Tigerblade 221 Posted September 10, 2006 (edited) GORDON KENNETT - on coping with diabetes, thoughts on becoming a Dane, his ex-wife, his fall out with Ole Olsen, his brothers and nephew, etc, etc. DEFUNCT TRACK – HALIFAX (The Shay as it looks today - very sad!) Looking forward to that - I actually went to see the Blades reserves play there in the mid 90's, purely because it was at the Shay (Leeds were playing reserve games there at the time). It hadn't been made into a "proper" four-sided football ground then, and I had to walk across to the other side, around the pitch, to the coffee bar, and the 3rd/4th bend was still there. I was full of it afterwards, telling people that I had actually walked on the track!! Will be interested to read the Gordon Kennett interview, used to like him. I was only in London near White City a couple of weeks ago, you know how certain places put you in mind of certain people - well, whenever I think White City, that means Gordon Kennett!!

Drew 0 Posted September 14, 2006 My copy landed through the door today. Had a brief glance through it and I have got to say that it does look a lot better with the splash of colour now included. I look forward to reading it in more detail over the weekend. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brian L 2 Posted September 15, 2006 Much Better use of the colour pages this issue. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tigerblade 221 Posted September 15, 2006 Mine came yesterday, good decision that I put it in my bag for the speedway, with our meeting being delayed It was good that the pictures of the Shay were in colour, whenever we went we used to stand on the fourth bend banking, so it was great to see one of the pictures taken from that viewing point.

REBELS77 4 Posted September 20, 2006 Really enjoyed the Gordon Kennett chapter,still my all time hero in the sport also even though sad to read was nice to have a piece writen on Denny Pyeatt,I was at Hackney on the night of his accident its something you dont forget and I think its right we remember riders who have paid the ultimate price entertaing us.
