Have blank Junior progs:

03-09 at Reading

 

From statistics in back of programme

Could you give me the sides as programmed for the Poole match please?

 

With thanks again to Tony Lethbridge, the files for the home junior matches are now complete. One final shout for the queries in my opening post (updated) before I publish the season file.

A final check on the averages has thrown up a discrepancy involving rides taken by Kent Noer and Keith Millard. Noer only rode in two matches, the second of which was at Eastbourne on 8/4/84. According to Speedway Star, Millard replaced Noer as a TS in heat 13, finishing fourth. I believe this is where the error lies, can anyone confirm the result of the heat?

I reckon I've taken this one as far as it'll go for now so here is the Exeter 1984 file. There are still a couple of unresolved issues which I'll continue to pursue and update the file when necessary.

Have only just seen this, Dave, thanks so much as I believe it was me that asked for it in the first place

 

Have only managed a quick look so far, but absolutely bloody brilliant

 

Andy Campbell won races against Hans Neilsen ,Shaun Moran, Chris Morton, Jeremy Doncaster, Billy Sanders and many more.....wow

 

also confirms what I have long thought....Phil Crump was the best rider bar none around the County Ground (in my lifetime)

 

And Stefan Deser...forgot all about him

 

Anyone who thinks guests are a problem in the sport these days, look at how many Exeter used this season

 

Thanks again Dave, excellent work
