Season 1980 queries

Hi there.

As I am nearing the end of my research into the 1980 season, can anybody help with the following queries - I require confirmation from a marked programme from the actual meeting (not copied from the Speedway Star). 

1. Mildenhall Anglia League Junior Championship -17 September. According to Speedway Star and Speedway Mail - Linden Warner as a reserve scores 2 points, 1 in heat 1 and the other in heat 19, whilst the Yearbook states Warner just scored 1 point, both the Speedway Star and Speedway Mail say 2 points. If it is 1 point in which heat was it scored ?

Also did Tony Brooks or Chris Tritton ride in this meeting ? Yearbook states Tritton rode, whilst both the Speedway Star and Speedway Mail state it was Brooks.

2. Oxford v Edinburgh - 21 September. I need clarification in which heats Chris Turner was excluded under the 2 minute rule as these are not mentioned in the heat details published in the Speedway Star, or on the Speedway Researcher website. Turner was scheduled to appear in heats 3, 7 and 13 but in which 2 heats was he excluded ?

Hopefully someone can help.

Thanks for reading.

Steve

He was excluded from Heat 3 for 2 mins and replaced by Brian Collins.

He was excluded from Heat 7 for 2 mins and replaced by Roger Lambert.

He was simply replaced by Brian Collins in Heat 13.
