Dekker Posted August 27, 2005 Report Share Posted August 27, 2005 Well done to TR he has come far from the unhappy man in the wheatsheaf in the late 80s having been told by swindon he wasnt good enough........ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCB Posted August 27, 2005 Report Share Posted August 27, 2005 Well Done TR. I feel it's a bit of a anti-climax as we all knew it was coming, it would have been so much better had he done it in the last GP with someone else having a real chance of sneaking it from him.

rabbit Posted August 27, 2005 Report Share Posted August 27, 2005 Yep congratulations to Tony. It's a priviledge to have been able to watch such a sporting legend over the years from the early Anthony Michael Hall lookalike days to the ultimate professional he is now. What odds on him making it 7 titles before he retires? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subedei Posted August 27, 2005 Report Share Posted August 27, 2005 Congratulations to the mighty TR on his sixth world title. And a special mention to Jason Crump, who showed much grace and dignity tonight as he watched his title go to TR. I doff my hat, well I would if I was wearing one, to both. Both a credit to this sport and both hopefully with plenty left to give. And congratulations also to Tomasz Gollob on setting his own record tonight. The first rider to win a single GP four years on the bounce. And another rider with hopefully many years still in the tank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shazzybird Posted August 27, 2005 Report Share Posted August 27, 2005 Many Congratulations to TRick on his 6th World Championship Title. You've just made my life so much easier with #2 son, after the tears we had last year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rusky Posted August 27, 2005 Report Share Posted August 27, 2005 (edited) Well done to TR he has come far from the unhappy man in the wheatsheaf in the late 80s having been told by swindon he wasnt good enough........ <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Dekker...it wasn't just Swindon !! TR did second halves at every BL (don't think it was called elite then) track of the time, over a 2-3 week period. The only ones who spotted his potential, were Ipswich !! He was told in no uncertain terms by many promoters of the time that he would never make it !! Congratulations go to Tony on his achivements since then, not least, his achievement of getting his 6th title tonight. I for one, wouldn't be surprised if he got a 7th Edited August 27, 2005 by rusky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BritPete Posted August 27, 2005 Report Share Posted August 27, 2005 Great stuff from TR, and this could so easily have been his 7th win! Of course, there is always next year! "Simply the Best!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tigerblues Posted August 27, 2005 Report Share Posted August 27, 2005 Well done Tony...a credit to the sport, inspiration to many. I think he has it in him to make it 7 before he retires, but that will be decided in the next few years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Shovlar Posted August 27, 2005 Report Share Posted August 27, 2005 A fantastic performance this year from the worlds greatest ever speedway rider. Can't see anyone touching him next year if he stays clear of injury to make it a record breaker rather than record equalling. Well done TRICK!

DartfordHammer Posted August 27, 2005 Report Share Posted August 27, 2005 The best rider of the modern era, without a doubt. Well done Tony. That month's practice at Arena sure helped you out didn't it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
norbold Posted August 28, 2005 Report Share Posted August 28, 2005 Congratulations, Tony. There is absolutley no doubt now that he has to figure in the perennial arguments about who was the greatest ever. He has dominated the mid 90s to mid 00s (so far!) in a way that only the true greats do - Fundin (mid 50s to mid 60s) and Mauger (late 60s to late 70s) for example. You've got to feel sorry for Jason though, coming up against someone like this. If there had been no Trick, then Crumpie would have started his domination by now. One first and four seconds! Keep going, Tony. Seven next year? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
