  1. Why are people always whining and argumentative when they can't get a straight answer? Did George knowingly give up the date before the Peterborough v Edinburgh meeting was even confirmed (in which case that is deserving of thanks) or did he suddendly find out he would like to run v Edinburgh but we'd already got them on that Sunday, buggering up his plans? To create a problem at that point is not worthy of thanks even if there is one of those unwritten BSPA guidelines saying Newcastle could pull rank but for some reason didn't. I trust that you can understand that although it now matters not as the day is gone!
  2. Plus Poole Stadium is in the centre of town with not much else in competition with it, as well as speedway being well publised locally in the holiday destination. If our motorsport masterplan had come to fruition then we'd have been playing on a level playing field apart from having a football team but not a beach.
  3. Didn't Stanair say that he couldn't agree a deal though which shows willing and not desertion through lack of effort? Horton hasn't done any worse on sponsors than Rick and Julie? It could be said that he did better as we did negotiate a deal with TC Harrison to be main team sponsor which is something Readypower Panthers never had? However, I'd imagine that TCH are as happy now as Muscle Finesse were in that glorious 2008 season. Probably scared off for life likewise
  4. Is he looking for a change of employment then? Fed up with teeth?
  5. National Festival of Railway Modelling – October 2014 looks quite tasty & worth a visit? Or Slade (little s) in December?
  6. At least I've got a plan, all you've got is an afterthought to bolt the stable door after the horse had bolted, which is more in keeping with the BSPA tbh!
  7. No point in moving on if you can't grasp the basic concept that if you had made protestastions at the earliest opportunity then your Sunday wouldn't have been booked in the first place. You could have whined about it not being our race day, or even alternative race day as you have been. Also putting a spanner in the works of an arranged fixture has been inconsiderate to those fans who were quite happy with the arrangements until George woke up. So where are we then oh great one? All I know is that you lost but claimed some sort of victory but we ride as we were before on Sunday v Edinburgh.
  8. If of course George had been on the ball when Panthers said that they wanted more Sunday fixtures or when this fixture was announced then no fans would have been inconvenienced and Newcastle would have had their Sunday fixture. To claim Sunday rights and fan consideration due to incompetence just takes the biscuit!
  9. The joke is that Sky meetings are nothing like the real thing because everyone brings out the best china for those matches but reverts to the chipped cracked stuff as soon as the cameras leave.
  10. Reads like the script Tsunami has been reading from. Seems to be a paragraph missed off saying that they also complained to the BSPA in August when Panthers posted a news item saying "Panthers bosses are keen to stage further Sunday fixtures following the success of a recent victory over previously unbeaten table-toppers Edinburgh." and are disappointed that no action was taken at that point to avoid this unfortunate situation.
  11. I'll think about that later, must get some shut eye ready for work tomorrow. That's something we do down south to pay the bills morning edit - thought about but can't be Arsed to reply, need to focus on our Sunday fixture v Edinburgh
  12. I'd imagine that he paid big bucks to some but you seemed to suggest that was some sort of bonus? We won as much under Rick with his chequebook as we'll win this season without, so what's the relevance?
  13. We had cheque book speedway in 2006, possibly 2007 with Rick having the cheque book without the personnel from 2008-2013. So that's approx 7 years since 1970. Seems to indicate that we've hardly had chequebook speedway at all percentage wise? But much like your mate Tsumami, you're not big on detail either
  14. Not fussed really. Never wanted to be here in the first place and after winning the EL live on Sky a couple of times it's all a bit second best anyway isn't it?
  15. Victory is ours (in the senior track debate at least) so the weak wind up continues. Can't you and your Arse just retire gracefully
  16. Do I view it or leave it? Decisions, decisions! Now what would George do? edit - think I'll leave it
  17. Indeed I said that I might have it wrong which is why I asked for clarification oh mighty one. What exactly did good old George do to make us all stand back in amazement? You also clearly didn't realise that the football is Chelsea v Arsenal on Sky so it's unlikely I'll be at it, but then again, attention to detail isn't your strong point is it?
  18. Not sure what you're saying, you may need to clarify if I have it wrong? So because George put a spanner in the works of an already arranged fixture and then backed down he's suddenly some sort of messiah?
  19. Its me, as arthur sleep told you (different names, different places.) I'd rather be elsewhere most weeks but have usually made the effort, which is more than can be said for some, and this Sunday will be no different. In fact with the vibes for 2015 being rather negative I want to unbolt my seat and take it home as a souvenir of happier EL days.
  20. So will anyone else if they've got any brains, it might be the last opportunity they have?
  21. Good old George, what a hero, created and then solved a problem which wasn't there in the first place.
  22. I never get my knickers in a twist, it's usually everyone else, I'll keep going all day. I'm happy with the fooball and the Arc. Would be better for us all though if speedway didn't keep confirming it's guardians couldn't run a bath? We await what Edinburgh riders have been told?
