Some great memories in this weeks 'star' my second childhood here ( after trot tempest) lou sansom good to see him again and a nice touch about kenny fearon , thanks for another great read
The 5 pm start was to do away with using rip off price hotels , stayed at the mecure hotel in city centre a few yrs ago asked how much would a room cost that night was quoted £80 so asked for price of grand prix night she looked and said"oh there is an event on that night" price was £ 240 stopped me going!
Kenny 5 laps fearon remember the night a certain scotish referee came out the box in front of a full grandstand to have a go at him as he had left a marker on the track then banned him from rest of meeting, respect for kenny for not knocking him flat on his back.RIP an unsong " comets" hero.
I went once on a £19 deal which got u the ferry, train on the pier bus ride to stadium admission and i think a prog and all returns, it cost more in a taxi back on mainland to the warners hotel than the rest of the night out .
godfrey spouting off in the star again saying the " iow" were told what to expect for this season , pity he didnt remember that in 2018 when comets told everyone that they were going to ride friday nights, he soon changed that to suit him shame he dont want to help the "iow" now.
