As you've admitted, you're the only one who has brought it up out of the 100s of people who use this forum. Shouldn't that tell you something?

But it isn't ... Look, anyone could of signed Vadim on that average. Your just miffed that Redcar didn't.. But if you insist....... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jaizer 2,864 Posted September 14, 2023 And now the crux of the argument comes out. Green eyed monster now realised his team are unlikely to get through the play offs. All I feel now is pity tbh. Dig dig dig 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As far as I am concerned every point he and his uncle take is stained with Ukrainian blood. Shame on the BSPL for sanctioning it. How those who probably denounce racism can be such racists themselves. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Something is either right or wrong, you cannot pick & choose when to be "offended" For example I hate racist, but I would never say racism in Football doesn't bother me, as I'm only interested in Speedway. I know you suggest Russians should be blocked on "principle" but as Russians are allowed to compete at Wimbledon do you honestly see Putin cancelling the war, because they're aren't allowed to ride in the Championship?

Will certainly get your answer then. Or Boo him when his name gets read out... Boooooooooooooooooooooooooo! Just like that.... And another just in case he doesn't hear you... Boooooooooooooooooooooooooo! (Again)... (But don't say the again bit)... In fact. No. Do say the again bit as that will certainly tell him how strongly you feel... And. If that doesn't make him realise he should pull out of the meeting, fly direct to the Kremlin, and lead a takeover of Russia and denounce Putin, then I don't really know what will...

Glasgowstu 18 Posted September 15, 2023 Id be raging if someone held me responsible for what the British government do. It's a lot of cobblers. The Russian government invaded Ukraine, not the Russian people, and certainly not vadim. His opinion on Putin is no more relevant than mine or yours. Anyone that thinks an accident of birth makes you responsible for the state's actions is an idiot. 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JamesHarris 390 Posted September 15, 2023 (edited) Sorry to go on again but the original posting has peed me off a little. We are a nation that pride ourselves on welcoming others but recently anything or anybody Russian is scum. Indeed we have seen in sport people refusing to shake hands with someone that is Russian. That is wrong. It's not just wrong it's racism. The sad thing is the same people who have jumped on the Ukraine bandwagon are the one's who preach the anti racism message but fail to see how racist they are themselves by suggesting that anyone who is Russian should be cancelled just because their nutjob of a leader invaded another country. Were all German's Nazis in the 1930's/40's? Do all Russians support Putin? Stop being such bloody racists you hypocrites!!

Gr8scot 589 Posted September 16, 2023 How about swinging the thread in a better direction…… Vadim has ruffled some feathers but is it because of his birthright or because he has caught everyone’s eyes and imagination as a brilliant signing by Glasgow. He certainly appears to be a true talent on a speedway bike Personally, I’d like to hope he feels welcome and enjoys riding in the Uk 10 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
