  1. It must be an extremely large coffin: possibly even a sarcophagus. There are so many final nails in it, lifting it will prove impossible.
  2. Wolves make a further change by bringing in Rory Schlein as a guest for Pawlicki instead of using RR. Lasse Bjerre still listed to ride.
  3. Pawlicki is ill and CVS has his medical note. So it must be true.

    Eagles V Wolves 03/05/2014 7.30 Pm

    No Pawlicki for Wolves. Adam Skornicki guests.

  6. The Olympique began In 1966. It was held twice at Newcastle -, in 66 and 67. Barry Briggs and Anders Michanek the winners. It then moved to Wolves in 1970. Ole Olsen won it every year he was a Wolves rider : 70-75 inclusive. Ivan Mauger was a regular competitor but never won the event.

    You have no idea.

    Confirmation today (official Wolves site) that guests will be the option Wolves will take until the end of the season. New averages due this week that may broaden the club's options for September. Difficult to see an alternative to this.

    Which leaves Richard Lawson.

    12, 9, 11, 11, 10, 11. These are Adam's scores in his last 6 EL meetings. I left out bonus points to avoid further embarrassment.

    Two reasons why this wont happen.1. It weakens the team.2. Rightly or otherwise Wolves tend to offer contracts for the season, not on a day-by- day basis.

    Much better news today from the Wolves site. Nothing broken, nothing more than a wound that has been stitched. Two weeks out perhaps.

    No race jackets at Wolves? Olsen did it in 1972.

    Speedway's Best Ever Rivalries?

    I have heard this view before. Olsen did become a very good gater, he had to from 76 when he moved to Brandon! However from 70-75, especially in the first three years, he was a hopeless starter. His ability to pass however was outstanding. Dig out reports from the 71 world final or the 72 BLRC.
  17. We're both wrong, Beowulf! 20, 15 and 10. I'll have to dig out some early 70s programmes to check on what it used to be.
  18. All 16 riders have their first ride as usual, from the tapes. Thereafter heat winners start 30 yds back, 2nd places 20 yds and thirds 10 yds. Last placed riders are from the gate. Handicapping remains from heat 5 to the end. Expect a full line up tomorrow.
  19. Genius, sheer genius.
  20. Not a fixture the Bees want this week. pawlicki probably out, Wolves with nothing to lose and everything to gain. Coventry wont be riding all out for 15 heats, their minds will be on next week and bigger things. Trouble is, if (yes, big if) Wolves go through.... what message does that send to Dorset? Interesting fixture. Poole sits on the sidelines and cannot lose either way.

    What Me Miss About 70s Speedway

    Thanks folks for some wonderful memory nudges. Lots i'd forgotten. On the culinary side, a word of praise for the hot dogs at leicester. proper sausage in half a baguette with onions. had to buy one early, it took half the meeting to eat!

    World Finals Of The 70s

    But does it have film from the 1971 final? My guess is no.

    World Finals Of The 70s

    I'm assuming there is no footage from 1971: I've never found any. If there is, put me down for a copy!

  25. No Darcy Ward, Cam Woodward replaces.
