Former Crayford Riders

Recommended Posts

I said hi Shazzy, he remembers you too ......

 

 

But does anyone remember Mick Mitchell & Co. at Crayford pre-1939? Or know anything about them?

As they all say about the bird, once you've met her, you'll never forget her. :wink:  :lol:

 

Watch it you, that was way back in my drinking days at Canterbury with Knocker, Terry and Chris' sister :wink:

Which proves my point - after all that time, they still remember. :lol:

Very dissapointing Shazzy. This is a different Mike Spinks who rode for Boston, Peterborough and Crayford and was one of the best gaters in the National League. :)

Thought you got all confuzzled Shazzy girl! :lol:

 

And it sure is good to hear from the Crayford MS who I had the honour of doping & oiling for once at Canterbury. If my memory serves me correctly Mike you didn't have any with you that night and, unless the passage of time has enabled me to put some positive spin on the story, didn't you get a max?

 

Spoke to Paul Whittaker the another night - he's really keen on a Crayford reunion but would need a little notice so that he could book time off from his lorry driving job. Am trying to track down the Great Galvini amongst others now.

Out of interest.......why wasn't a new track put into the new Crayford dog track?

 

I know the season they closed, Arena Essex opened the following year, but at the time, I can not recall anybody suggesting a new track at Crayford.

 

Regards.
