waytogo28 Posted April 22, 2020 Report Share Posted April 22, 2020 (edited) I agree with some of that - The Clap for NHS & Carers may be a good idea for memebrs of the public but does not need orchestrated singing and dancing from Blue Light staff ( and now Carers ) In particular with some Carers moving from house to house withour any ( in some cases ) PPE and can so easily be a source of spreading infectiona. Staff in the NHS and Emergency Services are doing a splendid job - in dangerous and difficult circumstances. A Thank You for that but sutained "applause" and appreciation should be kept for when the virus is defeated ( if indeed it is - pre vaccine availability ). In a true emergency - as we have now - almost a war like setting - those in jobs where such max, sutained efforts are of course naturally demanded, have little choice but to do their best. My biggest concern is whay I consider to be a weak and woeful response to Vovid 19 by the recently elected Government and the Prime Minister. Almost anyone can govern the country when all is well but we need real leadership ( without political overtones ) in the current crisis. Where is it? These running things now ( who I voted for ) are proving not to be up to the task. Falling at the first hurdle in my opinion.

So yes, this #ClapForCareers is absolutely bull$#!+ imo & I'm / we are fookin angry Same here, sadly almost word for word, especialy hi-lited emboldened part, + a much younger family member hospitalised with full-on Covid-19 symptoms. You could also add staff wandering from department to department and and / or standing around in huddles gossiping - all without the sometimes 'fashion item regarded' PPE gear that some bleat on they so desperately need. There are of course many very caring, dedicated and hard-working NHS staff too. I'll stop in order to calm down and before I say something I may later regret, except s*** got real....

Bald Bloke Posted May 29, 2020 Report Share Posted May 29, 2020 (edited) I see Buster is going to build a junior track at the AFA. It can only be a good thing. A little positive in these crap times. http://www.speedwaygb.co.uk/news.php?extend.38078.1&utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=facebook Edited May 29, 2020 by Bald Bloke 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kelvinht Posted May 30, 2020 Report Share Posted May 30, 2020 Where is it going to be built? On the centre grey or in the car park behind the stadium...? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevehone Posted May 30, 2020 Report Share Posted May 30, 2020 might be too close to the big drainage system in place if it was on the centre, and also didn't think Buster owned the back carpark. i'm wondering about one of the fields opposite?

If i understood things correctly the NL is being phased out, but it will be interesting what the stand alone NL clubs such as Mildenhall, IOW, and Plymouth will do, however i stand to be corrected if my take on things is wrong.

Clive Ward Posted June 14, 2020 Report Share Posted June 14, 2020 Great to see Robert top score for Rybnik against Zielona Gora 14 points from 6 rides looks like he is back to his best, let’s hope so anyway 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robert has 2 full seasons on Bewley in Poland, one being at the top level. At the moment there is no comparison. Dont understand why people must do divide and conquer with British riders (and I’m not saying you do). I can’t remember the last time we had 3 British riders in the top flight of Poland. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're not very forgiving to British rider's if they don't hit the ground running in the Exstraliga. He'll be stuck in the 2nd - 3rd tier over there.

My response is to pretty much anyone that thinks Bewley is already the better prospect which I’m seeing a lot on social media even after his dismal showing on Friday. It’s more a reality check that some say he will be in the GPS before Robert. I couldn’t be any more happier we have riders in Poland which can only be a great thing for our future. Obviously Robert has more experience, he is older! but both still have a mass of growth in them so we should be applauding both. And I definitely fall into that category to be clear. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think Dan was dismal on Friday. We really have to look at the context. This was his first Polish top level meeting. He was quick enough. The kid has no balls and that needs to change but I thought he was okay. With the above adjustment in a new set of balls he will do ok. Some people expert an inexperienced kid to just rock up and bag a load of points. Not gonna happen. Robert is miles ahead in Poland, no doubt. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robert is miles ahead in Poland, no doubt. Huge learning curve for the lad but it will help if people stop presuming he will be GP standard within 2 years (as previously discussed from discussions on social media) and let him grow naturally with no added pressures. Lambert is miles ahead of Bewley all over. Not sure why anyone feels a need to compare them. There is no comparison right now. Or should be. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully that performance last night was an indication of how his season will go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
