Ian 24 Posted September 29, 2009 Do you actually understand anything about racing at all. Are you really as stupid as your posts suggest or are you on one long wind up, either way you only serve to make yourself look more and more stupid with each passing post. When I asked the question "are you really as stupid as your posts suggest"? I didnt expect you would answer in the affermative in your very next post. I had considered posting something about how much of a fool you really are but it is sufficient to merely highlight your last post and you have done it for me No I am afraid Derek is no more than a fool who understands little about racing. Is it really necessary to keep repeating the same insults? Is there something wrong with you? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
billybikespeedway 75 Posted September 29, 2009 I think this has gone far enough on here. I UNDERSTOOD when I joined this Forum that you could attack the Post but NOT the Poster. I like to read this Forum for enjoyment - not seeing people called names. Sometimes I agree with Parsloes1928 other times I don't - BUT - he has his views and he is ENTITLED to them - whether you like it or not. Let's get back to what we ALL want and that is enjoy ourselves discussing Speedway and having a bit of banter. I don't think calling someone a fool is appropriate. This post is spot on, I also like to read other peoples opinions and sometimes post my own.Abuse is not welcome Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sandman, as Paul Newman memorably remarked to Robert Redford in The Sting, "You're a real horse's ass!" It just seems a pity that the rancour which seems to have pervaded so many other parts of this forum has now found its way onto the "Years Gone By" section. There was a time when those of us who enjoy wallowing in nostalgia could do so without that sort of thing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rami 14 Posted September 29, 2009 Jonsson was without doubt a brilliant rider during that time, but Sam after his serious injuries was better than ever and in 92 and 93 he made the art of speedway look simple. I seem to recall that when Per actually won the title in 1990, he was only averaging 8+ here and I think Gundersen was the same when he won his first 2 titles (but some of that was down to tape exclusions to lower his average ) When Erik won his second title in 1985 he finished that season with an average of over 11.00 for cradley I agree about Sam in 92 and 93 he was superb and would probably have been world champion both years if a GP system had been in place ( but not if Jan O hadnt been ruled out by injury!!)

Think I'll stick to the Speedway History Forum from now on: http://speedwayhistory.proboards.com/index.cgi?action=recent I tried that one a while back Norman. I didn't think much of it; you get serious abuse if you suggest that George Hunter might actually have out-gated Peter Craven in that fateful race at Meadowbank.

Anyway, I don't remember anyone being personally abusive when the subject was discussed. There were disagreements but it didn't descend to the sort of rancour you get on this Forum.

frenchy 0 Posted September 30, 2009 Is this section not moderated ? From what I've seen some of these posts here would certainly have been blocked had they been made, for example, in the EL or General sections. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
star ghost 7 Posted September 30, 2009 I will agree with Norbold and Frenchy. It is time this continual swearing and carry on was outlawed. It does no-one any good and must make others wonder if the forum is worth while. Also someone must pay to keep things going. It is hardly the right way to thank whoever that is as well Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wotnoaj 0 Posted September 30, 2009 I didn't trawl through all the posts but I'm sure a fair few have already said the same as me, Leigh Adams. Predictable maybe but at least it's on topic! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
