Daniel Smith 5,661 Posted December 20, 2016 A pointless thread but they just p!$$ me off and had to say so. I just don't get them, 2017 calendars with 2016 riders that ain't there next season or 2017 riders in opposition racesuit colours. Seeing them advertised on social media just irritates me. It's such a stupid thing but one of those very very small small things that some reason makes me steam. I just think "poor bar-stewards who get ripped off buying out of date tat before the first day of its required use." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Trees 2,814 Posted December 20, 2016 If fans want calendars of their team of the year before, no problem, yep pointless thread lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

John Leslie 3,213 Posted December 21, 2016 It's like my Ola Jordan Calendar.... All the photos were taken in 2016. Who wants to spend all of 2017 looking at pictures from the previous year like this 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Who wants to spend all of 2017 looking at pictures from the previous year like this That misses the point. Obviously you'd buy that calendar because you like Ola. As an example - if you're an Edinburgh fan and bought the 2017 calendar you might have to stare at Glasgow's Bewley for month Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Skidder1 7,636 Posted December 21, 2016 Same as my Kelly Brook calendar - and I'm not sharing that!! (waits for someone else to put up the pics!!) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
steve roberts 9,246 Posted December 21, 2016 There is a calender of Oxford Speedway highlighting the uncertainty of Cowley Stadium and generating support in saving the complex from redevelopment. A worthy cause! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Cheese 2,022 Posted December 21, 2016 Not really different to other sports, any football club calendar could have someone who's been sold by the time it comes to the month they're on. I guess that's the risk you take when buying one. Or if you have photos of your favourite riders for example it's easier to just create your own. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
John Leslie 3,213 Posted December 21, 2016 Well just in the interests of calendar research and for comparison purposes only... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pete cc 322 Posted December 21, 2016 Well just in the interests of calendar research and for comparison purposes only... I also find calendars a pain in the a**e. Last years riders on this years months. It will always be this way with a sport that runs from march till October.Understand the other photos except CLIFF?

John Leslie 3,213 Posted December 21, 2016 Understand the other photos except CLIFF? He's famous for his calendars too. And I needed something to reduce Tsunami's blood pressure after Ola, Kelly and Kylie. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hodgy 976 Posted December 21, 2016 I also find calendars a pain in the a**e. Last years riders on this years months. It will always be this way with a sport that runs from march till October.Understand the other photos except CLIFF? Either JL is a Cliff fan or he read the same article as me last week. Despite his age and recent difficulties, Cliff is still the best selling male calendar. Yes I was amazed too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
