I dont care about my ‘rep’ if someone doesn’t believe me, then fine, but there will always be a couple that bite, as proven by your post Barker, BWD, Jonas, Mikkel, Kus, Jordy Stewart, Pijper That is what I believe the team will be, what you have to work out is, do I really know the team or am I sending out ‘false news’ again The old bite one crops up again after you post sh*te, lol ok if that works for you I'm biting like a big bitey thing there feel better. Don't think anyone really cares what you are sending out tbh. Edited December 23, 2017 by Gazc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What’s it matter to you what I post about a redcar rider potentially joining Workington or Newcastle? Seems your making a big deal about something stupid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Butt out, before you become a pain in the arse, and get banned by a promotion. Redcar fans will sure remember you during the season. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Butt out, before you become a pain in the arse, and get banned by a promotion. Redcar fans will sure remember you during the season. Banned? What for? Technically not done anything against the rules, I’m just a fan that just so happens to be a mechanic aswell, I’m not contracted to anyone so I can say whatever I want just like every other fan can, what’s the difference between me saying something about a rider on this forum and everybody else? And how have I made the promoters job harder? Jonas had already signed, how was me saying something on here gonna disrupt that in any way? And as for ‘mechanics should do just that’ if I have to stick to being a mechanic why can’t fans ‘do just that’ and stick to being fans not sit on here talking about who their team should and should not sign, that’s a promoters/managers job to sort out, as I’ve said above, yes I am a mechanic but I am also a fan just like you and everyone else on here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Speedway4ever Posted December 23, 2017 Report Share Posted December 23, 2017 Banter is ok as BenR195 says, but one thing I do hate is from people who you hear at the track or in general is slagging off riders when they have probably never ridden a bike before. I haven't ridden one but to do what they do requires one big set of balls. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there ever was a young man with excellent advisors/management behind him young Bickley has that to the max in his toolbox.

ch958 Posted December 23, 2017 Report Share Posted December 23, 2017 it wasn't banter though - he claimed authority for a statement which he knew to be false. He could have caused problems - they may have appeared available to other promoters for example. If i was promoter or manager he'd be in trouble. Needs to keep it shut if he's in a trusted position. Well the management know he's not trustworthy now. Yes fans come on here and speculate - they do not claim authority and thats the difference 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well the management know he's not trustworthy now. Yes fans come on here and speculate - they do not claim authority and thats the difference Yeah coz I heard promoters and managers scout rider availability on the speedway forum, other promoters would of known he had signed for redcar, if they were seriously interested in jonas, they’d of contacted him directly where he would of told them he was at redcar, don’t think promoters would trust a username on a public forum, plus I know the redcar promoter, I was stood talking to him last night at redcar racenight and he didn’t say what I done was wrong, infact he had a little laugh about it, like it has been said by cheekycobra, Ben Barker posted on Facebook at the start of last season he didn’t have a speedway team but he had already signed for redcar at the time, is he also in the wrong? as other promoters would of seen that and thought he was free to approach, sounds like you are all bitter because you believed my red herring, no harm was done, it didn’t affect anything, move on with life 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
