Very little to add to those facts. Fact is Swindon are lying. Fact is all riders didn't vote to ride (Hans) Fact is MPT wasn't informed about being allowed to do a practice lap. Fact is the meeting should never have started and all of this could have been avoided. Very little to add to those facts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Depends who you believe. 2 riders out 14 apparently moaned after the event. 12 out of 14 said it was okay. (If you take out the moaners). I believe the 12 and Swindon . Nothing else to add.

It’s hindsight which has been explained to you. Pls come along to the Abbey to watch your beloved Poole & perhaps you can call the Swindon promotion liars to their faces rather than hiding behind a keyboard. Bring all the facts with you. Oh, MPT also said that the track was fine on the track walk...I can also pick out what I want from social media. Edited April 13, 2018 by hyabb17 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

00000 1,279 Posted April 13, 2018 I think what happened at Swindon makes a case for all riders to have two laps (max?) as a "sighter" before racing starts– if they want. After all, in F1 and MotoGP they do a lap before re-forming on the grid for the actual start of the race. What's not to like? Of course, best wishes for a speedy recovery to those injured last night (and elsewhere, already this season). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wouldn't want to waste money on a meeting that will get called off before a race has been completed. Not picking out just pointing out a fib from the Swindon statement. 2 minutes ago, ray c said: said before not a poole supporter ? That's your opinion. But you are 100% wrong.

This discussion has been a bit polarised (I'm not complaining) but I am just trying to find a way forward. It might just give some "added value" to a meeting. Let's try and find some good out of a pretty bad situation for the injured riders and the sport as a whole. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Shirl 165 Posted April 14, 2018 Following the injury to Martin Vaculik on Thursday I’ve been looking for any official details of his injury I come on to the thread ( not very often these days due to the drivel that some spew out) to find out only to read 10 pages of Swindon bashing and the same sh**e over and over again,by the same offender Pretty sad really when your not even a Swindon supporter hey Facts are nobody forced them on to the track,accidents happen and that’s speedway just a shame that we’ve lost Martin Get well soon and look forward to the next time he’s on the bike Shirl 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
