If not Christmas any in the new year? Three recent speedway history books. 'Shelbourne Speedway, Dublin 1950-1954' and '50 Days of Speedway, Sunderland in 1964', both on eBay. 'Walthamstow Wolves, London's forgotten speedway team', from London League Publications and on Amazon and eBay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disappointing considering what a character Bruce was/is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben91 Posted November 13, 2023 Report Share Posted November 13, 2023 The last speedway book I read was Tai’s and to put it bluntly it was rubbish. Nobody should be releasing a book mid-career. If Jason Crump, Tony Rickardsson or one of the top names from the sport of the last 20-30 years (now retired) fancies writing an autobiography they can take my money. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
