    The 1971 season file on Speedway Researcher lists the Halifax side as

    1. Eric Boocock

    2. Greg Kentwell

    3. Dave Younghusband

    4. Dave Durham

    5. .Paul O'Neil

    6. Malcolm Mackay

    7. Terry Lee

    Heat 7 is noted as Boocock, Keen, O'Neil, Broadbank. However Halifax are not 6 behind at this point so Boocock could only have ridden as rider replacement.

    I suspect Dave Durham is at #8 but who was R/R in operation for? I also suspect Paul O'Neil actually rode at #4 with R/R at #5.

    Can anyone confirm the Halifax line-up?

    1983 Lada W.C.S.S.I. repechage heat B - confirm the line-up & result which I have as Joe Owen (W), Erik Gundersen (YB), Ari Koponen (B), 38.6 - no rider in red.

    Can someone confirm these 4 results - I'm anticipating two of them to be incorrect:

    09/08/1991 Peterborough 52 Milton Keynes 38

    27/08/1991 Milton Keynes 51 Peterborough 39

    31/08/1991 Arena Essex 62 Peterborough 28

    04/10/1991 Peterborough 47 Arena Essex 43

    And I need to cinfirm these final for/against race points totals for the Gold Cup South group:

    Arena Essex 441 - 454

    Exeter 488 - 405

    Hackney 416 - 477

    Milton Keynes 445 - 455

    Peterborough 488 - 406

    Rye House 409 - 490

    Can anyone confirm these For & Against points totals for the 2002 Conference Trophy:

    Buxton 497 - 399

    Carmarthen 477 - 423

    Mildenhall 525 - 375

    Swindon 438 - 464

    Wimbledon 410 - 483

    Wolverhampton 345 - 548

    I also require confirmation of these three fixtures, one abandoned and two postponed:

    06/09/2002 Newport v Peterborough (Conference League) - Postponed

    05/10/2002 King's Lynn Best Pairs - Abandoned (at what heat and reason if possible)

    13/10/2002 Belle Vue v Wolverhampton (Craven Shield) - Postponed

    The meeting on 16 Oct was  the 'Transatlantic Challenge'.  (originally planned for Buxton I seem to recall) featuring the American Dream team and local riders

    Scratch Main: Michael Raines (US), Josh Bates, Rocco Scopellite (US), Richard Andrews

    Handicap Main: Raines (30m), Chris Widman (20m), Eddie Castro (US) (30m), Mikey Buman (US) (30m)

    Other participants included: Dean Felton, Lee Geary

    Thanks Arnie. Buxton had a U.S.A. Style Speedway event postponed on 9th October so you're recalling well.

    The Poole ghost fixture is listed here http://www.speedwaygb.co.uk/may11 but doesn't feature in their results & scorers here http://www.speedwaygb.co.uk/news.php?extend.11043

    I'm looking for information on a couple of fixtures:

    11th May at Poole - shown on SGB site as Poole v Reserved and a result of 50-37. Who were the opponents?

    16th October at Leicester - Junior Open Championship - was it run and if so who was the winner?

  19. Posted

    My results list records this result as 39-53. The SGB website records the same result and the final CL table appears to incorporate it.

    However the 2008 Yearbook records the result as 39-54 and the league table appears to concur. The Stoke scorers are recorded as follows: Branney 13, Dore 10, Evans 8, Isherwood 7, Legg 7, Priest 6 & Kendrew 3, = 54.

    Can anyone confirm the match result?

    The majority from the actual racecards in the programmes.   They were all 100% right at the time, and I have absolutely nothing to suggest any were amended afterwards

    Thanks. There's obviously something else amiss in my file and/or calculations.

    Speedway Star w/e 3rd September states "Coventry have been beset by injury problems and have requested the postponement of all their fixtures for the next two to three weeks. Hopefully they will be able to rearrange them all before the end of the season, but if not, it is likely that Peterborough will take over their matches."

    Coventry raced 6 matches before their withdrawal:

    16/04 Coventry 12  Sheffield 6

    25/04 Birmingham 12 Coventry 6

    14/05 Coventry 8 Swindon 10

    11/06 Coventry 8 Long Eaton 10

    25/06 Coventry 12 Birmingham 6

    05/08 Swindon 15 Coventry 2

    I don't have dates for these unfortunately but the Peterborough fixtures were:

    Long Eaton 8 Peterborough 10

    Stoke 12 Peterborough 6

    Leicester 11 Peterborough 7

    Sheffield 10 Peterborough 8

    Peterborough 9 Leicester 9

    Peterborough 12 Stoke 6

    Peterborough v Halifax and Halifax v Peterborough were not raced.
