  1. Really? "I've just got a certificate". "O.k. mate off you go". Let's see the damned thing then.
  2. If you look closely, you may well find that you have a couple of cowpats still stuck to you!
  3. A medical certificate that he was unfit and should engage in no physical action for at least a few hours presumably? I asked for this several days ago! Result? No response! We all know the score.
  4. We're banning you from riding when you can't ride because there's no racing??
  5. Can you be a rider and a president at the same time?
  6. That KK looks a useful addition. Where did Rye House get him from?
  7. You should sign Holder C and Batchelor You should have got Batchelor and Holder C. They're brilliant at showing respect to the fans!!
  8. They have been waiting for him to improve for the last four years. You have to accept, it isn't going to happen.
  9. Easily resolved. Copy it, scan it and post it on here. Job done! Why oh why has Porsing been brought back? Without being unkind, he is pretty hopeless and has been so for the past four years. Why hasn't the lesson been learnt?
  10. I really cannot understand why people keep going on about the top 4. Does this league really have any significance at all? It is amateurish, third rate (at best), extremely poorly run, lost all its credibility some time ago and is basically a shambolic joke! Top 4? Who the hell cares?
  11. My idea of leadership involves building teams on and off the track, motivating people, delegating responsibility to certain individuals, making sure that the Club is properly promoted, ensuring that a regular dialogue is maintained with the supporters (aka customers) and generally involving as many people as possible to provide a feel-good factor. Ruthlessly sacking people isn't decisive leadership. It is reactive panic and proves evidence of weak leadership for allowing the situation to develop in the first place. Who appointed the Manager and was he merely the easiest option who wouldn't challenge the owner's leadership skills? That's a difficult one!
  12. I'm not sure where you've been but Porsing doesn't fly around anywhere! I am still waiting for someone to explain why he was brought back into the KL team! They'd be better off employing my Nanny in her pinny as a reserve.
  13. How on earth can two leagues be justified with the majority of riders taking part in both and frequently missing matches when both their teams ride at the same time? We then see guest, guest, guest, guest and ....... oh yes, guest!! It is all a shambolic joke. I got completely fed up with it some time ago and the Batchelor/Holder fiasco merely illustrated the chaotic way in which this "sport" is run in this country. Buster was seen as the man who could improve things. It hurts me to say it but, whilst he is extremely hard working and committed, he hasn't got a leadership bone in his body. The club went rapidly downhill when his son departed. Let's face it, Buster is happiest whilst he is driving his tractor.
  14. Batchelor has always been an unintelligent little boy who has never been able to grow up. Holder has been to the top and seems to find it difficult to accept that his best days are long gone. He has descended the slippery slope to mediocrity and appears to find it difficult to understand his current status.
  15. Make an effort to locate another brain cell and you've half a chance of being regarded as a plant! For any sport to survive, there are two key things it has to have, otherwise the good old public will not want to know. These are integrity and credibility. Sadly, these qualities left British speedway some time ago and the outcome is, I am afraid, inevitable.
  16. Just clocked his surname. Is he anything to do with that other chap who got into a bit of trouble recently?
  17. I accept it is your and everyone's right not to go and to watch it on TV instead. I can't, however, notice the use of THIS as you state. You say "I prefer to watch it on TV and I will. Much better than being there". From my point of view, you wouldn't get me within a million miles of the place. Will I watch it on TV? Probably not but I might if I get fed up watching the grass grow. From a general sporting point of view, there is no comparison, in my view, with being present at an event and watching it on TV. I have always said what I think about armchair viewers who never leave the house. It is their right to do so in much the same way as it is my right to give my opinion on them.
