Ommer Mon Posted July 8, 2014 Report Share Posted July 8, 2014 Who do you think was the best ever pairing? Three Cradley entries for starters. Penhall and Schwartz - telepathy and hand signals whilst constantly switching lines inside and outside. The first few matches of the 1980 season were a joy to behold as they piled up the 5-1s before Bobby left for Reading. Hamill and Hancock - Sheer reliability especially at Monmore Green when it mattered. Must have driven Sam and Ronnie mad! Phil Collins and Alan Grahame - The engine room of many a successful Heathens team with Al on the white line and Phil blasting round the boards. How about PC and Mort at Hyde Road? Never seemed to matter that they couldn't gate. The outcome was nearly always assured. I have to stick with the Heathens though and go for Penhall and Schwartz.

R87 Posted July 8, 2014 Report Share Posted July 8, 2014 Corey and Ermolenko for Wolves. Maybe even Ermolenko and Staechmann, whose team riding had to be seen to be believed at times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SCB Posted July 8, 2014 Report Share Posted July 8, 2014 Scott Nicholls and Billy Janniro. They'd head into the first bend looking for each other and moved any opponents out of the way. We used to laugh that it was like meeting the unstoppable force and the unmovable object all at once for some riders. Great pairing, as proved by the fact Billy would often score 2 or 3 bonus points a meeting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

waiheke1 Posted July 9, 2014 Report Share Posted July 9, 2014 pc and mort for me. Statistically its got to be the danish pairing of hans and Eric. The moran brothers were great to watch together for usa or sheffield. And the collins/grahame combo for cradley and jorgensen/miller at coventry decent shouts. But for team riding, understanding, consistent brilliance in heat 13 and sheer spectacularness to watch nothing can beat collins and morton round hyde rd. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
