The White Knight Posted December 31, 2012 Report Share Posted December 31, 2012 (edited) Briggo, Adams, Ashby, Broadbanks, Brett (Brian), Crump (Phil), Kilby. I think, if I were a Swindon Supporter - that Team would do for me. Edited December 31, 2012 by The White Knight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stratton Posted January 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2013 Jason Crump one of my favourite ever riders,couldn't have him in because he only rode for 40 matches 10.50 average for that reason alone couldn't have him in front of Kilby.Same as Autrey a great rider only had the pleasure of seeing him for one season only as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grachan Posted January 16, 2013 Report Share Posted January 16, 2013 Great number ones: Phil Crump Martin Ashby Leigh Adams Swindon Legend: Bob Kilby Greatest Entertainers: Shawn McConnell Andrew Silver That's 6 that pick themselves for me. Picking the 7th is not so easy. Briggo? A total legend but before my time so it would be cheating to say him. Autrey is always more associated with Exeter for me. Jason Crump was just one season, but a major signing as it concided with dropping dow to the second tier. Very much in tune with Sidney with these. So difficult to pick a seventh - one more rider that stands out above the others that remain from my own personal experiences. Jimmy Nilsen perhaps? Yes. I'll go with Jimmy as my 7th rider but might change my mind later. Or Brian Leonard, because he used to have a shop near me, his ex-wife is my mum's cleaner and he bought my book.

EnglishRoundabout Posted January 27, 2013 Report Share Posted January 27, 2013 1. Martin Ashby 2. Geoff Bouchard 3. Jan Andersson 4. Bob Kilby 5. Leigh Adams 6. Norman Hunter 7. Clive Hitch Thats more of a favourite team...Norman Hunter at reserve could at least lift share with Geoff Bouchard, (like the old days!!)....Hitchy for his 'dive bombing' up the inside....(how often is that seen at Blunsdon nowadays) Kilby for his gating (even though he never moved at the start, he would be pulled back by the ref everytime these days...anticipation is punished) Not sure what happened to my font half way through!

keef robin Posted January 28, 2013 Report Share Posted January 28, 2013 Clive Hitch was my favourite, unsung hero with the likes of local lads Mad Wellie, Keener, and Pete Munday, great clubmen, not seen in speedway now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stratton Posted January 28, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 28, 2013 Clive Hitch was my favourite, unsung hero with the likes of local lads Mad Wellie, Keener, and Pete Munday, great clubmen, not seen in speedway now. Three of those were my favourites 'keef didn't see much of Peter not that i can remember anyway. Hitchy i was always fascinated with his inside bursts and upright riding style a very exciting rider indeed. Keen can remember like yesterday clashed with Reg Wilson once,and broke his collarbone in 1973 a double header at Blunsdon v Sheffield and Reading.
