Yes I have meetings from Vojens on DVD but I did attend the 1988 World Final there...just didn't recognise it.

Blimey! Didn't recognise it as I have been there!

Sad news indeed...remember him as announcer at Coventry for many years beford Dave Hammond took over. RIP

This is a stadium I've not visited...looks very neat? Another great thread!

I would never have got that!

Trouble is I don't know how to transfer images to this or any other site? Took me two weeks to sort out my new phone thru' basically trial and error!

I would have said same?

T'was the HLI Lubricants that gave me a clue?

Next one lads and lassies!

Randy Green?

Gordon was the middle one. I think that Barney (Brian) is still very active on social media and I found him very entertaining when interviewed on "The History of Canterbury Speedway" DVD. There is a fourth brother, Tracy, who never rode speedway.

I, too, thought Martin Dixon when I first saw the image.

Is Andy a clue or "Red Herring?" I guessing that he was Kent based being sponsored by Shornespeed?

Meanwhile back on topic no it's not Andy but I'm familiar with the style but stuggling with a name?

I've been out all day but some terrific banter!

Apparently there was a minute's applause for Gordon prior to the recent meeting. A true legend at Cowley.

A similar comment I made on this very topic drew a usual cynical "like" from said suspect who I've sent a PM to which hasn't apparently been read as yet!

Boo! Great thread despite the usual negativity of a certain individual.

John Titman? I think I was just beaten to it!!

Stan Bear?

That's correct...I think that it was 1980 when he realised he was tiring very quickly and drinking lots of water. He used to eat a Mars bar before meetings if I recall?

Yes Sidney I always thought that Gordon should have moved to Swindon after the closure of White City but I guess he felt comfortable having Bob Dugard as a promoter?

...still struggling!

Remember it well Sid!

That's a difficult one...one clue?
