  1. The thing that annoys me is that residents tend to complain about noise and dirt when in reality these two are a thing of the past. Regarding the noise you can barely hear the bikes down the back straight these days
  2. Or is Russian drug testing nearly as corrupt as speedway
  3. Trouble is thrash metal and Rammstein arnt what the kids are listening to, that type of music and band have been going a good 20 years I'd say. Tbh I've no idea what youngsters listen to today
  4. If we don't run next year I would have to consider returning to watch the Wolves but I'm not paying 17 or 18 pound , it would have to drop to at least 15 but realistically should be lower than that. Difficult for the promotors to drop it to that though. I think it could be a nomad season of travelling around and enjoying the day out but after travelling about the last few years and getting shafted by various excuses not sure I'd risk travelling too far especially without guaranteed weather
  5. Bit different but when I moved into my current house opposite a school I thought about it carefully, I knew for 15 minutes in a morning and afternoon it would be chaos outside my house. On the plus side at other times there's no one about especially evenings and weekends. For that half hour it's a bit of a pain but it was my choice
  6. WWE doesn't pretend to be a sport it is sport entertainment. I agree it's a farce at times but at least it knows what it is. Wish the same could be said of speedway
  7. Same as me, I'm cancelling sky sports in a couple of weeks when my deals up. £300 saved I think. And cancelling BT sport when that's up and watching the gps when they appear on you tube
  8. Thanks for that RS50 il do that , saves them trying to get me to renew by offering a deal. It was only £25 for 12 months but I didn't really enjoy the coverage
  9. Il defend riders most times but the Scunthorpe Workington meeting last year was a shambles with the riders attitude except a couple namely Josh Auty and James Sargeant. What gets me is that the riders tend to say they can't ride because of visibility but I watched a couple of moto gps last season when it bucketed down but they get on with it going at treble the speed at least
  10. I'm pretty sure premier sports automatically renew unless you phone them and cancel
  11. Cracking return but you missed out fallen woman, I'm only 56 but got pensions cashing in and still working but decided to enjoy life and spending everything coming my way. Il leave the house to the kids but don't want to leave a penny in the bank
  12. I've no idea why football is still so popular I catch the odd game and have no idea whose who, it's proberly me but surely football now is more substance over actual standard
  13. Sorry to hear that bet it's not as bad as the gig I was at last Saturday. Free tickets for James Arthur. I was robbed. Absolute rubbish first and last non metal/rock gig I've seen
  14. No need to shout Phil, just going by the comments on here
  15. Tuesdays worked well as you say ladbrokes arnt saying but surely someone knows the reason. If we were just told it would help, might not agree with it but at least we would know why
  16. Before my era but I just got 6 . Pathetic. Lol
  17. I think if we had had 1 year out instead of 14 and started up at monmore in the NL the crowds would have been nowhere near what we got when we came back in 2010. Might be wrong. Can't see Coventry fans travelling to Leicester in any great numbers for NL. Again, could be wrong
  18. I'm impressed with the memories of some of you, I could have my subject as my life and I still wouldn't get as many as 15!!!!!!!!
  19. Every now and again on a Friday if I knew all the work was more or less done when someone who had helped out in some way or gone out of there way ,when they were going for lunch I'd say see you Monday il finish off this afternoon. Carrot and stick approach I think it's called. One staff member did say to me that he didn't understand why the staff all seemed to like me cuz I could be a right b***ard at times. Lol. Seemed to work though. I think !!!!! It was a different time 25 years ago though people seem more fragile these days. Some of the things said back then couldn't be said today I don't think
  20. Went to a few the Scunny one was freezing I actually left before the end it was that cold. Like the idea but the reality is a different thing
  21. It's a terrible way to run a business though trying to do everything, back in a previous life when I was a manager the first thing I did was get all the phone calls to me diverted to the staff. The calls were generally orders for stock and general questions. When one of the staff questioned this with me my response was I'm here to make sure everything runs right and sort it out when it doesn't your here to send stuff out. Delagation is a massive part of good man management. Obviously you need staff you can trust to do a good job but that's your job to get decent workers working for you
