Both clubs still going. Ask fans of Reading and Swindon Speedway if they're enjoying their sport.

I don't have a problem with a difference of views or opinions but I challenge the validity of your referral to Wikipedia as I could go there right now and edit what you've read. His track record bears no resemblance to Osborne whatsoever. Is he preferable to Osborne, in your opinion he isn't and in ...

You do know anyone can write on Wiki right? Nobody besides his detractors are calling him a Knight in shining armour but he would definitely be preferable to Osborne.

I said 'many' not all. I would have thought a solicitor could read simple English and you'll also find the vast majority of fans will share my opinion.

No, he's worse! He tried everything that Osbourne tried but it didn't cost him a penny. He sold out and made a huge profit. If he buys it, then you'll think Osbourne was a saint! Is there no end to the nonsense you'll post to support that charlatan? The Devil would be worried about his reputation i...

It's your client who is at fault for the mismanagement of finances for the last several years. The sooner she trots off the better. Once we're rid of all the Osborneites the club will eventually find it's natural level through the support of its fans. We'll get the club we deserve so it'll be up to ...

It's been sold for £1 before. Precedent set.............

We could save £20k a week if Hayman walked, because her stewardship has cost that amount to various owners over the years. My accountants were great at saving me money when the time came for their input.

Is this some WBW solicitor account? Posting rumour as if fact

I can think of what the wbw could stand for

Not quite

Be interesting where this all leads. Fans of other clubs have drummed out owners and almost without exception, those clubs have dropped like stones or disappeared altogether. You really are clueless. A couple have disappeared but almost all have made their way back or are in the process of doing so...

Trust you? Not while you spout a defence of Clarke Osborne, no thanks. As I've said before, I think the land at Plainmoor wasn't the real carrot for Osborne. Permission to "develop an area to include a ground" as per his modus operandi and who is to say housing by a big builder wouldn't sw...

She can't be a very good financial advisor or accountant to oversee a business losing an average of £20k a week for over a decade can she?

To be fair the council have reiterated there position time, time and time again that the freehold of Plainmoor was not for sale, so there was never that chance, and whilst I think the fanbase may have played a very small part in hastening CO decision, more likely the realization that he (CO) was ne...

Is it rumours, here-say or is there factual evidence?

What’s the insinuation, money?

You do know, you've just not twigged yet. Facts are not rumours.
