noggin 1,390 Posted May 30, 2019 Same old pot stirring on a Poole thread, I mean ffs the meeting is done, whatever rosco says has to be taken with a pinch of salt, he's well known for saying things that don't make sense, like counting your horses, it just shows what could have been a bit of cheeky fun has turned into a fact.

Rosco is Swindon through and through. He also wears his heart on his sleeve which leads him to say things that he simply can’t articulate properly and end up making no sense, or sounding hilarious. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Weird....Pretty sure it's pretty simple if you told someone not to turn up at the track or not. Calling him stupid is a rubbish excuse!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Calling him stupid is a rubbish excuse!! How do you know Rosco told Tobi ‘not to turn up’? You are going on Skidder’s ill judged comments repeating gossip and supposition as some sort of fact. Unless you categorically heard Rosco say those words, do not repeat someone else’s deluded comments as gospel. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Unless you categorically heard Rosco say those words, do not repeat someone else’s deluded comments as gospel. Wouldn't make any difference if I did! Skidder heard him and is called a liar. So why would it make any difference if i did? Swindon fans just shut it down completely without thinking it MIGHT be true. It is Rosco!! Maybe Rosco said to put it on here to stir as sometimes riders do but as Rosco hates this forum I doubt it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just out of interest, how did these many people by the pits believe it was to Swindon's advantage to have to use their non-scoring reserves in two rides instead of one of their heatleaders? 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

(NB. a reserve can have more than one IRR) Only those below can take a ride if IRR is used. So Adam Ellis could have a ride. (R/R was already being used for Lampart) This big cheat that these people by the pits are coming up with involved: Muslielak (Swindon's third heatleader) chucking a race - 0 points. Then the two reserves being used - pretty much guaranteeing 0 points. Then a ride for Ellis. Edited May 31, 2019 by Grachan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
