The White Knight

Anybody seen Dandelion lately?

Controversial or what?

I do hope it doesn't rain. That's the problem with attempting to squeeze so many Meetings in at the end of the Season. Especially after the number of blank weekends during the Summer.

No!!!

I am very sad to hear of Charles's injury. Best wishes to him for his recovery. Let's hope that he is fit for the start of next Season.

That reminds me. I noticed you never replied to my question wkha1 - do you condone bullying or not? Gemini is no bully - she is one of the better Posters on here. I realise your Post was tongue in cheek by the way. You just reminded me of an earlier Post.

It might help if you quoted my full Post. (see below). Then you needn't have asked the question. I highlight the relevant part for your perusal.

You couldn't make it up. Except they have.

I will not be there. Monday Night is bad for me. Newcastle's normal day is a Sunday which suits me fine. To be totally honest, I would not have gone anyway as I have made, what I consider to be, a principled stand of not returning to Speedway until Double Points is gone. Then the Promoters should ask themselves - WHY?

Don't be silly - of course I am not happy. What a bloody stupid question. I have explained numerous times why I don't go - I will not go to Speedway to get myself angry and upset. You might think that is daft, reading your Post, you probably do. I will say this yet again - remove the Tactical Ride and I will return, there are more folk than just me think it is a pathetic Rule but do the Promoters listen? Do they listen to Supporter's Views on Doubling Up which I don't like either, but would not stop me attending? The simple answer is - no they don't. Stupid Rules make a great Sport stupid. If Speedway is to go down the pan - it is on their heads, not mine. I hope that makes my position clear - and answered your ridiculous statement/question. EDIT: I maintain my interest in the Sport purely in the hope the day will come that Double Points is scrapped.

Cracking Post Fourentee. Great to read about memories of a true great of British Speedway.

More Tracks than Wimbledon had a 'Track Spare' ond - Norwich had a very famous one which the great Ove Fundin used to ride.

I have replied to your PM. Best. Ian.

We can only wait and see.

George Barclay used to run a Training School at Rye House until, I think a couple of years ago. He is now retired.

Perhaps this might just provide a glimmer of light for a positive outcome. I certainly hope so. Actually Swindon winning the Play Off Final won't do their Case any harm either.

I remember him. Rode in spectacles, as I believe did Dave Baugh if I remember correctly. Happy days!!!

I don't want any more Tracks to close. You are correct when you say things need to change. It is how that change is managed that is important. Forcing Clubs to change their Meeting days could and probably will result in Track closures. You say "tough" for some Tracks. I sincerely hope one of them isn't yours. I'm sorry I just don't get how saving Speedway equates with Track closures.

................. or if you have plenty of money, I would imagine.

'BackTrack' is GREAT!!! As is my 'Classic Speedway' that arrived today.

My best wishes go to Tomasz.

Once again Stadia availability has to be taken in to account. What if that suggestion cause Track to close? What is your answer to that? Or perhaps you will just say - Tough. I would be interested to know.

Unless they are running a Garage just off the A19.

YES!!! Always on hand to help other Riders out in the Pits - a genuine Team Man. I watched Robbo closely when I used to go and can Team Ride too. For once I am honestly not having a go at Lindgren here - I just feel that Robbo is by far the better man for the job. You did ask.

Because you should try to put your best Riders out.
