First of all Billy you say otherS misfortunes. There was only 1 persons misfortune that resulted in Archie winning the Senior. Obviously Flint McGuinness. Archie was beating everyone else at the time and the only person close to him was Lougher.
The NW200 situation was in my opinion more to do with the TAS team rather than Archies but that is my own opinion and to be honest i dont know the full facts but what a ride from the back of the grid none the less!
I don't know what went on at TT2002 with Linda Dunlop or the so called snubbing of Davy Wood, Im just commenting on the racing matters.
Im actually a big Flint fan so im obviously delighted to see that he may be getting his BSB career sorted again. Archies not getting any BSB offers because he s not good enough at the short circuits. Simple as that but i dont think he wants them anyway.
Lastly you say Archie is not a star. What sort of racing fan says that a man who has won the Senior 2 years on the trot is not a star! You can go on bout Flints misfortune but thats the TT for you and i was as sorry as anyone when he dropped out.
