Had I gone for 8 I would have included Jack. I did think Parker over Louis or Jessup, but as I never actually saw Jack but did follow Dave and John, I gave them the edge.

What a great Team that would have been. :t::approve: :approve:

 

I think I would have had Malcolm Simmons in the Team ahead of John Louis.

What about Nigel and/or Eric Boocock?

Simon Wigg

Tommy Price

All great Riders - but crucially - would they improve the Team selected by CHR.

 

I am not sure they would.

I was tempted to include Malcolm and Norman Hunter but as an old "Hammer" might have been accused of bias.

I wouldn’t have Dave Jessup. His machinery was not up to scratch.

Ooops!!!

 

:oops::oops::oops:

 

Freddie would be No1 for my Welsh team.

 

I decided to start with seven World Champs as my England team. If Havelock or Loram didn't come up to expectations, they'd be replaced pretty quickly by Jack Parker and Eric Langton / Tom Farndon for the second match. :wink:

 

All the best

Rob
