:neutral: I've checked all sources available to me & I'm stumped - what were the line-ups (with scores if possible) on 29th August 1977 when the Wizards lost 38-40 at home to Glasgow?

 

Thanks in advance B)

Cant be often that the away team has two non scorers and the home team none and it's an away win!!!!!!

Some interesting Glasgow names there.Mick McKeon and Merv Janke would both ride for Halifax a few years later.Graham Dawson was badly injured at Barrow just a short time after this meeting,while Nicky Hollingworth(note spelling!) was the younger brother of the still riding Rob!!!

Also Chris Julian who rode for Glasgow in 1964!!!!

I remember Richard Evans. He was a Swindon second-halfer at the same time as the legendary Melvin Soffe. I think he was part of the promotion team at Swindon a while back too.
