Perhaps he should have tried the Rickardson line!

Sorry mate but what planet do you come from!

Having seen Briggo and Mauger in there pomp, have to say Tony is the best rider I have ever had the privilege to watch!!!

Agree Garf most English people cannot criticise the foreign Riders about the use of English. I have no problem with Niki as a person (just as a rider)

For TV Niki is the best thing since sliced bread (I think Niki watches to much TV) As for the sport, Niki needs to take stock before he 'Kills' somone at the end of the day it's only a sport, most riders have confidance in the other bloke with the exception of Niki!

IMHO only 1 brit worth his place in the championship and it is a poor state of affairs when there is not a British rider in with a hope of wining the world crown! Perhaps as a sport we should do somthing to promote British riders ! As for the Final Crump rode his luck B Pederson Rode well on a track that suited the Danes Trick what can I say (The best rider I have ever seen) Niki a liability.

Totally Agree!

No Mark was not riding for Arena at the time! Mark is a World champ riding for arena, as is Gary Haverlock! but not an Arena World Champion!

Andy where did you buy your Rose tinted specs! For fair riding look no further than Greg Hancock, Just watched it on tape and Crump was very hard with similar moves in his first and last rides. A similar move by Niki and all hell would have broken loose. IMO not a lot of differance between the two of them. Double standards in my opinion! (then I am not a crump fan).

Did you see the loss Norman!

Nice to see West Ham get a mention!

1933 involved in abourted tour of USA 1934 rode for Hall Green (Birmingham) Rode in Star riders Final 1930 and runner up1935 World Final 36 and38 on retiring Jack turned to Horse Racing Owner/Trainer Also a Pilot completing in the Kings Cup air Race! See Speedway Pre war Year's!

No, I think he was ours!

As Norbold says Dave did not promote "the ammres" in 65 and I am afraid I seem to have no pleasant memories of him, from my time at custom house! All I have is an unpleasant name inked in on the top of a picture of him from that time! I was young and hard to please! Now Tommy price, thats another story!

Very Vernacular!

Just catching up! Sitting at the puter after a couple of tins and felt it all seemed a bit pointless! Bit like my post I suppose as I seem to have started it all of again!

no sarcasm in my post is there? even if Steve had asked you to keep quiet you already knew the answer so why bother posting? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> And why bother replying!

Try http://www.freewebs.com/customhousekid/index.htm Very much work in progess I'm afraid, Eric's write up not complete as yet will have to finish it!

No problem!

Yes, it was called bubblegum music. Buddha Records were West Ham's sponsors in 1969, so all the music played was from their Kasenetz Katz LPs (as we used to call albums in those days). The groups included 1910 Fruitgum Co., Ohio Express and the Rock 'N' Roll Dubble Bubble Trading Card Company of Philadelphia 1914 amongst others, who all joined together in one super group called Kasenetz Katz Singing Orchestral Circus. 1910 Fruitgum Company's big hit was Simon Says. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I was only 13 at the time so the memory is a bit vaugue I have been looking for some music for my website ? Now that's a thought

See http://www.1910fruitgumcompany.com/

I can remember Buddha Records And I think I know some of the tunes you mention! Can you hum them for me

I'm Saying nothing!
