Many thanks for your help

Just a couple that my modern day contact couldn't help with: 06/07 Edinburgh v Glasgow (Scottish Masters) 47-31 - WAS THIS MATCH OVER 13 HEATS OR WAS IT ABANDONED FOR SOME REASON? 02/10 Trelawny 4TT won by Kangaroos - NAMES OF TEAMS AND THE FINAL SCORES 28/10 Newcastle George English Memorial Trophy winner Pedersen - WHICH PEDERSEN?

Do you know Gray's forename?

This fixture wasn't covered in Speedway Star but by all accounts a programme was produced and the meeting went ahead. Can anyone tell me who the winner was?

I have been referencing the tables as published on the SGB website so I assume they have been taken from the same source. Thanks for clearing that up.

And so I stagger manfully towards the final season in my results gathering project. First of all I need to confirm Northern League results between Birmingham and Norwich as I have a race point kicking somewhere: 08/06 Birmingham 43 - 41 Norwich and 17/08 Birmingham 28 - 55 Norwich 15/06 Norwich 58 -26 Birmingham and 20/07 Norwich 52 - 31 Birmingham

No worries. It's sorted and confirmed so that's what counts

Thanks for that. I've just spotted another strange 'un - 18th June Tamworth 49 - 35 Wombwell appears to have been staged over 14 heats whereas the rest are over 16. Any further info on that one?

As I noted in the original post - 29/10 (Cubs NOT Heathens!) v Hanley (staged at Tamworth)

According to available sources that match was Cradley v Hanley. Tamworth beat Hanley 60-35 on 1st October.

If I'm correct, the Midlands v South Cup qualifying rounds were split into two groups. The Southern group (Eastbourne, Exeter, Plymouth & Southampton) seems to be in order. The Midlands group (Cradley Heath, Hanley, Tamworth & Wombwell) however seems to be missing a fixture, namely Cradley v Wombwell. The dates I have for Heathens Cubs(!) are: 04/07 at Wombwell 04/08 v Tamworth 04/08 at Tamworth 28/08 at Hanley 29/10 v Hanley (staged at Tamworth) The final was staged 05/11 so I'm surmising that following the 29/10 fixture the Wombwell match became a dead rubber and wasn't run. But was there any attempt to run it beforehand as I have no entry for a postponed fixture?

Yes indeed the 27th, apologies for that.

These are all Rye House meetings: 06/04, 04/05, 01/06, 22/07 and 03/08 are all dates only - anything take place? 20/04 Best Pairs - CONFIRM DATE & WINNERS 15/06 Jim Coy's Team v Wally Green's Team 29-43 - DATE & RESULT 29/06 v Chalfonts - DATE & RESULT 13/07 Senior Challenge (IND) winner A.
