norbold 7,167 Posted December 21, 2003 Question for Sunday: The "Southern Rovers" rode in the Southern Area League of 1956, name the location of their home track ? They didn't have a home base. That's why they were called the Rovers. By the way, Jim, what's the answer to your question? The suspense is killing me! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

frigbo 524 Posted December 21, 2003 On a similar theme. Who was the German who sounded like a flame affected smelly floor covering?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grachan 7,364 Posted December 21, 2003 That would be former World Finalist Scorch Pongcarpet then. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grachan 7,364 Posted December 22, 2003 Looks like nobody's going to give a proper answer to Frigbo, so how about a clue? In similar vein again: which Norwiegen former Cradley & Oxford rider sounded like he was getting on a bit, and had soft, light feathery material up his jacksie?

Ex Leicester and Hackney, early 80's, and not very good! Swindon nearly signed him in '83 The only Cradley and Oxford Norwegian i can think of is Ulf Lovaas.
