Hello! Please forgive me if this kind of post is prohibited - I'm sort of throwing out a hail Mary here. I didn't know my dad, he passed away when I was very young. I only have a few of his possessions he left me, a leather jacket & his birth certificate. I've been trying to find records of his Speedway career. I've tried to check with each individual club, with no replies forthcoming. I also purchased the book Where Eagles Dared which has the history of Speedway in Motherwell UK but was not able to find any reference to him.
Clubs he raced for: Motherwell Eagles, Belle Vue Aces, Minden. Years he was possibly active were between 1955-1978
Maybe someone has a talent for sleuthing or can suggest an angle i haven't thought about? I'd appreciate anything
His full name: Matthew Currie Mclachlan, born 1938-08-22 in Falkirk
TIA
