IainB Posted May 4, 2021 Report Share Posted May 4, 2021 A sad loss to Speedway, I always found him well worth listening to when he came on the mic whenever Eastbourne or Arena were in town and he always told it as he saw it even if he didn't always get it right (mano a mano). Always had the best interests of his clubs at heart and probably a shame he never took the top job 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
E I Addio Posted May 4, 2021 Report Share Posted May 4, 2021 Like others I am both saddened and shocked. Together with Stuart Douglas they brought Lakeside back from the brink of closure for 12 years. Not everybody’s cup of tea and his outspokenness upset some but he undoubtedly had the sport at heart and I will always remember my years at Lakeside with great affection. Behind the scenes he was very much a riders man, and as team manager he had great rapport with them. Away from meetings, at club social functions he was very funny with a very dry wit. A great loss. Condolences to his family. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
