Gavan Posted February 14, 2015 Report Share Posted February 14, 2015 WTF are you on about? I am both and I can't remember feeling the victim very often. My posts clearly show that I do not condone nor support a certain Mr Ward. However, If he's cleared to ride for us then he will receive my full support as does anyone wearing the skull and crossbones. That's called being a real fan and supporter of your chosen club. Absolutly spot on. Supporting your club is supporting your club through thick and thin, good times and bad, and trust me being an Ipswich fan ive seen it all. However it just seems that there are Poole fans that just cant do this and accept that their riders, or management can evr do any wrong. If you are so blinkered that you think Middlo is not wrong in his tweets then you arent really a speedway fan. If you believe in the fact that any technacality should see Ward free to ride then again your missing the big picture. Its unfortunate for the true Poole and speedway fans like yourself and foreverblue , that your club seems to have the few wallys that are spoiling it all for the rest. As i say if starman is getting ridiculed by his own fans on his own forum then surely he needs to wake up and realise what he is doing. As i said there is passion for your club and there is downright stupidity. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sommelier Posted February 14, 2015 Report Share Posted February 14, 2015 If you think the feeds on Wars's twitter are bad has anyone read Middlos. They are an even better laugh, see that Middo is still helping Darcy out by taking to a football match at Chelsea and a good night out was had by one and all. Can't see if he evn got a 4 year ban that his career would be ended he is still young enough to come back if he truely loves the sport, still not 100% sure that his heart is still in it. 4 year ban, Ward will be 23 in May, so if he got a 4 year ban, that would make him 27 when he comes back. The way sport moves on, do you honestly think he could come back competetive? You must be havin a laugh!!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As several have said before, it is very unlikely that they can give him a four year ban since his offence happened when the maximum ban length according to rules were 2 years.

Starman2006 Posted February 14, 2015 Report Share Posted February 14, 2015 More utter nonsense.

TheReturn Posted February 14, 2015 Report Share Posted February 14, 2015 Bit contradictory. Not at all, I think what Gavan is saying is that it is acceptable to say 'I am a Poole fan, I support Darcy but on this occasion he was a bit silly and sadly, he will need to be punished. I will support him on his return'. That would be an acceptable thing to say, showing support for your team and your rider. Sadly what we seem to see from many Poole fans is... 'I am a Poole fan, and Darcy is my hero. He did nothing wrong and the FIM are bastards for dragging this farcical hearing out'. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weatherwatcher Posted February 14, 2015 Report Share Posted February 14, 2015 You make a 27 year old sound like an old age pensioner. If he has as much natural talent, that every speedway fan knows he has then he should still have it in him to make it to the top again. At the oustside he will get a 2 year ban, which he deserves, he has time and again dragged bad news into the press with his actions and for the Poole management to say that he a golden shining wonder and that he has a few problems that we will help him with only makes them look bigger fools or tools. If Mr, G. Hancock can still be up there riding and still beating the worlds best only goes to prove that if you have the heart to go out there race and still win, you can do it no matter at what age. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sommelier Posted February 14, 2015 Report Share Posted February 14, 2015 Yep Hancock, amazing, but not been out of racing. You said if Ward had 4 year ban, i replied would be finished in this modern era! what cloud are you on!!!! You make a 27 year old sound like an old age pensioner.

Still good enough to beat Janowski What on earth are you on about!!! You are wittering on that if Ward were out of the sport for 4 years (which he won't be unless by choice) it would be impossible for him to return. Sam Ermolenko was out for longer, and far far older. Yet still was able to rock up and beat Janowski. Merely pointing out you're talking rubbish. Edited February 14, 2015 by BWitcher Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lioness Posted February 14, 2015 Report Share Posted February 14, 2015 Not really, I still fail to see why his 'career is on the line'. Hardly going to ban him for life are they! Think thats a whoooosh there ... I stupidly tried to use humour Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
