scribbler 213 Posted August 25, 2015 This thread shows part of Darcy Ward's life as a speedway rider.and to delete it would be wrong. It would be eradicating his personality. He hasn't become a saint because of his injury - he has become a rider we are concerned about because he is injured. Even if we don't normally support him or his team we will support and care about him in this situation. To de-personalise this I imagine a thread about NP being deleted... NP would be saying 'Hey guys you've deleted all my best bits ...' 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NP would be saying 'Hey guys you've deleted all my best bits ...' I think we spend so much time discussing and arguing about the things he's done in his past that we forget the human side to it all. It's absolutely heartbreaking, the poor bloke must be in such turmoil his family and friends too. I've thought of nothing else since Sunday and I don't do it much these days, but praying for him too.. I can't imagine what he' going through 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BWitcher 12,453 Posted September 2, 2015 No need to hide this thread IMO, Ward the rider divides opinion, Ward the person now lies in a hospital bed with an uncertain future, the speedway family will put aside their opinions on Ward the rider and pray for the long term well being of Ward the person. Got that the wrong way round. Ward the rider has never divided opinion. Ward the person most certainly has. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Skidder1 7,632 Posted September 3, 2015 Anyone know when all the proceeds from the Zielona Gora 'DW' teeshirt sales are likely to find their way to the Ward family? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bound too, I'd expect there's plenty of Zielona Gora officals on here Or is this a post to arouse 'suspicion'.... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lets just say there appear to be some issues with some of the activities/fund raising in Poland!!! All official fund raising now has to have approval by either Mark Lemon and/or the Ward family. All the Torun stuff seems to have been done correctly and with the right approvals/agreements. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dave69 1,534 Posted September 10, 2015 (edited) Got that the wrong way round. Ward the rider has never divided opinion. Ward the person most certainly has. Agreed.Now hopefully Ward the human will bring both factions together and petty squabbling will stop. Edited September 10, 2015 by dave69 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
