Doesn't matter what teams turn up to the NSS, Belle Vue could be beaten. It's all about 'on the day'. Peterborough will get battered, Belle Vue are far better and will win easily.

Pinny Posted April 23, 2023 Report Share Posted April 23, 2023 People keep saying Tomalin should buy the club, what if Buster has slapped an absolutely outrageous price tag on it? Which he probably has. if Tomalin wants to buy the club and invest in a new stadium and it wont happen because Chapman is asking for way too much then you can absolutely understand why their fans are against him. at the end of the day, it cant be worth much at all. Its a failing business in a stadium that isnt theres. A few rider assets which are next to worth next to nothing anyway, along with a couple of tractors and an airfence? It is more than likely Chapman wants to sell it for more than he paid for it and Tomalin being a good business man wont pay the money for something that he feels isn't worth it. You could view it as Buster being a good businessman and wanting to make a profit too i guess but seeing as he has no intentions of moving the club to a new stadium, and this being there last at the Showground, I would be pretty p****d off as a Peterborough fan as well. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An idea then, MT pays what he thinks it's worth, if Peterborough fans are that desperate, they can club together and pay the difference to what Chapman thinks it's worth. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What about the Peterborough Pirates? We have two Tigers so why not have two Pirates? Or the Penguins? Pilchards? Pandas? Parrots? Pigs?

szkocjasid Posted April 23, 2023 Report Share Posted April 23, 2023 I think Panthers will do a lot better than most expect, I'll go for: Belle Vue 48 - 42 Peterborough 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just been on the website... Wow.. Never seen as much "Red" showing on the day of the match ever I would think.. Even AB has about 75% availability. Hopefully the South Stand is rammed as the parking there is full, and they get a good "walk up" crowd for the main stand... I know my business drops money nowadays on the week/weekend before pay day as people tighten their belts and tend to then "splash out a bit" when they get paid on the 1st.. Maybe Speedway one week out from pay day is something that will be sacrificed by a fair few? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The failed Somerset relaunch earlier this year came across this problem from the old promotors even though we haven’t ran since covid.

Bollocks , youd be the first one crying like a baby if Lynn were to close at the end of the season and Buster wouldnt sell to someone who had plans to move them to a new stadium. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
