  1. Mick how many pints have you had? my top 7 witches in no order Sanders,Louis,gollob, Ricko,Sigalos,Davey, Loram.
  2. Dag only reached 1 World final which was unfortunate really i went to the European Final in 1974 he qualified.And i can remember the 74 final pretty well Mitch was superb and i can remember Bettsy reaching his only WF and riding with a broken collar bone scoring 6 points with a race win.
  3. Lovaas was one of my favourite riders to think how he progressed from his first Newcastle year was amazing.At Reading(in Mitches shadow!) Hackney/ challenged for the helmet) /Oxford he was top class.My main memory of Dag was turning up at the Abbey at 7.15 for the Mike Keen meeting it was pi....g down with rain had been most of the day.I was convinced it was off in that meeting Dag cruised to a 15 point maximum(did he not practice on iced Lakes in Norway?) Steve agree with both of your Eastie sides and god that alltime 7 would never of been ever beaten at home a superb all-time top 7.
  4. In this side now surely we have to have two two pointers in? Musielak is he under 8? really worried about this side now.
  5. Hunter,Yeates,Rumsey,Perks,Shields,Hack,Bass Certainly "Bobbath never see Eric or Arthur Forrest ride but both would be in a all time top Halifax seven. Kennett,Niemi,Lovaas(hated the track) Cieslak,Weatherley,Greer,Sampson
  6. You are right Steve probably is best to stick to the best 7 ever because in my original favourite 7 had to miss Clive Hitch out who was a real favourite of mine.The BEST 7 and that is easy for me are Briggs Ashby Crump Adams Kilby Broadbank Doyle.
  7. No Mort , Johnson, some line up "norbold"😜 Thommo, Middleton,Banger,Morton,Biggs,Lovaas,Plech.
  8. Auty on certain tracks can mix it look at this years British Final he has reached four British Finals Newman so far has not behind Wright,Starke,Garrity,Bates,Bridger,Lawson, (ect) in that respect.
  9. I remember the meeting well Sigalos got the lot from reserve and i am sure Kilby might of got a max as well but he never met Sigalos ??? remember Holloway getting 1111-4 that night vital points a real howler of a night a real wet meeting.
  10. He needs to improve in the PL as well do stats lie?
  11. Spot on can we qualify by just our home form i think so ? to see Doyle everyweek and to see decent racing that is all that matters to me.Another question is i wonder if anybody can be bothered to look back and find out how many titles has Ford won with his opening 1/7 line up.? he nearly always makes changes.
  12. Possibly maybe you are right but for me is still better than Newman has reached British Finals as we all know his gating is his big problem it is atrocious.
  13. A very strange comment scored 6 plus 2 from four rides at Poole at the backend of the season beating Pedersen and your golden boy Newman.He probably is to Leicester what Newman is to Poole a Brit gives his all and is popular.
  14. REG but really enjoyed watching Sean the prawn. Middleton Pander Holmqvist Lovaas Dews Berg Timmo.
  15. These teams are my favourite five teams of all time what would your favourite top seven be for each team.? Here goes (no order) Swindon./ 1.Briggs,2.Ashby.3.P.Crump.4.Kilby.5.Broadbank.6.Adams.7.Holloway. Sheffield.1.Airey.2.Wilson.3.Moran.4.K.Moran.5.Haley.6.Wyer.7.Valentine. Belle Vue. 1.Mauger 2.Craven(didnt see ride) 3.Collins 4. Morton 5.Pusey 6.S.Moran 7. J.Crump. Halifax.1.Boocock. 2.Carter 3.Younghusband 4.Janke 5.Monk 6.Sharpe 7. Cartwright. Reading.1.Michanek. 2.Lovaas 3. Jonsson. 4.Mudge 5. Holloway. 6. Curtis 7. Glanz.
  16. Was Holder left out because Ford could not repair there relationship? this side he has built is no great shakes.Also with Chris being in the side that would of really benefitted Jack i believe he will go on and have a good year cant see this Poole side winning the league.
  17. Fine at home away from home well beatable.
  18. Please do you want to lick Matt's !!!! he is not a god and going by last year he has to prove again he can create a team i am not convinced he can again.
  19. Mauger what a rider i often wondered when Hull pushed Coventry hard for the title you knew Ivan was gutted when they were beaten.But he was a GREAT individual rider but he was a great team man to got extra points out of his lesser team riders with his knowledge he did it at Belle Vue ,Exeter,Hull Legend.
  20. What's the betting there is a change somewhere along the line when they find there strength in depth is not anough without a big hitter.
  21. We would have a weak tail end but i would love Buzz to be in our top 5.Could we fit him in? what average would Morris be on.? Going back to Poole god how Ford failed badly to get the best out of Buzz.
