Talking of Eastbourne, let's not forget the fantastic Polish pair of Jozef Kafel and Jan Puk, who rode together against Sheffield in 1980. Wilbur Lamoreaux and Miny Waln rode together a few times for the Dons in 1937, Edited August 23, 2021 by chunky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arnold Stolting and Fritz Niemeck came over in 1930, although I don't believe either made the team, but Gustav Kellner did make a few appearances the following year.

Yes remember that Steve, i remember Toni Kasper getting a paid maximum there to.Also Sigalos scored a full 15 from reserve in 1979( he never met Kilb though so unusual) the biggest shock though was Einar Kylingstad getting a full 15 for Kings Lynn at the Abbey.Back to the topic Autrey/ Gresham 1980 Swindon.

Met him once such a nice bloke, Gresh certainly kept Holloway on his toes in there partnership.That partnership was one of the few that could beat Grahame/ Collins Cradley Gresh was one of my favourites at Swindon nobody messed with him that’s for sure. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, the OP stated "other than England, Australia, Sweden etc" (which I would take to include Denmark), so I think we should just focus on the minor speedway nations... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
