Aces:

Ross s moran craven mort pc smith k moran

 

Dukes:

Carter at 1 with "6 other w@nkers" making up the rest of the team.

 

Can't argue with that swindon team, though I'd be tempted to put Doyle in there.

 

Sheffield:

S Moran p Carr k Moran n Collins l Collins Wilson barge.

Interesting selection re Oxford! Unfortunately never saw Pander ride but mum remembers him as a regular visitor to the out patients local doctor's surgery (she was a receptionist there)

 

My favourite 'Budgies' team would be Briggs, Ashby, Kilby, Crump, Hunter, Stangeland, McNeil.

Today Swindon would be: M. Ashby, Adams, P. Crump, Silver, McConnell, Kilby, Nilsen

 

For Sheffield I'd probably go for riders that entertained me during a brief spell where Sheffield was the track I regularly attended: Carl Stonehewer, Sean Wilson, Simon Stead, Andre Compton, Derrol Keats, Ricky Ashworth, Andrew Moore.

 

Halifax & Belle Vue - Don't care.

 

Reading: Michanek (Boooo) Davis (Booooo) Jonsson (Booooo) Wiltshire (Boooo) Janusz Janusz Janusz Kolodziez (Booooo) Dave Jessup (Booooo) Martin Ashby (hoorayyy)

 

Oxford: Dag Lovaas, Bob Kilby, Hans Nielsen, Martin Yeates, John Davis, Jimmy Nilsen, Lukas Dryml.

Shawn Moran,Kelly Moran,Sean Wilson,Simon Stead,Andre Compton,Roman Matousek,Ricky Ashworth.

 

My Tigers team is perhaps abit modern,only Shawn and Kelly make it from the British League era.I know Sean was also around from 86 to 88 but its from 1999 that he's included.

 

Didn't include Reg or Doug as they were past their best when I really started to watch.

 

A historical best Sheffield from 1960 onwards might be....

 

Shawn Moran,Arnold Haley,Reg Wilson,Doug Wyer,Jim Airey,Clive Featherby,Sean Wilson

You could get a second team out of Belle Vue better than many other first teams!
