Poole speedway book of condolence

Still commented though, he’s a horrible troll.

What exactly is a “troll” in a forum sense, if you don’t mind me asking?

He may be one, but from what I’ve saw, he has a few people on toast because he makes a tongue-in-cheek post and the response is outrage.

I mean, let me put it into perspective; he was called-out multiple times during last night’s fixture and at one point, as Glasgow were on the brink of a league title victory, a fellow Tigers’ fan took the time to work out that Mr Shovlar hadn’t posted in the ‘Poole v Glasgow’ topic since page thirteen. Wow. The term “rent free” doesn’t even come close.

That’s merely about that member, though. The name calling is the issue. It’s childish. This place has opportunity for debate everywhere, but resorting to calling someone a name - then the inevitable onslaught of back-up likes - takes that away.

He’s been a menace of this forum for years. He can give it but can’t take it, remember him quitting the forum when Coventry beat them, he has also stormed out of meetings in a strop when Poole are losing. Seems to have an army of minions though.

He took it last night. He posted when he got home from the meeting and congratulated Glasgow, but he was still met with one or two bitter responses.

How do you know he stormed out of meetings?:lol: I’m not doubting you, but that’s a wild accusation from nowhere.:lol:

Poole fans were very friendly and a credit to their club through the entire night.

Gracious in defeat, and a good number stayed behind to applaud  Glasgow being presented the trophy despite the pouring rain.

And it was the same 2 years ago, unfortunately for us under different circumstances.

How many from this forum did you meet?

A tasteless thread, love them or hate them, Poole has been the most successful team in speedway and every team should aspire to be at their level, when we lost to Poole a couple of years ago, Glasgow fans congratulated them, there was no animosity, we have fought to get to their level and we achieved it this season. I would hope that some Poole fans would have congratulated the travelling support as there are some really nice Poole fans, lets face it all teams have 1 or 2 that go too far. Poole are not finished yet they still have the KO cup to fight for,and already have the BSN trophy. As for Glasgow, we have put a lot in to upgrading facilities and stadium, and it is not extra money for riders from management, they try to get sponsorship for riders, anyway I am going to enjoy this season and look forward to the fight next season.

Joint second most successful along with Wembley.  Most successful recently yes.
