Pirate Nick Posted April 1, 2015 Report Share Posted April 1, 2015 That's because anyone could say anything and expect it to be believed when it's just an opinion with no substance. Oh and in his instance it had nowt to do with my opinion, I just wanted something of substance which backed up what was posted. Why should anyone just accept what you say? If there's a particular reason why which you'd like to share then I'd be more than happy to do the same That's the point, I personally don't care whether anyone believes what I post, it just makes me laugh that people will accept a post as fact if it conforms to their opinion but ask for blood if it doesn't. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blood? Did I ask Skidder1 to cut his arm off? Nope. Just for something to back up what he posted. I don't think that's unreasonable fella. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think that's unreasonable fella. ....and I have. Of course there is often more to any story that may or may not become public?! Maybe if I was a sponsor and was considering sponsoring Vaclav, I was given the full story?! Symptom of the BSF. If your post doesn't fit in with their opinion they will ask for proof, links and a sworn affidavit and if you can't provide it you will be dismissed as a club sycophant Thanks for that idea Nick, I might get 'PS' put on my Poole sweatshirt - 'Poole Sycophant'? 'Pirate Skidder'? I'm sure there will be lots of other BSF suggestions that won't need reporting!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IronScorpion Posted April 2, 2015 Report Share Posted April 2, 2015 I read that someone asked about Josh G's Visa & how does he qualify. Just questioning wether this rule was applied or side-stepped 16.3.3 A Rider in a Team's declared 1 - 7 at the end of the previous Season and not included in that Team’s new Season’ s initial declaration may not be subsequently re-introduced into that Team without the express permission of the MC. Just a question as no-one else has mentioned it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agrotron Posted April 3, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 3, 2015 Watt has reached his level years ago and is declining, whereas Josh is still young and got a lot more to give and won't be drawing his pension just yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pirates Of Poole Posted April 25, 2015 Report Share Posted April 25, 2015 Why would we wait till the news averages are in skidder? Interesting to see Chris drops to 7.00 from 1st May! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevebrum Posted April 26, 2015 Report Share Posted April 26, 2015 Watt has reached his level years ago and is declining, whereas Josh is still young and got a lot more to give and won't be drawing his pension just yet. Very true. However the point that arya made is valid. Watt is still better than Josh at this point in his career so Poole are gaining nothing from using Josh as his replacement. Please don't tell the Poole fans I'm sticking up for the Pirates! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watt has been one of the worst visiting riders to Brandon over the last couple of years. He usually comes 3rd or distant last in most races. However Josh is always a threat.
