GS550

First one. Not really. A reasonable enough open question neither one way or the other as an open question is. Second one. That is also possible although Sedgmen's last match was too little too late, my point was to speculate what Sedgmen's scoring would have been at Armadale although possibly balanced out by Nowak's scoring at Ashfield i.e. consistent scoring over a few matches, so essentially just a balanced view of 'what ifs', this way or that.

Not at all. You obviously can't handle the reasonable enough question.

Looks like you're bodyswerving the question to me. Nothing to do with grapes, apples, or any other fruit or food product. Only asked an open question. Maybe there should be a ban on postage stamp tracks, not for one particular team but for the sake of the sport generally. Maybe not, its an open question.

Who is "you"?? I only asked an open question.

Not ridiculous at all. An open question. Its a discussion forum. It's got you talking. The 'what ifs' were also balanced out e.g. I mentioned that Brennan cancelled out Ostergaard, and Nowak cancelled out Sedgmen. Again, it's a discussion forum. If you don't like discussion then maybe don't use a discussion forum.

Wow you don't read posts at all!! In answer to your "wrong end of the stick'" false assumption, not at all in fact. If you read my original post again or actually read what it says for the first time by the sound of it then you would see that it's an open question. And my point about Brennan was a fair/balanced assessment that his contribution probably would not have been bettered by Ostergaard, and again that Sedgmen and Nowak's contributions probably cancelled each other out.

The question arises, how different would it have been if the match had been ridden on an actual speedway track rather than a postage stamp 'Mickey Mouse' track. And should there be a minimum size of track to be permitted to stage official speedway meetings. 'Racing' at Armadale never seems to look like 'speedway' as most people know it, the riders seem to stall and almost come to a complete halt on the bends. That an experienced Polish rider couldn't even turn the bike on it probably says more about the deficiencies of the track than it does the rider. Other 'what ifs' such as if Ostergaard had been fit, although unlikely to have done better than Brennan, and Sedgmen would probably have done better than Nowak at Armadale although probably less well at Ashfield so again probably cancels out.

Well that's the first time I have been this year!

Was it not Wright that got excluded when Starke came down?

Oooh err.... I've no observation here at all

It's a long walk!

Really? What's happened. (serious question)

Not me, I'm not interested. I am interested in discussing about Glasgow 2019 though. What's the latest (serious question).

I did say it was only meant as a joviality and had no intent to cause any offence. Now discussing all things Glasgow folks....

I did my best, it was to no avail so whoever wants last word or to discuss can do so if they want, I did me best. Now discussing all things Glasgow...

Easy to say that when you haven't been on the receiving end of it Dorothy and haven't been in the position. I've certainly never experienced anything like it in my life. I tried my best to help and gave doc the opportunity to agree to disagree, etc, it's been to no avail. I did my best.

Yep. Should be again soon.

Not at all. Easy to say that when you haven't been on the receiving end of it and haven't actually been in the position. Nothing to do with last word either. Certainly as far as I was concerned I was happy to try to help, nothing more nothing less. I knew/know that there was no intent at all. I've done my best and it's been to no avail.

In answer to your comments: 1. "You started the issue by making an offensive comment to me" ANSWER: No I didn't, I clarified it was only jovially and light-hearted. It was also long after your badgering me with pm's so by then it had become a bit secondary. 2. "I simply replied to your repeated pm's asking for an apology. You didn't want to give one." ANSWER: To clarify, I only asked that you respect my (previous) request to stop sending me pm's. Your pm's by this time were also full of derisive language so this was hardly an appropriate basis for discussing anything and especially as I had already previous asked you to stop sending me pm's. Will come back to below. 3. "i'm quite happy with my language thanks and you interpreting it as derisive is just your view of that." ANSWER: Well that's a pity as your posts to me and your pm's are full of derisive language. Honestly, you would get nowhere in the business world using that type of language, nowhere. In summary, I've made a jovial light-hearted comment, I was quite happy with no intent whatsoever, you've take it the wrong way and gone off the deep end, sending me repeated pm's. Perhaps if you'd used more reasonable language in the first instance in your representations to me, respected my request to stop sending me pm's, etc, then there would have been no problem. There's certainly no way that I would wish to cause offense to anyone, that just isn't me. Unfortunately you've jumped off the deep end, that's just been the way of it, and that you're content to discuss using derisive language all the time unfortunately hasn't helped. So on that basis, sadly, yes it does appear to be pointless as you say.

But why the derisive language all the time? Its a fair question. You always laden with derisive wording e.g. "you weren't man enough apologise" - first of all why not simply say (factually) to somebody that they haven't apologised. I did say before that there was nothing to apologise for in the first place. If an apology is due to somebody I give it no question but there wasn't anything. Not a thing. I was quite happy with no intent whatsoever - none at all. Somehow you've taken it the wrong way, that's all, that's the sum total of it. On the other hand your badgering of me with repeated pm's wasn't right, you must know that yourself. Come on, agree to disagree and get on.

On what basis. I've done nothing wrong. I asked for someone else to stop sending me offensive pm's but the persisted - so you think that's ok? Other than that I've only answered his posts. You don't know me at all, I'm just an ordinary guy same as you.

Why the derisive language all the time - "since your hissy fit" - are you really so immature that you cannot speak without making derisive personal slights all the time. There was no hissy fit as you immaturely speak, I asked you stop sending me pm's but you kept sending me them, that is simply immature behaviour on your part. You then say can you leave it now - I already gave you an opportunity to do so but you instead came back with further immature derisive comments and personal slights, very immature behaviour on your part. As for your comment to wait for the mod to deal with you, you mean wait for the mod to deal with you . You are the one that's totally out of order and sending pm's etc but which you repeatedly violated so if anyone is to be dealt with by the mod it will be yourself. You have behaved appallingly. I've stopped reading pm's anyway so as to avoid receiving your messages.

You certainly did not!

It would be if the young whippersnapper had any common sense. I've certainly haven't contacted him. He does appear rather unstable.

No worries. You obviously know nothing about me. A helpful word in your ear, you would do well to get rid of all the derisive personal comments and personal slights littered throughout your posts and of course your pm's. At the end of the day the vast majority of people mean well practically all of the time and I'm no different. You're a younger generation but my generation have respect for people and that when someone says don't pester me with personal messages it is respected and followed. Enjoy your speedway.
