The White Knight

It isn't the Tracks. The Bikes, as I have said many times are simply too powerful for the Tracks they are expected to race on. Given that Tracks have hardly changed in shape or length since the 1920s - it has to be down to the Bikes. For me, and here, even such an illustrious Speedway World Champion as 'Briggo' agrees that the Lay Down Engines have only made things worse - not better.

I wish I could 'Like' this Post twice Tony. :rofl: :rofl:

Typo - Edited. Thank you for pointing it out.

Wishing both Lasse and Jan well in their recoveries. Speedway is certainly racking up the injuries this year. Very sad.

One of the best Books I have read. I treasure it because I got it from Malcolm himself and he signed it for me. I remember him fondly.

Very bad, and very sad News Steve. My very best wishes to both of them for a speedy recovery.

Quite so Oldace. But it is FIVE Titles - that is all I am saying..................... The Price of a Bike these days - it sort of does.

I think that some of the Posts you have made on BFD show a lot more ignorance than mine Oldace. Are you continuing this argument because you regret yoour Statement and aren't sure how to get out of it? I sincerely hope so. Of course what BFD did was very wrong - I said that at the time, and I am not condoning his behaviour but, he served his sentence. Ward should NOT get a Wildcard for the reasons I have stated. He was Banned from the Qualifiers for the 2016 GPs - so - if he was Banned from the Qualifiers ie. was not allowed to take part in GP Qualifying - does that not imply that he should be Banned from entry to the 2016 GPs? I hold that it does. I await your logical answer - YES or NO will do.

However - TWO + THREE = FIVE, does it not?

I am sorry you see my comments that way. I think your comments regarding the death of BFD are way out of line. We must agree to differ on both your Comments, and Ward.

I have a Tablet - but I much prefer a Book in my hand. I just love Books.

As has been pointed out by me and others ad nauseam Oldace - his Ban covered the GP Qualifiers - so logically he should be Banned from the 2016 GP Series. I do agree though - there is not much logic in Speedway. Regarding my Post regarding BFD - my Statement still stands - once Ward has completed his FULL Sentence - I am happy to forgive and forget. Unlike you with your deplorable last sentence in your Post.

I'm not sure sydney. I would guess at Marijuana though. A Joint in the user parlance I believe...

For Pete's sake give up on quoting those funny fags. (Please Note - it is those funny fags and not them funny fags. As I said - back to School for you). It seems to me that funny fags are the only subject you are capable of Posting on - they come up in just about every Post you make. Try this for size - YOU ARE NOT FUNNY!!! A TRAGIC example of our Educational System maybe - but most certainly - not funny!!!

Whey Hey!!! There is hope for me yet. I'm only a young lad of seventy compared to Jozef. WELL DONE!!! to him.

Very sad this. Once again the 'Diamonds' are struck by injuries. Hope Lewis recovers well.

Very well put norbold. That is the nub of the whole argument. He was banned from the qualifiers for 2016 - so his Ban should cover 2016 GPs - that is only logic.. Next year he gets a 'clean sheet' and, as long as he behaves himself and qualifies for 2017 - that would be brilliant as far as I am concerned.

Is this the best you can come up with. I suppose things will improve once you get back to school. :rolleyes:

No I wouldn't sydney - that would be very wrong. As I said in earlier Posts, I believe that he should go through to the qualifiers for the 2017 GPs then, to my mind he will have served his punishment. To give him a free pass to 2016 would be almost like condoning what he did - in my view. I do know that no-one condones riding whilst over the Limit but the seemingly unholy rush to get Ward back in to the GPs makes it look that way to me. I love watching Darcy Ward race, he is one of the best Riders in the World - I know that. That does not excuse what he did though - or does it?

Spot on OveFundin. :approve:

A shame for the League Champions though you remember - (those are the ones who won the League) - whichever way it goes. :angry:

Don't suggest ' Dive Bombing' Poland. :shock:

I think we have drifted off the main Topic RD. Good Discussion though.

That too. :approve:

In some ways - YES. The price is too high - their stupid Rules and wanting things done their way is wrecking the Sport. They have far too much influence in the way the Sport is run. They are a Television Company - not Speedway Promoters. Don't worry - as soon as SKY thinks that Speedway has outlived it usefulness they will drop it ( they dropped the GPs) without any thought for you, me or anyone else.
