The Third Man

He got the two extra rides at Somerset because he obviously deserved them, i dont know if he did or not on Thursday as i couldnt attend, if he deserved an extra ride he shouls have got one, if he didnt deserve one he shouldnt have got one. he shouldnt have been punished like a school boy

do you know why "the miscreant of last thursdays heat 15" didnt want to take the ride? if you do then why do you expect a rider to go out in a meaningless ride when he expected his engine to blow if he did. as it was he was faced with a bill to get the engine serviced before sundays meeting at glasgow did you go to edinburgh and see the same rider doing his best for the team when he was no where near fit? rather than getting full marks for what they did it seems a very childish act to me, no wonder riders dont ever return to sheffield when they leave, except the ones who wont improve and we keep welcoming them back with open arms,because they want to ride for sheffield, wonder if thats because when they are not at sheffield they end up with two or three teams a season? he must have spent the money judging by thursday and friday night as well, nice to see the sheffield promotion rewarding him for keeping his equipment up to scratch, he must wonder why he does it

Heard a rumour last Thursday that Schramm had retired

Have to go for Hyde Road, Halifax and Sheffield

Ricky Ashworth 2002 to 2011 one club man until he was forced out

One of best, if not the beast, rider i have seen ride for Sheffield, left the sport far too early

Not sure any of them knew what was happeninmg on the last bend to be honest, but if branford meant to get garrity to the front it was a marvelous ride, still not sure he meant it. Dont think i have ever seen a race where three riders changed position on virtually the last bend though

stan stevens, and alan sage i think rode again after

happy to be of help

Hereward Pike from sheffield i think

Sheffield, not one of our better signings

Guy rode for sheffield 68 / 69 and doncater in 69

As far as iknow bob paulson only had one league team, sheffield as did bengt larsson

could the sheffield one be dave baugh?

anybody mentioned doncaster, a retail park is built on the former site, just off york road.

Hyde Road then halifax sheffield, leicester, cradley and KL in the 70s / 80s in no particular order wembly in 81 was very good as well

i believe phil white is a commercial pilot, quite frightening with the number of engine failures he used to have

or even a cardiff based event where the world championship was up for grabs

coatbridge in 68 & 69 wasnt it?

in the sheffield pics, the unknown is bent larsson, i think and the two riders against wimbledon are larsson and haley great pics

Airey, the best rider to ride for sheffield
