Ivan Mauger once said the 81 final was overhyped because it was the last Wembley final.  There have been several very good races in this meeting 

He probably said that because he wasn't in it!

Think that cut on his head might hinder that

A cut on the head doesn't indicate you have concussion,despite Shovlar's medical assessment from a hundred odd miles away.

I was there. A decent meeting by Wembley's standards, but tonight has been excellent.

Me too... I've heard a few people saying it wasn't all that recently, but as with so many things in sport, you had to be there

Title has now been decided. Only a massive croak for Panthers will lose this. As a neutral it’s a shame BV didn’t get a ten point lead but Panthers were not harmed at all by Andersen injuring himself. They had the riders to cover.

Nicholls turned the clock back and rode a blinder on a track he doesn’t usually ride well. 

It would be great for Bjarne to hang up his leathers with a league title, and we can give him a proper send off at Poole at the end of this month.

He did what he wanted to do by ‘79

There were only a handful of top races at Wembley that night but that’s all people remember
