Guest Posted February 24, 2014 Report Share Posted February 24, 2014 Not sure PW, but perhaps the Slough Rangers, cycle speedway team, may have hosted an England v Wales test, sadly I believe they are now defunct, unlike the mighty motorcycle version, which goes from strength to strength!

You're another one who can't wait to jump on my comments. I didn't raise the original mention of the Slough Rangers cycle speedway team. But obviously "it's a gustix post so let's the blame him!"

SCB Posted February 24, 2014 Report Share Posted February 24, 2014 Why the hell do the mods allow post about "Slough Speedway" to be posted? it has a thread in the General Section that frankly shouldn't be there and if thats not bad enough we have to put up with pointless, inane comment about "Slough Speedway" on other threads. It wasn't funny in the first place it's now just annoying. And to think we had to stop talking about betting on the meeting threads as it was upsetting people, it was totally relevant to the meeting, more so that fake speedway teams.

Sadly, many other threads on the BSF tend to go deviate from their initial theme. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldace Posted February 25, 2014 Report Share Posted February 25, 2014 I agree with you. Sadly, many other threads on the BSF tend to go deviate from their initial theme. Years ago someone started a thread as to whether there was any speedway in Slough and would it be on SKY. It was simply a p1ss take response to the countless brain dead questions as to whether SKY were showing matches and a particular poster giving the forum his location for a given evening as Slough and wanting to know where he could find some local speedway. It was very funny for a week or so but one or two carried it on ad infinitum well past the point of funny and into merely annoying. Now one of the forums less intelligent posters has made reference to it in a totally unrelated thread meaning if you hadn't seen the original you would (as you did) wonder what the hell he was wittering on about.

I am not a legal professional Oldace, but to state Slough Speedway does not exist, I wonder whether it could be classed as slander? Unless having to shower in one of her majesty's establishments, is not a concern to you! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted February 25, 2014 Report Share Posted February 25, 2014 Looking at recent Posts - have we now dropped what the thread title indicates - 'Speedway in Wales'? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldace Posted February 25, 2014 Report Share Posted February 25, 2014 Looking at recent Posts - have we now dropped what the thread title indicates - 'Speedway in Wales'? Do you never learn. If you have something to say about speedway in Wales the say it. How do you go on down the pub? Does your group pick subjects to talk about with the only conversation allowed to be on that subject or does conversation naturally flow from one subject to another. It is exactly the same in a forum/chat room. Stop being a prat and say something of interest (for once) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is exactly the same in a forum/chat room. Stop being a prat and say something of interest (for once) Read Posts more carefully. I was trying to bring back the thread to Speedway in Wales. I do understand the practice of debating on forums - elsewhere I moderate on four of them. I have already on this thread debated on Speedway in Wales - look back. I brought to note that there was a Wales v England test series (of sorts in 1929). Does that count in your estimation? Or shall I trend to debate under your theory of "moving from one subject to another" about that unlikely venue to the west of London.

Apologies, a case of mistaken identity, though it was the Ray one who dragged it up So is the apology to me or to Pugwash? Pugwash mentioned Slough before me. And mine, regarding the Slough Rangers cycle speedway team, is factual! And who knows, they may have hosted a Wales v England tournament! For your benefit Oldace.....Slough, Slough, Slough Slough!!!

No probs. the Slough thing does sometimes seem a bit dated, a bit like an Arthur Askey gag. EDIT. Just 'googled' him to make sure that he doesn't have any Slough connections.
