Doners123 Posted August 27 Report Share Posted August 27 16 hours ago, TigerIain said: So where is this video evidence of this alleged stamp? Bomber's actions look to be those of a very angry man trying to stop a bike with no brakes Barker cut over the centre green to chase after Bomber and clearly said something offensive. Ben Barker commented on Bomber's post to dispute some of it but chose not to dispute or clarify what he said. I'd take from that that Barker doesn't object to what Bomber claims he said. Plenty of comments on what Bomber did, but tumbleweed on a rider threatening to deliberately take another rider out at high speed potentially injuring, paralysing or killing him. I honestly can’t believe that people’s love of riders get in the way of facts. did Harris and barker have a hard good race …. Yes. did barker say any words to Harris. No one knows but likely something was said. is there clear evidence no matter what Harris says that he swiped barkers bike yes there is. did Harris stomp on barker who knows from the video it looks like it but it’s no conclusive. Did they have words in the pits of course that the nature of it. should they shake hands and just get on with it, of course. Race I thought was harsh but maybe just about fair. I’ve no idea what barker says. But Harris clearly swipes the wheel and Harris looks old an idiot saying otherwise. Just own it. Shake hands and move on. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have loved watching the guy over the last 25+ years, and Cardiff 2007 was one of the best sporting events I've ever experienced, but people have lost the plot with the way they go on whenever he's involved. It looks to me like he swiped out Barker and then stood on him as he tried to get untangled. Was it an intentional stamp? Probably not, but it does look like he steps on him.

There was absolutely nothing harsh about it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s been practicing that on Cruz in the back garden. Does anyone remember Joe Screen knocking Jimmy Nilsen off at Hull many years ago by hitting his left handlebar as he passed him after the race? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TigerIain Posted Tuesday at 07:51 AM Report Share Posted Tuesday at 07:51 AM (edited) SCB have concluded their investigation into the incident at Plymouth and confirmed that Bomber did not stamp on Ben Barker (think there is a few apologies needed), and no further action to be taken. "Having gained more video evidence of the incident from a different angle, this clearly shows that at no point did Mr Harris kick or stamp on Mr Barker." Anyway if nothing else it gave some interest to what was mainly a meeting full of 'from the gate' heats Edited Tuesday at 07:53 AM by TigerIain 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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?

But it seems you're too arrogant to admit that you're wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
