Must be something about green leathers as Eric too wore green leathers.

Would be nice for someone to do something, I have never known a rider have to wait so long for his testamonial.

Cheers Mate, surely Mr Tattum could give him a date.

Could it have been Rob Mouncer or maybe Les Glover, and I think there was a guy called Andy Cusworth as well.

:lol: :lol:

Does anyone know whether or not Buzz has been given a date for his meeting at Stoke.

Certainly was down to the travelling.

Also what about the famous Martin Dugard decking Stefan Anderssen

I also seem to remember that Neimi was due to ride in World Final.

Could not agree more. :approve:

Reg Wilson giving Tommy Knudsen, a good slapping at Sheffield in the 80's.

Sorry no the bakery is not there anymore, use to love the smell of bread baking just before you got to smell the bikes.

Yes it was Poole, he did fall out with the Promotion, but I don't know why.

I miss Halifax, and the Shay, with its steep banking's, the place was a bit of a dump, but the racing was very very exciting, and the riders got close to the fence I swear that you could see the white's of there eyes as they went passed. Nowadays I don't think that you could have a Halifax anybody more the health and safety would not allow it.

I must say that my memory must have been playing tricks with me on that one, and yes I do remember turning out for the Tigers, signed by Ray Glover if I remember correctly, I think Ray did try to get him to return back to Sheffield the following season, seem to remember he was looking at flying up. I also seem to remember in the Speedway Star, some young girl writing to a Dave Jessop weekly column, asking if JD was a natural blonde or was it dyed, cannot remember DJ's answer. Have to admit that he was not a favourite of mine, I always thought he was a bit flash, but there is no doubting that he was a good rider though.

If my memory serves me well I seem to remember that he did not make much of a protest about it.

Yes but I think that eventually he will get it right, I think that the idea that he has as well as the racing he is trying to make it a day out, speedway with entertainment, I think that he is showing other Promoters that it is no good just to open the gates and expecting fans to come in,

The thing I remember about Tony Davey was his riding style, had a nice easy style of riding as though he was sat in a nice comfortable chair.

I don't think that we are that badly of at this moment.

Not sure if he has and I have not heard the rumour, if he has then it is a shame as I think that he has breathedlife back into these meetings, and done a good job .

Looks like a good read.

Read the article about Ole, and I have to say I dislike him even more than I did before, okay to make statements like shut down GB speedway for two years, but how many people does he want to put out of work, and what after that, making that kind of statement what next nothing. :mad:

I remember they guy, amazed that he has just retire from riding must have been well into his 50's, done fantastically well to remain competative all this time.
