The Doctor... 1,478 Posted March 22, 2015 Sadly you cannot, but they lose a lot of impact when called up IMO. Don't you think I have a valid reson to HIDE - OP does not want a message link with me, why should I put answers up to his query. And you have answers to his question then ? I personally doubt that, but will wait to see if you genuinely do in due course.. Perhaps this should be making you wonder why yet another member has you on block.. For what it's worth, i've had a look through some old yearbooks i have tucked away for 1988-91, and can find no mention either. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iris123 20,986 Posted March 22, 2015 Possibility could be to either ask a long time Glasgow fan like Paulco for instance directly or maybe even better one of the other riders in those races via facebook? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

John Leslie 3,213 Posted March 23, 2015 could ask Starman to ask Jerran Hart......when he gets out of course 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
waiheke1 4,295 Posted March 23, 2015 Have to say my first thought on reading this thread was that Gustix had decided he needed to out do star man's efforts on the Jerran hart thread, and by jove he may have managed it. Hurrah! Shame for Dave allan that no one seems to have answers as Dave is one of the most helpful blokes on here. Wish I could have helped Dave, but like others can't find anything (of relevance). 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I totally endorse that comment whka1. Dave always seems to be helping folk with information. I am glad you mentioned him in that way. :approve: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
waiheke1 4,295 Posted March 24, 2015 Oldace - as a belle Vue fan I was hoping you could clear a couple of things up for me. do you know the surname of the rider called declan who I now understand was sponsored by the Eccles tourism board? And were Peter and Louis actually cars? I might need to revisit my old programmea as this thread has raised a lot of queries. was John Titman a real name, a description of John or some kind of sponsorship deal? 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

waiheke1 4,295 Posted March 25, 2015 A not very amusing reference to an Australian rider who put far more into speedway than, as I see it, you have. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Titman Stefan Kuntz put more into football than I did but....anyway, you started it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
