Red Panda

Re read the post.................It was not aimed at anyone specific and no I don't believe everything I read in the press...............life in the speedway world would be a whole lot easier if people did not take press articles at face value all the time............... RP

Press articles often deviate from the truth as it does not matter who wrote it it will often be edited down.................so I never said he was a liar............just that I do not believe everything they write in the press................ RP

Well I am not one who has ever begged for a certain rider to leave at any time..............if a rider has a loss of form as Chris did this year I would not be saying he should go or be replaced like some fans on here...................if changes need to be made they will be but it will not be the baying fans that force them.......... And you believe everything you read in there???????????? I certainly don't................ RP

Bit like the rubbish you spout then.................but I do agree don't believe everything you read in the press including the fact that Chris Holder said he would ride for another team...................think you should not believe that either................ RP

Dak went back to Australia straight after the play offs if you read his twitter feed..................... I would have preferred Dak back at Poole but pleased he has got a place at Swindon................ RP No.............not at all.................none of us were expecting Dak back after what the local press wrote.................I think that you should not believe everything you read in the press..............they are the ones that now look stupid................ RP

Correct he is at Cradley........... RP

Funny didn't you say that when Middlo managed Team GB and not a Brit in sight................. Funny how Swindon can have (if Dak is confirmed but I have not seen that yet) no Brits in the main team and its fine but if Poole do it its wrong............. It also funny how some Swindon fans are happy to slate Poole the whole time but are happy to have Poole assets in their team.......... Double standards from some people................... RP

Technically the three riders that were mentioned are employed as they are racing in other leagues............ RP

As far as I am aware Mason Campton gets back in because he won the Queensland Championship at the weekend and the rules state that they have to finish in the top 4 of their state/national championships to get a visa as of right............... Where the 5.00 average for Jake Allen comes from I am not sure.............. RP

As someone who is in the later of the three groups you mention I do have to agree with you.........we just happened to get on the property ladder at the right time.................we are not on a high income and have no savings...............my 25 year old daughter and her boyfriend have little or no chance of doing so................she has a steady job and he is self employed and does not have much work at the moment............... Only one troll around here and that is you............and your constant snipe against everything and everyone related to Poole............I have already stated several times that I had not seen the article in question but you obviously did not read that..............I stand by what I believe in..............just remember when I state a fact which is 100% accurate next time not to bite my head off..................and tell me I am wrong............I do not like being accused of things that I have not said................... RP

That is as may be but speaking from the experience of sorting out my mother's finances when my father passed away I can assure you my mother and many other elderly people I know do not have that sort of money tucked away................. Its a popular misconception that the majority of pensioners are well off...........there are some that have loads tucked away.............there are a fair few living in poverty...................there are those who are stuck in the middle fearing that they will have to sell their homes to cover fees if they have to go into care.................and there are those who are plodding along and are managing but do not have the amount of disposable income that people think they have................... RP

The rules are that the team that he is an asset of take preference................if a rider does not ride for the team he is an asset of then the league of the club he is an asset of take precedence......................so for example.............Josh Grajczonek is a Poole asset................rides for Swindon and Somerset so Swindon take priority................ RP

That is good to know that at least one club is doing it............hopefully others will too..............the hard thing is these days (my two are now 25 and 15) is getting a job before you turn 18 as a lot of places (especially those like large supermarkets because of the alcohol laws) will not even consider you............I know my daughter was 17 before she got a job and not through lack of trying............. RP

To be honest I would not be so sure about the amount of disposable income continuing to rise for pensioners.............I know that my mother does not have the disposable income she had a year ago........it is substantially less.............and I know a lot of older people who are feeling the pinch due to non existent interest rates and other reasons............. On the other hand I agree to a point about the difference in costs between what we as adults pay against what pensioners pay to get in..........a couple of quid yes............ The other thing is that now that students are being forced to stay in education until they are 18 is there going to be a reduction for them instead of cutting off at 16.................should they and pensioners pay the same rate............ Just a thought............ RP

Simple - get a life and stop criticising other people................get it into your head that I had not seen the article in question until it was posted on here and I apologised for misreading the post...................I still firmly believe that even though that article was published that Holder would never ride for another UK team...............but that is personal opinion which I am entitled to believe it or not...............if you don't its not my problem..............you are the one with the problem with your constant criticising of anything to do with Poole.............not me.............not any other Poole fan.........you............ RP

No I thought pie and chips was more a Northern/Midland thing................ I actually had stir fry for dinner.................but you are right about the seagulls............... RP

Damn it now I wish I had had that for dinner.............but minus the ketchup............. RP

The problem with the forum these days is that certain people think it is their god given right to pick on others whether they are right or wrong...........where as I may have posted things in the past (in the case of the most recent issue I was totally unaware of any statement to that effect and did apologise for misreading the article) that may not entirely accurate I am not the only one who does it.................others do but hey lets take the p**s out of Red Panda............... That is clearly bullying and not acceptable under any circumstances............... I also have a right to an opinion............my opinion was that The Doctor was trying to imply that I was lying...............where as I have no problem with people knowing about my eyesight I do have a problem when people either think I am lying about it or make a joke about it...............again not acceptable.............. I used to really enjoy the banter on the forum but certain people have made that virtually impossible............yet nothing is done about it.......... I will continue to post as and when I see fit and if any of you have a problem with what I post then sorry its your problem not mine......... RP

You had no need to bring my disability into this because it is not relevant................ RP

Well in that case get off my case then..................... RP

Did not misread anything.................you put disability in inverted comma's...........when people do that it is implying that it is not true........... Like I said I have a life outside the forum unlike the keyboard bullies on here...............and no it does not contradict its self..............I have met a few people over the years who are bullying behind a keyboard yet as nice as pie when they speak face to face............... RP

Thank you................the one thing I do not do is play on my eye problems.................which clearly the Doctor does not believe to be true................. As for his comment about previous misreading or misquoting I would say 90% of the forum has probably done that at one time or another...............but then again there are certain people that continually pick on certain forum members for no reason other than they can get away with it because they are hiding behind a keyboard.................... I would like to see someone say some of what has been said about me on here come and say it to my face................but it will not happen because only cowards are keyboard bullies................nice as pie to a persons face but stab them in the back from behind a keyboard.............. RP

I have a life outside this forum you know unlike some on here who see fit to criticise anything and everything certain people say.................. I will apologise for misreading the article but nothing else as I have done nothing else wrong..............and if you don't like it its not my problem................ RP

Not accusing anyone of anything................there is a difference between what one person actually says and what another thinks may happen....................is that too difficult to understand............... I am not defending anyone..............just reading the article in question................if you don't like what I have to say about it its not my problem.............. RP Elsewhere does not specify in Britain though.................. RP

Think outside the box.....................when has Chris himself ever turned around and said he will ride for another club in the UK................what is in that article is what Matt Ford THINKS not what Chris himself has actually said..................every one knows that Chris has repeatedly said he will never ride for anyone else in the UK................what Chris has said and what Matt thinks are two different things...............its not rocket science............... And do you have to shout.................it is rude and downright aggressive when it is not necessary.............. RP
