Thanks Philip for the update about my Speedway Star delivery today. I will have to be ready for it to come early then next week then! Good luck with the new delivery system and I hope it works for you.

Mine came through today with no plastic envelope or paper address sheet. I have no idea how it got here as the normal post cane 2 hours or so later via the Royal Mail. Strange or what? Is there a new delivery method in the Cradley Heath/Dudley area?

Mine not delivered so far this week. Have to admit that's the 1st time it has ever been delayed until the following week. I hope it is here Monday! Have to say that the post in the DY2 area this week started to peter out towards the end of the week as I have yet to get other things that I was expecting Thurs., Fri., Sat. this week!

Thanks for the answer Aceslider but the SGB/SGP site have this: Bartosz Zmarzlik 20, Fredrik Lindgren 18, Jason Doyle 16, Tai Woffinden 14 and that is why I asked.

I was going to ask this question as I do not understand how you can get 16 pts in the meeting and 2nd in the Final and end up with Tai's total! Should he have got 18 WC points not 14 WC points as he was second?

Philip that's a problem then as I normally get mine on Thursday and it has not shown up today!

Is this Thursdays late as I have not had my copy for the first time in ages?

Bernie should have won that night!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It was probably a better night than when Bruce won as Bernie was our real hero of the terraces back in the day!!!!!!!

I would have thought that 200 Speedway Clubs have shut since 1928 but that amounts to about 180 tracks during the same period due to second teams running at the same venue then shutting.

Our top 5 are either required elsewhere or crocked!

Bernt (Bernie) Persson!!!!!!! The best that Cradley ever had in it's entire history. He carried them through the lean times in the BL and managed to get to World #2 in '72 to boot! As we sang many a night that Indianerna wants him but he can't go back there in the good old days at Dudley Wood! World Class before Cradley fans knew what that was in a Cradley bib and then had the Dan McCormick years even until today!!!!!!!!!!

Done!

Thanks for the details re parking. I had wondered if I could park on the shopping centre as I do when I go to Perry Barr. Do you have to put something in the car window or just park?

What is the parking like at Leicester?

If Will clicks he should give you a great ride. Check what he did with NL Cradley over 8 years and what some of his ex riders are up to now. Great guy to boot. You can't keep him to yourselves tho' as we Midland 'Ommers need him too in the Trophy!
