Regards THJ Gareth is 72 years old which doesn't tie in with the publication date and reported age of the offender in the article not withstanding that the allegations surrounding Speedway's GR go back much further Edit. A little more Googling produces an image of the offender in the article it's definitely not; http://pembrokeshire-herald.com/5161/spy-camera-pervert-court/ Edited January 30, 2019 by Byker Biker 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Are you saying BB that the link to the recent indecent stuff is not the 'speedway' Gareth Rogers, but the 'speedway' Gareth Rogers has been 'done' in the past for sexual impropers?

I hate getting involved in this ill-informed thread but as far as I know the previous conviction of Gareth was overturned and compensation paid. So it should not be brought up again and nor should the behaviour of a completely different person with the same name. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So everyone who is either a parent, kid, or a woman can be forewarned and protected against him! In light of comments regarding it being the wrong Gareth Rogers is why I never posted links etc! nor did I accuse him or anyone else! So if this is the case I go back to the original question, does anybody know what happened to Gareth Rogers? Edited January 30, 2019 by mike7164 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kitten2502 262 Posted January 30, 2019 Was there any particular reason why this "topic" was started in the Championship section of the forum anyway? Hopefully it wasn't another veiled (by association) anti Laurence Rogers dig. Just seems rather odd. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

To Answer your question the only reason I posted it here was as he was associated with clubs at second division level nothing more.

Ray Stadia 1,071 Posted January 30, 2019 1 hour ago, TotallyHonestJohn said: Honestly How true I was aware of the historical stuff and although I never knew the outcome of what happened to the original allegation levelled at Speedway Roberts I put 2 and 2 together and came up with 37; so my bad, it just goes to show you need to know all the facts before you jump in; I was astounded to read the Byker Biker post stating Speedway Gareth Roberts was 72, and as he correctly pointed out the Roberts in the press release will be 68/69 now so near but no cigar!!! I never thought Speedway Roberts was that old to be honest!!! Where have all those years gone? The mists of time have definitely dulled the facts and memories. Plus I wouldn't know either guy if I was standing next to them in the post office, however I still stand by the premise that anyone who would harm women; children or dumb animals for any type of sick pleasure should be castrated; no apologies on that score. So after getting the "totally wrong guy" I will bail out of this thread on that note; and I stand "Totally Corrected" Regards THJ Has Gareth changed his surname as well? 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Willowman 212 Posted January 30, 2019 Gareth Rogers (brother of Lawrence) was involved with the presenting at Somerset in the early days and I can remember his face. The picture from the link posted is definitely not the person this topic is about. THJ, with mike7164's permission, I would seriously consider asking the mods to delete this. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
