  1. I think PC is more remembered for all the trophies and success he had both internationally and at club level. However Swindon...... Not me, but I hate cheats. I had another go at the management about this only the other week. Such was the outcry from Aces fans that I cannot see anything similar happening again. Fan power, maybe worth a try?
  2. Now you don't need to bring your old EL average with you I can see a few lads like Barker, Worrall etc stepping up again next year.
  3. I think once you become known as cheats people can jump to the wrong conclusion. It goes with the territory.
  4. Even if it's not ready 'till late May early June that's still enough time to run the small amount of EL fixtures. I'll be making a trip down when it comes off.
  5. It's the rule for the play offs anyway. Darcy's influence, funny, very good. I don't think The Aces are reacting to sudden success but I reckon the team who have spent most of their existence making up the numbers may be.

  6. They could have just said he can't be arsed like AM & PK and just get a guest anyway.
  7. Old system Team A scores 46 out of 75 available to them = 61% Winner Team B score 44 out of 75available to them = 59% Loser Joker system Team A score 46 out of 75 available to them = 61% Loser Team B score 47 out of 78 available to them = 60% Winner
  8. Sign a rider who won't ride for you then when he doesn't ride for whatever reason just get a guest. That would never happen, surely?
  9. I'd have just done onto others and paid them a fee and told them to score two or less. Just not made that way I guess.
  10. If you get Cook & Wright then that strengthens you, unless they "do a Zengota".
  11. The fella responsible for the hose wasn't there as he lost his passport and another chap said he had a back injury that effected his work hours average whilst another bloke wasn't making a bona fide attempt to work, etc etc etc.
  12. Using the rule book as a guide complete the sentence, you can have a guest because ......
  13. Don't forget Miedzinski out of the team, er no he's back, wait make that Kildemand, oops he's not here, ok we'll have a guest. Why? Not sure.
  14. One of the more challenging things in life is not being the guy who does the cheating, but not saying anything about it and going along with it.
  15. Why would it be dumb? Unless you are suggesting the rider performed badly whilst guesting for his play off opponents on purpose. TBH I prefer your honesty about you cheating instead of this faux shock and denial from some robins fans.
  16. Before DAC takes over another thread with his anti play-off rhetoric he needs to get it in his head that the vast majority of the current 15,000 attending EL spectators like them.
  17. The personalised bricks will be built into an internal wall of honour in the entrance concourse while pavers to be used on an external walkway leading up to the main entrance are also available. A single brick is £49, a double brick is £99 and a replica for people wanting to keep one is £30. On placing your order you will receive a confirmation email and once the order is processed a certificate will be issued. http://www.bellevueaces.co/images/2015/nssbuyabrickorderform.jpg
  18. Absolute certainty as Worral is second behind Garrity by 0.04.
  19. Christ, it's only a bit of fun. I drag this one out every few years as some sort of pub quiz trivia. Looks like I misread the room.
  20. CRAVEN, CRAVEN, COLLINS, Lee, Havelock, CRUMP, CRUMP, CRUMP & Woffinden. 9 champs. 6 Aces.
  21. Well, I was answering the point you made about the expense of taking teenagers to speedway and showing it can be done for the price of a pint. If you had a speedway pot and spread the cost over a year it's £49 per month or £11 per week. Many families including me spread costs over a yearly period as you're correct in saying £168 a month is a lot, it is however similar to a family of four watching a 3D film every week. I think that's too much and as such rarely visit the cinema whereas years ago I attended weekly. I suppose I prioritise my leisure £. Having said all that I do believe the sport is overpriced but we appear to have painted ourselves into a corner there re costs for the competitors.
  22. Don't envisage a frosty atmosphere around the table more a supportive discussion on moving things forward - it's just the way we work. It would be a bit churlish to have a pop at Max as his fabulous performance during his steep learning curve (including the heat 15's) with us has helped see us into the play off zone. He will get all the support and encouragement from the management team and I'd be surprised if he's not another Aces world champion, just a shame he's not British. Out of the last nine British born world championship wins, six have won whilst an Ace and with the new academy going on stream I can only see that raising so it's win win really.
