 The scb govern the people that they control not randoms that may or may not be working for the clubs. 

 

That's as maybe but I'm pretty sure the SCB or BSPA do have input into what announcers/presenters can or cannot do. It's going back a few years but I remember well Mike Bennett saying so from the centre green at Lynn and his presenting style adapted somewhat from there on in:P.  I'm pretty sure  he said that announcers/presenters could be banned for inciting crowds etc

WHO CARES!!!!!   If you're ASSAULTED you are.....    ASSAULTED!!!    Jeeez.

Re your point about the thread's gone mental, yeah it might help if folk didn't keep splitting hairs.  You make daft claims about the assault being "fake news" cos you wanna split hairs about how it was achieved.  Listen mate I couldn't care less.  If somebody is ASSAULTED they are ASSAULTED.  That's it.

Re your point that I need to look at my own post and poster Red Flag.  No I don't mate, I did (already) note the nuance of difference in how the assault had been achieved but had also (already) figured that... it DIDN'T MATTER, i.e. an assault is...  an assault, regardless.

I know it was Red Flag that mentioned about the assault, at least he made sense!!  You then march on blabbering on about it being 'fake news'.  The essence of it was it was an assault.  If you wanna split hairs that's your problem mate.  Christ you'd fight with your shadow!!  Is your brain fake!!

 

 

 

A think if people keep putting inaccurate information out, folk will split hairs. 

Do you think Cook ran a guy over then assaulted him, or looking at what's been shown on here, did the guy actually assault Cook by lunging towards him and try to push him off his bike ?

Nothing like that mate.  The trouble with these things is human beings take things out of content or misread or mishear and the old "send reinforcements we're going to advance" becomes "send three and fourpence we're going to a dance".

My original post only made a light hearted or conversational comment that I thought from memory that Dugard had walloped somebody.  Red Flag duly obliged that it was Andersson - that was the salient point for me, i.e. yes he had walloped somebody.  "End of" as far as I was concerned.  But of course somebody somewhere will grab a hold of one little thing and twist and regurgitate it to be the end of the world and all the rest of the crap that is spouted with that type of analysis to death treatment but which to be perfectly honest I simply didn't have a care about when I made lighthearted conversation.  I mean jeeeez!!!

Yeah some folk spend their life splitting hairs, I appreciate you aint one of them.  Life's too short mate!!

So the speculative thing about Cook that you've posed, I'm sure its a good point, but you will appreciate that all I was interested in mate was my original conversational piece of "does Dugard not have a bit of previous, did he not wallop somebody" - in essence yeah he did so I'm happy as Larry whoever he is.  :t:

A suppose the whole thing has went over top, but maybe that's a social media for you. Its upto individuals to take part or not, with whatever views they have. It gets tedious in the end :t:

What possible grounds for an appeal could there be? The riders concerned seem to me to have all got off lightly for their parts in a display of thuggishness which disgraced both of their clubs.

If there is to be an appeal, it should surely be against the fact that no action seems to have been taken against others who interfered and involved themselves in fanning the flames.

It was the people who were interviewed, not the announcers in this case.  But i get your point.

Can anybody remember what colour the sky was in the video ???

Did we not have a couple of pages about that one....  apparently its always blue even when its cloudy and something about light being scattered in all directions?

I guess the answer to your question then is blue, probably also matched the colour of some of the language.  :unsure:

I thought the sky was black, unless the sun was shining on it, which made it appear blue.

It's probably as good an answer as any. :drink:

What about socks.  Nobody's mentioned what colour socks those in the video were wearing.  Surely worth a couple o' pages. :blink:

Most of them probly had flip-flops on, hopefully without socks.

Unless it was Craig Cook, who probly only had socks on ;)

I used to think your posts here had some semblance of sanity but this saga has well and truly shown your true colours.  

I've got the 2 min video if you need it.  Or perhaps as a neutral who frankly hates both clubs, feel free to ask me as someone who was there and close. 

I hope Herne Bay is nice these day as you sound miserable as sin.
