Thomas obviously too high an average. I was getting mixed up as I had him as an alternative fit to Vissing in case he didn’t fancy it.

Lol Complin…….edited….

Complin, Thomas, Zischke or another 4pt. Aussie perhaps?

A lot maybe, but nowhere near the majority……….if he is indeed our no.1, most of us are going to be very happy.

Really??…….I’d love to know how you could possibly know these details?……..are you the team accountant?

Would have been very disappointed if he hadn’t signed…….Great news……..

Electric greyhounds anyone?………..lol

Yup, track spares never seemed to be kept in great nick but they were a necessity back in the day as riders generally only had the one bike which was usually transported on a rack across the backs of their cars or on a wee trailer. The only other option, if things went wrong, was to borrow a team mate’s bike. Most riders in those days did their own mechanics too and the only other personnel involved were pushers. Speedway was also only a full time job for very few.

I remember him advising the (troublesome at the time) street bikers to come and vent their adrenaline on the Meadowbank track instead of alienating other road users.

Would just need the same two bikes for the whole meeting too……lol

…….in a huff…..lol

Not the best comparison though……..Stock Car racing isn’t a professional sport. Only the best over a season get a financial bung as far as I know so not anywhere near the expense of running a Speedway club.

…..or maybe battery goosed by taking too many wet track close-up pics……lol

Has he checked it’s not on “silent”……lol

No different from any other part of life though, Fromafar……….we’re paying more for less of everything these days as far as I can see.

They all say that…….lol

Don’t think he’ll be short of a few bob and don’t think he’s just in it for the money. He has a passion for riding bikes and winning.

Sure it’s not Castlemaine xxxx you’re drinking?……..…….lol

I think you’re basing your assumptions on the remarks of a few of the usual sceptics on this forum. Harris, to my mind, is still very much a class act and puts many bums on seats. Entertainment is what speedway is all about (or should be)….and he is still the king of that.

Now I’m worried he might be coming to Glasgow instead of the much predicted Vissing…………..

……or Tate thingamajig….

Ooooh!……..and I thought Harris was happily married……..lol

Never thought his manner came across well……..like ignoring opposition fans’ applause for instance.

Which one will be riding pillion?…….’cause they’ll both be wanting the same bit of track…….3 inches from the safety fence…..lol

If that’s the case then it would scupper Brennan, Nowak and Vissing being a combined prediction…….
