Must have been Arsenal and Spurs yobs.

My bro said Lidsey and Pickering were outstanding in Oz championships at Gillman..as good as Fricke Tungate Kurtz and Holders. Hopefully Rowe will do well at Swindon. Hartel Nicol Becker Flint Kemp should go well.

Collecting progs from the first season of British League, have every club but just Newcastle difficult to get hold of. Anyone have one I can purchase? Boocock Coventry, Briggs Swindon, MacKinlay West Am, Broadbanks Swindon, Harrfeldt Ammers. top 5, even though Robins finished fourth bottom. Ammers Champions / Cup Winners, Long Eaton stone bottom in 18 team league. Remember visiting the 3 London tracks this year. Wolves 64 Newport 14! And 31 home fixtures April -October. Fights in the pits, on the track and terraces, Halifax v Coventry! Sadly 10 clubs West Am, Wimbledon, Ackney, Oxford, Newport, Coventry, Exeter, Halifax, Cradley Heath, Long Eaton no more. Swindon, Belle Vue, Wolves, Sheffield still in top league, Poole, Glasgow, Edinburgh, Newcastle second tier.

Would like to see the two west country teams at top, but Zummerzet have mid-table look. Will go Poole, Glasgow, Leicester top 3, with Newcastle and Berwick battling for wooden spoon.

Belle Vue could upset the Robins Swindon Vue Wolves Ipswich Sheffield Lynn Peteboro

Lidsey and Holder excellent, Pickering entertaining.

My bruv sent some photos from Gillman

Disappointing to see some of the top Aussies such as Doyley and Batch, Josh G, Schleiny, Morra, Heeps, Allen, not in. Adams always showed and won many titles.

My bruv said some rain in Adelaide today, don't know if Gillman will be on.

Only the famous Swindon Robins in 57 managed to stop the London stranglehold from 46 to 61

Fundin, Mauger, Briggs, Nielsen, Rickardsson, Olsen, Craven.

Why, has someone nicked it?

Used to watch the Wright Bros. up at Worky 2004/5, James was flying number 6, Charles a second-halfer. Always had time for a chat at Worky and Belle Vue, the local team they followed.

Christ, do you have a special store?

My brother in Australia has hundreds, my other brother in Swindon has started collecting 1965 British League. Some good bargains on e-bay. Originally they were 9d.

His address posted in programme..114 Alberta Street, Walworth, London SE17. Telephone RELiance 4476

Just purchased set of 15 home programmes from their last season and my first season as a 7 year old from nearby Peckham. 7 quid off of eBay, bargain. Remember the first match v Hackney, PL v Southampton, and last match v Poole.

I used to go when I lived up there 2004/5, good crowds, and characters such as Stoney, Steady, Wrighty. Shame it's no more, with support dropping off, especially after winning the treble. Some good memories, 2500 there at Stoneys testimonial , and the Fours evenings, and the 3 streakersI delivered a car to Lillyhall then caught trains back to Swindon.

Good memories yesterday passing DP on train.

Ain't no seats at the Arena, you can bring your own though.

I thought the new cleaner was Slovak, Rosco said it took him 4 hours to vacuum the pub

And 8 special buses ran to the stadium!

It was 47-43 to the Robins at Swindon. Briggo 18, Teo 11, Split 10, Broady 9 Street 9. Cheers Rob Bamford and Norman JacobsRob doesnt attend speedway anymore, occasionally seen at his local Waitrose in Malmesbury

Thanks

No luck Doug, will ask Rob Bamford the Swindon stats guy.
