teddybear Posted August 7, 2006 Report Share Posted August 7, 2006 The young swedish rider is Linus Eklof who has been putting in some awesome performances for his swedish club and is proving to be an exciting prospect, this will be his first time racing on british soil. WIMBLEDON v SITTINGBOURNE yes you read it right, the interval will consist of a mini meeting involving the 2 clubs. We all see this as an exciting prospect with both clubs hungry for success, we hope that the loyal following of both clubs will help give the testimonial, the party atmosphere they are known for. SATURDAY 9TH SEPTEMBER pre-testimonial disco- Additional bonus for speedway fans. Mildenhall v Somerset re arranged fixture, then you can choose whether to call it a day or party on in to the night. With gp on the big screen, disco, barbecue and auction, raffle and lots more. Tickets available from 18th August or on the day. With tickets for shauns pre-testimonial disco priced @ £5 adult £2.50 under 16 and free under 5s it should be a great day/night out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DavidC Posted August 22, 2006 Report Share Posted August 22, 2006 I usually video Mildenhall home meetings but wish to use this opportunity to grab some action pics and such like so should there be anyone interested in filming this then great from my end and I guess you'll need to speak to Laurence.

romper stomper Posted August 27, 2006 Report Share Posted August 27, 2006 The rumour on the terraces today was that the meeting was being postponed due to lack of interest, could someone please clarify this for me please? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teddybear Posted August 28, 2006 Report Share Posted August 28, 2006 totally incorrect< interest for the meeting is exceeding all expectations- so whoever started the rumour is in for a very nasty surprise I'm afraid! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suzi98 Posted August 28, 2006 Report Share Posted August 28, 2006 (edited) Glad to hear that, shaun deserves a good day, and we're coming up to say thanks for being at poole (even if it wasn't for long) we enjoyed cheering him on xx Edited August 28, 2006 by sue cheney Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Main Man Posted August 29, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 29, 2006 (edited) still a few openings for sponsors for the meeting --- including being the ref's assistant for the day --get your bids in now to me at : laurencerogers@blueyonder.co.uk also rider sponsors , goggle sponsors, fuel and oil backers --full details on the website or from Lynn or me. WE will post a list of what you can still back for the meeting . Sun 10th Sept ---Shaun's Testimonial "Back with a Bang! --Mildenhall 2pm start" Edited August 30, 2006 by Main Man Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teddybear Posted August 31, 2006 Report Share Posted August 31, 2006 RIDER CHANGE Have just heard that tom p madsen is not available so will be replaced by Mark Jones , riding at number 13. Shaun is looking forward to seeing the talented Mark ride in his testimonial meeting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Main Man Posted August 31, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 31, 2006 (edited) Mark is really looking forward to taking part too --plus we have a major coup in that on stand-by we now have , for his UK debut, JAMES HOLDER ---brother of Isle of Wight sensation Chris!!! James flew in with dad Mick this week to accompany Chris on his trip to Italy for the World u-21 final and is staying on after for as many rides as possible . So James may well have his first taste of a full British meeting at Mildenhall on Sun Sept 10th in the Shaun Tacey Testimonial --watch this space for more news! *** STOP PRESS ***** Well within one hour of releasing this news I got a text of Chris Holder to say that both he and James will now not be able to do the meeting as the Isle of Wight away fixture at Newcastle has been rearranged for the same day!!! So James will now not be making his full meeting debut after all in Shaun's meeting --which is a great pity. Back to the drawing board!!

ILoveAJ Posted September 1, 2006 Report Share Posted September 1, 2006 I know this isn't really relevent but does anyone knw if Shaun is still with Janine, I got to know her really well when Shaun rode for Coventry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
