Then tell the truth... you know? Have someone tell it how it is from the club's side... even if the truth is brutal get it out there and quash all these rumours once and for all... All the shenanigans and machinations that rumble on in the background just damage the club... what's the truth? Set the record straight? Unless there is something to hide because it does work both ways... Regards THJ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No offence taken... your old enough to have been to the pictures when you had a B movie and went into a showing half way through then caught up on the second showing... only leaving until you reached the spot you come in at... In fact you will remember the old Chicken on the Pathe News and the Pearl and Dean adverts and like everyone else you would have sat through them to get your two jam jars worth.. Also if I have got to explain the jokes it's a bad show... it's bad enough sitting here paying 6 quid a pint to be getting my balls busted on this forum...

It's not likely to be mentioned on 'Look North' every night, or be front page of the Chronicle every day. I don't do Facebook or Twitter, but still manage to find out, (thru my limited technology capabilities), via the internet. Would you like a letter in the post or them to come round and knock on your door to tell you?,,, If you embrace the technology, you might find out quicker! As for starting on time, well usually it's not too bad and, for always taking 2+ hours to run very debatable, unless from accidents etc. I have been attending the speedway at Brough regularly for the last 12 seasons and find the last 2 have been run pretty punctually IMO. As THJ says someone from the club who actually tells the truth on what is happening. You've got to think as well our fan base probably like most clubs is a very ageing fan base who probably some don't have mobile phones or internet access and the only way of finding out what is happening with the club is to buy the speedway star you'd think the club would make every effort that whatever was being printed in the speedway star had been checked, checked and checked again. You've got the (supposed) number 1 saying one thing and then the club saying something else to then say what was in the speedway star didn't come from the club, well where did it come from then? It just smacks of being so amateurish. Edited June 11, 2022 by bloom89 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Got no idea where the article came from, so is that the club or the speedway star being amateurish? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As I stated earlier, the clubs articles are now written by someone at the Speedway Star, rather than someone from the club. I think this kind of thing has happened before (incorrect reporting). I don't think there is much communication between the club and the Star, which is quite unbelievable really. 1 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

robbieblackadder fan club 145 Posted June 11, 2022 We can argue till the cows came home about what was said but it doesn’t get away from the fact that the team is poor, one way to get fans back on side is go out and make some statement signings people will soon forget what was said in the star by & by whom, as already stated by others they are out there 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
