  1. You could pay a student for a week to trawl through the various social media sites such as this, where they could not only document the various ideas but also rate their popularity. This is just PR. They have no interest in what we, collectively the largest investors in the sport, have to say.
  2. We know they are working to lessen the double up/down. When their plan works you have, say the Worrall twins, should they choose the top division averaging four rides a week over the season. When you take into account riding on bank holidays, even I’d be happy enough to let my lads off to participate in the highest level the UK can provide. I agree with your last sentence but unfortunately the powers that be didn’t.
  3. It’s not about what people want it’s about what’s best. Any successful person/business/organisation follows this rule. The implication is that they wanted what they’ve got, a seven team league where you finish mid table and still have a chance at being “champions” and where nearly half the teams are owned by one man.
  4. It’ll give the double up/down riders a chance to get use to riding once a week and therefore having to take a job outside speedway as we move towards the amateur league set up by 2022/23.
  5. It’s not just the fact it’s three clubs. With such a small league that’s 43%. Wheather true or not fans will cry foul if they think any manipulation is taking place between these teams and it will be yet another reason to walk away.
  6. Only time will prove wheather this works or not. Knowing Chapmans motives and the way he operates I’ve no doubt how it will go, not that I’ll be gloating in a year or so time. Certainly saves me a bob or two.
  7. When he was learning his trade with the Colts he took a tumble late one wet and freezing evening. I ran over to pick him out of the fence and whilst checking he was ok for his next ride I offered him a good deal on a candle. He told me to do one, the rest is history.
  8. Why did you mug that old lady? Him over there said it was alright. Where’s your own moral compass? Don't have one.
  9. I bought Bobby his first set when he came over from the states. These are my favourites.....
  10. 16.2.1.4 Updated MA’s will be calculated monthly on a rolling basis on all eligible meetings, up to and including 23rd of the month to become effective from the 1st of the following month. 27-09-18 Swindon v Belle Vue Premiership 34-56
  11. Not ironic at all unfortunately. If refs were suspended for wrongly calling against Belle Vue, we’d run out of refs pretty quick.
  12. Your inability to debate a point speaks volumes and vindicates the low opinion I have of you. Enjoy your wallowing in the demise of this once great sport of mine. In the ignore bin you go with the rest of them. Good ridence!
  13. Not a chance. The fact you sidestepped the post I was referring to shows you are fine with it. For that I have zero respect for you and all the rest who happily dance around the grave of British speedway, a grave dug by Ford and his Poole faithful. Ward could have just posted his congratulations but instead decided on an unnecessary attack on the imagined Poole haters. We hate cheats not Poole get it into your heads! Wards post was typical of many we see on here from down south that are there purely to stir up trouble. They serve no other purpose and it’s not only confined to Poole related threads, they contaminate the whole forum. I hope Ward and others read my response and when they feel hurt by it think, you know what I’m not going to post just to upset people as having read this response it’s not a good feeling. I’m probably clutching at straws but you have to hope. In speedway terms I do genuinely find you lot a hateful bunch and such is my love of this wonderful sport, I’m always going to be inclined to kick back. Just on that you will only ever find me responding to an initial hate post. I never, like you guys, feel the urge to start a fight but even though I bite my lip more often than not I cannot stand idle by whist you poke fun at and wreck this sport I love.
  14. The outcry over the refs performance is ringing out loud and clear on all social media platforms with some asking how he could be so wrong. As unpalatable as it is, it’s obvious why the decisions went the way they did and it’s not the first time this has happened with Ford involved. After years and years of cheating he feels bulletproof and now hardly attempts to hide his actions - unbelievable and sad in equal measures. I reckon another 10% will be knocked off the fan base with this latest fiasco and after years of this you have to ask when will it end? 10% equals around £500k a year less coming into the sport but that’s like water off a ducks back for the cheating scumbags down there who have no real love for this fabulous sport of ours. Dark days for the sport once again.
  15. With the lead up to this meeting and the way it’s panned out, is Ford doing a farewell greatest hits of some of his favourite cheats?
  16. Poole can’t use Morris in the away leg as his average is too high. They know the rules at the start of the season so if they don’t like it don’t take part, as is often trotted out. It’s Poole though so......... just clearing my throat............. Cheating scumbags!!
  17. If the penny hasn’t yet dropped for you about having play offs in speedway, then it never will.
  18. October. Are you coming to Kings Lynn? Yeh, wouldn’t miss is as we are likely to get a trophy. April. Are you coming to Kings Lynn? No it’s boring. May. Chapman issues a use it of lose it warning to the Stars “faithfully” Speedway promoting out of the top drawer.
  19. So we doctored the track to gain an advantage but lost by eight.
  20. Anybody got the stats on a chairman’s team winning the play offs?
