The White Knight

Thanks Steve - some good news at last.

I could say that it is none of your business - but because I try to be a gentleman - I won't. What I will say is: Lighten up!!

ABSOLUTE CLASS!!!!! :rofl: :rofl: I find that funny too Jacques - in a jokey sort of way. :rofl:

Despite losing TWO Riders through - injury.

People are pulling my leg over my curiosity regarding something called norbold's hole. I am playing along with them. I do hope that explains things to your satisfaction. As I said - it is only a bit of fun.Their comments make me smile, and I hope that my comments make them smile.

Concussion apparently. I don't think he can ride for seven days.

Some of us were having a bit of fun with this. Perhaps that shouldn't be allowed.

Oh - sorry Jacques - I was having a bit of fun. I am sorry about that.

Aaaaaaaaargh!!!! :mad: I think I'm about ready to give up on this. :sad:

WHAT!!! ......................... the hell is Norbold's hole? :mad: Not you as well PW. :sad:

Now you are just trying to upset me. :D

What a fine prospect Robert Lambert is turning out to be. He was superb this evening. I doubt I have ever seen a sixteen year old show so much maturity on a Speedway Bike before. Not only did he win Races for fun - he Team rode like a veteran. I wish him all the very best in the future. If he stays as grounded - as he appeared to be on Television tonight - he may be another English Rider to get to the very top of the Sport. I certainly hope so. I thoroughly enjoyed watching him this evening.

No Jacques - I don't. Sexism is very wrong too. I do the ironing in our house. So YES - I condemn that as well. (unless, of course, it is in a humerous context). :shock:

If no-one speaks out - then the situation will just go from bad to worse. THAT is why I am Posting as I have done on here. IF that is the case - which I would argue isn't always true - are those hurling abuse back not just as bad. Everyone on here makes daft Posts sometimes - I have had to apologise on here a number of times. I just wish everyone could 'get on'. Not agree, but at the very least 'get on'. Without the hostility it isn't necessary. I direct my comments to Starman and sidney, myself, and everyone else.

Peace be with you too my son. :rofl: :rofl:

Yes - can't argue with that. I also note that it is the same half dozen people who keep ganging up on certain Forum Members. Most Posters on here do not get involved in such childish practices. If you are going to call me the conscience of the Forum - at least have the good grace to spell it right. :rolleyes: :D I would deny that anyway - I am just asking for fair play to everyone - or - do you object to that.

You wish............................ :rofl:

The main problem would seem to be the Lay Down Engines. Speedway is all about sliding a Bike - to do that properly you need Dirt. You cannot give these Lay Down Engines Dirt as you explain in your excellent Post below. The Sport used to be known as Dirt Track Racing and was a great spectacle - today however - it is still a spectacle but, without Dirt, it simply isn't the same or as safe. That is though, only my opinion. Great Post. I am prepared to admit that you know more about the Technical Side of Speedway than me - so I accept what you say.

Not by everyone - certainly not by me. People are entitled to their views and I respect them for that. I do not necessarily agree with them though. Increasingly on this Forum there is unpleasantness toward other Members. I don't like that. I can be quite acidic myself at times but I never deliberately set out to wind people up, and in some cases get them banned. I thought this Forum was for the enjoyment of everyone - not somewhere that those with opposing views should be vilified and pilloried. I am sorry - but that is the way I see it.

Typical Post from you Blazeaway. Contributes nothing to what was developing in to a very interesting discussion. You know what I meant.

Because they are French perhaps....................................

............... and some of the Bikes are far too fast for the Tracks they are expected to race on.

Very funny that SCB. :rofl:

The Bikes are a big part of the trouble. I am convinced of that.

I think you are very cruel norbold. :rofl: ..................... and a very good job you are doing protecting it. DAMN IT!!! :mad:
