moxey63 1,785 Posted May 11, 2015 (edited) For any serious fan who loves retracing the sport's history and having a reference guide to call upon, then this book is a must. The last edition was produced five years ago, so it is perfect timing and a much-needed update. Loose-leaf, 172 A4 pages, the book lists every team averages during the past quarter of a century and is meant to be a continuation of Peter Oakes' 1965-1990 edition. Alan Robertson has tried to fill up every page with details that speedway fans need to hand - league tables and results, Cup journeys, Pairs and Fours, as well as the stand-out stories. If you need details of any major domestic event, don't look any further. Price £14 and £2 postage. And while you're there... why not give the new book covering 1984 a try? In the style of the old Daily Mirror yearbooks, the 1984 book includes all British domestic details and tours the world stage to give a comprehensive rundown of what happened in speedway all of 30 years ago. Containing 130 A4 pages, a lot of work has gone into this, hence the £12 price (£2 postage). There's bound to be a space on your bookshelf for either one of these. PM me if you need further details.

Alan_Jones 1,005 Posted May 20, 2015 Mine arrived Saturday, an excellent piece of work. Brought back lots of memories reading the snippets of news between the stats. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
moxey63 1,785 Posted May 20, 2015 (edited) Thanks Alan Do you know, I had even forgotten some of those stories. I am glad you enjoyed/will enjoy the book. Would love to piece one together for the years 1946-64 (I know Peter Morrish did his) that includes similar info - scorers, cup results, snippets - the same format. There simply ain't enough reference books out there, in my honest opinion. Thanks for the kind words again, Alan Edited May 20, 2015 by moxey63 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
