P. Furniss-Can Anyone Help?

Recommended Posts

Can anyone help me out please.

 

I'm working on a Website, which hopefully will include all riders who've appeared in British Speedway since 1965 (gulp!!).

 

Can any of you Crusaders give me some 'gen on a P.Furniss who rode for you at Middlesbro on 3rd July 1969, as he doesn't appear on the Crusaders website anywhere??

I contacted the web site "stats man" for you and he came back with the following reply... :P

 

Sorry I can't shed any light on this one. My stats came from "The Complete History of the British League" by Peter Oakes and there is no mention of P Furniss in the Canterbury averages for 1969. I thought that maybe he could have been a guest but I cannot see a P Furniss with an average in 1969 for any First or Second Division team.

Many thanks for your help.

 

I'll have to see if the Speedway Star Track Review for that year shed's some light.

 

I'll let you know if i find anything so you can update your site if necessary.

You're doing well mate, and like I said all the best. Have you considered setting up the site now and uploading each year when you've completed it?

 

Just a thought (and I'm so impatient) ;-)

I have mate, problem is the HTML course doesn't finish till October :roll:

 

I'll probably do each year as i go from then, once i've got half an idea what i'm doing!

 

Trawling through old Stars etc is keeping me busy enough till then mind you.
