The White Knight

Where your argument falls down Colin is that Speedway Markets itself as a FAMILY Sport. I am lucky these days - I am a Pensioner and can take advantage of Concessions. However were I a younger man with a Family to take to the Speedway - I would have to think very hard whether to take them. There is not the money out there these days as there was in the past. People in some cases have to make up their minds whether to 'Heat' or 'Eat'. Food Banks proliferate. In that kind of climate you have to make Speedway AFFORDABLE. I, as I have said, am lucky, I can afford my Speedway. I am only too aware that there are those who cannot.

NOT the table I hope?

Mum, Dad and two youngsters over sixteen and still in education. Yes - I can certainly understand how cost "enters people's head". Especially in these times of austerity. What an odd comment for you to make.

I can't think of anything worse than that. :shock: :shock:

Fair enough screm. I was just fed up with everyone insulting Richard Hall. They were bl**dy glad to have him at Peterborough when they won the Elite League. Some folk have such short memories.

Careful AC - that smacks of common sense. Good Post.

I honestly believe that Richard Hall would be a great addition to the Panthers Team. Still - that's what it is all about - opinions.

Was that getting a Bath when you got home.

He's probably read some of Hougaard Racing Fans Posts, got frightened and has decided to go elsewhere. I know I would. :shock:

Nor should you. It's what the Thread is about.

No explanation necessary - others seem to have got my Point perfectly.

I thought someone on here had Posted ages ago that Dyer had retired. A real shame - I thought he had a decent future in the Sport. :sad:

Well said drosser.

Had he come from Bulgaria or Romania Pakistan or India - he would have got in no problem. Ooops!!! :o

Quite a coup for Newcastle. Very good dftftb. :rofl: I would like to reiterate what you say too. Very best wishes to all those who work so hard during the Winter to ensure we get our Speedway in the Summer. THANK YOU!!!

Well the BIGGEST disappointment for me will be if the Isle of Wight fail to come to the Tapes for 2014. I know that is not quite what you meant - but - I did take the Thread Title literally.

Do you not mean Petr Cech the Chelsea Goalkeeper?

Looks like he's gone west for this Season anyway. :rolleyes:

DAMN!!!! Rumbled.................................................. :rofl:

I didn't KNOW that it was him - I know that there was conjecture on here though.............................................

Yes you are - but - there are ways of saying it. I am not in the habit of taking remarks out of context. You said, and I quote: "Don't really care" you were talking about Glasgow. Not much to take out of context there - is there? No - thought not. :rolleyes:

I'm a bit embarrassed because the Great War is one of my Hobbies.

Thank you for pointing that out folks. I have edited my Post. Sorry.

Regarding SKY coverage. I still want to know why/how a Deal was announced be a Promoter weeks ago. :unsure: If there is NO Deal - how could he do this - or - was he lying?

"Don't really care". What an attitude that is. Surely the Team is better than what looked to be the alternative only a few short weeks ago - that was NO Speedway at all. "Don't really care". It beggars belief. I am NOT a Glasgow Supporter but I am delighted that they have a Team and are coming to the Tapes in 2014. Good luck to them I say. I wish I had a Sunderland Team to support. "Don't really care". I despair.
