Well no one likes to be hated or even disliked but we can't help how people feel about us, the damage was done years ago, nothing to do with Danny but he has had to carry the burden.

Yes it really plays on his mind - so much so that he hides away in the speedway office and rarely ventures out!! NOT!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe if he was straight with his peers and didn't go running to the Management Committee every 5 minutes and had earned his place on that Committee his peers wouldn't treat him as a backstabbing little wanabee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Middlo loves it apparently. He does his 'welcome to the most hated club' speech for every new rider. I mean they may as well go with it and use it to their advantage as it is never going to change! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You certainly seem to have a grudge against Danny, don't know what he has done wrong personally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A number of years as a Promoter, nominated and seconded and voted on. Then along comes Danny King in his first full season as a Promoter, on the Management Committee in the same year. 2021. Can't think of anyone who has ever done that before. The number and calibre may not be what it was but on a management committee in any sport iand Speedway in year one is completely unheard of. Ford not King of course Edited September 21, 2022 by HGould Correct predictive it's FORD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no such thing as the management committee - it was abolished a few years ago. Danny King said that as long as he was a promoter and a rider, then he wouldn’t have the time. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
