Fucking trumped up bullshit charges, Goey is like the son of Mick & is a pillar of society who can do no wrong in my eyes. [^]
That Cunt Foggy probly set him up. :(
What a fantastic role model he is for young up & coming Racers. [8D]
Show the court the video of the 2 WSBK races at the Island from '96 & no Judge would ever convict him. [8D]

That was possibly the funniest and saddest thing i have read all in one article for a while...... its pretty sad what he has thrown away, but then you have to laugh when he insisted to the magistrate he was a "famous racer mate" but then admitted he had applied for a job in subway. :-)

Mr Gobert was at a recent streetbike shootout at Willowbank. What a loud mouthed, foul mouthed, drunken or druged (im not sure which) bum. What a fuckwit. I reckon subway could do better.

Sadly Shayne is right, something snapped off big time. He's done far too many drugs and it's fucked his brain. He can't even talk properly any more when he's straight (which isn't very often). Sadly Boxer, you won't be seeing him coming back mate. Shame I know.

Thats really sad for a guy that could ride and was extremly talented and gifted and really had the racing world at his feet.

He could have made a living just staying in the states after getting the bullet from the 500s if he could have stayed clean and actually turned up to ride.

I can remember a number of times reading of him just not turning up to race meetings and there was just no sign of were he was and what he was doing.

I to would love to see a come back from the go show hes one of the most waisted talents.
