Guest JY2003 Posted May 22, 2004 Report Share Posted May 22, 2004 Good luck Floppy but why Louis?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomhaines Posted May 22, 2004 Report Share Posted May 22, 2004 Top British Riders in Elite League are: Norris Loram Nicholls Grieves (From quite a few less rides) Havelock Bird Hurry (Only a few rides) Richardson Louis Havelock and Bird are much more deserving than Louis. Norris is an obvious one as he is the top Brit at the moment lol. Havelocks average is over a point higher than Louis' while Danny Bird's is just under 1 point higher!

tomhaines Posted May 22, 2004 Report Share Posted May 22, 2004 Well in my opinion Mr Morris and Mr Westacott should be out Welsh wildcards But as you say, lets not go there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bandits4eva Posted May 22, 2004 Report Share Posted May 22, 2004 As i said in another thread I think having Louis in over Havvy is a complete waste of time . Louis never done much in his last few years of the GP and i cant see him changing it now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tomcat Posted May 25, 2004 Report Share Posted May 25, 2004 Oh dear oh dear.. I see that the Louis bashers are on here as well.. Lighten up will you. So you believe that Chris doesnt deserve his one last GP appearance after all he has done for British Speedway. No he may not have set the GP alight towards the end of his GP run, but then again he couldnt compete with the big boys financially due to lack of sponsorship. Didnt see him turning up at a GP in a huge motor home and a massive entourage.. No, a simple van and his pit crew plus maybe his father if he was able to make the trip. Get of his back and give him your support for one more GP effort and show the guy you actually appreciated his efforts, both at club level and at National level as well. I know I will be hollerin' for him as will a few hundred other appreciative Brit fans. I have also seen elsewhere on this forum that Chris doesnt deserve his chance because he didnt want to do the British Championship.. well being a loyal servant to his club, Chris withdrew from the Semi Final of the Championship of GB as some numbskull had only gone and scheduled it to clash with an Elite League match the same night and Chris, along with Leigh Lanham and Lord Kelvin.. decided that loyalty to their club was more important than individual glory. I say, well done to them for that choice and only wished that more riders, both British and Foreign showed the same loyalty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shazzybird Posted May 25, 2004 Report Share Posted May 25, 2004 Well Said Tomcat I'll be cheering Chris on at the GP and every other British rider yep even David Norris although would rather be cheering on Deano but you can't have everything in life.

I think people feel there are more deserving candidates. Coming back the way Chris has is quite amazing and I will also be cheering him, floppy, rico, mark and scotty all the way @ Cardiff.
