RobMcCaffery Posted April 13, 2006 Report Share Posted April 13, 2006 Actually Shaky - YOU are only half right! Clkive Fisher did used to do the commentary but Rob McCaffrey did it too - as well as presenting the programmes! And there really is no need to be obnoxious!!!!! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Just noticed this thread via Google - okay a long time after the event but who said I was ever on time? In case anyone ever did wonder what the truth of this was, here it is from the horse's mouth. I was the original Screensport speedway presenter from the station's start in 1984 through to 1986, with Edwin Overland also providing several commentaries. The station nearly folded in 86 so I got well clear. Clive Fisher was hired to take over from me with Lee Richardson's mum and John Chaplin also getting involved after my departure. To answer the question about which track I was working at, earlier in the thread, following the Screensport days I worked at Rye House 1989-93 & 1999 plus Mildenhall & Boston in 2000 and finally Sittingbourne 2003-5. Currently i am staying well clear of it all and enjoying the odd meeting as a pure supporter again. Rob McCaffery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemini Posted April 13, 2006 Report Share Posted April 13, 2006 Thanks Rob. Just wondering now if I stick "Norbold's Hole" into google whether it will be able to resurrect the thread we have been looking for recently. Actually thinking about it I think I'll pass on that as who knows what sort of topic it would bring up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
