Never heard any booing,but then we were on the m25 heading home after 6 laps of 2nd race,could see how it was going to pan out barring crashes,so an early exit was a shrewd move to beat the rush.

Cracking weekend as usual though,great to meet up with Annette and Dickie for cider and ice cream at paddock hill,Ozz for the yap and shower at the chinese..! and great to see the elusive 'Copeus photographus' out in its natural enviroment,lurking in the woods with his long one..

Thanks must go to the following:
Airwaves hospitality for the nicest coffee.
The Bates motel for accomodation.
Itv for the commentary box.
The kent dogging club at sheene curve(you know who you are).
Shakey'check out my motor home' Byrne and John Hopkins for keeping it real.
The girls in The Lion at Farningham,for bluetooth filth..ding dong,
And Finally,Andrew '15 flushes' Pugsley for the laughs..

Cheers all,Moggers@couldntbearsedtoclimbthestairs.com

On the TV coverage it did sound like booing, when Kiyo first went on the podium, something to do with the kickball shirt Kiyo was wearing??

Tight ar5se Tuxworth must have been down to Louth Uniteds team shop closing down sale to buy a goalies shirt rather than splashing out on some printing

BSB was full of ifs and buts and maybes that's what makes it good TV and probably the best domestic championship in the world.

Kiyo was not the only rider to get abuse. I watched it with my mate Kathi, lovely girl (normally), made us dinner just in time for the 4 O'clock start and bought me beer all night, the night before, but then she turned nasty. Real nasty. Swearing blind Lavilla wears a syrup and is at least 50 years old if he is a day! No compassion when he fell off either. All that from someone, who is in fact, Spanish! Think she fancies Kiyo though....might have had something to do with it.

Anyway, I don't know why he was allowed to move up a place on the grid or why Leon went past Kiyo, when he would have been better staying in second and harrassing him into terminal error, before running off to the flag.

ps I heard the booing pretty clearly on TV and it was not very clever. Shame the weather compromised the end of the season

Greg Lavilla is a great rider. A real class act and he was very unfortunate at Brands.

I was leant on the side of the podium taking shots when the presentations were made and it DEFINITELY was Booing.

Most of it came from a bunch of piiissssed up fans stood in front of the podium, one of which incidently had Leon's girlfriend Ollie on his shoulders. She was trying to get them to calm down which I think worked as they then started praising Kiyo.

Sad really.......but an unfortunate side to a lot of sporting events.

Yep got to agree with the others. I was only 20-30 yards from the podium and could hear only applause and cheers for Kiyo

What I did find disgusting was the attitude of the organisers in letting things drag on and then cancel the 2nd supersport race.
