The White Knight

Well done Ricky. For courage and determination you are the TOPS!!! Very best and sincere wishes for your future. I loved your riding and I hope your dream of a solo ride is fulfilled.

Would it be possible to Pin this please Mods?

Was Dave Collins British who moved to South Africa, or was he South African?

I saw this and was very surprised, in a nice way. I watch Grantchester religiously (if you'll pardon the pun) every week. Great Programme enhanced, for me anyway, by the Speedway pictures on the wall. Let's hope for more of the same.

I think you mean Edward Jancarz Sidney.

A first rate opening Post, on this very worthwhile Thread by tmc, with which I fully concur.

Done!! Thank you for Posting the Link Steve.

I would like to wish 'Robbo' the very best of everything in his recently announced retirement, he certainly deserves it.. A great Rider who always gave 100%.

You've never said truer words in your life.... That is probably why many people no longer can be bothered with the Forum. I know, have been in contact with, a number of folk who have packed in due to the unpleasantness on here by certain people. I, myself, do not Post as much as I used to - I still read it though.

Yes - I've been around Speedway since 1964 and I feel the same as Philip. We can only hope that he and I are wrong.

So very, very true ff.

I find the whole Sport very depressing at present HT. What has happened at Rye House has got me wondering who will be next? Sadly I find it quite feasible that a number of other Clubs could go the same way. I was stunned to hear Belle Vue mentioned as being possibly among the Tracks we need to be concerned about. Where will it all end - I wonder?

He is a disillusioned former Supporter, who is as entitled to his views and to air them, as you or I. At the end of the day - that is what the Forum is for HT. There are a lot less People Posting on here these days - I wonder why?

Very sad to hear this News. I too would like to think that Rye House could be resurrected next year - but - on a cautionary note, as a Sunderland Supporter who lost his Track in 1974 the resurrection may not happen. I seem to remember Posting somewhere on here that some Tracks who moved up from the old 'Premier' League to the then 'Elite' League would live to regret it - sadly - it seems I was right. My sympathies go to all those loyal Rye House Supporters - I know how they feel - CRAP!!! I still do in regard to Sunderland - and that was 44 years ago.......

I can think of someone who should be in the same boat as regards his Bullying and Trolling. I wonder who that could be? Just saying.............................
