Probably all the old people.

Couldn't agree more. It should be full points to the away team and a walkover score awarded.

Indeed, luckily my browser has a built-in one which works seamlessly.

Come on John, you of all people would have known the 'Frying Pan' nickname which clearly would not have referred to a big (or even average-sized) track.

You can watch them live on the official YouTube channel for free, in HD, with no adverts at all.

Weird is good. (It also breaks the 'i' before 'e' rule which makes me like it even more!)

No brown envelopes available? Could have invoked 'envelope replacement' and used white ones.

I wonder why Reg Craven pulled-out? Ironically, he received fatal injuries the following night at Poole.

Southampton 1949 15/05 Southampton - practice - winner: Welch - CONFIRM DATE, EVENT NAME & WINNER Did you mean 15/03 ?

No, 2011, when the change in noise was markedly noticeable.

They removed the classic speedway roar which was an integral part of the sport for me. I gave it until the end of that season then never returned for more.

Ringwood closed down mid-1955, their last home meeting was v Eastbourne on May 22nd.

Oh, I don't doubt that, my point was that there really weren't any highlights in that appalling final.

That can't have taken very long as I don't recall there being any.

That would mean Kent starting at 5.30 or earlier!

It's the new Godden.

Poole wasn't too bad.

That's an understatement. His creations are amazing, especially his Velocette V-twin.

That's true of motorcycle sport in general, not just speedway.

Soon to be followed by a commode.

But is is better than Wimborne Road? :-)

Walter Elliot rode as Mark Hall for Berwick in 68/9.
