What, BV were looking at signing Adams as well as Crump?! Wasnt John Perrin the BV promoter at the time? I very much doubt he would of stumped up for Crump and Adams in the same side !

I'm sure the dog track would have had something to do with it too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have thought that a smooth wide track where you can race hard for 4 laps would have also been part of his thinking. But yes totally agree with your sentiments re-some Poole fans. Didnt Poole get peeved off cos they said they'd work around his foreign commitments? He left cos Glasgow offered a big wad of cash , and cant blame either side. Glasgow have cash to offer and want an almost certain bargain averaged rider and Basso wants as much money as poss. No problem . But don’t come on here dressing it up as something else though . 1 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't Bailey have British parentage and therefore a 2.5% reduction? Edited December 24, 2021 by Skidder1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think anywhere has more restrictions than Scotland. Sturgeon is round the bend (I'm no fan of Boris or Drippy D for that matter) and i'm fully expecting this latest three week masterplan of hers to turn into another 6 month cock-up same as last year and nobody in Scotland will be able to get into the stadiums until the season is half over. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What has the world done to deserve such s**t leaders, in this country with Sturgeon and Johnson, USA's choice of Trump or Biden, the short Frenchman plus many others. Ultimately 'we' vote them in, but it's either not vote or a choice of useless candidates. I know it's almost a no win situation at the moment, but we all deserve better. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nicola Sturgeon has worked tirelessly for the past two years, keeping the nation's head above water in the face of vindictive and cynical actions by the lying and cheating Westminster posh,-boys.

Like I say not a fan of either, but Sturgeon is cynical as well, once the pandemic is over, she'll be banging on about independence again, as I say all a bad bunch. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
