Barry Thomas - Different Class Bloke

Recommended Posts

Naturally, Barry Thomas will feature prominently on our forthcoming Memories of Hackney Speedway DVD. He is, after all, Mister Hackney.

 

But first we thought we'd just share this brief trailer with the world, just so that those who didn't know Thommo or see him race will have a clearer idea of what a totally decent guy he is.

 

Hackney fans who were there on the night he passed both Mauger & Autrey from the back to clinch the title for White City in 1977 will enjoy Barry's memories of it.

 

Also, his explanation of why he had so much time for the supporters will strike a chord with not only Hawks/Kestrels fans, but speedway followers worldwide.

 

There are a few modern day riders (footballers and sportsmen in general) who could learn a few things from listening to this man.

 

Modest, full of humility - a proper bloke.

 

Enjoy...
