The White Knight

Roy Rogers.

Don't bet on it. :sad:

I was with you until you mentioned THAT!!! :mad:

I wonder why no-one has picked up on this then?

Not me mrm. :nono:

According to a Post elsewhere - he has the Management's permission to do so.

I thought it showed how ridiculous all this gardening has become when Woofy got a shovel and actually shoveled some dirt on to his grid at the Start on Television recently. He should have been stopped - but - it was funny.

Thank you for the Link The Scotsman.

We'll see!!

Beaten - hardly mauled. We got a Point.

Thank you for that Steve. :) I liked Andrew too - but - for pure entertainment I, personally, prefer Roy. Sorry. We must agree to differ HT. At least Roy injects some enthusiasm in to the proceedings. In short - I enjoy his contributions very much.

Far too many cynics on here. orion - I agree I don't think anyone has actually said they HOPE the new Stadium goes belly up - BUT - reading some of the Posts on here that is definitely the very strong impression I have formed. I am obviously not alone in this. There are also those who also seem to delight in bringing any bad News on here - another very strong impression - yet again. I will rejoice when the Stadium opens. At least part of my rejoicing will be because of the egg on the faces of some on here.

Some unexpected good publicity for Speedway this morning on BBC News. Boris Johnson was making a Speech and he started by mentioning his trip home from Poland. Actually though he is a Eurosceptic he was giving examples of things that had been beneficial to us by being Members of the EU. Easier travel to Member States was one of his points in favour. He then went on to list other things that he considered less than advantageous. He was flying back from Bydgoszcz Poland at the weekend and he said that he had flown back with a lot of Motorcycle people supporting the Sport of Speedway. He said that they had been over there for the Speedway World Cup and that we finished last. He must have been chatting to them. Whilst not elaborating further I got the impression he had enjoyed the experience. Boris also mentioned that he planned to stand for Parliament at the next Election. Great News for me. I've just noticed that another Thread is running on this - I did check but I missed it.. If one of the Mods could merge my Post in to the original Thread I would appreciate it. My apologies for any inconvenience caused. Thanking you in anticipation. Ian.

I might hold you to that Ray. :)

Aaaahhhh - BUT - will they win the League again - having won it once already by finishing TOP over the Season if, indeed, they do so. Laughable really.

Yes it most certainly is.

Well I like Roy (I don't know his surname) at Newcastle. He is Entertaining, Funny and keeps us up to date. What more do we want? Oh!! I know - "The lean Green Racing Machine that is........................................................". Keep up the good work Roy. :approve:

That is an opinion - NOT a fact.

He allegedly bought himself out of trouble. Case dropped. Doesn't seem like innocent to me.

Well said Tsunami. There seem to be quite a lot like that. I am really surprised at the way some so called Speedway Supporters have reacted over this new Stadium. PR not great I agree BUT shouldn't we ALL in Speedway be celebrating the fact that the iconic Belle Vue are getting a new Stadium which will be used for the NATIONAL benefit as well. This could well help England to get back to something like International Competitors, unlike the 'also rans' we are at present. Come on the 'Aces'.

World Wide Entertainment (Speedway) - WWE!!! :sad: Problem is Baldyman - you are right. So this is how low Speedway has sunk. :sad: I never thought I'd see the day. When is the 'Royal Rumble' by the way? Just so I can give it a miss.

I'm off to get a cup of tea. Mustn't forget my zimmer frame. B) PS: Blanket already over legs.

No it wasn't that. Now I have forgotten what I was going to put. It must be my age. :unsure: Sorry. Ian.

SPORT or Business. I go to watch Sport - not Business.

Absolutely SPOT ON!!! Well put Nick.
