Tigerblade 221 Posted August 18, 2004 Probably an obvious one, but Nicky Allott can be seen helping Adam. Phil White attends Owlerton now and again, although I haven't seen him for a while. Did Ian Jeffcoate ride for Scunthorpe? He still comes to Owlerton as well. Hope to get along at some time, it's only about 40 minutes away for me Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
spin king 1,923 Posted August 25, 2004 Yes I think Ian Jeffcoate did have a few meetings for Scunny, but spent most of his career at Stoke. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Scunny Stag 72 Posted November 8, 2004 (edited) Someone said Julian Parr was at the practice session yesterday. Didn't see him myself but Derek Richardson has been several times with his son Scott, who is just starting out with speedway. Jamie Hildreth, who did a small number of meetings for the Stags, also attended the first session and suggested that he and Andy Walker, a second-halfer in the early 80's from Hull, were going to make a one-off return to the track. Of course Rob Woffinden is in Perth, Australia and may come back to these shores for a summer if his son, Tai, wants to give it a go over here. Then there was an earlier thread about Arthur Browning still racing a Jawa road bike on the Isle of Man this summer.
