But this person is beyond boring, and just childlike.

Ok, I’ll stop now, merry Christmas

Yet you were someone who demanded a meet up with other Glasgow fans because you were unhappy about what they said on this forum. How times change.

Wow. Why let the truth get in the way of a good story, eh?

I won’t call you a name like a child, but what I will say is you’re a complete liar.

Let’s revisit history, purely because you’ve dragged it up.

Come and see me on Tuesday ya clown I will gladly have a conversation with you.

Im guessing you can’t decipher the difference between having someone on ignore and ignoring someone.

I had a difference of opinion (natural on a fans’ forum) with another poster and the above was Gaz’s input after involving himself.

To which I replied…

“Ya clown”? Okay, I’ll send you a private message right now, so we can organise a catch-up on Tuesday night.

I then followed-up to clarify the purpose of the meeting, so as to prevent liars like you trying to recreate history.

Just to be clear; there will be no fighting. I’d lose my job.

I grew-up and work in an environment where you’re held accountable for your words and actions. Disagree with me, yes, but call me an “idiot” and a “clown”? No, not on. Let’s discuss it.

@ragdoll64 has nothing to do with it.

I’ve told @Gazc where I park and what time I arrive, so I’m looking forward to understating why a grown man - who ironically, provided the forum with regular reminders that he was ignoring me - has decided to attack me on a forum for no reason whatsoever.

@Gazc and I exchanged private messages that night. We agreed to meet at the first bend smoking zone before the meeting (I believe it was Oxford in the play-off semi-final), but he didn’t turn up.

I then sent a private message suggesting if you’re incapable of expressing your opinion without relating to abuse or insults, then you should be brave enough to do so to that person’s face; not just from behind a keyboard/mobile screen.

[TheWellBehavedWorrall]

Follow-up post to reiterate that I don’t even know who you are, yet you’ve tried to recreate two years old history to portray me as a bad person in direct response to my attempts to stop abuse and insults on the forum.

What a horrible thing to do. Why, @Monarchs2468?

How do you even respond to this level of stupidity?😂

Someone else randomly resurrects a two year-old discussion, but I’ve to give it a rest?

Don’t quote me again unless you’re willing to make sense.

Agree, the Poole mafia gang up, call names etc but cry when it doesn’t work.

It’s bizarre.

Imagine your neighbour knocking your door and saying ”two years ago, your tree blocked the sun coming into my garden” and when you answer him, your other neighbour tells you ”give it a rest”.😂

That’s exactly what @Fromafar has just done.

Can someone please make it make sense?

I think @Fromafar was making a general comment about the state of this thread over the past 5/6 pages. Not a specific attack on yourself. It really would be nice to move on and focus on speedway, but it requires somebody to just let it go (please, anybody). Let's hope tonight's signing announcement does just that.

Well said. Couldn't agree more.

So tonight, it's going to be either Zach Cook or Cooper Rushen right? Any other contenders?

Wholeheartedly agree.

Let’s stop the abuse, insults and name-calling and get this topic back on track.

[gjcone44]

yes lets get back to slagging off the track 😁

Realistically, nope.

Major surprise if it wasn't them. But for the sake of debate...if it's not Cook, there are not many around on that average, meaning that Pirates either go a couple of points under the limit with Rushen or sign a 5ish pointer and a 4ish pointer instead.

If they have Cook but not Rushen then maybe Daryl Ritchings gets another shot at 7? He did better than expected last year.

Not sure if Ritchings average fits, will become a lot clearer tomorrow when Oxford announce there final 2 riders 

[TheWellBehavedWorrall]

Right, let’s get away from the nonsense.

Serious question. Which will have more passing in 2026; Wimborne Road or the queue at Poole Post Office?

Disclaimer: This was not a serious question.

All the best for 2026 Pirates. Looking forward to another competitive season.

Keep hearing Ben Barker not back at Plymouth, i wonder if he is a contender

Ummm, no. Lawson said he would leave Poole if Barker was signed. 

Steve Worrall maybe?

Just to Clarify i did indeed turn up on the evening in question at the first bend, but as you say it was Two years ago now so no point in revisiting this.
