JanAndersen 822 Posted March 28, 2020 Watched bits and pieces of it last night and really enjoyed it - loved that time watching Edinburgh. Great seeing some old faces. Anyone any idea if Geoff Chandler is still floating about speedway? He was a character. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

edmon 166 Posted March 31, 2020 (edited) Tonight on EMTV-Rewind MONARCHS V SOMERSET, 2013 Join us this Tuesday, 31st March 2020, from 7:30pm as we turn back the clock to August 2013 for the Premier League match between Monarchs and Somerset! Got a Facebook account? Watch there now to join the conversation with other supporters! WATCH ON FACEBOOK Watching on a mobile device and have an AppleTV, Chromecast or Samsung Smart TV? You can watch the action on your television! Just tap here and follow the instructions. Somerset were our great rivals in the early part of the current decade and on 26th August 2013 they came to Armadale at the start of their northern tour looking for a victory. The result was an exciting match with our solid team (which had young Josh Bates guesting for Mitchell Davey) facing up to the twin threat of Jason Doyle and Nick Morris. There are two interviews in this presentation, one pre- and one post-match but the latter one is affected by a microphone problem.

ScunnyDan 335 Posted March 31, 2020 Credit where its due to the Monarchs, thank you for keeping us entertained during these times... although the Scunny league match from 2012 would be epic showing Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jenga 2,998 Posted April 1, 2020 , it just shows how much the entertainment out side of the racing is more important than the actual racing itself ! if that makes sense .. the racing was decent , one race after another was a bit of a downer tho . i would like to think that when you purchase one of the tapes up dvd,s , they have more in between stuff going on . looking forward to the next 15 mins of speedway from the tricky track ... well done embra for putting this on during the CLOSED season ..

I bumped into Geoff last year and emailed him last night to check he is doing OK. He is and sounds very cheerful. He stopped coming to Armadale at a time when his work made it awkward, and he also had a spell of ill health. He writes articles on chess now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Good to hear he's well but a shame he's not in and around speedway still. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
edmon 166 Posted April 1, 2020 (edited) When Berwick visited in Championship Shield action, they produced one of the best matches of the 2019 season. The Bandits were topping the Northern Section of the shield at the time. This show features several interviews and a dramatic conclusion! - Runtime: 41:30 Got a Facebook account?

Chris116 756 Posted April 3, 2020 My thanks to both Edinburgh and Isle Of Wight for the videos they are showing while there is no live speedway. Also looking forward to the double header from Eastbourne tomorrow. I have no doubt that other teams are also doing this but those are the three I know about and they deserve our grateful thanks for their efforts. I wonder how many away wins will feature????
