Tom Walkinshaw interview part 2

The other thread was closed given most people had no chance of reading the article. Anyway I managed to get hold of last Friday's Herald Sun and after fighting with my scanner and Photoshop for the last half hour I am proud to present the said article.

Thank you for doing that Billy. It's nice to see that Tom is still the modest individual he always used to be...

He forgot to mention his role as the greatest spin doctor of all time.
Could run for politics, avoids any question, answers about different subjects.

Hopefully one day some one will write the truth about Shonky Racing.

Thanks billy! Much of what he says has a solid basis in fact... he was a reasonably handy steerer!

Very surprising article ... nice of Walkinshoddy to clear everything up and admit that nothing is ever his fault ... would never have guessed

My thoughts exactly.

Very interesting with regards to Skaife. A lot can be read into what he did and didnt say. It seemed like the perfect opportunity to give his version but he declined.

billy bigtime has a lot of promise if they can keep it on the circuit!
Interesting to see Foges in AA, suggest members of forums such as this one should stop giving Tom a hard time
Looks like Tom wants to reinvent himself.

'Members of forums such as this one' probably would stop giving him a hard time if the journalists in this country did their job properly and reported without bias and asked the questions that need asking.

Oh hang on - if they did that the Big Bad Wolf (aka V8SCA) would take their series pass away from them...

Does Mr Fogarty write Mr Walkinshaw's PR now??

They tried that.. actually they did that... and the category has rarely featured in the Sydney Morning Herald ever since...

fogarty who is he, doesn't even ripple a broad sheet. Must be some out of work hack looking for a meal ticket.

Journo's , lower than a pregnant snakes belly, couldnt ask a question if their life depended ont it.

never let truth or facts get in the way of selling papers or Air time

now thats the truth

Is it just me or is Mr Fogarty's article remarkably similar to the above? Did he make notes while Mr Gover interviewed, or is Mr Walkinshaw a one-trick-pony when giving responses during interviews??

Oh, GTR ... I think Walkinshoddy has quite a few tricks in his repertoire!
