Was there not also a change in the rules which gave Pawlicki a higher average?

Bless. Sadly, flu/pneumonia figures haven't fallen, in fact they've remained fluctuating around their normal levels.. So the precautions have been shown to have done nothing to stop the spread of viruses.

The bar that has been set means there can never be crowds in stadiums again. Until the government admits they were wrong.

Yes, very jealous of seeing crowds fall year on year with scandal after scandal, almost always involving Poole. As has been said, you reap what you sew.

Just go back and read the threads at the time. Ford was the biggest cancer in the sport, hundreds, if not thousands walked away from it in disgust at his actions season upon season.

That was one of the reasons yes.

Rule changes were agreed to that benefited certain clubs, ones that wouldn't normally have past. It was you scratch my back, I'll scratch yours. Lakeside were infamous for rolling over to Poole.

Now you're getting there. Ford bought the votes he needed by pandering to the likes of Lakeside and Eastbourne.. who basically dragged the sport down and destroyed it.

It's already been admitted the real death figure is lower. The excess deaths in the UK are now lower than they were for flu in 2017/18.

No prizes for guessing how many of those will end up actually being ill...

You are correct.. although the use of the word 'tolerated' I am unsure of. What would have to change dramatically is the government. It has nothing to do with the virus. That HAS changed dramatically.. it is now a minor, almost insignificant issue (in the grand scheme of things). Deaths from viruses are at their lowest level for five years. In other words there hasn't been a safer time to attend a sporting event in the last five years (likely longer but don't have the figures). By the time October rolls round, deaths will have increased, we're heading into winter. So essentially, if you can't have crowds now... there is no justification that you can EVER have crowds.

Yeah, all this indiscipline has caused the deaths to go down and down and down. Latest official figures, week ending 24th July: Death Certificate with Covid: 217 (down from 295 previous week) Death Certificate with flu/pneumona: 1173 (up from previous week).

Incorrect again. The deaths involving flu/pneuomonia have continued along their normal levels. There has been no dramatic drop (barely a drop at all) regardless of all the restrictions... whilst Covid deaths have plummeted. Had these restrictions been as effective as is claimed, flu/pneumonia deaths would have fallen as well. It is a virus that transmits in exactly the same way.. but we are told, not as easily! Week Ending July 17th, death certificates involving Covid were 295... flu/pneumonia was over 1100. There should be no worries and inhibitions because deaths are at their lowest point in the last five years.

Because of their 'poor behaviour'. Just listen to yourself! So utterly indoctrinated. Putting aside of course that I have at no stage suggested that guidelines should not be complied with.

The answer is people need to start voicing their objection to the ridiculous totalitarian restrictions being put in place. At a time when less people are dying in the UK than they have in the last five years.

It's clearly time football took action as black players are vastly over represented in terms of players in the Premier League.

You're suggesting the sport of speedway is racist? Examples?

I don't need to do anything, it's doing that job all by itself..

Ah that old line. So you were looking for 'bites' were you, i.e. being a troll? Glad you admit it.

Why is that? I'm more concerned with the levels of deaths falling.. which they have... rapidly. Funnily enough, with no mask. The figures also show that social distancing and other restrictions have done nothing to effect viruses either. As said, the actual figures show how gullible you are. Each to their own.

When the cap fits.

As expected you haven't got an answer. Just another posting to enflame with nothing to back it up.

'What a total troll'. You were asked, how has socialism saved 'millions of lives' in the last five months. I genuinely don't know. Convert me.

Socialism has saved millions of people from oblivion in the last five months? You'll have to explain that one.....

Saved millions? Millions of what?
