imo because someone other than Buster has to be paying for Laguta. Laguta would've still been at KL with Lambert if Buster was paying for both as KL only have 5 riders now after injuries to Klindt and TJ.

It does help with general planning and order but if a redeclaration is being made that overrides that order anyway so imo new live averages should be used Same with situations like Woofy be named as an injury replacement even though he wasnt available. The sole purpose was to ensure the 28 days ended prior to the transfer deadline If he wasn't available the 28 day facility should not have been granted The Laguta/Lambert and postponement farce another Some will say "isn't it just great to have these riders back ". I'd say yes but not at the expense of any semblance of integrity (although accept that is thin on the ground regardless) No doubt when the next installment of Sheffields magic roundabout kicks in we will see more hokey cokey games at Leicester too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a PS That Cook signing was the catalyst to me basically stopping attending Up to then I hadn't missed a home meeting aside from planned holidays for around 35 years (effectively when I could attend unaccompanied) I'd gone away most seasons to around 20-25% of meetings (work commitments prevented more) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the club's future still in the balance despite the outward messages then there is everything to ride for. We need publicity, good crowds and success on track. It's all come too late I agree but Laguta/Tarasenko and the other lads should fulfil two of those criteria and we need the crowds to turn up to fulfil the third.

The crowds have been there all season though despite the crap that they've had to put up with..do you think another couple of wins might prompt someone to buy what's left of the club and fund a new stadium?..I get what you're saying but I just can't take British speedway serious anymore and I guess this makes me more comfortable with losing the club..which I'm afraid is inevitable now...but I do hope I'm wrong.

Since CJ bailed. Buster has got Vadim. Paddy, Bomber and Laguta. MT was going to turn you into the "Man City of speedway" . I'll leave it there.

Thats no real difference to when Bomber rode for his then club Leicester at BV then rode for the Panthers at Wolves as a guest in the evening earlier this season . Nick Morris also did the same 2 meetings in the one day . Edited August 28, 2023 by scoobydoo 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
