Tried it but not downloading. Broady at 1 for Robins, Teo at 5. Purchased for 2 quid off e-bay.
-
Just been given this programme, my current and ex-team. Anyone have score and heat details? Briggo at 3 for Rangers.
-
Three excellent signings..well done Swindon, the team to beat again, fantastic club and fantastic fans
-
It used to be In Rosco we Trust(others pay cash), but Lee has made such a difference to Swindon speedway. Engages with the fans, more positive vibe around the place since he came in. Rosco and him work so well together. Swindon are the team to beat in 2020, as they bid for 3 titles in 4 years. Lee and Aluns Tangerine Army

BatchtasticMuesli said he's not coming back. Be great if they can fit Adam and Rastus in.
-
Jase was the bonus point king at Swindon, shepherded home Adam so many times. Could always be relied on in last heat, and most of the time didn't have to bovver as Swindon had it wrapped up well before. Helpful in the pits. Seems to have put his differences with Rosco aside now. Nice guy to chat to as well. Certainly in my Robins 7 of all-time. Rides injured a lot but ard as nails.

I have...Doyle, Jensen, Muesli, Ellis, Batch, no other riders could come close to them in OctoberI only like official averages cant be bovvered uvverwiseFinal CMA averages ..Doyle, Batch, Fricko, Bjerre, Cook,.Jensen, Lambert, Kurtz, Grajczonek, Masters, Muesli..lost interest..Iversen at 14. So great season for Rasser, The rest pretty much to form although Iversen Thorsell Andersen Nicholls Harris Schlein Morris should have done better
-
How can Rasser be so low down..Robins Rider of the Year, and superb in playoffs. Muesli and Ellis likewise. Adjust immediately
-
I remember that one. I also lost interest in 70s, returning again in 2004 up at Workington, before moving back to Swindon 2007. Enjoy it as much now as when I was schoolkid!
-
Rasser was certainly enjoying himself on Friday evening at the Robins bash, holding aloft the Rider of the Year, Premiership trophy, and Supporters Cup on supporters shoulders. Loves Swindon and the fans. The other riders were p1ssed off with him winning loads of Teng Tools for so many Rider of the Night awards! Big yin Vissing is popular too. Both had good seasons for Glasgow and Swindon. Was chatting to a Tigers lass that moved to Swindon to get together with a Swindon fan.

If there were more clubs like Swindon the sport wouldn't be in such a mess. Fantastic promotion, altered track producing better racing, and increased crowds. Over 3000 at the final, grown shirtless men singing and dancing, great night. But it should be like that every week. Will be back to1200 next year, with little atmosphere. Look at Poland, crowds of 10000. -
Great night..Razzer Rider of the Year...Gater-Batch...Bonus King Doyley...Unsung Heroes Track Staff. Only Tobi and Doyley not there. Great to see Leigh Adams message on big screen. Over 200 there. Hope trophies are still in one piece!!!
-
Flew to Oz for op, did a video on big screen.
-
Still tickets left for the Bash tonight..Rider of the Year award.

Great stuff. You two are probably older than me Went for just 1963, then we had to go norf of the River to Ackney and West Am, or across to SW London, Wimbledon. Real shame no speedway in the capital now. My Dad told me some great stories of post-war speedway at Wembley.
-
After Swindon battering Wolves and Ipswich in the playoffs my top riders for October would be Doyley, Batch, Muesli, Jensen, Ellis, Vissing, Perks.....

The Krays were nasty sods, like the Richardson's from my area of souf London, but they rarely targeted innocent peeps. But in 60s London it was a lot safer to grow up, and travel on public transport. I could walk to the Den or New Cross speedway, and travel on public transport at night to Arsenal, without any fear, something you don't have now, with all the knife crime and muggings, and terror attacks in London. You even have to be wary during the day now. Years ago there might be the occasional punch-up but you never saw knives, never heard of drugs. The demographics of places like Befnal Green have changed. The home of the jihadi ISIS girls that went to Syria. Used to be the home of Ackney Awk, West Am and The Arse fans, and those pwoper naughty Kways, cockneys eating pie and mash. Living in 21st. Century inner London wouldn't be for me now, don't like travelling and occasionally working there nowadays. The level of violence used by some of these gangs now outweighs the old 60s mobs, and taken it to a new terrifying level.

Thank u Norman..you were wearing an orange bowler hat and black cravat.
-
1963..New Cross v Hackney.. probably Squibbo in first race.
-
