I was no fan of Darcy Ward, although I admired his ability as a speedway rider. I have commented in the past that he was fortunate to be receiving so much attention when compared to other riders in a similar plight... However, I haven't gone as low as you are doing on this thread.

Yet Emil had a big lead that year which had been whittled down and been lost. The momentum was with Tai and Emil was beginning to flounder. Tai was leading the championship at the time of the injury to Emil.

This poster is becoming even more sick, now hiding behind riders who were sadly killed to continue his lies and bitter attacks on Tai Woffinden and now Darcy Ward. Ward received support because folk got of their butts and raised money for him, whereas you do nothing but tarnish the memory of riders with your insanity on this forum. You should be utterly ashamed, but of course you won't be.

Yet more evidence of the fact it was quite simply a lower standard then. He didn't get booed for continued use of the f word. He got booed because he was abusing many in the audience. Had he been using the f word and telling them how brilliant they were he would have been cheered.

The 'truth' doesn't hurt me at all, nothing on a 'forum' hurts me. What amuses me is posters like you who know the thread has nothing in it to interest you, but still keep coming onto the thread to preach. It doesn't effect your enjoyment of the forum whatsoever, you are making a conscious decision to continuously post on something that you're not interested in.. Clearly you've got a problem!

It takes some doing to post worse rubbish than Robert72, but I think you've managed it.

They don't need to comment do they? Ford just making a fool of himself.

Your claims are false until proved otherwise. That's how life works. You're not allowed to board a plane unless you have your passport... your line of "What proof have you got to prove I'm not who I say I am' won't wash. The onus is on you. Meanwhile, I've raced you 37 times, beat you on each occasion. One time I forgot to switch the fuel on and you had half a lap head start, I still won, even though the race was awarded after three laps. Prove me wrong.

You post with nothing to contribute? That's your morale high ground? Hilarious! The past 100+ pages have been entirely about Robert72, he's enjoyed it. As for your claim that you'd 'rather post opinions on a subject that matters'... this conversation wouldn't be happening if you did that would it?

Yet still post.. Can you imagine the length of threads if folk posted on every thread they weren't interested in, or announced they had given up on threads.. The thread is redundant now the team has been named however. Robert72 will have to move his fantasies elsewhere.

Better run along and tell your beloved promoter what a 'thicko' he is. It's only being discussed again because the 'thicko' brought it up.

Starman breaking ranks! Never thought he'd accuse Matt Ford of being thick. Sackable offence I would say!

He hasn't made Emil out to be some sort of mug, that's what you've decided.

Bless.. He couldn't have taken it 'further' as Wright didn't ride in the meeting. Ridiculous statement. If he truly believed he was right, Wright would have ridden and his pts deducted afterwards if he was wrong. Ford knew he was wrong and his attempts at face saving are a tad pathetic.. but then fans like Starman will lap it up.

Assuming Russia turn up!

It's staggering just how out of touch someone can be with regards to the thread. Robert 72 is the one making the bets, others just took him up on it. Robert72 is the one making the claims about riding prowess, but providing zero evidence to back it up. He mocked others, including Stevebrum for not being brave enough to try, Stevebrum however was able to call his bluff because he has indeed rode and provided the necessary evidence immediately. The way the thread has gone has nothing to do with his views/opinions and entirely to do with his trolling, abuse of other posters and ridiculous claims. Hence, if you are going to give one of your lectures, go to the source of the 'problem'..

No, that title without doubt goes to people posting on a thread with no interest to them....

I haven't said I've checked through 134 pages of the thread, I don't need too. Your name is one that consistently pops up liking posts from forum clowns. Says a lot. The Gresham issue, I don't tolerate nonsense. He was talking nonsense, I told him so. It takes two to tango and he is the one who lost his rag and became abusive before acting like a child. Anyone who resorts to such actions on a 'forum' has some issues. As I've said, it matters not one bit whether anyone wishes to have a 'pop at me' or not, I don't take things seriously and am capable of judging every debate on its merits.. not on who is posting. It's interesting to notice the latest childlike character latching onto your posts though in Hodgy. Another who sums up all that is wrong with some posters. He makes a comment, it's highlighted how it can be deemed to be offensive, but he's unable to act in an adult fashion and accept he didn't phrase it as best he could.. continues to dig and ends up looking a fool. It really is very sad. Anyway, as said, let's move on so we can continue to enjoy the comedy of Robert72 and the supporting act of Starman.

To be fair to Gresham he has made numerous posts on various topics that I've found interesting and have often been in total agreement with. That's life, sometimes you will agree with folk, other times you won't. It's pretty obvious.. whenever one of the forum clowns interjects into a thread with some nonsense aimed in my direction, its odds on you'll pop up with a 'like'. Yet here we are on this thread and we've over 100 pages revolving around one poster talking utter nonsense, has been called out and questioned by many and not a single 'like' in sight from you until someone has a pop at me...As said, each to their own.

Of course, but as usually happens and I'm surprised it hasn't earlier, the usual mob are involving themselves in a thread now, ignoring the nonsense talking, trolling poster but attacking someone calling him out.. You can predict beforehand exactly who will show up..

That's fair enough, often the type of track you prefer is the one you are brought up on so to speak, as you had Hyde Road as your home track you will always favor the bigger tracks. Likewise myself with Monmore. That being said, good speedway is good speedway regardless of the track size or shape. Personally I prefer a greater element of skill rather than the engine being the most important ingredient. At this moment in time I think the engine/setup is much too important at the NSS... however, that should change as time goes on and the track continues to bed in. Kirky Lane, as you say used to produce some fantastic racing. I was a regular there from when the track opened through to around 1992/3.

You placed me on 'ignore' at the same time as your pal Gresham. Of course you developed a rapport, for that of acting like kids. I pointed out to Gresham it was utter nonsense to suggest it was 'easier' to identify teams from the terraces with race jackets than it was with team suits.. It was such a ridiculous suggestion of his that it really didn't even warrant discussion outside of the kids section, but he refused to accept it and placed me on ignore. That says more about him than me... and you likewise. I have never placed anyone on ignore.. ever. There are some posters who I've had back and forth with numerous times over the years, Tsunami, EI Addio to name just a couple but we're adult enough to put our points across and not resort to using the 'ignore' feature. We also don't hold grudges and will be just as likely to be in agreement on another topic. The posters that protest the most about 'respecting opinions' are the very ones who use the ignore feature the most pretty much blowing their argument out of the water. Now back to the thread. We're waiting for Robert72 to speak to Tai as he promised he would. We're waiting for Robert72 to prove he was a rider who beat multiple World Champions, or pay 10K to the Ben Fund as he promised he would. We're waiting for Robert72 to accept the challenge from Stevebrum to an actual race. What about me Sidders? I've not made any claims, but if you want me too.. I've never lost a race in my life.

You've stalked my posts ever since you supported Gresham in the ridiculous 'race jackets' are more visible than team leathers claim. It's not just me though, you tend to always pop up with likes when folks posting nonsense are called out. There's 134 pages of insanity on this thread from Robert72 to which you haven't said a word, says it all. Now, let's move along now, this thread is all about Robert72 and we're awaiting his latest outlandish claim. Wouldn't suprise me if he talks about riding in World Finals next.

Which proves a point I made a while back about the Aces new track. I'm not disputing it's a great facility, but in terms of the racing, its the bike more than the rider that wins the races. Actual skill required is pretty limited, very easy track to ride, as you evidence yourself. Of course there are more mistakes at Monmore, its a much harder track to ride. Rider skill plays a much bigger role than at some tracks. Before you go off on one, I'm not saying one track is better than another, just totally different animals.

As expected, there is one culprit on this thread for that happening... yet as per norm you roll in on a thread attacking someone else.. just because you were corrected on something in the past and acted like a petulant child and held a grudge ever since. I never said I 'know it all', that would be a ridiculous claim to make. All I said is, I only get involved regarding things I do know... As above, you're another who unable to accept when they're wrong acts like a kid. It's a wonder how some of you cope in life. Numerous times. Indeed, I misread something New Science said quite recently, He corrected me, I apologised, all sorted in two posts.
