bulldog 77 / 78 Posted February 9, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 9, 2006 I thought they were brilliant team riders - if they got in front NO ONE got past - if anyone did they - got hit off ! Langli always looked too big for his bike and Gresh was an `animal` Someone once called them the `testosterone twins` Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gresham Posted March 13, 2006 Report Share Posted March 13, 2006 Hi all,new to this forum,after a few years in the wilderness,have returned to the speedway fraternity.Really have the bug again.Started watching bulldogs in 77,then continued with Swindon up 'til 99.Now at the rebels. When i saw this thread my heart jumped for joy! Purchased the aforementioned DVD,awesome!!! Brought memories flooding back.What's even better,is me & the old man are on it! Bob Coles' infamous crash,my old man's the guy in the white bobble hat 'ducking for cover'& i'm stood next to him,all of 12 years old.Great days!!! Stevie Gresham was my childhood hero.Even used to get in the pits at Eastville,old mans mate was pit marshall! Got all the old riders autographs,Mauger,Collins,Olsen etc.Schoolboys heaven!!! Cheers Bulldog 77 78,you've made me & my dad very happy. Re;Bulldogs in Bristol. Always thought land between Yate & Bath would be suitable,just off m4 jnctn 18.No houses,easily accessed & loads of land not being used.Just golf clubs being built.Just a thought for those in the Know!!! Ciao 4 now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bulldog 77 / 78 Posted March 17, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2006 (edited) Hello Gresham, glad the website and its contents are making you happy! Its good to hear from old Bulldogs fans. Got loads of pictures here of your hero `Gresh` also emails from him from last year. - The land you mentioned is South Glos council - you got no chance.....
