Dougie Harris Rip

Recommended Posts

Yes, Doug was a smashing fella, who was popular with officials and riders alike. Loved his ciggies, loved his speedway and loved his Smallmead. RIP Doug.

R.I.P.Dougie I got to work with him for 1 year when I was employed as assistant trackman /general dogsbody by Jim Lynch for the Racers as other people have said he was very protective of his track but I still managed to learn a few new things once we got to know each other a very good bloke he will be sadly missed by a lot of Reading fans .

Fabulous turn out for Doug today. With lots of former Reading officials, riders and staff including Armando Castagna who flew in from Italy.

 

Wonderful send off to a lovely guy who spent countless hours doing track work at Reading.
