Liontamer

The red ones with the chequered pattern, They were provided by a sponsor & he always hated them. I always regret selling them. Ray is now semi-retired, but still does a bit of HGV driving. Dosen't go to speedway nowadays though. 8)

I love it when you slip into Red Indian speak.

One of my best memories was sitting in the Blackbird Road changing rooms with the team for the first time, & getting to talk to him. Also I remember buying a set of leathers off him & him having to come round my house to borrow them back as he'd forgotten to pack his & was on his way to Kings Lynn. I can also remember the red face mask & scarf he used to wear, & the way he so often twitched at the starting gate before a vital last heat decider, causing one of the opposition riders to break the tapes. Happy happy days.

I wouldn't hold your breath mate. :x BTW, Ray Wilson was my first true sporting hero. I idolised him as a schoolboy. 8)

The Japanese made bloody good cars in them days didn't they.

I'm halfway there, I know where I can get the red wine from.....................

I'm still here. Personally I prefer big long ones, but these days it seems that little straight ones are the norm. I blame global warming. :x

OMG!!!! Cue LT! :roll: :!: I couldn't even begin to reply to this one lol

"Quick I need a drink, videos, girls, anything, oh my God, so many tracks, so little time, help me......................." :?

It's you, my mother was right to warn me about you. :x

Don't forget yer banjo if ya ever visit Syston In Leicestershire son (hoigh spit), dang my hide. This is a local shop for local people, there's nothing for you here.............!

Liontamer where are you? :? Sorry, I was busy making a delivery at the tradesman's entrance. 8)

Think you're getting mixed up with Brian Mckeown Surely you're both getting confused with Acorn Dobson, used to ride for Kings Oak........Acorn........Oak.........geddit?.................anything good on tele tonight? :x

If you ask me, Keith the midget deserves a clit round the ear'ole.

sorry Lt...thought i deleted it before anyone saw it. i thought it was a bit lame, until i saw you post it and now i know it was lame It might have been lame, but it made me laugh & I claim full credit for it, so clear off & make your own jokes up. 8)

Must admit, I haven't had them for a long time myself................(leave it Lt).

"Over the sea to Sky" (Did I imagine it, or did someone else come up with the idea first?) :?

So you're called salty & you live over the Irish Sea. Do you have a big white beard & dine on fish fingers by any chance? :?

I feel sick. :x

can i come round please? OK but bring your own salt.

True, I could go to Coventry every week, there again I could stay at home, rub myself all over with a cheese grater & roll in salt..difficult choice. 8)

As an ex Leicester & Long Eaton supporter the answers simple, I don't. I'll probably see only two or three meetings this year. :x

It's never stopped Coventry. (It's only a joke guys). Hope you weren't thinking of becoming an estate agent HG. ;-)

I spent a bit of time with Soldier Boy on my various travels & he was a real character. I can still remember him being chased round Hackney stadium by irate fans, & still he returned to the home straight to taunt them again before the end of the meeting. I believe he worked as a storeman in a military establishment somewhere, but he couldn't have spent much time in the store because he travelled all over the country. You always knew when he was in a stadium before you saw him because he used to wind the crowd up. It's a real pity there aren't more characters like him around, but there again there aren't many characters riding these days either. Can you imagine if Jack Millen were around today, he would be fined & banned constantly. Anyway, I'd love to chat more but the nurse has arrived to give me my medication & bed bath. :clown
