Birmingham V Poole Grand Final 2nd Leg


Recommended Posts

Good spot SGP. if you google Barry the cat and graham drury there is an interesting link.

 

Seems you have slipped up there boyo!

 

What's that old saying about keep your friends close and your enemies closer!

 

Perhaps you should be sticking up for your employee rather than trying to shaft him at every given opportunity?

 

Ha ha, unfortunately you are barking up the wrong tree Dickie boy, pleased that I am not GD - having to be associated with mavericks like your brother and UKM would send me grey & bald!

I must say, even though I didnt like the result on Monday (being a birmingham fan) the poole fans i was with were wicked and really good to talk too. they just wanted to see some good racing and make sure speedway is around next year - top fans

I dont believe that, I think he was just unlucky, pressure got to doyle in heat 1 at poole but over both legs by far your best rider. I have always been a fan of danny king and he deserved a world cup place, how can he be left out and Barker left in!

 

Not sure over Barker either, depends how much of Horton's earlier outbursts were hot air and if not, if it's worth fighting it and missing out on other riders in the meantime.

 

What I'm getting at is for 3 years the Brummies have stuck with a basic spine of a side, I'm not slagging off the riders concerned, but wondering if maybe it's time to go in a different direction.

Double bluff. Come out from behind your mask. Why people hide behind a forum name always amuses me boyo.

....but surely that side got you to the top of the league and into the final!

I certainly did. The fact is, that it was announced that air horns should not be used, and the Poole fans deliberately ignored this. Brian Buck was told that they (Poole supporters) did not care if Birmingham Speedway was closed down.

dont tar all the Poole fans with the same brush.

 

its only the select few wallys that want to see clubs struggle! They wont be happy until Poole have nobody left to race against

A cheaper direction more than likely.

 

Time for Birmingham to give Coventry a chance of the play offs by letting them use their best riders............................. :wink:

This posting is pure hearsay and should be removed in the interests of truth. Take note Phil !

Just frustrating to have someone score double figures consistently at home then go AWOL in the play offs and occasional last heat decider.

I'm not a doctor but I can help with the diagnosis on this one. Danny was suffering from an attack of Bjerre Syndrome. :P

Oh really, perhaps you would like to enlighten us. NO Poole fan wants to see ANY club shut down. Why shouldn't air horns be used, you live in a bleedin town centre with more noise than that surrounding the stadium. What numptie came up with that??

You may well have missed it in a long thread, but Brian Buck's post #672 sets out the background and will be of assistance.

The numptys that run our council Starman6. It was a proviso of our planning permission that No AIR HORNS were to be used at Perry Barr. Which Tony Mole readily agreed to so that the Brummies could once again take their rightful place back in Speedway,

It states in the programme that air horns are banned and despite several requests from supporters, myself being one, and requests over the tannoy as to refrain from using them Poole suppoters continued to do do even whilst the announcement was being made.The request was met with a torrent of abuse, mine was " if you want it come and get it" unfortunately I'm on crutches otherwise I would have done and probably rammed it happily down her throat! Especially after she commented so what we don't care!!!!

 

Edinburgh and Newcastle, both came to Brum in the PL days by the coach loads and played the game the Scots even had the bagpipes but not an air horn in site and we had not an Iota of trouble with either set of supporters. Is it any wonder Poole are the most reviled team in British speedway?

Another thread that's being heavily moderated in the totally independent BSF. I do wonder sometimes how far the rotten core of the BSPA stretches.

 

Wouldn't it be easier to stop digging and just walk away, a quick glance of "social media" shows your complete lack of maturity, I am of course referring to "some muppet throwing themself in front of a train" holding up your journey.

 

Alongside references to calling Poole "cheats" (Please enlighten me as to how they are "cheats") its hardly the actions of someone who is professional, I would personally walk away and be glad that Matt Ford doesn't get his "famous" chequebook out and offers you a trip to court....

 

In any sport, all officials are open to charge of bringing that sport into disrepute and the sanctions / fines that go with it, why you feel that you are above that I really don't know.

Another poster hiding behind their forum name. I'm transparent Mr Sensible. Who are you?

 

Ignoring my questions? Fair enough pal, I've got nothing to hide behind, I am a fan saddened by "Officials" airing there dirty laundry in public, whether that be you or any of the other Social Media gaffes this season.

 

Hardly ever going to encourage sponsors, agreed?

 

And if you have been treated badly then you have my upmost sympathy, but seriously if it was me I would walk away, write a book on it if needs be, I am sure you have plenty of stories, that would attract the interest of people on here.
