  1. Obviously you can't read either. See the highlighted bit. Read it and digest. .............Oh - and yes you did Post something even more stupid. Allowing me to reply. Not very bright are you.
  2. orion - I am getting fed up with arguing with you. "When he went" what the hell are you talking about in that context. I went for years watching the bloody Tactical Ride until I just couldn't stand it any more. You seem intent on pushing this. I don't know why? You haven't a clue what you are talking about. That's my last Post on this matter - unless of course you come up with something even more stupid - which is not beyond the bounds of possibility.
  3. Who is judging? The Thread Title is dedicated Fans. :unsure:
  4. I should hope so. The advent of Air Fences will have helped along with the advances in Medical Science. That doesn't mean the Bikes today are safer though. I would argue to the contrary.
  5. Fair comment. The number of Meetings they attend though is a different matter......................................................... There may be somebody who goes to more Meetings than Halifaxtiger - but I don't know of them.
  6. I know Tain well. I stayed at the Morangie House Hotel a number of times. The Venison was superb. Super place. :approve:
  7. I am - totally. But that is the way I was taught to do it (by someone who knew what they were doing). I could never have figured it out for myself Steve. :rolleyes:
  8. Great shout that. Halifaxtiger would get my Vote as the most dedicated Speedway Supporter. He goes everywhere to follow his hobby. :approve:
  9. It might help if they showed some bloody Speedway. :mad:
  10. Or Highlight the Link - then Control C - when Posting - Control V Same thing really - just another way of doing it.
  11. When I was at school - I used to purchase my Cigarettes in Fives. Those were the days. I'm still glad I gave up though.
  12. I was talking to my friend last night - and I just wonder if Speedway is one of those things that has had it's day with the General Public. I sincerely hope that is not the case - but falling Crowds tend to point that way. I don't necessarily think making Speedway cheaper is the right way to go. How about giving the Paying Public a bit more for their money than they get at present. Value for money, for me, is the thing. Sadly too many people in Speedway take their Support(ers) for granted. There's your fifteen Heats - that's it - now go away and come back next week. That after standing, sometimes in the freezing cold, for over two hours. Slicker Presentation with, perhaps, a local Jazz Band, Regiment of Soldiers marching, a Military Band perhaps(maybe too expensive - I don't know). Local youngsters showing off Cycle Speedway etc.. There are lots of things that could be done to keep folk interested. Just a few thoughts anyway - I suppose I will be shot down in flames for talking rubbish.
  13. No problem TG. You are right - the Owen Brothers did dominate that League at that time. The Worralls are still young and could develop in to a very potent force as well.
  14. I genuinely hope that something can be sorted out for him. Well done too for Posting this on here where someone can see it who may be able to offer some help.
  15. I don't. Would it not be possible for the Club to try to arrange a lift for him. I'm not being funny Bryn - but would that not be possible?
  16. Aaaahhh - Thank you for that whka1. So I got the Heat Leader bit right anyway.
  17. I couldn't care less how central (to the Country) it is - I am just delighted that Belle Vue have taken the initiative and have invested in the new Stadium. It took a lot of courage, in these times of austerity, for anyone in Speedway to attempt something like this, especially considering the parlous state of our Sport at present. As Belle Vue is my Team - the new Stadium is the centre of the Country(in the Speedway sense) for me. :)
  18. If you are referring to my previous Post - I don't like being called a liar by a Poster who does not know me. orion has called me a liar two or three times now. I only responded to his somewhat pathetic attempts to read my character on this Forum. That is very true BW - I was. I put up with it as long as I could and then walked away. I give you credit for having more intelligence than the Poster who called me a liar. But I assure you, in all honesty, that the Tactical Ride is what finished me going to the Speedway. You can ask anyone who stood around me at Brough Park, a number whom Post on this Forum. They know the Tactical Ride got to me. They know that is why I don't/won't attend. They know that the Tactical Ride is the sole reason for my none attendance. Sure there are lots of other things I don't like in Speedway - but crucially - none of them have influenced my decision. I have done my best to try to explain all of this to you, as honestly as I can, and possibly to others who don't understand my reasoning. I hope that you will respect that.
  19. Great News for Lewis and his Family. Great News too for all of us Speedway Supporters who only wish for the well being and safety of all Speedway Riders. Keep fighting Lewis - we are all rooting for you and you are in my prayers.
  20. I remember that. I also believe that Senior Service (my smoke of choice until I gave up in 1969) can still be purchased from certain outlets. I'm not sure where though.
