You said that they said it never happened ...I read them and they doubt how bad it was and quite righty as North stayed in the uk ...Ford statement changes nothing and no one should feel that they were wrong or foolish . -

I had a good look and I still find one post when anyone said that the accident never took place as you said .It was as I remember people not understanding why North never went home rather than playing golf and riding speedway and also Wondering why Poole got a guest if the accident was not bad enough for North to catch the first plane home . Ford who can't be trusted making a statement does not prove anything or change anyone views of what happen . -

I read most of topic and can't remember anyone saying that ..can you me some quotes links etc ? what I remember is people saying that they thought it was not that bad because North choose to stay in the uk to play golf and ride in the play off final rather than go home hence why they question the fact why Poole got a guest ... -
Matt k has been banging the drum on this one for a long time .. and in the forrest of all the idea's people come up with that are unworkable and silly this is one of the better one's and would help both league's out .

Yea the pl is on a massive up ..going to have make the stadiums bigger to fit the crowds in .....one day you will wake up and understand it's not us v them but we are one sport and all in it together .

Why would you go to a farewell meeting that was not a farewell meeting ....If you went then Terry Russell made a mug out of you . are just go to the last match at the Abbey to say my farewell just like any supporter who has half a brain cell .
-
I agree on that
-
I agree with Dave Jones ..the farewell was a con and a poor one at that ....I never went as it was clear to me that we would be back the Abbey next season as it was to Tr .

I thought that had it been nicked already

Play Offs Should They Be Scrapped.?
orion replied to stratton's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
It would depend on the rules ...Mo Farrah etc do not always win there heats in major games knowing that they only need to finish top 6 sometimes to reach the next round or final ...before trying to win the final ..like any game or sport the object is to win under the set of rules that have been given . I watch the Tennis at to o2 the other week that novak come second in his is league/group but went on to win the title as the rules allowed him to go into the semi finals rules that were set out before hand . bit shocked that we got tickets as people having been walking away from sports that have play offs so was amazed for it to be a sell out when we were expecting empty seats -

Come on Alan ...Matt Ford has release a press statement saying that he staying at home to look after his dad ...it's nothing to with him not being able to get a work permit It amazing when people read press statements From Matt Ford and papers in general and take them as gospel . -
Play Offs Should They Be Scrapped.?
orion replied to stratton's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
You don't thou ...this argument has carried on before the likes of you has carried on saying that the crowds and money would be better without the plays offs but still after all this time come up with no no logic in your reasons . ...all the people who like the plays offs have long agreed that in a ideal world a league would a better decided if who were top of the league were the champions that never in been dispute . Sadly speedway not being to have clubs that can move up and divisions etc has to keep the season alive for as many clubs as possible so the crowds don't dip To sum it speedway would be fairer if we had a league where the top club were champions but at this present time can't afford that luxury ...to me it's just crystal clear to see I am not even sure what the argument is . -

You don't see the evindence..what age group would you say that the people who have moan about the play offs are on here .like sid and ian etc ? the bottom line without the over 55 this topic would have died a lot ago . unless you can show me otherwise -

orion replied to stratton's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
Sorry there no insult here ...my point is a good one in that all the people moaning are all of a certain age group ...all are over 55 and scared of change or dont like change and that is the real reason they don't like plays offs gp etc not the poor reasons they put forward ..it's not insult it's a valid point . It you took away over 55's then this topic would lasted about one page . -

Football does not need to have play offs for who win the league as teams can go up and down leagues thus meaning that nearly all matches something . Hence why Speedway has them using the top 4 and making that sure most matches mean something that is the whole point Not sure what it matters if the Nl vote was unanimous or not the bottom is that decided to go with it . What is unanimous is that every league uk as well Sweden and Poland used them . I think that speaks for itself on what people want . I doubt your find many moaning about them bar people over 55 years olds who tend to moan about most things and live in the past . -

Great post ..my problem has been with the press statements and giving out false promises that we knew could not be kept ...all we wanted to hear was that we are at the abbey intill we hear otherwise ..all the fans would have accepted that as they know the club has no control over when the stadium can be built . But of course as each promise has been broken the fans have quite rightly given them some stick -

Take a step back from your post ..and have a look how childish it is ...your such an embarrassment . Sorry you lost me ? the subject is about the play offs not about the history of Swindon Speedway or what your mates think I know about it ...as I ask before why would the crowds be bigger without the play offs ? -

Classic he makes a post about not calling people names ..and his next post is yet again more name calling ....I don't need to call you a liar as your above post shows it . You have been given evidence time and time again but sadly you can't digest it ...we have ask you very nicely why the crowds and money would be better without the play offs many times ...sadly you have not been able to answer a simple question
