22 May 1948 - Edinburgh 29 Newcastle 55 - Wilf Jay, Alec Grant and Charlie Spinks all scored 12 point maximums.

1 minute ago, Grachan said:Aren't averages always worked out that way? Or are you saying that TS rides were not included in the number of rides but the points are still included in the total, thus giving a falsely high average?
The latter
-
7 hours ago, norbold said:And according to Peter Oakes History of British League it was 8.867!
The averages for that publication for 1965 only are incorrect as they assume each rider had four rides in every meeting they rode in during the season. Tactical sub rides for example are ignored although points scored in them are included.
-
Baffled by this. Jack Chiswell died in 2001 when he was 93 years of age!!! Certainly not around in 2019 when he would be 111 years old. Take a rest Gustix you’re posting a lot of incorrect things recently.

1 hour ago, BL65 said:In 1960 the British Semi-Finals formed the qualifying stage for the World Final, with riders appearing in 2 out of 4 meetings at Wimbledon, Coventry, Southampton and Norwich. There were no PL riders participating at this stage.
Jack Scott of Plymouth scored 2 at Wembley in the British Final in 1961, but also doubled up with Southampton in the NL that year.
In 1962 the British Semi-Finals formed the qualifying round for the World Final, with riders appearing in 3 meetings at Wimbledon, Southampton and Norwich. There were no PL riders participating at this stage.
Doug Templeton was the sole PL representative in 1963, when the British Semi-Finals formed the qualifying stage for the World Final, again held over 3 rounds at Wimbledon (where he scored 1 point), Southampton (1) and Norwich (0).
Brian Craven of Newcastle then in the PL reached the semi final stage in 1962.

18 hours ago, Tsunami said:Correct. He rode as a guest with Willie against I think Wolverhampton in our first meeting in our opening season in 1961. 40 -38 defeat I think.
48-30 win in a challenge match with three Edinburgh riders as guests. As well as Willie Dick Campbell also guested. It then took them ten weeks to win another meeting when they beat Wolverhampton again 53-25.

8 minutes ago, WalterPlinge said:Big mistake from the Speedway Star if they're not going to include full scorers of all matches.
Probably the main reason for buying it is for the back few pages to easily check the scores of various riders I follow, but don't get to see on a regular basis, and also to have the scores for future reference.
Might cancel the Star now and just print the relevant completed racecards from the BSPA site.
Oh dear! No heat times and no match reports. I’ll have to seriously consider whether it will be worthwhile to renew my subscription in a few months time if things do not improve. Also seem to have lost all local track reporters.

Thanks for this. Pleased you like it.
