3-1 and welcome back to Chasing the Racing episode 105 and we're up at Oliver's Mount Scarborough and we're delighted to be joined by Stavros.

Welcome to the podcast. How are you?

I'm very well thank you. I'm impressed that you know I'm Stavros actually

because that was sort of a name that came out in the

70s I guess you'd say and you know ironically I get these messages from

people in Greece and places they think I'm Greek and A lot of people would be wondering why the hell I'm called Stavros and it was Barry Sheen because if you knew Barry you have to have a nickname.

Everyone had a nickname.

And he found out when I was a kid and I was about 12, 13 years old and I was a proper

little fat bastard. Can I say that?

Of course you can.

Anything you bloody wants. Right, okay, bloody great. I was a fat little porker and I had long curly hair and there

was a program called Kojak and on Kojak was this fat bloke with curly air called

Savros and that's where it came from and I've sort of stuck with it now and I get all these weird kind of people

thinking I'm Greek but I'm not I'm very much very British born and bred in

Cambridge year and sort of the old guys know I'm Stavros and how did you know I'm Stavros I guess

from my Twitter site or something? Yeah Twitter at Stavros six isn't that?

It is yeah. Yeah just years of seeing you you know, it got on commentary and whatever.

What is the most creative name you had for another rider than Barry?

What was his most out there one?
