acef Posted June 21, 2019 Report Share Posted June 21, 2019 (edited) Its horses for courses and I'm sure Ricky would go well under a different set of circumstances. BV are really frustrating in the way they just hang onto poor performers. And then doubly they dont act at the right time. For instance, Ryan Douglas is hot right now and will fly round the NSS. I would imagine a door opened when Bellego became available, a rider who goes really well at BV. Rasmus Jensen was unemployed in the top league. The list goes on and on. We are to loyal to riders who are not delivering and then invariably if we do a make a change, its either to late or the wrong one.

Im not a fan of lemon, I think he’s a poor manager who’s living on borrowed time. He is slow to act and make changes and he makes some very basic mistakes but to be fair he’s not running the show. He’s the junior at BV as Smith calls all the shots as it’s all about money and his ego. Smith knows nothing about promoting speedway and actually nothing about running a business and thats why there’s a big problem at BV and why they are losing a massive amount of cash each season even though BV has the best track and stadium in the country! The way things are at BV and the sorry state of british speedway,  I really fear for the clubs future.

ouch Posted June 21, 2019 Report Share Posted June 21, 2019 Glad to see Ricky turn a corner so to speak, aside from the collective poor show at Swindon Ricky has averaged near 7 points a meeting in the last month. Dan and Steve are getting better by the day and with Kenneth and Max we have a great top two. I’m still optimistic that as we near October we’ll be hitting form. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The other no a mechanic who also worked on the track when it was being build. So yes I do know what’s going on.  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coldace Posted June 21, 2019 Report Share Posted June 21, 2019 Sounds to me like a broken record fueled by hate and envy. These sentiments are not what you hear for those who regularly go.  1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ouch Posted June 21, 2019 Report Share Posted June 21, 2019 It’s hilarious the stuff he makes up and in such an obvious manner. It’s all one note though so you may as well block the troll as you’ll only get more of the same. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To troll well you have to give biased opinion, which people may disagree with, but they can't say you're wrong, because it's a matter of opinion.  But this troll makes up stuff that is easily verifiable as untrue, and makes himself look a complete plank.   What's most hilarious is when he follows up his made up nonsense with the word "FACT" in capitals. But he's given me a great laugh today with the "I know this is true because I know someone who is a mate of a photographer!" On that basis I have a direct line to the Glaziers as I know someone whose nephew is going out with a girl who works behind one of the bars at Old Trafford.    1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SUPERACE Posted June 24, 2019 Report Share Posted June 24, 2019 Time for changes was weeks ago, it's not the losses away it's the fact apart from Wolves we haven't been close to even getting a point. No changes = no play offs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil The Ace Posted June 25, 2019 Report Share Posted June 25, 2019 Before yesterday we had 10.14 to use if we changed berge and wells. But we have kept with them and now as of last night if we was to change we only have 9.40 Or 14.10 if we replace lidsey to. Because he is somewhat getting away with very poor performances away.

Aces51 Posted June 25, 2019 Report Share Posted June 25, 2019 Lidsey is an obvious talent. We should remember it's his first season in the UK. He will gain from the experience and then we shall gain the benefit in the long term. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
