Well that's the way it reads to me. It still does. Never mind, at least we have established that you are not accusing me of lying. That's the main thing.

Read your Post again. I'll even quote it for you: "Surely treating fans as mugs is thinking they are so thick as to swallow your lies a la Hancock". I have read it a few times, and it still intimates that I lied whka1 - and I did not knowingly do so.

Yeah. But I still don't understand where I told any lies, of which I stand accused. Hancock may have lied, I don't know. I only know that I didn't unless through error.

Crikey!!! You lost me there. What lies would those be then? I may have made a mistake but, I do not deliberately lie. Too many people on here are far too quick to call people liars.

If I knew the answer to that - I would be the greatest Speedway Promoter ever. I'm afraid I don't - so I'm not. :sad:

So would I if I had seen it. :shock: Being a bit of a pessimist - I would have assumed that there was something wrong with my Computer. :rolleyes: Panic would have set in. :D

Part of the reason Speedway will go down the pan. Who can forget the days of Jack Millen storming up to the Referee's Box to 'politely' query a decision on occasions. The same Jack Millen who kicked some lights at Peterborough, I think it was? He needed a Police escort from the Stadium. Ron Wilson at Teesside loved Jack Millen - he always reckoned that Jack could add 500 on to the Gate at Cleveland Park. Why? Because he was a CHARACTER, an ENTERTAINER - probably would not be allowed to race nowadays. People wonder why Gates are down, at least part of the reason is there are no Characters/Entertainers/Villains to attract them. All very sad.

I second that. Well done Matt.

My absence is a protest against Double Points. I still love my Speedway though. One Meeting in three years or more and that was this Season. I only went to see a Sunderland 'Stars' Team riding at Redcar. I had to go, just to see the Sunderland Racejackets back on Track again. Many thanks to Kevin Keay (Promoter) for putting it on.

Jeremy Doncaster was right, in my opinion.

Yaaaay!!! The Kangaroo is back. :party: Cheers Dandelion.

The Supporters paid to watch Riders race - not tootling around. I would have preferred to see him at least give the impression of racing - at least that would have not brought the Sport in to disrepute. More honest, he may have been - not necessarily though - he could also have done it to say 'look at me' - thus detracting from the racing efforts by his compatriots.. Stupid he certainly was - treating the Supporters as mugs. From the way he finished with the Sport - I think we know all we need to know about Mr. Penhall.

Great News Skid. :approve:

You could always buy a Book..................................... :unsure:

Yeah!! You are probably right. That is one way of curbing criticism. :angry:

You may or may not be right. I don't think that you are. My point was that this particular argument has been flogged to death. Dragging it up again will, in all probability, just cause more trouble on this Thread. That said - you have every right to your opinion.

Ivan Mauger Barry Briggs Peter Collins Ole Olsen Anders Michanek Nicki Pedersen Gary Havelock Jason Crump Michael Lee That is all I can think of at present.

Crikey!! :shock: You are right Rob. It is a hell of a lot of money. Who gets the £1,000 by the way?

They can and do at Football - I hope I never hear of it at British Speedway.

That made me laugh fliss. :rofl: :rofl:

Pity that Skid. It would have been interesting - never mind though - you did well to get the Attendance Poll under way.

I think this has been done to death quite frankly. Or - are you just trying to cause trouble?

I thought Soren was brilliant, I didn't see too much of Christer.

Never mind Characters among the Promotion Staff. Where have all the characters gone amongst the Riders?

Hey - Dandelion - where's your kangaroo gone? :shock: I liked that Avatar. If I may be so bold - I'm not keen on the new one. :nono:
