proud panther 1,501 Posted January 11, 2017 Perhaps Neil Watson is too busy composing another pointless poem to post anything regarding the tragic situation Coventry appear to be in. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nbaynes 69 Posted January 11, 2017 The more there are from Coventry itself, or from "out of town" then the less the contribution from the people of Rugby, which only reinforces the point. That technicality goes to the wind when your political opponent says, "VOTE FOR ME, I'll spend more on the Social Care, on Schools and on the Roads, instead of on Brandon Stadium". And in the end, to these councilors, political survival is paramount. Thanks for all your helpful input. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Little Thumper 528 Posted January 11, 2017 Perhaps Neil Watson is too busy composing another pointless poem to post anything regarding the tragic situation Coventry appear to be in. Probably, reaching for his hymn sheet even as we speak. Perhaps a few verses of All Things Bright and Beautiful would go down well. All together now..... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
robert72 845 Posted January 11, 2017 The way Coventry speedway are treating their fans is a disgrace And the riders holding on in the hope of a team place. I don't. As to who owns the stadium who knows as it's all very confusing ~ to me anyway. Doesn't David lease it from the council rather than actually own it? I think DH leases the land the stadium is on but he owns the stadium fittings. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

New era Panthers 2,055 Posted January 12, 2017 Silently the shades of evening Gather round my lowly door; Silently they bring before me Faces I shall see no more. O the lost, the unforgotten, Though the world be oft forgot! O the shrouded and the lonely, In our hearts they perish not! Living in the silent hours, Where our spirits only blend, They, unlinked with earthly trouble, We, still hoping for its end. How such holy memories cluster, Like the stars when storms are past, Pointing up to that fair heaven, We may hope to gain at last. Elementary dear Watson. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Robert Lee 128 Posted January 12, 2017 Perhaps Neil Watson is too busy composing another pointless poem to post anything regarding the tragic situation Coventry appear to be in. I think people may have missed the point of Mr Watson's post. Clever as he undoubtedly is, he didn't compose the verses but quoted those of a Victorian composer, Christopher Cox. Set to music, these became a popular funeral hymn........... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I didn't know that so thanks. In a roundabout way he's admitting Coventry's dead & buried? Not an ideal way to confirm it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mikebv 10,240 Posted January 12, 2017 Oh to be a fan of Speedway, Whose teams future is uncertain and stark, You get to feel like a mushroom, Sxxt on and left in the dark.... As you look at your stadium in tatters, The terracing now covered in brambles, You reflect for a moment the reason, And decide it's that Speedway's a shambles..... Let's hope for some good news to come soon, That the equipment will all be put back, And that Coventry take up their position, In the Premiership as well as on track... Oh to be a fan of Speedway, It brings excitement greater than any other, Which makes it even more frustrating then, When you often ask, "why do I bother"? 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
