It seems as if a few threads have been taken over (more than is normally the case) by contributirs whose sole aim is to wind-up and throw personal abuse around. Its become ridiculous. Are you going to take some decisive action??

I used to like the forum, good clean banter and some very good posts and opinions .Isn't that what a forum should be about, not all this bad mouthing nonsense.

Not 1% chance

It wasn't racist. The tweet wasn't a good one and suggesting let them drown was ill thought out at best, basically in poor taste. However, racist it was not. It's this constant playing of the race card that caused Brexit and Trump.. you'd think some folk would learn.

This must be one of the few forums I use where mods are just non-existent, not even under the radar, just nowhere to be found. Considering the way the forum used to be 10 years ago it's crazy.

A random thought I had the other night was if I was a serious promoter with a business brain would I consider purchasing a track/franchise and by-pass the British league and instead enter a team in the Polish League? The BSPA wouldn't like it or probably do their best to block it but would the benefits be for the long term good of the sport in this country? Think about it. Sunday fixtures, Television exposure and having quality riders at every meeting providing the paying public value for money. There would be the logistical problem to deal with but what about striking up a commercial partnership with a low budget airline like Wizz. Probably a crap idea but I must admit if I was a speedway enthusiast with a business brain and a few grand to invest I would be looking at the option.

Nothing daft about it. Racism is a business. When business is becoming slow, new ways are found to ensure it's continued existence. Gullible folks like you are the perfect promotional vehicles and boy has it been successful. The tweet was in very poor taste. Simply state that and pretty much everyone would agree with you. Instead you try and convert it into something else and create a split.

Done that trip a few times - works nicely, very relaxing way to travel . Rico

The real Cameron Heeps should have the beating of most other reserves at Foxhall at least, and him and Allen will probably be our top improvers during the season. Even more so if Cameron can finally find some gating skills. A few hours with Donk could do some good.

Bydgoszcz would be the obvious candidate, the track hosted the SWC less than 5 years ago ( what a night it was). Stadium is in desperate need of investment & TLC. But a great track, with great history.

Well thats a flawed theory for NKI, on his 7.6ish average he is a far more attractive signing tham his 9.00 reassessed GP rider average would be after the 18/05.

Obviously not, we now know where the forum owner stands with such posts.

Past experience shows it only makes him worse. He actually thrives on people saying that because instead of directing their ire at him, his victims are the ones blamed... just as he planned. His most recent sick post has been removed I see. We can only hope he is once again on an enforced holiday from the forum.

There is no semantic argument. His tweet was not racist. In very poor taste yes. Racist no. I have not made any defence of the wording used in his tweet. His stance as regards immigration is a different issue.

Says who?

There are no limits to the depths he will sink to to get a response, disgraceful!!!

How low can one be?? An opportunity to just keep quiet but no, you have to stick the nail in further. With that reply, it's very clear what you're implying. You are a very sad individual.

Problem with that is " They " just follow you ,to whatever thread you choose . start slinging opersonal abuse and when they get some back try to be the victim .

I gave up last year, couldn't stand anymore of the vile hateful comments from Flange.Just why do the mods allow this lunacy to carry on, isn't there a way to block him from entering the Wolves thread completely.

Please don't knock this initiative folks it's not that long ago that Plymouth didn't have a Speedway Team and of course it's an even shorter period since it's continuation was threatened. Whatever it takes to secure the sport for Plymouth and it's lovely supporters has to be welcomed and embraced. Well done this is an opportunity to be taken and made the most of, which all the other clubs at death's door would welcome.

I havent read past quotes but if Fred has been been mocking the dissabled that is a step too far and totally unacceptable. I have a disabled daughter who has cerebral palsy. So Fred having a laugh and a joke is one thing but if you or anyone else want to behave in such a manner you should go and crawl back in the hole where you came from. From this moment onwards why cant people on here have a civilised and honest discussions about speedway , have the banter , yes , but keep personal insults to themselves.

Can’t see a number 1 agreeing to ride for the same points as a reserve

Can't comment on perks and extras but as far as I know for the last 3 seasons all riders 1-7 have all been on the same £20 per point.

Flippin eck.. its Christmas Day, this thread is like an argument with yourself.
