Vicar Posted September 19, 2022 Report Share Posted September 19, 2022 Hello, I'm looking for final standings of Provincial League Riders Championship in 1936. I know that there were several qualifying rounds on the tracks of the teams from Provincial League. However I just get info that the overall winner was George Greenwood. I cannot find anywhere whole standings or at least top3 - neither on wiki or on SpeedwayResearcher. Can anyone help me? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was absolutely nothing in those years, the next title after the 1936 Nottingham came at Birmingham in 1946, Walthamstow 1950 (Div3), Cardiff 1951 (Div3), 1954 BV (Div2) then the SAL riders Champs in the late 50's before the PLRC and then BLRC came in.

andout Posted September 25, 2022 Report Share Posted September 25, 2022 (edited) OK so according to my Nottingham Final Round programme the scores from the previous four rounds are as follows. Greenwood 45, Price 44, Goulden 40, Dallison 39, Bravery 34, Dook 29, Shepherd 29, Hart 25, Hobson 23, Jones 23,Blain 22, Wise 22, S Hart 17, Collins 10, Gregory 7. My final round programme is incomplete but the full results are on Speedway researcher so just add them together as norbold has already provided.  The four previous rounds were at Bristol, Plymouth, Liverpool and Southampton.
