NSSC News 28 Posted December 2, 2016 No intention to criticise anyone who has posted on the forum, but it would great if more of you could come along to some of our meetings. Your entrance fee goes directly towards helping under-16 British riders through our association with Young Lions Speedway. More and more youngsters are participating year on year and it is encouraging that given the appropriate support, that as a sport we stand a better chance of developing a nucleus of riders who can compete at world level in 5-10 years time. The more you know about the sport from all people who are connected (Riders, Team Managers, Promoters, Referees, TV presenters etc.) the more you appreciate the challenges that many face. All of the guests that we have spoken to over the years are real enthusiasts and are all rooting for the sport to pick itself up and move forward, although they may disagree about what is needed to get there. We know all about the ludicrous and over complicated rule book and the culture within the sport which promotes this ridiculously short-sighted season by season view of self-interest and rule manipulation. As the fans we have two ways to deal with this. We can trade insults with one another and criticise the people who run the sport (and yes a lot of this criticism is very valid) or as we see it at the NSSC, we can look at ways to try to help the future speedway riders to improve so that hopefully British Speedway is no longer the third rate sport that it is at present. So by coming along to our NSSC evenings you are making a contribution, you can learn a few things you didn't know before and voice your opinion. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

foamfence 2,917 Posted December 2, 2016 What does Peter Ljung's twitter post have to do with the Bees? Read it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mdmc82 2,878 Posted December 2, 2016 This Coventry side doesnt look as bad as it did at first sight. It doesn't look as bad now Swindon's team is complete. Depends on how the other teams look once completed Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mdmc82 2,878 Posted December 2, 2016 (edited) Read it.I have. Still nothing to do with Coventry. Every time somebody with English as a second language misspells a word, it doesn't mean they are joining Coventry. Think he's just made a spelling mistake if this is what you are talking about. It's nice to bee important ...but it's more important to bee nice 😉😉👊🏻 Edited December 2, 2016 by mdmc82 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Woz01 3,589 Posted December 2, 2016 (edited) Peter Ljung! Interesting post on Twitter. When he uses English he often makes spelling mistakes. The winks do make it look suspicious but very much doubt anything is in that. Edited December 2, 2016 by woz01 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brandon 134 Posted December 2, 2016 Still nothing from Mick the Prick I see. Naughty words, yet strangely Neil Watson liked it? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gemini 4,894 Posted December 2, 2016 (edited) Naughty words, yet strangely Neil Watson liked it? He will be for the chop then. The last person that liked a post Mick didn't agree with got the sack never to be seen again. Clue......Chris Simpson our D.J. and the rider who was in dispute with the promotion about payment for his kevlars I believe. Kenni Larson or Kenneth Hansen, I can never remember which one.

mikebv 10,269 Posted December 3, 2016 (edited) Do none of you lot have collapsible chairs at home you can take with you. Ones with cup holders to put the Thermos lid/cup in? Good call... Add a nice tartan blanket for your knees and plastic 'gola' bag for your corned beef and beetroot sandwiches (tinned CB obviously not that Fresh stuff) to hang off the back, and you are away.. Put say ten in a row and it could very quickly become Speedways equivalent of the 'Exec Box'... However, Maybe they could run a 'Buy a Cushion' campaign? Similar to the BV 'Buy a Brick' one? £50 and you get your own cushion with your name on it and arse cheeks moulded in for 'extra comfort'... Also similar to BV, £500 would get you a 'Cushion for Life' meaning you would be able to keep your cushion in the same place every season 'forever'.. Oh hang on... Maybe not...
