No new signing.... despite the repeated promises....

But "the management" dont seem to care.... so why should I???

that's where the contagion has spread from . alround in at least a small way even to the team must be affected also . professional riders frequently if not annually switched to yet another team , never used to be this bad , guests and r/r becoming more common , from 1993 for several seasons we had real eastbourne eagles . the loyalty and team spirit can vary from season to season . these looked good originally , and lukas wanted to join us permantly . but this has dropped with the team rarely being the original seven , and management gave them and us only hot air , and sometimes " porkies " .so our spirit and enthusiasm not suprisingly has dropped for many . still feel a loyalty to the riders though .world war 1 gave rise to the expression "lions led by donkies" , seems rather apt .

Perhaps Lewis is as fed up with riding for a club with zero ambition as we are with supporting one!!!

Who could blame him???

He is riding out in poland for his club tonight, expect the bspa to whack him with a 28day ban

It is not on, but as i understand the polish match was arranged before our bell vue meeting, if this is true mangement should of known about it before hand and done something about it

Im starting to wonder on how much Brian Owen from The Argus is just made up to help sell the paper to us speedway fans, i can think of 3 recent reports regarding new riders coming to the club etc and then to print as if he has spoken to Lewis about returning to the team tonight just makes me wonder a bit more, in future im taking what tosh he comes up with next with a pinch of salt.

Well at least we got Lee Complin as a replacement Rolling Eyes

. Trevor must have moved quick to get him but with so many fixtures on tonight I suppose the choice was limited Rolling Eyes

We need to find out the truth as i have now been told he is with holding his services from eastbourne. If this is true then he is gonna be smacked with a 28day ban, can we really blame him after the mangement have giving up then the riders will feel like they can as well

The following questions need an answer;

Did management know this, and if so, when?
Did Lewis tell them, or not?
If not, presumably the club will impose a penalty on him.

Whatever the reason, yet again the club, the supporters of both cubs, have suffered as a result of foreign teams.
The Elite League has yet again played second fiddle to foreign teams.

Yet BD states he wants a new promoter to keep the club in the Elite League.
Some supporters say the club should remain in the Elite League.

At the risk of offending some people, they must be potty.

So, Bob defends and supports Lewis through all of last seasons trouble, even when he swears at Lee and Hagon, and now this happens.

Bet Bob feels really gutted, with friends like that, who needs an enemy Shocked
