The White Knight

Let's hope so moxey63 - I find this all very depressing..... Not at all what I expected.

About the only thing for which you cannot blame the Promoters.

The problem is that they seem to spend a lot of time and effort not pleasing - anyone..................... They don't seem too bothered that they, in some ways, are driving folk away from the Sport - not attracting them as they ought to be.

Well said Sir. :approve:

Including Jimmy Squibb.

If that is right - another bloody daft decision. Pathetic really.

They must be crackers!!! However - at the end of the day, it is their funeral.

My condolences to his Family and friends. R.I.P. + Dave.

We ought to be able to do that - now that we are getting out of the European Union.

My first Meeting was in 1964 - Sunderland 'Saints' v. Newcastle 'Diamonds'. I remember a defeat for the 'Saints' (32-44) - it didn't put me off though.

"Once upon a time"............................................... :rolleyes: You are right - but will it ever happen? :unsure:

Fair comment I suppose ls - I was just pondering....

I talked to Tony Mole regarding the return of Speedway to Sunderland. It did not happen - but that was not Tony Mole's fault. I found him always very courteous to talk to and very knowledgable about Speedway and business too. I admire him very much and wish him a very happy retirement. Speedway will miss him very much. Just a thought - people talk about an Independent overall head of Speedway in this Country - would Tony not be a very good candidate for this Post? Just thinking...........

Made me laugh anyway. :rofl:

The only thing that you can be certain of is that they will change the Rules - - - AGAIN!!! On the other hand - they might do something sensible and get rid of Double P{oints. :approve:

Too right!!!! They won't change it though....................

This will be a remarkable and impressive Resource. A real labour of love. I sincerely hope that you get all the information that you require Dave. I'm only sorry I can't help.

I certainly would Sidney. Wrong Thread to discuss that though.

I totally concur with all of the comments regarding the Updates. As many will know - I no longer attend Speedway Meetings, however, I am still interested and the Updates are invaluable to me. I would like to thank every single Updater, Texter and particularly Sue for maintaining a service that is second to none. Many, many thanks.

Yes. My wife used to love that.

Well said Trees - I couldn't agree more.

Thank you for Posting this FH. British Speedway will miss PK, and so will I. Very best wishes to Peter in whatever he decides to do in the future - he deserves it.

My late Wife's favourite Rider. Peter is a wonderful example to all aspiring Speedway Riders - I loved watching him. As people have already said a true Gentleman in the truest sense of the word. I would like to congratulate wolfhound on an excellent first Post on the Thread. It says everything there is to say about PK. I concur with every word.

Is Michael Max still riding?

My Wife died just over 10 years ago. Thank you for that. You have to be a certain type of person to Post something like that. I always thought you were a bit thick - now you have proved it. Why don't you just crawl back under your rock where you belong. Sod off!!! Mods: There will be no apology from me for this Post. I apologise to the rest of the Forum for my reaction to this - but - certainly NOT to phillipsr.
