I have a spare copy of the Crystal palace book, I thought I'd lost mine and got another one only for my original to turn up!, I will try and look it out.

Click on the T2TV link below and all will be revealed.

Some on the Days Gone By series too!

A CHAP FROM bRIGHTON HAS A BRILLIANT SITE COVERING ALL TEST MATCHES MAY WELL BE WORTH A LOOK.

No sign of the Rye House "Roosters"

Did Sunderland not also go under the "Saints" in the 60's? and can't see Romney Falcons anywhere on here?

Dont think he has one anymore!

i think the track was built by johnny guilfoyle for his son laurie guilfoyle to practise on.laurie raced second halfs at rayleigh and i think he may of made a few apperances for the rockets. It was indeed Laurie and Johnny G. It's amzing whats still out there, had some sent over from teh USA, so more work to do.

Just finished editing this one details on the website link below.

Certainly is, just finished editing the IOW round, very impressed with him and Ben Hopwood.

Now Young Robert, I can correct you on this, because there was indeed a track, it was owned by a former Rayleigh rider and used as a training track, when it was found out they made them close it, Footage is on the Days Gone By DVD. (see link below). terry Stone gave me all the details on it.

Steve Lucero (Eastbourne)

Baz, Hans actual words were, "!we don't mind banter, shouting and fun, we expect it, and to be honest we enjoy it" the fans here obviously wanted their team to win, we appreciate that, but we draw the line at people throwing bottles", I think that says it all, the morons outside banging on the glass and shouting abuse, well I'd like to say it was just kids, but it wasn't, it was a mixtures of all ages who obviously either are not regular supporters or are just pathetic, I think the latter. As for the Danes not signing autographs?, well my little girl got all of em and riders posed for photo's too. maybe when they got back out side, they thought best just to get into a safer place after what went on earlier, and who can blame them. True fans would not stoop so low.

I really couldn't agree more, I too was at that Press Conference and felt totally embarrassed by it. When the PR man has to apologise for so called fans it leaves you speechless. For the record Glass Bottled beer was on sale at £10 for 4 bottles in the bar, maybe we are looking at having to stop Beer being sold, thus preventing those that do enjoy a drink having their night spoilt by a few idiots.!

How about making it 7 man teams, 2 groups of 4 each group meets each other once, top 2 in semis and grand final (like they did for teh Daily Mirror Tourney in 1973. I think with 7 man teams we could match the Danes, Aussies and Swedes, plus it would be a real World TEAM Cup. Matches could be staged over 2 weeks at several tracks and just maybe a Cardiff Final. 1 semi in the North and 1 in the South Now that would be good.

Great minds think a like!

Hi Nick, I think we should be called England, just like in 1975-80 when we knew we could win. Glad Chris is in, but wish we had some rider with home track knowledge. Will be there early, so come and have a chat.

The teams are: Red – Australia 1. Travis McGowan 2. Ryan Sullivan 3. Todd Wiltshire 4. Leigh Adams (Capt) 5. Jason Crump Blue - Great Britain 1. Lee Richardson 2. Mark Loram 3. Scott Nicholls (Capt) 4. Chris Louis 5. Chris Harris White - Sweden 1. Andreas Jonsson (Capt) 2. Antonio Lindback 3. Fredrick Lindgren 4. Mikael Max 5. Peter Karlsson Yellow - Denmark 1. Niels Kristian Iversen 2. Nicki Pedersen 3. Bjarne Pedersen 4. Hans Andersen (Capt) 5. Charlie Gjedde

I thought Kevin did a excellent job, more like he does at eastbourne and far better than he is allowed to do at Cardiff, he is a top guy, maybe a good choice of replacement for Mr Green with Kelvin on sky! He knows the sport and is clear, and why should he not want England to win, he is English and it's in England.

Might not have to if tomorrow weather forecast is correct!

Now you know where everyone hangs out!

You used to be able to lean on the fence at Arlington until one day those lovely Canterbury fans lifted it of it's hinges!, great memories.

Have a look at Vol.8 of the Days Gone by series, Tony, there is 30 mins of colur footage from Norwich on there.

I have a Eastbourne one which I didnt get until 1969, I used to have it on me pushbike, however I also have a Hastings one which must have been from 1948 or 49 as they didnt go any longer after that, also have a Westham one too. God it makes me feel old!

in it post 1st class today Ken
