Well we will have to disagree, I know what I heard and witnessed. I have been watching speedway since 1972 and I was very disappointed with the attitude shown on both occasions.
Sorry if I upset you by telling the truth, I was totally astonished that the seated stand did this, the first time this happened I just thought it was a one off, but when I went down a few weeks later and this happened again, that`s when I asked the man next to me who actually was encouraging his grandson to do the same.
Been twice to Poole whilst down there working. First time I saw Scott Nicholls (Leicester) fall and the Poole crowd cheered, second time I went Bomber (Rye House) fell and again the crowd cheered, a guy sat next to me and cheered and laughed so I asked him why they do that before they even know if the rider is injured, his answer was "it`s something we do and don`t care if the rider is injured", so I told him what I thought of him and he didn`t speak to me again 😂
That was when the 4-Team tournament was taking place, Ged Rathbone spoke to Godfrey and he gave permission for Jack to miss the 4-team tournament and ride in Poland instead. Then typical Godfrey, he turned on Rathbone and they charged him for Jack missing the meeting.
It really is time for the authorities to charge Dale Allitt and Buster Chapman for bringing the sport into disrepute. Everyone knows they are looking at getting rid of Paco Castagna so are deliberately postponing meetings.
You have to remember if Allitt & Chapman can find a way to cheat they will, these 2 have been bringing the sport into disrepute for a long time and still they get away with it.
I believe it was something to do with the previous manager enquired but because it was within 30 miles of KL there is a rule saying a new track cannot open within that distance.
