Barmy Army

Are u sure that was the reason fella? Jus' sayin'........

Yeah that's spot on what happened.

After all ive said, guess which group of fans I passed on my way to the complex on Sunday?

[Eurotech]

To be honest they're not hard to spot... I remember their reaction when Plato rolled at Donington last year. I believe they were also at the WTCC round too supporting Huffy like everyone else who was there

[Not a "deadman"]

Apart from swigging excessive amounts of beer, making a load of unnecessary noise, supporting one of the most ignorant, egotistical and dirtiest drivers in the BTCC. What is the point of the "Barmy Army" ?

At least they do seem to be real people enjoyin motorsport, not like certain people on social networking sites who seem to be council flat dwellers with multiple id's who live a lie behind a computer keyboard.

Is this like a metaphysical and/or philosophical question? The same question could equally be asked of the supporters of any football club or indeed of the Barmy Army as applied to the England Cricket team.

"swigging excessive amounts of beer, making a load of unnecessary noise" sounds like a great day out to me.

And as for the comment of "one of the most ignorant, egotistical and dirtiest drivers in the BTCC", motor racing drivers in general all have egos the size of Texas. Without knowing who you are talking about, this statement could be applied to every driver in the field.

Well being a 'Honda fan' it's pretty obvious who i would say he's talking about but i think he should be looking closer to home.

I thought the Barmy Army were cricket fans that travelled with the English team when the Ashes series is playing in Australia? I've had the pleasure of watching a test match at Adelaide oval in the near vicinity of the Army, and they sang and drank their day away - no problems from them, but lots of problems for pissed up Aussie kiddies who wanted to fight the first person who sneezed!

Maybe they've branched out into motor racing?
