Sidney the robin

I think the 5.03 is with BP hard to replace the best 2 pointer in the league.

I thought he was on loan to Oxford like Malc ? was he not a Swindon asset.?

Kevin Pope, Malc Holloway, Richard Evans, Kevin Young had some real old ding dongs in the second halves.I never ever in my wildest dreams thought Malc would achieve what he did but thinking now in a way he underachieved.

What is his average now 4.57 or 5.03 ?

You have changes on the brain, let Holder go to score points for somebody else madness.

Well done to Danny Ayres chuffed for him , last year at Swindon he got a max in a NL challenge Swindon v Coventry. He was great value and fun and speedway could do with a few more like him.

i I remember Alan Sorensen along with other juniors around that time Bobo Valentine, Billy Wall, Martin Hitch and later in 75 Melvin Soffe.Can you remember John Bishop having a spell with you 69/70 maybe? i went for a few meetings in 73/74 when Kilb joined you i was a big fan went to that big individual meeting there a few years was it the Supporters club trophy.?

I stand by what i said you are still a hypocrite support Darcy to the hilt being a blue noser yet crap all over Woffinden double standards.And another point why is Pete Adams someone i respect helping him he cant be all bad.

Being young he is up and down at the moment, have a look at his scores but there is real quality there i have no doubt if he was in a BF now he would be on the pace.And every race he was in you could not really predict what he was going to do he is that good i think.

Thinking back Svein ( because Martin was involved) and Geoff Curtis were the first i can remember passing Geoff i believe would of gone on to good things.

Did he always nab the best gate? there was a sarcastic mention of this by a young Jessup he said riding with Ove was like riding another away rider.

How good would it have been for the Belle Vue fans to be able to have maybe cheered Bewley on in the BF.

If you think Tai only has a few fans you must be Stevie Wonder 😀 a hypocrite still stands ironic that Tai/Darcy got on well.

Over Bewley?🙁

Have the speedway star and the express, never really knew alot about Kevin's early career Romford .But have a few programmes of him riding for Young England and i am sure he rode against a young Tommy Jansson,Jansson i remember had a good series for Young Sweden.

You could and his son has also done a great job, dont know what you think both are good but i always thought Mark would make a better speedway rider than Erik.??

The same Bruno also the Martin Hewlett tragedy was a huge shock.

Maier, could he be mentioned? Briggs has been noted as a poor team rider (Selfish mentioned) Mirac i know was a great team rider how does Ove,Craven rate on that question team riding skills.? Often forgotten.

I agree with you TDM view is totally understandable and yes we could all be wrong but at least you two put it in a nice way fair play for that.

Are you SURE you are deluded ? Newcastle is always a hard task and he has not qualified other years.Other riders Brits you have knocked last year you said they were inferior Worralsx2 Auty,Wright,Bates,Starke,Garrity, have all made regular British Finals BREEZE through you are having a laugh.

Are Darcy /Tai tarred with the same brush ? you saw the best in Darcy so why not Tai ?.In a way you are a hypocrite,i stuck up for Ward long before his accident (as endless others did on this forum) because i saw the best in him yet you just kill off Woffinden you dont even know the bloke. I will stick my neck out we are not producing loads of young riders as you say that we can GUARANTEE to even reach championship level so yes Tai's input would be a help.

Spot on as usual Norbold hard to pick a order though dont you think ? Young won in 51/52, but from 53/59 the other four won 6 titles and 8 rostrum places as you said Young would be high up on anyone's list.😀

I know Craven had a great head to head record against Ove but Ove,Craven,Mirac,Briggo had to be the men of the 50s ??

I was never a fan of Tai i thought he was overated but i was totally wrong thought he should of have to of qualified for his second stint in the series.But he worked bloody hard took his chance and how i admire him for that people also forget he lost his Dad along the way how hard was that but he came through.What young lad would not listen to Tai ? not many i would suggest and in a way it hurts me to think that Craven( maybe) PC, Lee have won less titles ( Different days) but i want Tai to win more World titles.

Really liked him at Swindon things didnt always go his way but Newcastle are a great club in showing there faith and loyalty to riders great really also could Lambert and Bewley both get wildcards for the BF.?
