SpeedyOne 126 Posted March 29, 2019 Nicki took Pawlicki wide. Didn't leave him much room at all, and Pawlicki bailed. I'd agree with an exclusion for Pedersen as he ran him up just that bit too much. But nothing to comment on beyond an everyday run-of-the-mill exclusion. As for Ward, well I hate to see him the way he is now. I'd love to have him fit and well and back on a bike racing. I don't want to see any rider suffering the effects of serious injury. But as a person, he was an obnoxious pillock before his accident, and he's still an obnoxious pillock now. 13 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It was- probably because it was a " training match" the ref and clubs decided there wouldn`t be an exclusion. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cinderfella 865 Posted March 29, 2019 Why are we all surprised by his moronic statements? this is the guy who slagged off King's Lynn fans during last season's play-offs conveniently forgetting that they, like fans from every other speedway team, all generously donated to help him in his time of need after his accident. The guy obviously has to keep himself in the spotlight somehow so making crass statements is obviously his way of feeding his ego. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Grand Central 2,654 Posted March 29, 2019 I suppose it is the 'good nature' of decent human beings to be reluctant to 'lay into' the opinion of an ex rider who has suffered enormously at the hands of fate. And we cut him a lot of slack. in the last few weeks the Ben Fund meeting was a reminder of the cruel way in which this dangerous sport can take down the most decent and noble of the speedway fraternity. Guys like Garry, Wilkie, Joe et al. I suppose this Twitter rant, which advocates causing another human being deliberate harm during a race, does show that tragedy doesn't just strike the good guys. 10 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Star Lady 5,400 Posted March 29, 2019 A rider brilliantly blessed with riding talent but sadly deficient in human compassion and common sense. 9 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Darky’s behaviour on twitter is what it is, I actually thought I’ve already unfollowed him... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He confirmed he'd deliberately wipe out another rider.. then adding' He'd get up tho with laughing emoji's. He saved nothing. It keeps his sycophants happy though.

Happy to take the love and support from those who provided then kick them when it suits. He always was and still is an odious character. 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
geoff100 1,404 Posted March 29, 2019 More annoying the race would have lasted 60 secs or so but the gardening lasted 2! And yes i thought he took him out wide typical dane , take them out but fall off if they come underneath u ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chunky 6,016 Posted March 29, 2019 You know, I am anything but a Pedersen fan, but quite honestly, I was expecting a lot worse than that. I have seen MANY other riders make a similar move, running an opponent wide, and most of the time, the guy on the outside just ends up shutting off as he starts to run out of room. Nope, I really don't think that was anything to rant about... Steve Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The FIRST rider arrived at the tapes with 1 min 35 of the 2 minute warning remaining. The race started at exactly 0 seconds remaining. About as efficient as you can get.
