Popular Post Star Lady Posted July 13, 2015 Popular Post Report Share Posted July 13, 2015 The coming of the messiah live on Sky is over and done with. Can we now get back to normal and acknowledge that there are two teams in every meeting and each team consists of 7 riders ( or 6 occasionally). 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chris4gillian Posted July 14, 2015 Report Share Posted July 14, 2015 (edited) New Post: I honestly like Darcy.....Darcy is one of my favourite riders....But I must admit tonight's constant mentions was a joke. You even manage to moan here too! Darcy Ward, arguably one of the best riders in the world has returned from suspension and made his UK home and TV debut, so of course SKY will big it up! What's the problem with that? If it was Messi or Hamilton or any other major star in their respective sport they would do exactly the same. And the same message goes for all the other posters on this thread... Edited July 14, 2015 by chris4gillian 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Star Lady Posted July 14, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 14, 2015 You even manage to moan here too! Darcy Ward, arguably one of the best riders in the world has returned from suspension and made his UK home and TV debut, so of course SKY will big it up! What's the problem with that? ... The problem is that the whole Sky team asked everyone their thoughts on Darcy Ward ad infinitum which not only showed total disrespect to the rider being interviewed and his achievement in his race but piled pressure on Ward himself. To be honest I was amazed one of them didn't get in the ambulance and ask Lewis Rose for his thoughts. Every rider who swings his leg over a speedway bike deserves respect. Last night Sky didn't show most of them any. Whatever my views on Ward and his misdemeanours, he has served his ban and as long as he now keeps his nose ,and everything else, clean I welcome him back and my comment is not in any way directed towards him. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pugwash Posted July 14, 2015 Report Share Posted July 14, 2015 What's the big deal? This will be nothing compared to the hype when Jerran Hart gets out. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure that I agree with that but I can see where you're coming from, however I thinks it's just more about his return as posted previously. Darcy was the best rider on show last night by quite a distance and bearing in mind the lay off and quality of other riders (Magic, Holder etc.) this was quite a return!

SteveLyric2 Posted July 14, 2015 Report Share Posted July 14, 2015 As I've said on the meeting thread, I thought the Sky approach was a bit over the top. However, its good to hear riders of both teams say what a great influence he is both on track and in the pits - a real team man, as Poole fans know only too well!

The Voice Of Reason Posted July 14, 2015 Report Share Posted July 14, 2015 What did people honestly expect? The entire Sky product is utterly puerile; with Tatum & Pearson being the ultimate automatons who don't possess, nor convey, a single comment or br@infart of their own. Ward does absolutely nothing for me. I believe he's done his time for his crime. However, I fail to get swept along in this tide of mass euphoria about how entertaining he is. He gates. He goes. People call that entertainment? Thank God I can remember the days of truly exciting speedway; when it was the riders' natural ability to overtake that got me so readily engaged. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grachan Posted July 14, 2015 Report Share Posted July 14, 2015 A discussion on Darcy Ward populated by people who are fed up with people discussing Darcy Ward. Great stuff. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grachan Posted July 14, 2015 Report Share Posted July 14, 2015 If you lot really want to avoid discussing Darcy Ward, may I recommend the Darcy Ward topic in the Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup section. He barely gets a mention in there! 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
