MV, Thanks for your concern about the Toffees, another day perhaps? Did you know that Steven Gerrard was a boyhood Evertonian? Not to mention Robbie Fowler and Michael Owen! Where did we go wrong? lol

Regarding Tom Herron and the alleged comments he made; I'd agree with you I find it hard to believe that he did indeed hate racing at the NW or any Irish event. Tom was formiddable in his own back yard, most other places too, and he remains immensely popular with road race fans all over the world. Can you imagine for example, Martin Finnegan saying he hates racing at Skerries, of course not, it's inconceivable that he'd utter such a thing, same could be said for Tom Herron I reckon. It's a little disappointing that this issue has tarnished his book but I'm not going to condemn Steve Parrish for what may well be an honest error but I'd like to think he was big enough to acknowledge that fact. Of course he may have done so already, but to date I'm not personally aware of any correction. Here's hoping. alf
