  1. Spandau Ballet are reforming to tour, so you never know .....
  2. staying at the Hilton Bristol so handy for the pairs on Friday too
  3. 1 Hancock 2 Ermolenko 3 big bad Brad Oxley
  4. the problem is, Peterboro is a track where you need speed, and lots of it, and Nicholls didn't have that last night, despite what his scores at Coventry show. regarding Kennett, i never rated him as he couldn't ride big tracks, but i've seen him have some decent meetings at Peterboro in maybe the last season and a half and he can certainly ride the place well now .. IF England got to the play-off or final, then that's where i wouldn't have Kennett, i think Leszsno is still beyond him. i would have for the Boro meeting the same as was posted at the top of the thread .. Richardson Harris Kennett Bridger Woffinden
  5. QUOTE (Robbie B @ Jun 6 2009, 04:42 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Spring Classic winners 1981 Dave Jessup & Ole Olsen Ole Olsen, appealed against referee Mel Price's decsion to disqualify him from heat 12 for alleged use of a new tyre. Olsen's three points had been deducted from his score and the riders placed behind him, Gordon Kennett, Bo Petersen and Billy Sanders all advanced one place in the heat result. The Speedway Control Board Tribunal considered Olsen's appeal on May 26 and upheld his protest ordering that the original heat 12 result should stand. Consequently causing Dave Jessup and Ole Olsen to finsh level on points. Olsen waived any claim to the additionmal prize monies he should have won. i put some of the tv footage of the arguing that went on with that on youtube
  6. what's his name as my dad worked at the stadium in those years, might remember him
  7. because he'll be over with Raye in the summer for a holiday instead
  8. Due to redundancy and still no job i need to sell my speedway scrapbooks from the 1946 & 1947 seasons. there is 1 book from 1946 and 3 from 1947. i have taken pictures of just a few of the pages and can be found HERE if anyone wants any info, or wants to make a serious offer, you can get me at steve.hone@o2.co.uk
  9. Alan Rivett was another at Exeter that used a Godden, he's sitting on one in the picture
  10. i did at the end of 1987 first night using it i won a race , then in my next i picked up massive drive out of 2nd turn and broke both wrists and my arm very powerful engine but hard to ride after coming from Weslake. another well known Godden rider was Simon Wigg
  11. nah, looked so much better in his black leathers and a red and yellow racejacket
  12. is it him in the yellow leathers in THIS picture? 1986 Canterbury v Poole
  13. and to think the previous manager was quoted as saying he wasn't going to use any riders from the PL
  14. but if you don't agree with some people's opinions, you get things like
  15. to be honest, i'm looking forward to seeing him ride .. if he scores 0 then so be it, but i think that's pretty unlikely as he is on some good form at the moment and should have been in the team Monday. Kennett and Woffinden should certainly be ok at Vojens
  16. i did in the previous post, your arguments with all the GB manager threads seemed to point in one direction, never giving a valid reason for the then manager to stay, nor coming up with any possible answers to the problem .. what else are you getting at?
  17. Sharron, you've never had a valid response in any of the WTC threads other than sticking up for your mate, why do bother looking?
  18. was it also mentioned last night that Graham Jones was helping Lindgren in the pits? i thought he was part of the GB U21 setup too?
  19. would i? apparently that's all you ever did so maybe you're the expert
