Glasgow V Somerset Sunday 23rd August.


Recommended Posts

I would like to say what a transformation the Facennas have carried out at Ashfield.

This was my first visit since the stadium had been transformed.

The facilities are top class from the ticket offices to the track shop and Tigers den, the Pits area, the refurbished grandstand,the hospitality boxes and the razzamataz with the start line girls and Roxy and Roary. The presentation offered on Sunday was great entertainment for all.

My only gripe was the long delays but because of the hot weather and crashes this was inevitable. Unfortunately for me as I live on the South coast I had to dash to Glasgow Airport to catch the 6.15pm flight back to Southampton.This meant i had to leave early and was only able to watch 8 heats.

Anyway we'll done to Glasgow Speedway and I hope to return next season.

Just one of those days when incidents , outwith anyone's control , happens . I had to leave before the end of the meeting myself . I hope that doesn't put you off visiting us again .

What exactly are you getting at accidents happen day in day out week in week out FFS at every track in the country but by your own admission you would rather highlight an incident involving Lawson and it suits your stupid wee agenda because he rides for Glasgow.

 

Now i also seem to remember a certain incident involving Nick Morris & Joe Tabaka and you all had your say on this and that and rightly so but you off all people come on here to highlight something because you want to stir the s*it but after witnessing incidents yesterday you don't need anyone to confide in anyone to know and another stupid comment from someone watching a computer screen.

 

 

Now as you have said you have not condoned heat 14 and Worrall's actions but at the same time you have not condemned them either because why? let me give you my theory you are a bitter little Monarch who would rather bring up something anti Glasgow and make something out that is not there rather than absorb the views off the many who saw what happened.

 

And then to finally round it off you try to be the smart a*se to deflect your own comments based on reading the updates your powers off esp must be miraculous give it a break FFS it is really pretty pathetic.

 

My you really like to spout out your unproven paranoid theories - bitter little Monarch, anti Glasgow etc :D

 

To remind you, my original post sought comment from those who had been commenting on the incidents in heats 3 & 14, regarding the Live Update report on ht7

 

namely:-

"More carnage . Lawson excluded for putting Charles Wright off on the back straight lap 1. Charles Wright being treated in the ambulance for what looks like a shoulder problem."

 

Rather than respond to the query, you launch into a diatribe regarding my motive in asking a perfectly innocent question.

 

You finally admit I never condoned Worrall's actions but then point I never condemned them either.

 

I'll answer that - as I was not present, I am not in the habit of condoning or condemning rider's actions based on partial third party reports.

 

Likewise you will note I have not condoned or condemned what happened in ht 7, merely enquiring whether those present agreed with the above Live Updates description.

 

Time to take a chill pill my wee Glasgow pal, and stop trying to bully anyone whose posts you dislike :neutral:

Tu tut tut Cyclone is this the best you can come back with and i am perfectly chilled my bitter little Monarch,

 

Now Bully is a pretty strong allegation Cyclone i am sorry if you feel bullied as that was not my intention but if you feel bullied perhaps you should report it

 

The question you raised regard's the Lawson exclusion has been answered but & i quote a comment you made in one off your post's

 

Did they confide in you after the events or are the above your subjective presumptions ?

 

Now we are well aware you came on here initially in an attempt to have a wee wind up poor attempt but attempt all the same but basing your sarcastic comment above i refer back to my Question about the Morris , Tabaka incident historic i know but relevant.

 

Did you witness that incident and if so was your view your opinion

 

Or did the riders confide in you afterwards

 

Can't have it both way's Cyclone and be sarcastic in one way but form your opinion in another incident which i am sure you did as all & sundry had there say on that.

 

I will give you the benefit here and suggest you are completely at the wind up which is perfectly fine no problem with that but you are twisting things more than what Chubby Checker did in his hay-day

 

You should get some tuition from Blobby in winding up at least he is not half bad at it

 

But I have no problem with you Cyclone my view on things and your view on the updates ;) .

Sorry forgot to post heat 14 report for you their team manager never bothered going to the pits phone to speak to the referee tells you all you need to know about Worralls intention if i was Paul Starke i would be giving him my repair bill

why did the team manager put worrall in heat 15 because the phone was not working. Any way what happened to the big mouth mechanic what did he think he was trying to do was it one of them tail between the leg jobs

Can never understand why people decide to swing punches at somebody wearing a crash helmet defeats the purpose and highly stupid :D .

That doesn't tell you anything about his intention. That just tells me that the correct decision was made to exclude Worrall and the team manager accepted that also.

Was me who was doing the texting and I offered my opinion on the heat 7 incident . The referee's opinion agreed with mine and he excluded Richard Lawson . In a meeting between two sides near the top of the table , at the tickly bit of the season , you're going to get committed racing and sometimes it gets a wee bit too committed , as was the case on a few occasions on Sunday . Likewise , depending on which side you support , certain incidents are going to cause outrage and some are going to be conveniently forgotten about . Every club's supporters do that , even your own moral highground dwellers . Nick Morris was painted the anti-Christ after the Tabaka crash , but numerous acts of naughtiness by Ryan Fisher in a Monarchs racebib were shrugged off . That's just human nature .

Can never understand why mechanics always feel they have to get involved when something like this happens . Being a rider's minder shouldn't be in the job description

Thanks for actually answering my original query in a rational way, instead of the paranoid retorts from Gazc, who was more concerned in referring to Worrall's actions and childish name calling. towards myself.

 

Re the Tabaka crash in 2013, for which it was announced that Morris was excluded for dangerous riding by the referee, if you revisit that topic, you will find that apart from one poster, all the other posters reckoned it was a misjudgement by Nick, rather than anything malicious.

 

Agree every side has it's blinkered supporters who embarrass the rest by their irrational, often aggressive utterances.

I don't think you embarrass yourself too much just now & again.

On the subject of mechanics getting involved, why was a rider who was not in the meeting on the track getting involved?

Probably felt left out and decided if they were making an ar*e of themselves he was too :D .
