Exactly, guests can always be found, & the money he would have saved if Laguta was missing would have paid for decent guests & R/R for Laguta.

Why must there be more to it and why is it always Lynn and Buster with the drama? Who else has postponed meetings for any reason other than the weather? The bloke lies about heart attacks, lies about broken pit gates because he’s missing a few Danish lads, and has form (as shown above) for postponing meetings in the past for not legitimate reasons for postponing meetings! The bloke is a pi$$ taker pure and simple. 34 minutes ago, Bagpuss said: I don't think this is comparable though.....they've gone to the BSPL/Phil Morris and sought permission to postpone. I'd agree with Ipswich being awarded the points if that's what had been decided, but at the same time season ticket holders and the riders themselves (particularly those on fat guarantees) lose out. Sanctions had to happen in order to deter clubs doing it in the future. I think the chances are miniscule but if Lynn were to win the restating then Ippo would have every right to be mightily peed off. Definitely feel that there is something we're not being told as one guest and R/R isn't enough to cancel. But it's pretty clear we've never been told the truth about Laguta's absences. That’s Busters problem and down to him to reimburse those affected! You don’t run the meeting you forfeit the meeting simple as that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FromBendThree Posted August 16, 2023 Report Share Posted August 16, 2023 I can’t see the Stars in top flight next season. Doubtful in my book as to if they run at all. As it stands, Premiership would be a 4TT. Is there any appetite from Poole, Glasgow to move up? What happens if they say, no thanks? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not like the BSPL can ring every available rider and check It's simple the fixture goes ahead or Ipswich are awarded the points 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They want a play off place - bet Witches fans are pleased Chapman didn’t get his hands on there club or they’d be in the same mess as Lynn and Pboro The best thing that never happened he would have been a disaster Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because the postponement wouldn't of been allowed with 2 riders missing imo. Wouldn't you agree? This crap was put on Buster, for no fault of his own (this time). Brady was running the show, picking the riders and doing the deals and paying them.. He had to jack, and that left Buster in the crap, with an overpriced team, he can't afford. TJ out ,Klindt out and Barker breaks his collarbone. On top of any problems the might or might not be with Laguta. He could of said fook it and shut both clubs down.. Although a bit of transparency wouldn't go amiss here. Edited August 16, 2023 by Bald Bloke 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another nail in the coffin of British speedway. Guests are a fundamental "must have" at a majority of meetings anyway aren't they so what difference would it have made tonight? It doesn't really matter who wins anyway does it? Maybe this is (another) of those "one offs" and won't happen again...? (Again).... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
