salty 2,200 Posted January 16, 2015 Not at all mate, clearly nobody on here reads our local paper.. Ok. So you're saying he says one thing in the local paper and another to Paul Burbidge in the Star. And its not as though the Echo isn't on line. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Christopher Bcmma Cook 33 Posted January 16, 2015 I think Poole just look after business and won't say anything to upset Ward, they will only support - as he would be expecting support and if its not received he will jump ship, there will be no loyalty. a year ago Dana White UFC president banned an athlete for use of canabis, fined him etc. then their prize asset to sells at lot of Pay Per View tested positive for coke, and Dana now says he needs help, needs rehab, they will stand by him.... Just the way it works Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well have a look then, but im saying the same as Skidder. It doesn't matter what Neil says, you lot on here will find a way to pick holes and twist it.

salty 2,200 Posted January 16, 2015 Well he has said - amongst other things - the following. "I don't know the readings on the machine and I don't know the severity of what he did" " If Darcy is banned, he has a very good chance to appeal it" "The number of appeals Darcy could make is huge" "He deserves to be punished" " I don't think they should punish the kid anymore" " Darcy knows he did wrong and has been punished" " They've ruined two years of his career" Very little of which is helpful imo Well have a look then, but im saying the same as Skidder. It doesn't matter what Neil says, you lot on here will find a way to pick holes and twist it. No need to pick holes or twist it. The quotes above are from just the last couple of weeks. One he says he doesn't know the severity of what he did, one he says he needs to be punished, and so on until we get to the ridiculous claim that "they've ruined 2 years of his career" I do agree with what you said yesterday that Middlo is hardly likely to go public and call Darcy a dosy c***, but given the stuff that he has actually come out with I think he would have been better advised to be "no comment" until the FIM give their verdict. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gavan 5,049 Posted January 16, 2015 Dont get involved with starman salty. You are up against the forum clown and cant win. According to Starman , the speedway star print lies and fabrication. Salty, how dare you criticise Middlo. If you want to know the real truth go buy the Poole echo. Now i must go and write to the speedway star and tell them not to write things Middlo says as its just not fair 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
semion 2,192 Posted January 16, 2015 Good reading the Star on all things Poole. Whole article of Middlo talking about some guy who can throw a few nails into a board. Must be loads happening down Wimborne Way. The amazing thing is Phil chooses to print such stuff. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Then if he opens his mouth he has to expect people to disagree (although he seems to do a good job of that all by himself).

Nothing wrong with mentioning a Poole fan - especially a new World Champion, Scott Mitchell, on mainstream TV that got the Pirates and speedway mentioned in commentary and the Pirates' logo on his left arm in direct camera view.. I'm sure if he had any other speedway club's emblem on his shirt, then that club would try to make the most of it!! 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm sure if he had any other speedway club's emblem on his shirt, then that club would try to make the most of it!! Brilliant isn't it. Poole highlight that one of their regular fans has been crowned World Champ, and was on major TV, and someone takes the piss. FFS. Next thing they'll be moaning about Promotions not promoting. 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
65Sarge 148 Posted January 17, 2015 (edited) In fairness it's great for Poole and promotes them and the sport, just a shame he only won the 'Premier League' World Championship rather than the real one where the standard is 10-20% higher?But I think Poole are right to seize every opportunity to promote themselves and speedway, I know I would if I were a Promoter!
