Split Posted February 18, 2015 Report Share Posted February 18, 2015 (edited) Back in the 60's there was a genuine Speedway Riders XI. The team shown below played a charity football match at the Firs Stadium in Norwich against a Showbiz XI which included some of the stars of the time such as Tommy Steele, Ronnie Carroll and Dave King. For the record they lost 1 - 0. Derek Boulter, Ernie Baker, Pat Flanagan, Bob Andrews, Viv Harwood, Gerry Jackson, Danny Dunton, Geoff Harris, Bob Warner, Cyril Maidment, Jim Tebby.

customhouseregular Posted February 19, 2015 Report Share Posted February 19, 2015 I organised a charity match in the late 60's between the Speedway Riders 11 and a Showbiz 11. I can't remember where it was held but I think either Wanstead or Leytonstone. Memories have faded but I recall The Speedway side losing heavily and playing the 2nd. half with 12 men!.

customhouseregular Posted February 19, 2015 Report Share Posted February 19, 2015 My mistake...was not a Showbiz 11 but a Doug Insole 11. I think c. 1969. I can't remember which charity it was for or who took part...I recall Stan Stevens playing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
