Plymouth were out of the playoffs before this meeting

My bad. I thought they mathematically had a chance if they got the bonus point, plus the chance at 3 points this evening. Unlikely of course

There is inconclusive video evidence from Plymouth's stream. Have you seen other footage?

Watching the live stream it looked like Bomber kicked out at Ben but Bomber claims he was just trying free himself from the entanglement 

Which is what actually happened 

[marko]

Barker busted a gut to try and get past Chris but its not his fault the track is so narrow, it makes it very easy to block, but the way Baker acted after is typical of the petulant attitude he has always had when he does not get his way.

Bomber acted totally out of character so whatever Barker said to him, must have been out of order.

Its an odd one, thought those two got on well. Certainly out of character for Bomber. Was going to come on here and say great, we need to see more handbags but I'm not sure stamping is what we want to see.

Hopefully they've sorted it out.

The assumption is they got on well because they are both Cornish but it may not be the case anymore. I seem to remember they got on well when they both rode for Coventry even after Barker rode over Harris at Poole!!

Doesn’t look like that to me as they are approaching the pits.Harris rode into him for some reason.

You are correct Plymouth mathematically could have caught Scunthorpe had they got all 6 points last night and tonight and Scunny got no more points. 
 

very unlikely but possible

there is literal video evidence of it, doesnt matter if you were there or not weve all seen it. 

Show us this evidence you have then. There is nothing that I've seen on the live stream or online that shows anyone kicking or stamping on anyone else

What Harris did was nasty and loutish. He clearly stamped on Ben after pushing him and then carving him off the bike. Disgusting. I've lost a lot of respect for Bomber now.

Have you got any evidence of this clear stamp? Cause I've not seen any angle that shows it unclearly let alone clearly. 

Do you have any thoughts on what Ben Barker said? Deliberately putting another rider into the fence could paralyse, seriously injure or kill them. Should a rider have to put up with that? What happens in future if Ben outgates Bomber, should a rider be allowed to make a threat that could affect the outcome of a future race/match?

He doesn't have any evidence. Usual rubbish.

There is video evidence of what bomber did and fans at the meeting saw it live

There is absolutely zero evidence of what barker did or didn't say yet everyone takes it as gospel that what bomber says is the truth when it could be an excuse to justify even though there is no justification for what he did stamp or no stamp he still deliberately knocked barker off his bike. 

[JanAndersen]

Nothing wrong with the racing; hard but fair. Harris went over the top afterwards and should face consequences for it. It was described as 'loutish' earlier in the thread which feels bang on.

Bomber has had so many brainwashed for years, as the ultimate team man and ride through fences for the fans, been making good money out of this persona for years, seems in his old age he’s forgot the camera and the fans could still see him. 
 

His statement just makes no sense when you watch the video, he’d of been better of making no statement at all just made himself look a bit silly.

Tbf the only people defending him are Glasgow fans (on here anyway).

Certainly don't condone Bomber's conduct (although I don't believe he has stamped) but I think we all know that Barker has said something pretty bad, he's an utter plank and always has been. Bomber's reaction was very much out of character too.

All a bit handbaggish really and adds a bit of spice next time they meet on track.

It has the body movement of a stamp, so can see why there is a debate about it. Tbh bomber should know better, he should point blank ignore him like Zach and Ben Cook do, even when he's having a go. Great self control tbf from them in past visits at Plymouth. 

Next time they meet on track prob be the pairs if Scott not back! Unless they ban Bomber from it 👀🤷‍♀️

Zach doesn't visit plymouth anymore he likes riding on tarmac and he's good at it to be fair.
