There was a bunch of us who followed the Witches home and away late 70s, early 80s - and many different names and nicknames were used for riders and teams. KL were called the Deadbeets (after the sugar beet factory behind the first/second bend was demolished). Those of us who watched speedway then saw the last heyday of the sport. Good one.. My first meeting was as an 8 year old in 72. Great atmosphere in those days. Propper local derby's. I even remember that there was a few police in the stadium for at least one Ippo vist. Maybe early to mid 80's. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bash 496 Posted May 16, 2022 When I was watching the GP Saturday and Holder was involved in a crash, I thought he would use it as an excuse to not turn up at Foxhall. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TTT 1,227 Posted May 16, 2022 Sheffield to win this and I would've predicted them to take 3 league points even if Starke was riding. Both of Sheffield's reserves know Foxhall quite well, Ellis should be happy as a pig in sh!te around Foxhall considering his electric gating ability. Cook could also cause the Witches a few problems from the easy No.2 position. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
