There were probably quite a few of us forumites there at that final, but it's crazy to think of it being 37 years ago... Steve Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I always felt it a shame that Ronnie Moore wasn't given a ride during the 1972 World Team Cup Final which was, in essence, his last ever World Final appearance.

If I recall it was Bobby Schwartz who gave up his ride although he was on for a maximum (?). The ultimate team man. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And, of course, that victory by 'The Yanks' was dedicated to the late Denny Pyeatt. Edited May 9, 2019 by steve roberts 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm afraid Sid that was one meeting I missed although I have it on DVD and is best remembered for the 'coming together' of Ivan Mauger and John Davis and which Davis was subsequently excluded and missed out on that year's World Final.
