Gazc 7,098 Posted July 1, 2019 Now we are getting we would be struggling without a rider that rides for us. I was under the impression you sign riders that will improve no, the straws through Armadale must be huge to clutch on to. I am sure we will get the next instalment of there pain later , it is glorious to sit and watch the excuses and blame roll out. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cj69 333 Posted July 1, 2019 Unfortunately we have some glory boys who started 'following' us when we were winning and now if we don't win every meeting are calling for riders heads. It's quite funny watching them as they fall apart (usually on Facebook) . I see them in the pits all over the riders (selfies, clothes etc). Then after a meeting spouting off like the team just slapped their mothers. Sure we can all have a dig at riders who are underperforming but we have little to no idea what happens in the pits and behind the scenes. You win or lose then u move on with life. Wee bit banter, wee bit back and forth then on to the next match. Sucess is very rarely lengthy and tends to come in go. At Edin we have been spoilt no doubt about it. Well now it's someone else's turn, tigers may not have the trophys but they got the stababilty, exciting rides and fans back into speedway. Still reckon we should empty Lawson tho and ref was bias 9 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have supported a Junior (Non League) football Team for 50 years, had a purple patch during the 1980's crowds trebled and then fell away again when they stopped winning trophies. Transient fans are not fans. Edited July 1, 2019 by Red Tigerman Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
