The White Knight

Which proves he was more inconsistant rather than useless.

R.I.P. + Bryan.

Just received mine yesterday. I would totally concur with the above comments and would re-iterate that a 1960s Edition would be great. BackTrack seems to have had some input too - so - well done to them also. Thank you Speedway Star.

You asked me a badly worded question about the White Helmet Cover. I answered it in a civilised way. You never mentioned 'Play Offs'. What am I - a mind reader? You seem to be getting more and more desperate with every Post you make on this Thread. I am beginning to think that Aces51, in the last sentence of his excellent Post, has the right of it. I quote: "it will not be a case of not being able to answer whatever points you make but simply that it would be pointless exercise".

I wholeheartedly agree with those sentiments steve roberts. Well said.

Perhaps they will have a System that isn't so labour intensive. I don't know, but they might.

Crikey Starman2006 you are a pessimist.. Let's just celebrate the fact that the 'Aces' are going to have the best Speedway Stadium in the Country that can be enjoyed by everyone. Yes Starman2006 - even Poole Supporters.

Always a good reply when you have lost the argument.

Pardon - I don't understand? I'll take a guess. Yes - I was happy when the White Helmet Cover was reinstated. Only problem was that under lights you could not distinguish between Yellow and White. Back to Yellow/Black now. Believe it or not - I am happy with that too. It should never have been changed in the first place. I know it is only a small thing, and in the great scheme of things means very little - but yes - I do approve. EDIT: The word is Colour not Color unless you are American - are you?

Terrific Post GRW123. :approve:

What an historic time for Belle Vue Speedway. The new Stadium looks superb. I hope the Track is somewhere near as good as Hyde Road..

I have never argued that the 'Play Offs' don't make money. I have never said that they aren't successful. As regards resurrecting Speedway from the Ashes though - they are singularly unsuccessful as is evidenced by ever decreasing Gates - apart from said 'Play Offs'. My argument has always been that they are not right or fair. I stick to that. If you look over all of my Posts regarding the 'Play Offs' I have consistently said that they are all about MONEY. So - as you can see - I don't want it both ways. So - you see BW - once again you are wrong. I don't expect you to admit it though. You never do!!

Thank you very much for that Joe. :)

Well the advent of 'Play Offs', 'Double Points' et al has certainly been a startling success at NOT bringing people back to Speedway. Unless the 'Play Off' Gate money is shared out around the Track, which I don't believe it is, then they don't exactly benefit the whole Sport do they? Just those Clubs who are in said Play Offs. I basically agree with this. It's the money - not the Sport that matters. And yet you keep telling us that it is only the 'old fogies' who go to Speedway these days. You can't have it both ways. :nono:

Don't think they are signing anybody. :unsure:

Not on Facebook and can't see them. :sad:

Good point CIG. :approve:

Logical BW. You are not Mr. Spock in diguise are you. You are right about that - that is my main contention against the Play Offs - they are neither Fair nor Sporting.

Hardly. :sad:

I know the feeling.................... :rolleyes:

............................... and a Team's Photograph on the outside back cover. :approve:

Doesn't make it right though. End of.

I had to laugh at that one YB. Very good. :rofl: :rofl:

Try the word credibilty. I believe that part of the reason people have packed up attending is that the Sport has lost it's credibility. To be credible the League Champions need to be just that. You can have any other Competition you like at the end of the Season - but crucially - not the League Championship - as that has already been won..... I know that I will never convince you - I also know that you will never convince me either, therefore - we must agree to differ.

Only for the Clubs that make the Play Offs - as far as I am aware they don't share the Play Off money out. Or perhaps I am wrong, at least about that. I am sure that BW and his sidekick 'Penfold' will be happy to put me right.
