  1. I wonder if you used to read his late night, presumably drugged up/drunken rants that were always removed by a mod before we got up in the morning (yes we had mods back then who did a good job.) I really can't understand how anyone could miss him or his posts. Big Fat Dave was a drug dealer who eventually got caught and ended up in prison. He died a couple of years ago. Steve Shovlar is an avid Poole fan whose only interest on here is to wind everyone up. Shame he's come back after the season has finished as I'm a bit worried he'll have no ammunition but we'll see. Edited to correct the spelling of Shovler......it's been so long I've forgotten.
  2. I've always been surprised about your support for him, especially given the profession you're in, but each to their own. Couldn't stand him myself. Horrible man....and yes I have met him to form an opinion besides how he used to post on here. Ended up in prison and it's just a shame he wasn't caught earlier. Sometimes Karma does work.
  3. I'm not really bothered who is in the 2016 team as long as it doesn't contain Davey Watt, Troy Batchelor or Kasprzak. Thank you. I've no idea what all these new gradings are on about so I'll just wait until March and see what happens without bothering my brain cells in the meantime.
  4. Bloody hell it's Steve Shovlar. There are some new folk on here that will not get your style of posting so stand by for blasting.
  5. So it's October and the season has barely finished but you already know that Swindon will have a better team than Coventry next year. Gawd we do have some miserable fans but not many thank goodness. Perhaps you'll cheer up a bit in 2017 when the track has gone.
  6. Gawd you've got a strange taste in riders you'd like in the team. No likey....or Davey Watt and Troy Batchelor.
  7. Hans Andersen is available if you're interested.
  8. Presumably it's a majority vote that gets passed so it would be interesting to know exactly which teams (if any) voted against it. We'll never find out of course.
  9. I must be in a minority but I couldn't care less who is missing next season as I'd just prefer to see riders who actually want to ride in the UK. If that means a weaker league then so be it.
  10. Thanks for your kind words but I was talking in general not just about Coventry.
  11. Yes, they do but when riders are found they often have attached to them a very strange average that never applies if they are Poole bound.
  12. Get in touch and I'm sure they will post another copy to you.
  13. I don't think the 2013 one did it any favours. (My memory is not too good but I think that's the correct year, or it could have been 2012.) Did anyone get out of the place before midnight? Well, I managed it in the end after driving round the car park for 10 minutes trying to find an exit that wasn't blocked by cars. I finally had enough when Chris Harris crashed in the semi-final, but individual meetings have never really interested me anyway as I much prefer a league match.
  14. I thought he'd had his arm chopped off for a moment. Looking again you can just see his fingers round Dak's waist. https://instagram.com/p/8rVZhTI4UW/
  15. Probably because most fans are already into 'end of season' mode and aren't particularly interested in individual meetings any more on a cold, dark October night. I think Mick Horton was pondering about having a Brandonapolis at Coventry but judging by the delay in announcing it he has changed his mind. I don't blame him either as he'd just probably lose some more money.
  16. I think this is one subject we can all agree on ~ they are very much appreciated and do a great job. Thank you.
  17. Personally I would pick A as I'd prefer to see good racing but I suspect I am in a minority and most fans would select B with their team winning easily every week. 2004 stands out as a really enjoyable season for me but both the Bees and Cougars finished bottom of the league. You get used to it after a while and can just sit back and enjoy the racing.
  18. No copyright problem for me ~ he just cut my head in half. .....
  19. In which case a return to the Premier League might be the best option?
  20. Especially when some people get easily confused. Glad it's not Peterborough anyway. Me neither. Looked like he got fenced and wasn't very happy but without seeing a video clip it's hard to tell. Shame though as Peterborough could have done with those points to take up to Edinburgh.
  21. To which day? Can't see mid-week working as it's been tried before. Personally I love the Sunday meetings because it means I can go so I hope there are some next season.
  22. Actually the 19th in this case is the deeper hole North dug with his comments about not being in the loop. What a load of rubbish. Whereas you of course know all the details.
  23. I don't think so and he'd never be in a Bees team again so if he was an asset I think Mick would have off loaded him by now.
