I'm surprised that no one else has started a thread on this subject. I watched tonight's programme with great interest, and although it didn't show the top 10, I think it was the top 7 for some reason, who would want to argue with their choice?
For me. I thought the 1935 Senior, (Woods v Guthrie) should have been up there. Also Joey's 125 win in 1993 when he equalled SMBH's record number of wins. Geoff Duke's 99.97 from 1955. SMBH's 1961 hatrick. Malcom Uphill's 100mph lap on a Production bike in 1970. There must have been loads. Maybe with me not seeing any of the other programmes, I may have missed something, but this was their top 7. Mind you, I thought they were still a pretty good choice. Perhaps a bit more action, and a few less interviews would have suited me.
But what about the crowds at the Bungalow, and the Creg when (my all time hero) Bob Mac won in 1957? Please don't try to tell me that there are more spectators around the course today, than there were then. Even allowing for latest stringent restrictions, just where are the bulk of spectators now?
