Woz01 Posted November 25, 2017 Report Share Posted November 25, 2017 Anyone surprised it's Poole fans that are lacking in compassion and care for the sport? This could easily happen elsewhere and in particular Poole so I wouldn't really make light of the situation. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You've spent the last few pages looking for bites then guess who comes along to join the party. There is a Coventry 2018 on the NL section.

Nobody want to see the demise of Coventry speedway and I should imagine Poole fans certainly want them back in the top flight so we can, but for the odd hiccup, continue to smash you at Brandon and Poole. The clashes between the clubs are sadly missed. Edited November 26, 2017 by Steve Shovlar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The clashes between the clubs are sadly missed. Perhaps it is just the state things are with Coventry 'Bees' at the moment, that their Supporters don't like Poole Fans commenting on their demise. This, obviously, because of the intense rivalry between the two Clubs. I am not a Coventry Fan, but I know if I was, I would not be happy with some of your, and starman's contributions. I just don't think it is helpful. Sorry. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just don't think it is helpful. Sorry. I am not interested in what Starman has said. But I know I haven’t said anything on here controversial or to the detriment of Coventry. I do believe that if their fans boycott their club they are seriously at risk of it being gone forever. Do they wish that to happen? Hopefully the majority will get behind their team at Leicester on Sunday afternoons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Midland Red Posted November 27, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 27, 2017 (edited) I am guessing the reason why the Coventry cubs team wasnt viable, was because the speedway fans in the area spent their money on watching the first team. The same as Poole. But now without a first team, Coventry fans can support their only team, regardless of what division its in. They are riding just a few miles up the road in Leicester. Not more than 30 minutes drive. It takes longer than that to get from one end of Bournemouth to Poole stadium in the summer! And its on a Sunday afternoon, so no worry about late nights and kids to school. Sure everyone wants speedway at Brandon but surely you would want a team to support while the issues with Brandon Estates are being sorted out? Or would Coventry fans prefer to have no club whatsoever, like Oxford? Watching the stadium slowly fall apart as the owners wait and wait and wait for the council to finally back down so they can build houses? You are assuming that all Coventry supporters live within "a few miles" "not more than 30 minutes drive" from Leicester SpeedwayHow wrong you are - Coventry have always drawn on support from a wide area of Warwickshire and West Midlands - and further afield - which would leave them further away than your assumptions suggest You simplify matters to support your unwelcome arguments, whilst setting them out in a way which suggests clarity of thought - hold them up to scrutiny and they fall apart Edited November 27, 2017 by Midland Red 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woz01 Posted November 27, 2017 Report Share Posted November 27, 2017 30 minutes for me to Leicester Speedway but I'm only 2 miles from the M69. The opposite side of the City and you can add 15-20 mins to that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve, I don't know how you have the gall to come on here and say that you are not making light of the situation for Coventry Bees. Every comment is designed to wind up genuine speedway supporters - nothing constructive. If you really have nothing to add to the conversation then by not posting on here will demonstrate to me at least that you do really care a little bit for Coventry Speedway.

Every comment is designed to wind up genuine speedway supporters - nothing constructive. If you really have nothing to add to the conversation then by not posting on here will demonstrate to me at least that you do really care a little bit for Coventry Speedway. I have certainly not made light of the situation. Perhaps you should read through my posts again without the garbage replies from the imbeciles. Coventry have their new thread now in the NL section and I hope their fans on here support their new look team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reminds one of Wimbledon FC and MK Dons in a way, or Wasps RFC - what percentage of original match-going fans moved to the new homes? Get real, Mr Whateveryourrealnameis, and stop fishing and shovelling YOUR garbage on here 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
