The White Knight

Only if you Publish them.......................................................................

We have always been made VERY welcome at Brough Park and loads of good folk know where we are from - no-one makes us feel unwelcome and we always have some playful banter. We have great chat and great fun - apart from Double Points, which, in the area we stand, mostly agree the Rule is ridiculous. It is truly a shame that it can't always be like that. :sad:

:rofl: Just the sort of response I expected - I find it all VERY sad. WE come to Newcastle from Sunderland each week - why would a few folk from Sunderland put off Newcastle Supporters - or - is it that Football thing again. :sad:

But that would NOT attract anyone from the biggest connurbation on the North East Coast.

But it ISN'T is it? It might (arguably) have the best Riders - but certainly on the evidence of the last few Seasons on the Television it doesn't have the BEST Racing. Let's face it THAT is what we go to watch.

I did indeed Synikalle - I was 19 years old. That was in 1964 at Sunderland. I've been hooked for nearly Forty years. Recently I have become very depressed and cynical about the state of the Sport I love(d) - it is certainly not the same nowadays - and some of the Rules beggar belief.

They did indeed Abbott - but crucially - Parsloe's Post stated that changing the name to perhaps capture folk from other areas would be a good idea - I believe it is a VERY worthwhile suggestion. I think I have come up with the perfect answer for Newcastle. Don't you?

Hey Parsloes - what a great idea. Newcastle 'Diamonds' could start a National League Team - I wonder what they could call it? EUREKA!!!! I know................................... SUNDERLAND 'STARS'!!! Now wouldn't THAT be great.

Ahh!! Thanks - must be me.

Any one know what happened to the Air Fence Newcastle were supposed to get from Peterborough a while ago? I can't remember why - but I'm sure I remember something about this.

Speaking as one of those will 'no longer be around' - you are right - on this Point at least. That is why I 'Liked' your Post.

Ah - but would Lewis Bridger know the difference between Craig Cook and Trigger??

But crucially - NOT all............................................. Those who don't will be at an even bigger disadvantage. It all seems so very unfair on the youngsters - the future of our Sport. :sad:

I'm going back a bit I know - so please humour me: i] Graeme Smith. ii] Jack Millen. iii] Russ Dent. Well - I can dream of those days - can't I? :) If you were talking specifically of last Season - I apologise for Posting this.

Whilst I agree with the main thrust of your argument - it has to be said that if one Rider is streets ahead in ability to the rest of his competition - wins by miles every time he races - then that IS a bit boring for the Spectator who enjoys good Racing.

Never heard anything about it - how unusual.

Well they Could Ride against them THREE times to make up the Meetings - oh!! - and the money of course. :rofl:

Well I certainly wouldn't. I'm a Single Malt Whisky man.

What about David Howe - I saw him score a brilliant 18 Point Maximum at Brough a couple of years ago.

I liked her TWICE as well. :D

I didn't like the Post Aleksandr - but I DO like the Whisky. :rofl: :party:

We already have a naturalised Australian - he is called Tai Woffinden. :shock: .................................... only kidding - before anyone starts.

If Peterborough doesn't run in the new Season - it is finished. There will be NO comeback. The 'Nimbys' will see to that. At the moment they have to live with it as the Speedway was there first - if it closes........................................................................................ :sad:

Had you asked - I would have given you a push.

This turns our League in to a complete JOKE!! Surely these Meetings will not count towards the Play Offs or for Points in the League. If you need Points pick the BOTTOM Team. If you need Money - pick your local rivals (the most likely). WHAT ARE THEY TRYING TO DO TO SPEEDWAY!!! :sad:
