liam 376 Posted November 19, 2016 Are we definitely in the National League then? Only a few weeks down the line since the BSPA Meeting, Standartenführer Cook still hasnt told us. Maybe he is saving up the grand announcement until the dinner & dance tonight? He truly is an utter bastion of communication. I would imagine you will find out if we are going to be in the National league at the AGM. Do you know who else is in the league? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

E I Addio 15,843 Posted November 19, 2016 Your constant slating of VOR and anyone else who dares to post a negative comment is quite tiresome. So, it's OK then for VOR to describe those who disagree with him as (and I quote) " Happy Clappy Automatons " but nobody is allowed to challenge what he says ? Sorry, but if someone posts something on a discusdion forum they are entitled to have it challenged. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Voice Of Reason 2,124 Posted November 20, 2016 Pleased that Kim Nilsson won 'Rider of the season'. Wonder how many by? Only I must have registered my vote around 200 times over the past few weeks. Yep, that's right........Lakeside can't even arrange a polling vote properly! I wonder what pearls of wisdom Mr. Cook shared with the audience? No doubt Speedway Star will reveal all to the 'hoi polloi'. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yep, that's right........Lakeside can't even arrange a polling vote properly! I wonder what pearls of wisdom Mr. Cook shared with the audience? No doubt Speedway Star will reveal all to the 'hoi polloi'. Since you have previously said you don't belive the reasons given so far no reason why you should believe anything else that's said, so not much point in you bother about any more information if you are not going to believe anything, which according to you is, in your words "utter BS anyway". However, apart from Cooks interview with the update there were some interesting interviews with others:- Peter Thorogood (former promoter) was asked which rider he liked having in his team the best. Answer " I liked them all, we all got on very well in those days but if I had to pick one it would be Neil Middleditch, and if you asked Neil he would say his time at Arena was amongst his happiest times as a rider. Various riders and ex- riders were asked who was the best rider they rode with Answers:- Paul Hurry :- Mark Loram Colin White :- Sam Ermolenko Troy Pratt: Greg Hancock Lewis Bridger:- Nicki Pedersn Lewi Kerr:-Nils Kristian Iveson Rob Mear :- " The Late Great Lee Richardson." ( Robs words) Kelvin was asked who he considered to be the toughest opponents to beat .Answer :- "Hans Neilson , who left very little racing room and Nicki Pedersen."

marko 955 Posted November 20, 2016 Ah Chalky White and Troy, a blast from the past from happier times when I would drive to Arena even if it was pouring with rain even though I knew I would not likely see much if any racing, the days before those that run the sport started to turn me against it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
