hagonshocker Posted October 11, 2013 Report Share Posted October 11, 2013 Really? I hadn't noticed!  IMO Steve just saying your obsession with Poole is getting a bit much now! And you just need to calm down a bit. If speedway gets you this stressed out maybe you should take a break from it! You go girl!  They don't go over anyones heads. His posts are moronic in the extreme. Just a massive hatred of all things Poole that he can't control, so all his posts spew the same venom. ( which is cured by laughing at them)  He loses it so regularly he has served two bans in the last couple of months. How long before he goes off on one agains and is given anothe enforced time out? I predict a week on Monday if Poole win the title.  Gavan with SteveBrum make the unintentional comedy act on the forum. Guess his hatred of all things Poole are outweighed by your hatred off all things that are NOT Poole......?  ive always said:  Matt Ford is a promoter who does his best for Poole speedway and his astute signings have got Poole to the play offs.  Matt Ford isnt good for British Speedway with the constant rule bending.  I got banned for calling someone a numpty. been far worse ive seen on numerous posts on here but some people get a bit over emotional.  Im not anti Poole. Im anti Matt Ford for the health of British Speedway.  Im anti Poole fans like Shovlar and Internetman  They cant debate or have a reasoned discussion.  I put a valid point of how Pooles injury to Ward helped them strengthen. They dont reply I ask why its called cheating for Kildemand to stay down and not Ward. They dont reply. I put up a point that in elite league Howarth is better than Dyer. They dont reply.  Shovlar is the biggest troll on here and does not understand the bigger picture.  Synikalle, Foreverblue, Dorsetdelight, PirateNick , and sometimes Skidder are decent Poole fans who will defend there team and rightly so and sometimes will have a dig at me and i will back - no problems. These guys are speedway supporters.  Shovlar comedy gold  sorry and Starman is a decent Poole fan to Dont forget Piratecast lisa-collette Poolequay7 etc Gavan......but you had to ruin it by including Starman...... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â Â Dont forget Piratecast lisa-collette Poolequay7 etc Gavan......but you had to ruin it by including Starman...... Everybody has there opinion.. Come and meet me Hagonshocker, you'll soon change your mind. Â Why not - as long as you are winning and you have sponsors - everything will be great! Mate, you keep banging on about us winning and having good sponsors, Then why can't others do the same? Take a look in your programme at the credits, it reads very well, ask yourself the question, why are you skint?, now, you have the facilities at your club, and you should be, like us in the play off's every year. Rosco's doing nothing wrong, but clearly you need to attract more fans through the gate, and some more sponsorship. You are a bigger area than poole. But you need to make the club more appealing. I took a walk around the Abbey a few weeks ago, its a dump. Presentation is everything,. Matt Ford does his job, he goes out and gets sponsors, you cannot expect sponsors to come to you and bang on your door...

E I Addio Posted October 11, 2013 Report Share Posted October 11, 2013 Greg wont be seen for dust for a full EL season. Â Exactly. Let's not forget that the omly reason he was here in the first place was because he lost his job in Poland when his Polish club dropped him in order to save money once they were out of the play-offs. Â Matt'sThree Stooges have tried to dress it up as part of Fords so-called promotional genius but the fact of the matter is that Poole were lucky in the sense that Holders injury just happened to coincide with Greg needing a job. If it had been Neils or fast Freddie that was injured Greg would just as easily have been KL or Wolvs or anywhere else who needed someone on his average at the time he needed a job. Fair play to Poole for getting him, but it was because the cookie crumbled their way at the right time and the only way you'll see Greg over here again is if and when he doesn't have a place in Poland or Sweden. Nothing to do with Ford's alleged promotional skills 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gavan Posted October 11, 2013 Report Share Posted October 11, 2013 It will be a very sad day if that happens, not sure i will bother going much. why?

He has an agent that does that who takes a cut of what he brings in. At least one other club uses the same agent but if you speak to the person concerned he will tell you that by the nature of the area its easier to generate sponsorship around Poole than certain other areas. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not entirely accurate!! Matt has a third party to sell advertising space in the programme and in the stadium. Matt and his co-promoters gets the actual sponsors in!

Only a matter of time before Ward and Holder even Tai and NKI decide not to ride here.  The league is dying dont know why Poole fans expect things to be different Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree Buckowski is very entertaining, he may be your best rider at the showground, perhaps a bad example, as for PK he was one of the riders that maybe we wouldn't be able to fit in.

I wouldn't be happy either. That's why the admission cost needs to reduce at the same time as we lose the top riders to make savings. Alternatively, as others have suggested, perhaps the new team-building rules will concentrate only on those riders who are based in UK for the whole season - thereby saving all air fares etc 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We experienced a drop in attendance when we dropped into the then National League, but crowd attendances were soon back to normal once people realised the racing itself was just as good to watch and I'm sure that would be the case if the big boys don't ride next year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LagutaRacingFan Posted October 11, 2013 Report Share Posted October 11, 2013 If the admission prices remain the same but the quality of riders drops then I'm giving up with speedway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
