Not only was he a great man he was also one of the best promoters I ever had the opportunity to ride for. Everything he said he would do for all of us he did and more! I truly think he changed to face of Speedway! I will sadly miss this man and also cherish the time I spent with him!! RIP Dan the Man!!! And thank you for believing in me!!!

greyhoundp Posted November 13, 2014 Report Share Posted November 13, 2014 Sad to read that Dan McCormick passed away yesterday, Dan was the man who brought success on track to Cradley Heathens after many years of being everyones whipping boys and also rans. I for one will forever be grateful for providing us with a Team that will always be in my memory, he also began the Cradley Heath dynasty of World Champions, Dan was never at a loss for words his imortal quote when speaking of Eric Gundersen "Wolves wined and dined him, but Cradley signed him" and the rest we know. My condolences to Dans family and may you now rest in peace after your final battle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps a Mod can link them to this thread? Edited November 13, 2014 by Guest done Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
