I'm sure Ben Cook would have passed on any concerns to Dan Bewley if there were any.. You think that's strange? 😆 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not strange, and I didn't say that anyway. However, some non-riders (most Poole fans, it seems) don't recognise the danger, and just enjoy the 'entertainment'. It's not rocket science.

old bob at herne bay Posted October 22 Report Share Posted October 22 "although, as I’ve said before, hopefully he’s turned a corner now." Lets hope so - speedway is full of corners . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OK so if you don't accept Middlo's or Poole riders' views about what is dangerous then how about Dan Bewley's?

I've already answered that question. And a lot of people seem fixated on just the two crashes at Poole... what about all the other wrecked air fences from other meetings?

I’ve seen Jason Garrard crash in every meeting I’ve seen either live or Tv ,does that make him dangerous,of course not.Need to get over all this nonsense about Vinnie .IMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Shovlar Posted October 22 Report Share Posted October 22 This really is a vile thread. The lad is learning and is no doubt going to be a very good rider. The OP should be ashamed of himself for starting such an awful thread. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They should have reported the idiot, banter is good but that’s far too far. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If true which I doubt I would be disgusted an Oxford fan. When you consider which "journalist" wrote it would you expect anything less than half a story? There's no mention of the Foords making shooting gestures to the crowd etc as seen on tv. The same person copies and pastes most pieces he writes and passes off others work as his own by changing a few words. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a bit difference between entertaining, and existing just to entertain. You understand the difference, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
