He was brave telling the Referee to put her knitting down!

Listen, it's a lot funnier than what's going on in the sport right now!

I thought you knew the gag, it goes with the clown and the art of repartee

No I just wondered if you'd gone through life making no end of an ass of yourself

Like Sandhu?

Nope

Have you ever been the rear end of a pantomime horse?

Have you ever been the front end of a pantomime Horse?

Fair comment but for those teams that employ those riders and continuously put Workington in the waiting room is hardly Workington's fault. When you have teams (2 that I know of) declining fixtures because their star is injured when a guest facility was available and at least 1 team declining because they were racing in the Fours at Redcar the next day is unacceptable. 2 of those clubs were offered 3 dates and turned them all down! How many years have Workington and Berwick together with their visitors for example raced on a Saturday and then tripped overnight to Peterborough for a Fours with a 2 o'clock strat?

You asked for an honest answer, wtf has Berwick got to do with it? Jacko was asking teams to visit (the strongest team in the league) and they were refusing for a variety of reasons (usually rider availability) maybe on the nights some of those teams went to Berwick they had their riders or fancied their chances with a guest at Berwick. Maybe they couldn't go to Workington 'cos they were riding at Berwick Don't ask for an honest answer if you don't want one, this forum really pees me off when you tell people the truth they don't want to believe it, crack on then I'm out of this one.

'cos no bstard would accept a fixture!

Did you see the meeting or just the result?

Proctor gobbing off again?

Absolutely not, I've known him a long time

Frankly his behaviour makes him unemployable even when he has a point he just doesn't know how to make it other than to become abusive and confrontational.

You mean like Barry Hearn?

I was saving that as my "Coup de Grace"

To a degree it's this cynical approach that probably means it will never ever happen. Why don't you buy a Speedway Club and then you can go to the meetings?

I'm all for renaming the Play Offs as the "Up Yours" Trophy ! We can all change our race night music to "Friday On My Mind" Muck fe even Robinson Crusoe can ride on Friday !!!!!!!!

Look, Ben has special needs you can't discriminate against him like that.

Maybe Peterborough have objected

Most Promoters and Team Managers have made it quite clear that this is expected of them but trying to get the riders to deliver on it leads to unnecessary confrontation at a time when every point counts. When they've got their racing heads on a lot of them can be absolute rsoles and you've got one in your team! Buy him a tyre or a bit of fuel now and again and he'll talk to you stop for a couple of weeks and he'll blank you and move on.

There are and have been, they got burnt by the rest of them!

So you feel Rob should be allowed to change his 1-7 after the cut off date when no-one else is? Taking a poor performer out who is uninjured or not withholding his services does not allow a NL guest particularly if the rider says he is fit/capable. You'd no doubt feel better if a NL bandit had scored 2 or 3 points last night but that's hardly fair on the visitors, Rob, somewhat understandably, was strengthening up - a bit like Sheffield did with a facility for Shanes last week.

Enjoy your rest, it would have been a lot more palatable for those affected clubs if the fixture list hadn't been adopted by the BSPA. Let's be honest both the home and away clubs had agreed to every Friday fixture that was in the list so wtf were the rest of them doing when this occurred?
