What if it's a 2-pint glass?

To be fair, this Moxey troll does come across as rather odd to say the least.

i don't like "Love Island" and "Made in Essex" and whatever other halfwit TV rubbish exists, but I don't go on the internet reading all about them and then constantly spamming TV forums saying they're rubbish.  To do that, as this Moxey character does, would indeed be displaying "borderline insane" behaviour as Pinny says.

But have you spent 40 years watching love island and seen it deteriorate? Until you have, don't say today's show are worse than decades ago.

You can be classed as a very odd character though, part of the ex fan base .

An attention seeking oddball would be my best summed up line for you. 
 

Someone who forever posts on a speedway forum with a speedway rider profile pic , yet claims he is done with the sport. Good grief.

But it's not the same comparison. Moxey can still have a passion about speedway without going to the meetings. How many football fans say they are Man United fans, but never go and watch them live, but may still have an opinion about the club.

OK. I'll let you get back to your drink.

Moxey doesn't watch the sport at all.

He has repeatedly stated he won't watch it. Although, for some even more odd reason he has it on in the 'background'... but doesn't watch. That's even more weird.

I have the radio on in the kitchen but I'm not always listening to it.

In other words, he still watches it but wants attention and makes out that he doesn’t. Thus, an Odd Character. 

I am odd then. But, according to you, so is speedway's fanbase as a whole.

I spend much of my spare time keeping speedway's history going in the form of various yearbooks and the sport's records. Is that strange too? Because I don't go down to the track to watch something I don't believe in, it doesn't mean my passion for the sport's history isn't awake.

As I have studied the sport's history, I can say it is in its most perilous state in its 90 years being.

Good lord. 

Regarding your hobbie of speedways history, maybe it would be better if you formed your own Speedway History forum where you and similar people can discuss the history of the sport without having to discuss the modern day state of it. Then we wouldn’t have to put up with your attention seeking, pathetic comments like the speedway happens to be on the tv in the background etc.

What are these 'various yearbooks' you refer to? 

Genuinely interested.

I can introduce you to Gustix if you wish Pinny? :unsure:

Must admit, if I had a customer of 40 odd years who stopped shopping with me due to my operating model I would be quite interested in their opinion and feedback..

Especially if they have "loved" coming to my store for a long, long time..

Whether I could do anything (or would want to) to meet their requirements anymore is another matter, however any business failing to meet the needs of its customers needs to be told why its failing to at least review its operating model and see if it can make changes to meet expectations..

If it can afford to lose custom to deliver an overall better profit (as can be very much delivered), then that is up to them to follow that path accordingly..

No one would waste time coming on here fo discuss the sport if they didn't feel passionate about it, and it would be very boring if everyone thought the same..

Recently the Unofficial Aces FB page lost some contributors who had an alternative view to many on there, and sadly its content has suffered accordingly...

And there is always the ignore option...:)

A similar comparison would be the person never going to Manchester United games, saying they don't like football, but religiously calling the 5-Live phone-in every week to say they haven't been to the game, and think Manchester United are rubbish.

That would, to quote Pinny, be borderline insane.

The customer wasn't shopping. He was being given free products. When that free product was taken away he didn't want to know.

Your business would be better off without the freeloader.

As for 'no one would waste time'.

Clearly he does. Lots of it.

He even wastes energy and costs himself money by having speedway on 'in the background' but refuses to watch. He's even stated he wouldn't watch it on TV if he was paid. So tell me, how can he comment on the current product, the standard of racing etc if he DOES NOT WATCH. The answer is he cannot. 

His opinions are 100% absolutely worthless. The ramblings of insanity.

Remember, he is paying NOT TO WATCH at the moment, it doesn't get more insane than that.

And all the thousands of others had free passes taken away, eh, BWitcher.

I haven't the energy to keep defending myself. Even when I do, certain people ignore it and still spout untruths. I see a lot of Donald Trump in you, BWitcher, perhaps Boris Johnson.

Right, so I can be clear (as the politicians like to say), unless you attend the sport of speedway now or watch the sport of speedway on TV and even though you used to be a regular paying customer of speedway for many years, you have no right to make any comment on the way speedway is run today? No wonder this country is so messed up!
