I have zero adverts... When accessing some websites it may say something like "we notice you are using an adblocker, would you consider switching ads on as it helps support our site"... Just put decline or no... You will still access the website.. Hi Mike I am supposed to have an Ad Blocker. I think it's called Paddleblocker. I just wondered, can you have two Ad Blockers?

I really do appreciate it. 👍🙂 At 81 years old, I find this tech stuff so difficult. 🙂 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M.D Posted yesterday at 06:49 PM Report Share Posted yesterday at 06:49 PM Had a different profile before but this one joined in 2005. Lucky to work with a rider for 9 years, lost my club Eastbourne a few years ago now and despite being part of a consortium to bring the sport back to Sussex the Dugard's made it clear they wont let the sport run at Arlington again. Don't post that much anymore or go to many meetings but have sponsored a few riders over the years and now just sponsor Vinnie Foord. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveArena Posted yesterday at 07:40 PM Report Share Posted yesterday at 07:40 PM Used to view a lot but not post. Characters like Shazzy Bird and Bryn were great and sadly no longer with us. Shadders the Rye House fan was a good laugh. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thing is, everybody was knowledgeable, everybody wanted to learn, and everybody wanted to "discuss" things in a reasonable and friendly manner. There has been an increased number of younger members who have come on board, and love to bitch about us old'uns living in the past. Same as speedway in general, I suppose? Those of us who are still hanging on have become disenchanted by all the crap and insults posted on here. The Years Gone By section was an incredibly active section of the forum, and that's what kept a lot of us going. Now, nobody seems interested in that, which is heartbreaking. Not only is speedway history such a big part of the sport, but we can learn from the past, instead of rolling on relentlessly, repeating the same mistakes that are/were never going to work. British speedway is NOT dead. It still has a future, yet judging by the majority of comments you see on the BSF and Facebook groups, you'd think that it was dead and buried years ago. No, that was just the civility and respect that we had on this forum years ago... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
