Ivan Mauger got the move to Belle Vue that he demanded in 1969 but Mike Parker ultimately got little in return.. and it took the feet from a previously successful track. Read about it in

Surprising that it took until 1969 for Ivan to move away as the catalogue of disagreements between the pair started in 1964.

Money can be a great healer, though...

According to the Beatles' song, 'Money Can't Buy Me Love' and there was certainly no love lost between them.

Perhaps Parker was like, "I Need You", so "We Can Work it Out", but Mauger was, "Hello, Goodbye", followed by "I'll Be On My Way"...
