The White Knight

Those are my thoughts too iris123.

Except over Capital Letters. :D

I think this is a tremendous Thread. Great History and I have learned quite a bit too. Most contributors make this a real pleasure to read.

You are right - it is. He isn't worth a proper Reply.

Yes I do B.V72. To those who appear concerned about my Health - I am, touch wood, perfectly healthy at the moment thank you. I do thank you very much for your concern though - it is appreciated.

POSH!!! :shock: :shock: It "always amazes me" - how I have to decipher some Posts in order to grasp their meaning.

SUPERB!!!!! :rofl: BRILLIANT!!! :rofl: I can't stop laughing at these two Posts.

:rolleyes: :rolleyes:

Read it again orion. No name calling - just factually correct. I am beginning to despair of your powers of understanding too.

Possibly.

Nice one Jacques. :rofl:

Of course if it does become one 'big' League perhaps the BSPA could find a League Sponsor - no problem with League name then. The 'Walkers Crisps' Speedway League for example. But will the BSPA or Gospeed put themselves about to do that? We must wait and see.

If you include Sponsors (Television Publicity) you are probably right.

Oh - you do attend then. You must do to make a statement like that. Or - are you going on hearsay?

Post removed by The White Knight. I will not lower myself despite provocation.

I think you will find the word you are looking for is - 'seize'. 'Cease', in my case fits very well though. Again - I don't have to explain myself to you - but - I will. I am involved at Church on Sundays so it is not possible for me to get to the Speedway at Newcastle at the moment. If, however, if the Double Points were dropped I would change things around in such a way that would enable me to attend. It is difficult for a one off Meeting. You know I take people's Posts at face value most of the time - you and a couple of others who shall remain nameless (you know who they are) always want to know the far end of a fa*t. I hope my explanation satisfies you, though I do doubt it.

Oh Dear. Yes - I attended Speedway in the days of the old Tactical Substitute - I didn't agree with it then - but - I put up with it. Yes - I also attended for many years watching the Tactical Ride which used to incense me. Eventually I got to the point of saying to myself - I don't need this - for Health reasons alone I am packing it in until the Double Points is no more. If it stays - no more Speedway for me. I don't have to explain myself to you two but I have done so in good faith. Now if 'Dumb and Dumber' would take my reasons for packing in as the truth - perhaps we can move on.

I think there is a certain amount of truth in that.

That is my exact point about unfairness. Doesn't happen very often - but crucially - it can and does happen.

Fair point well put.

What Premier League Promoter with any sense at all would want to take his Club up in to the Elite League? Too expensive to run, not enough Teams, not enough variety of Competition - they would be mad to even think about it.

BOTH BBC Programmes - the BBC don't do Speedway. :sad:

Precisely.

Over 50.

Even more unfair if the Winning Team loses because of it. I ha boycotted the Sport as you put it for over two years now. I always hated Double Points, but I carried on for years getting upset and did nothing about it. I finally decided to make a stand on something I believe in. So - why is it strange?
