Glasgow being one of them. Full credit to Sam Masters and Scott Nicholls for doing any ht 15 this year even when the result (and even aggregate bonus point) was decided. Oxford Promotion obviously believe in letting the fans see the best riders at every opporchancity. Edited September 10, 2023 by cinderfella Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I mean, between tagging people and quoting posts, I’m basically a Quantum Physicist. You seem to have misunderstood my post. I'm not accusing of you being intelligent (obviously - I would never do that), I'm accusing you of being very familiar with the forum!

Narcissism was when I shouted “TWENTY POUNDS, GOING IN” and waved the note in the air before chucking it in Lewis Kerr’s Ben Fund collection bag on Friday night.

Narcissism means to have an excessive self image/self-importance. Anyway, I'm sure you could argue about all day about it even though you're wrong. Fact is, nobody believes you are new here (let alone the fact you've only just gone to your first meeting in years - as you like to tell everybody), so just do yourself a favour and drop the act. Nobody comes on to a forum for the first time and posts almost 100 times in just two weeks and argues with all the members who post regularly (amongst other things already mentioned). Nobody sane anyway. Edited September 10, 2023 by Bojangles 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There again at Berwick Oxford put out Masters and Nichols both unbeaten by an opponent but they didn’t give it maximum effort as the match was won and just cruised round at the back.we did see them though.!!
