Yes, I remember them well. There were some juicy battles between those two. I had a lot of time for Jack. Not so much Frank though, I'm trying to be charitable here. 😉 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Posted Monday at 11:00 PM Report Share Posted Monday at 11:00 PM Didn't he stab Steve Boxall at a Rye House P+P day? Must have been around 10 years ago now. Garrity was in the team at the same time as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No idea if there was previous bad blood between the pair sure someone might know…. Wilson effectively ended the career of Gary Corbett because of his temper, Lakeside fans will never forgive him.

I remember Wilson trying to shove Frankie Smart in the fence at Newport one year, missed and done himself in instead. Think he missed the PLRC the next day and a bit of the year after. Always preferred Stonehewer to Wilson, better rider as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wardey Posted 13 hours ago Report Share Posted 13 hours ago Pretty sure it was Ben Wilson who had a spat with Kenni Larsen after a race, revved his bike, hopped off it and fired his bike into Kenni. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope Ben Powell I think wasn’t it? He was from New Zealand so something Ben Wilson used to ride for Sheffield, Redcar etc definitely wasn’t him.

What did he do? I don’t really recognize Gary Corbett name so maybe before my time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
