Crump99 Posted July 1, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 1, 2007 Well, he's made it into the Times: TIMES ARTICLE <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Just tried to find it on the BBC site, couldn't see it so sent "The biggest motorsport event in the UK was the British Speedway GP at the Millennium Stadium. We had a British winner in front of 40,000+ fans. More worthy of the front page than Massa, Rossi etc IMO. I'm not sure if it's there but it's buried if it is? That's poor!"

bazaar3 Posted July 1, 2007 Report Share Posted July 1, 2007 Brilliant Bomber Brilliant and on home turf. You will be in this morning's papers for sure. Loramski would have been proud with that passing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tactical Sub Posted July 1, 2007 Report Share Posted July 1, 2007 Only on a speedway forum could a thread congratulating Bomber's fantastic win degenerate into the chance of having a dig at someone else. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Good post Norm, totally agree. In fact Scott was absolutely chuffed for Bomber and the only bitter person I can see is the original poster, whose fixation with Nicholls seems to verge on the psychopathic. If the main thing he can draw out of last night is another dig at Scott then you've got to wonder about his sanity. Maybe it's just a defence against the humiliation of our Bomber scoring more than all four of his Polish chums put together. Anyway, such rancour is merely a sideshow to the true hero, step forward Mr Harris, the most exciting rider in the GPs. Fully deserved, great win, great racing, great night. Have to say, I'm glad I didn't go now as I would never have made it to work today and been sacked, but I hope the celebrations and party were suitably long and hard into the night. GB is proud of you Chris, well done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevan Posted July 1, 2007 Report Share Posted July 1, 2007 Only the Times could refer to Bomber as a David Cameron lookalike, perhaps after the way he rode last night he should be made Prime Minister Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GB is proud of you Chris, well done. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Here here! There's no wonder there is so much gloom and doom surrounding speedway with "Supporter's" like that.Thankfully they are in the minority. Unfortunately they choose to use these forums because they think people want to know their pathetic opinions. WE DON'T! Scott deserved much better than he ended up with. Hope it's his turning point. Great stuff from Chris and Scott. Well done to Mr Howe also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Concrete Cowboy Posted July 1, 2007 Report Share Posted July 1, 2007 I suspect the congratulations from a Coventry team mate will be slightly bitter. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> You really have become a boring idiot with your unhealthy obsession with all things Nicholls - get some help mate, before it's too late.

tigerblues Posted July 1, 2007 Report Share Posted July 1, 2007 (edited) What a meeting. Chris "Bomber" Harris.. what a guy. True racer and a really likeable rider aswell, rode his heart out and a little interview in yesterday's Mirror was right where he said something like "I won't give up until I've passed that checkered flag". Well he certainly didn't. Deserved that 100%. Makes me proud to be British. To credit the other 2 riders on the podium aswell, I was well impressed with how Hancock and Crumpy congratulated Bomber after the race and on the podium, that was fantastic to watch. Also, don't know if there's a topic for these or not, and sorry to move this post away from Bomber, but well done to the other 2 British riders last night. They didn't disgrace themselves, and I haven't seen Nicholls ride like that for a long time. British GP winner, Chris Harris. I noticed the presenters say some of his moves were similar to Loram's a lot.. and I'll tell you what, I honestly reckon Bomber will be the next British man to do what Loram did back in 2000.

Arise Sir Chris Harris,you made the whole British Speedway public proud and the rest of the world sit up and say "The Brits are back". I would also like to add my congratulations to Scotty,his riding was better than his points suggest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
