Nigel Posted June 30, 2008 Report Share Posted June 30, 2008 Thank you Nigel - and Mr.Cradley By the way, there is ONE question I would never ask a Cradley man ... "Can you tell me the way to Wolverhampton Speedway please?" Like asking the executioner to cut of your head Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knowle Posted June 30, 2008 Report Share Posted June 30, 2008 Hi Knowle, Slightly off topic, I've just got back from Bristol, stayed there the weekend and did Somerset and Cardiff meetings. This morning I bought the book "Bristol Bulldogs 50 Greats," would you believe in Asda ! Anyway, sorry if I misled but I new Buck Whitby was in the '48 team but could not remember his name, and thought it early '49 and he may have been replaced by 'Lammy' later on. Sorry to all if I caused any confusion but I was only nine then and didn't even know where Birmingham was, I was just starting to watch speedway and follow my local third division team No need to apologise! The confusion I referred to was the fact that in downloading the picture it needed further expansion otherwise the 2 riders on the right did not appear at all. We appear to be the same age and began watching at the same time. Was the third division club Tamworth by any chance? I have a lot of cine shot at Birmingham, Cradley and Tamworth in early 1950s. Sad to think that in a very few years it was all gone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
