Umm, don't look at his Instragram?

My equivalent gripe is Gee Atherton (amongst plenty others) swearing in his posts from years back. Again, its not the worst but its also lazy and arrogant when, knowingly, kids will be watching. But heh, he's not Andrew Tate so I'm not losing sleep.

Now you're just being a primary school teacher.

I'm from the northeast and I've encountered all of them at some point. I don't even know where to start. He's one of the only people I'm willing to criticise on a public forum because I have my own first hand experience and he's so awful that I'm prepared to believe all of the rumours.

My earliest experience of Daddy Hart was when he used to drive his pickup up and down the side of the DH track at Hamsterley running uplifts for Danny. That road is only just passable in a 4x4 and not suitable for driving fast but he used to give it full send everywhere and had a mouthful of abuse for anyone who got in his way or slowed him down. There's also many incidents of him grabbing Danny's bike and barging to the front of a queue at races or uplifts. He's always seconds away from dropping a "Do you know who my son is?" to anyone who complained. Then there's a shouting and arguing with officials and marshals, it just goes on and on. All of my memories have poor Danny in the background looking sheepish.

I haven't seen them for years. Hamsterley used to be my local but I'm not giving them a penny.

I can tell a similar story about a very well respected multiple world champion and their family. Pushy, obnoxious parents are nothing new at any level in any sport, and are one reason why I stopped helping to organise races years ago.

Yeah that's true. My shitlist is not limited to the Hart family that's for sure!

I think Daddy Hart (that's what I'm calling him from now on) is fair game because he's been a foul mouthed, aggro, hillbilly for decades and it's not exactly new information.
