Swindon V Belle Vue 26/5/14

[nw42]

Everyone also appears to have missed the part where 7 time British Champion Scott Nicholls said that the track was dangerous to ride on and visibility was poor, then two heats later at the next check all of a sudden it was fantastic and we should finish the meeting.

 

As to the suggestion Swindon cheated I refer people back to the Coventry meeting last month when the exact same situation happened, team in front doesn't want to ride, team that's behind does and all the fans kick off later about it on the forum.

 

All in all Belle Vue got what they deserved out of the meeting which was nothing, Cook was abysmal and the rest were pretty average yet we are to believe that the weather has screwed them out of a point, na not buying it all just sour grapes

 

Maybe it's you who is missing the point, the track was producing good racing, whether Belle Vue got any points or not is irrelevant, the public were robbed of a fifth of the meeting because, as was clear to see, Swindon didn't want to continue.

 

We can all throw up past events to back up our arguments but just for a moment try taking this one for what it was, a decent meeting on a track producing good racing, look no further than Palm-Toft's tussle with Morris, can you honestly call that a dangerous track?

 

Sod the points, it should be about giving value for money.

[Red Robin]

To be clear Im not saying swindon cheated, and already state d there is no guarantee the aces would have earned a point.

But the question is was the correct process followed? Snd were the paying public unnecessarily deprived of 20% of the meeting they had paid to see?

From what I can see, most of the sour grapes is coming from the armchair keyboard moaners, who were certainly not part of the "Paying public"

[Fromafar]

Riders safety is paramount - after heat 10.

Correct there was no way there was not going to be 10 heats tonight riders safety or not.Nigel was telling us that all night.That was a decent track tonight if that was an individual meeting with prize money there would not even had been a track inspection.the riders would have poodles round and split the money *uck the fans would have been the Motto.Disgraceful decision.

[van wolfswinkel]

What sort of attendance ?.... Belle Vue didn't deserve a point, very poor on both visits to the Shabbey.

Back from the meeting and I thought there was some top racing giving the tough conditions especially from MPT in his Heat 11 ride. I see the trolls did not decide to meet me but oh well I am not shocked that is why they are called trolls. As a Robins I must admit that it was naughty to call the meeting off tbh I don't think the Aces would have got there point anyway but it was strange to call the meeting off when it was fine at Heat 10 but not at Heat 12.

 

Thank you The Doctor... for your nice comment I appreciate it after the abuse I have had today

 

theblueboy You have over stepped the mark in taking the mick out of blind people and you really should be ashamed of yourself not good at all

 

FINALLY THE KKS SAGA IS OVER FOR ME AS (thecoombdog, Steve0, Sidney, theblueboy, midlandred and weatherwatcher) WERE ALL NO SHOWS TONIGHT!

Looked for you tonight in your skirt with the stubble were you there? or have you just finished looking at the video plus?

[ABS]

If that meeting gets called off with the conditions as they were, we might as well ditch the dirt deflectors. These "magical devices" were slated as being the cure to rained-off meetings. They certainly help, it wasn't as though the riders were coming back in plastered with shale. So if were not going to run meetings when it's a tad wet, then get rid of dirt deflectors and reduce costs for riders.

 

Once again, the paying public have been short changed, but hey, who cares about them anyway?

[andypoll]

Feel sorry for Wright and Belle Vue in heat 2 as would usually have been awarded.

don't understand why this wasn't awarded ?

Haha ive got better things to do than look for an imaginery person!!! You are amusing I will give you that.

[stratton]

Still got your hating hat on fella. Like I said you were a NO SHOW!

 

Carry on trolling if you want but it is really sad tbh.

I was there as usual i would of bought you a pint oh well not to worry.

I am truly sorry if I have offended you KKS...(I am not really) .

 

Its true. I can confirm there was someone in a purple outfit, however, there were 4 of them and each of them had an umbrella and I couldn't see which one had brown shoes on...so which one were you red, blue, white or yellow?

[salty]

Getting back to the match, I would say it was Matej 2 Starting Marshal 0 tonight. Looked to me that the guy in the stripes just gave up trying to get Zagar to shift.

[nw42]

I hoped we could of had a chat and sorted this out it has got way out of hand today.

 

 

If you really think that why do you keep waffling on and bringing it up then?

 

Just asking...

It's just a slick track dry weather sport nowadays,all the International riders complaining how dangerous it is riding a speedway bike, they seem to forget where they earn there living.It is a dangerous sport and always has been.

[jimmy jimmy]

When exactly did this forum stop discussing speedway and start just moaning constantly and trolling each other. Pretty sad really. Thankfully most speedway attendees don't use this forum anymore.

[G the Bee]

From what I can see, most of the sour grapes is coming from the armchair keyboard moaners, who were certainly not part of the "Paying public"

 

If these 'armchair keyboard moaners' watched this meeting on a paid-for Sky subscription, they are very much part of the paying public.

 

I, for one, felt more than a little short changed tonight.

[jimmy jimmy]

Aces short of firepower away from home, Wednesday night is a big night in our season, desperately need an away win to keep up with the play off teams. Cookie looking a bit fragile away from home at the moment. Zagar blowing a bit hot and cold from race to race. Poole away apart, Scott has performed very consistently and seems to be enjoying his speedway.

[FrankThePug]

My biggest issue is after the moaning about the Coventry meeting Swindon fans are now defending the exact opposite. Have a little integrity and either agree this was wrong or the Bees meeting was correct.

I've got no problem with the Coventry meeting we lost it fair and square, if it weren't for the crash to Darryl we would have lost it in 15 heats and frankly you questioning my integrity is rather insulting and totally unfair

[The Doctor...]

Haha ive got better things to do than look for an imaginery person!!! You are amusing I will give you that.

 

As a neutral, can i ask why a good few of you who jumped on Gater1, it seems none of you had the stones to go and meet them or even look to meet them at the meeting?

 

I hate the phrases keyboard warriors/keyboard commandos etc, but it does seem like he offered to meet up, yet you all seemed a bit scared to back up your online abuse by seeing it through..

 

Pretty pathetic.

[LagutaRacingFan]

Have to agree with the Doctor and Gater.

 

The personal abuse does seem to be getting out of hand.

[speedwaysliders]

You have to feel sorry for Belle Vue,from heat 2 nothing went right.The riders were well into lap 3 before ref Turnbull,who had just finished watching Eastenders,up in the box realized she should be doing something as there was a lot of shouting going on outside which jogged her attension to act on something,about something which she never saw? After that she watched some more tv up to heat 6 when she thought she better cover herself by making the exact opposite decision thinking one decision must be correct!!!.After that she took the dog for a walk ,thinking the weather was a bit iffy,but she went out because that was the correct decision and then returned home
