Been on the pop again Starry? SCB has pointed out numerous amount of times he's not keen on Havvy as Bees TM, whether they be top middle of bottom of the league That's hardly fickle. Maybe try some of your own advice and read posts properly!
-
Be interesting to see if the BSPA do adhere to the FIM ruling and remove Wards points whilst he was still riding after being found over the limit at the GP. Can bet your life if it went in Poole's favour and reduced his average Ford would be banging on the doors at Rugby insisting the points were removed and his average adjusted with immediate effect!
-
Shock horror, someone else doesn't read things in context or properly but still jumps on the bandwagon! CBA.
-
Ah, sorry. I thought you were one of the guddun's, there are a few (Pirate fan's that is)
-
Are you not a Poole fan Shadow? Has she left the forum too?
-
It's gone downhill since Shovlar left, he was like a bad case of thrush a lot of the time, but it was all banter.
-
Just a rumour Jacques, whether it has any substance to it we will see. I'm sure it'll all be fine though, not as if Stadia UK have form or anything is it!
-
Indeed great news TWK, with the lack of info on Leighs condition after his accident I for one feared the worst, knew it was spinal related and feared the worst. Great to see him gaining movement back though and being able to bear weight on one of his legs - amazing!!! A different breed are speedway riders.
-
I presume you are a weathered supporter Shadow? Through thick & thin and all that. I'm guessing Home Straight is more a fairweather fan.
-
See... see, that's about the level people will stoop to on here now! You make BWitcher & Starman look positively intellectual with comments like that. I'd say call yourself a speedway fan, but you're obviously just one of those glory hunters who sing when you're winning! Let's hope the rumours about Stadia UK looking to sell the lease aren't true and you don't find yourself in the position that many proper fans are in now.
-
Causing trouble or voicing an opinion. You probably don't post on here much anymore because Poole are quite sh1te these days!
-
In what way? For having my own opinion? I did look to find old thread relating to both CHR, but they must be hidden in the depths of the forum as I couldn't find anything despite going back quite a few pages.
-
You are quite right CHR. This thread is like a car crash, you can't help but look. It was active last night which is why I looked in, thought there may have been some update on a statement from the Ward camp, or the FIM etc. But no, just the same obessive's banging the same old drum (from both sides). Maybe my post was inappropriate on here, but it was a knee jerk post, you know the reason why I logged into the forum last night. I was just amazed that this is still getting so much activity. Still, this isn't helping either. I'm so over the whole Darcy Ward thing but this is just adding fuel to the fire giving some members the chance to go off on one again. Oh bless - look the cavalry's arrived.

No, I'm sure someone who would have actually taken the time to click the link and read the article would have mentioned Leigh. Really, your posts just go to show that you're more interested in starting arguments on here than actually reading any genuine speedway news. You and many others are obviously obsessed with Ward, my post on that particular thread was to highlight my shock really that there was no thread regarding Lee's anniversary on the forum yet people were still banging on about Ward despite the fact that there's been no news about him for weeks - it seems to me that far too many people who regularly use this forum now are only interested in anything Ward or Poole related. Hence..... in other news!!! Thank you CHR. Now please excuse me if I revert to name calling - it won't be directed at your goodself, but some people really chaff my arse on here!
-
My second post on here states the news relates to Leigh! Anyway, who made you the forum Police? Apart from the Ward thread other thread have I posted on that doesn't interest me? I'm keen to know what I am and am not interested in in your mighty opinion! Why would you respond to a post then if you didn't read the full content of it?
-
Why didn't I title the thread Leigh Adam's update? Yeah maybe I should, but I thought of it as a general thread where maybe from time I or others may link interesting general news that isn't Poole or Ward related could be posted. Even so, why didn't you click the link and read it before jumping in and stirring things up again?
-
Dear CHR, Thanks for your polite response. Yes my opening paragragh mentioned Rico, but was putting why I started this thread in context. Like I said, I've been a member of this forum and of it in it's previous guises for probably 15 years, but frequent it rarely these days. Probably something to do with the fact I don't have a club to support anymore, but more so because of the crap that's constantly posted on here. It used to be a source of great information/banter/friendships. Now it's a pale shadow of that and seems to be wrapped up with one or two clubs and one rider in particular (well the EL & SGP threads, which with the TV coverage is all I really have any current knowledge about these days). - They may as well be renamed the Poole and Darcy Ward sections!!! It's boring, it's uninteresting, it's obsessive!! I found a story on Leigh Adams this morning, which I thought may be of interest to genuine speedway fans. I certainly wasn't aware of the extent of his injuries, it had been kept quite quiet as to how bad it was. Yet to read about the progress he's made is amazing. So I thought I'd share this. Outcome, one of the forum's (ok I promise not to call members names in my response to you as you were so polite),... one of the forum's more active posters jumps straight on the thread sticking his nose in and trying to stir things up. That I'm afraid riles me. In response to your other comment - yes, I do think it's important to mark Rico's anniversary, I think it's important for Emma and the kids to know that he and they are still very much in people's minds, and that their thoughts are still with them. I didn't say that it show a lack of respect that there was no specific thread set up on here to mark it, was just a tad surprised when I saw there wasn't.
-
Have you actually click the link? Have you seen how Leigh Adams is doing? Did you realise just how bad his injuries were? Do you care, or do you just like sticking your nose in?
-
This thread isn't about Rico!
-
Fk'sake you never give up do you. It's really an unhealthy obsession, and a boring one at that!
-
Personally I find you an irritating knob - but each to their own aye? I was airing my view on the lack of any mention on here of Lee on his anniversary. And the other news relates to another Leigh, who was another great servant to British Speedway and the remarkable journey he's making on his road to recovery.
-
Despite being a member of the BSF since the very early days, I rarely post on here anymore but yesterday being the 3rd anniversary of the death of Lee Richardson came on here expecting to add my tributute to an established thread started in memory of one of the nicest, decent blokes to have graced the sport. There were plenty of tributes on social media but a distinct lack of any mention of it on this, probably the biggest speedway forum on the web - a sad state of affairs. Many people on here seem to be obsessed with one team, one rider or one topic with very little interest in anything else outside of that. Surely there's more to speedway than that? Saw this posted on social media today, http://www.sunraysiadaily.com.au/story/3077221/adams-recovery-ongoing/?cs=1259 far more worthy of a read than the majority of topics on here!
-
Because it's ongoing and ongoing and ongoing ...... YOUR ALL F*CKING OBSESSED!!!
-
I could have, but at 10pm on the day of his anniversary I thought it a little late and possibly looked upon as an after thought Anyway, I'll let you all get back to discussing the f*ckwit who seems to be the be all and end all of the sport.
-
Yes Trees, I've seen plenty on social media, just suprised that on the biggest speedway forum on the web, there was not a peep Darcy Ward this, Darcy Ward that.... I'm sick of hearing about him. Just pointing out that there are other speedway related topics that should be at the front of peoples minds every now and again.
