No clue if it happened or not to be honest, I know as much (or as little) as everyone else on here.....which is not a lot!

I disagree. If, as reported, the exclusion from the meeting was because of the conduct involving the poor wee heater, then he was rightly excluded and very much in the wrong...no matter what the inital provocation was. I say this as a Cookie fan rather than an Ipswich Barker fan (he is certainly not on my list of favourite riders), so bias towards Barker is not forthcoming from this quarter. It's rather like one of my boys whispering something to another and then the receiver of the comment going mental whilst I am giving them both a talking to and breaking things belonging to someone else (usually mine), it is completely out of proportion to the initial comment.

I am unable to make this meeting so is there anyone who can take my place doing the texting? If you can help, can you please send me a private message. Thanks

Aww thanks..the truth is, only a few know who I am at the meetings, my name may be known but but not the face so I can be completely anonymous at speedway.

My eldest son stopped going once he hit 16 and had to pay adult rate, for a person still in full time compulsory education, it was far too much for him (or me) to find each week. Even student rates are too expensive for someone in 6th form, so he went from going every week to going once in the last 3 years and the same will happen with middle son in the future....youngest stopped going a couple of years ago but that was nothing to do with the actual sport (he is autistic and couldn't cope with the noise or the people) I am on my second time round on going to speedway, I initially started going in the 80's but stopped in the mid 90's because I started my family and because the cost became excessive. For the last 3 years, the only thing that has kept me going to speedway is the fact I run the Updates site, without it, I would have stopped going in 2010 and the fact that in the interim time, my middle son has become hooked on the sport. In the early days of my return, I would be on here every day, checking out the latest news, joining in the conversations etc but as the seasons have gone past and my interest has waned, I rarely come here now....a few seasons ago, I would know who rode where, their average etc, now I have to check all the time! For me, the constant changing of rules, the debacle of a few seasons ago with the not wanteds and the AGM, the advantage getting by the bending of rules to suit have all made me just that little bit disillusioned with it all. To be honest, once middle son has to pay the increased admittance (he is the same as eldest, one of the eldest in the year, so more time between turning 16 and being able to get a student card for concession rate in 6th form than a lot of others, almost a year!), will probably be the day I will stop going for good as otherwise I will be Billy no mates standing there....... and that day is not far away.

Having had a few days to think about it, I do agree it was just a wee bit draconian to delete the entire thread. Although there was some crap in it, there was also some very good and informative stuff too, all of which has now been lost. As to people being banned for starting new Ipswich threads when the other disappeared, I would probably have been inclined to start one too if I had actually been looking on here when it was all kicking off...a simple note explaining why a new thread was not welcome would have sufficed rather than giving people a ban without a justifiable reason. For the well behaved contributors to that thread, it really does feel like a kick in the teeth and like class detentions at school when two or three have been playing up (something I am very very against as it doesn't work psychologically - it tends to make everyone else behave badly), we have all been put into an Ipswich detention! It is certainly not the sort of action I would take, my method would be more removing the offending posts and posters than the entire thread. But then, what do I know?

For me, it was Teletext or the local paper a few days later....most annoying if we were away and the television didn't have teletext and the national paper we picked up didn't have the team we wanted results for listed!

Begger, does that mean I have to post all my nice stuff again?
