So before someone comes on with a long list - what say we start at 'A' and on a daily basis see how many can be named??

 

Just a thought for a bit of fun! :D

Blimey some folk are keen.

 

Hope norbold doesn't need much sleep over the next week. In all honesty how many would there be ? Since 1928 at perhaps double figures each year (and yes I know some ride more than one year !!) it would have to be nudging four figures I'd reckon.

Hi

 

I need the information to the speedway rider's data bank because first I prepare all riders who have not ridden in british and swedish league. When I will be preparing riders of british and swedish leagues I will write clubs which the riders rode. I did it with riders of polish leagues.

 

Look at: http://www.lubusports.pl/mat05/biografia.php

 

For example:

RINAT MARDANSZIN

Kraj (Nation): Rosja (Russia)

Data urodzenia (DoB): 24.12.1963

Kluby (Clubs):

LIGA POLSKA (POLISH LEAGUE):Unia Tarnów (1992), Śląsk Świętochłowice (1995-1996), Iskra Ostrów (1997, 1999, 2002), Włókniarz Malma Częstochowa (1998), TŻ Noban Opole (2000), WTŻ Warszawa (2001)

LIGA ROSYJSKA (RUSSIAN LEAGUE) (ZSRR-USRR):Stroitiel Oktiabrskij (1991-1994), Baszkiria Ufa (1996), Lukoil Oktiabrskij (1997-2004)

 

POLISH LEAGUES (letters A-P) - 1803

Argentina 104,

Belgium 46,

Bulgaria 56,

Croatia 16,

Finland 209,

Netherland 119,

Canada 349,

Mexico 3,

Namibia 2,

Norway 117,

New Zealand - 252,

RSA 178,

Romania 60,

Hungary 116,

Italy 235

 

TOTAL=3665

 

PLEASE HELP ALL !!!!

Might be an idea to go through twominutewarning's site look at all the test matches Australia and Young Australia have raced in Britain,come back with a list of riders and then ask who is missing.A list of Australian riders is a very big task.Second only to English riders i would have thought.Scottish or Welsh riders would be outnumbered by Australians.Will gladly help
