Have they changed the rules......again?

Harris guesting for Pawlicki Jr according to the Leicester website.

So, in other words, a bit like 1998 then? A combination of ink manufacturers getting rich and writer's cramp.

Are you a mind reader pal?

Not even in a very weakened league, Steve?

On a low average and decent around Monmore, Ricky Kling has to be a no-brainer doesn't he?

Beat me to it pal. Just had an identical conversation with someone about it.

Thanks as ever Dave. I'll have do go away and do some more digging.

Thanks again Dave. I have the 1980 matches so there's no need to trouble your extensive collection from that year. However, in the 1995 British League KO Cup, I have matches with the scores translated over 16 heats but the reports in the local paper at the time translate as over 18 heats. Wolves v Bradford, 15th June, 52-44. Local paper says 58-46. Bradford v Wolves, 16th July, 62-34. Local paper says 70-38. Any clues?

Thank you very much Dave. You are a scholar and a gentleman. Much appreciated.

Sorry for the delay in replying Dave. Yes, the Wolves matches will suffice. I have the details of Finals Day from 1980 so I'm not in need of that one. However, on the 1984 front, I'm missing 2 matches. 22nd September, Coventry v Wolves, Challenge, 44-34 8th October, Cradley Heath v Wolves, Midland Cup Semi-Final 2nd Leg, 39-39 Any help with those would be fantastic. The bulk of the remaining missing meetings are from 1975-80.

Thank you for the speedway reply Dave. I'm looking for details of the Wolverhampton matches in the main, preferably with heat details although I accept this may be a long shot. But I'm grateful for any help you can give. I'm missing roughly 120 Wolverhampton meetings from the re-opening in 1950. Not bad for 18 months work.

Sorry for the delay in replying. Thank you all very much for the replies. The Coventry section on the Speedway Researcher site was very helpful indeed. As was the other information. As a matter of interest, would anyone have any details of the British League 4 Team Tournaments from 1979 and 1980 and the National League 4 Team Tournaments from 1981? Any information on these would be greatly appreciated too.

Cock on post!

Thanks for the reply. The reason I'm asking is that I'm attempting to put together a complete digital record of Wolverhampton post-war racecards as all my programmes were thrown away (Don't ask). This includes league meetings, cups, challenges and everything in-between. Been doing it for over a year now but want to get it as factually accurate as I can.

I wonder if someone could help. Does anyone know when Four Team Tournaments changed to having fixed helmet colours rather than the helmet colours corresponding to their gate positions? I'm thinking more about BSPA shared events although any input would be appreciated. Many thanks.

Great post. Spot on.

I wouldn't be holding my breath on that score. Fair play to Tai in portraying himself and the sport so well. Let's hope the B.S.P.A see the big picture and use him to promote the sport properly.

And who else is available of a similar standard to Woffinden oh wise one? Maybe Wolves should ask Birmingham to postpone the meeting. Don't want to cheat the paying public do we?

Hallelujah! Been saying this since the tenants moved in!

Shame the promotion didn't listen you then eh Steve? The reality is Nermark and Ljung didn't want to come and most of the Elite League were after Michelsen. Rightly or wrongly, Miskowiak was available and willing to ride and you can only go with who's available to come. If he could've reproduced last season's form, especially his away form, he could have been a decent signing.

And therein lies the problem with Dudley riding the night after. Always the same when that happens. Poor.

Yes, that's exactly the one I was looking for. It works perfectly. Thank you very much. It's greatly appreciated.

Hi. Thanks for the reply. It was an 18 heat format. But not the test match format although they were 8 man teams.

Hi all. I'm currently compiling a list of meetings from the 1979 season. Would anyone be able to help me with the race format for the the British League Knockout Cup in that year? I seem to be struggling quite a bit with it. Many thanks.
