Didn't include Nordin in my Newport list as he only spent one season there-a standout in Newport's poor 1966 season however. BTW re Swedish riders-the first World final I attended was 1965 so got to see Knutsson's only win. Glad Chunky's post points out that Newport is not forgotten= "Newport has a Speedway team that is our pride and joy" "They're led by Alby Golden and he's backed by six good boys" etc etc. To the tune of John Brown's Body!!!!
