1971

[steve19620]

Hi there

 

As part of my research into the 1971 season i am looking for clarification regarding the following meetings.

 

The heat results don't tally with the points scorers published in the Speedway Star.

 

I would be grateful if anybody can clarify the following queries I have:

 

6/7 West Ham V Wembley (BL1): Dave Jessup finishes ahead of Tony Clarke in Ht 3 or 7 ?

6/8 Wolverhampton V Poole (BL1): Dave Baugh replaced Jon Erksine in Ht 3 or 9 ?

6/10 Poole V Reading (Ch): Richard May is 2nd in Ht 2 or 12 ?

11/9 Kings Lynn V Wolverhampton (BL1): Bob Humphreys finishes ahead of Malcolm Simmons in Ht 3 or 5 ?

 

Hope you can help.

 

Thanks for reading

a rare sunny tuesday evening at custom house that i remember well. the wembley team contained jessup, harrfeldt, clarke and leonard all ex west ham riders. it was no suprise that it was an easy away win for the lions.
