daveallan81 330 Posted December 10, 2016 These are the outstanding queries for 1962, boosted by the lack of a Southampton file to work from: 3rd April Southampton v Swindon Rained Off Confirm date & rain-off 8th April Rye House Promoter's Trophy Rained Off Confirm date & rain-off 1st May Southampton Pride Of The South Trophy Winner Dick Bradley Confirm date & winner 22nd May Southampton South Of England Championship Winner Bjorn Knuttson Confirm date & winner 8th June Wolverhampton W.C.Q.R. Tie W. Templeton/G. Warren/N. Hunter/T. Redmond Speedway Researcher file reports this as a 4-way tie (on 13 points) but Wolverhampton programme reports a three-way tie. Which is correct? 3rd July Southampton W.C.Q.R. Winner Alby Golden Confirm date & winner 22nd July Eastbourne v Poole (Challenge) Result or fate of meeting - possibly not staged? 31st July Southampton v Continentals 52-44 Confirm date & result 8th August Norwich Pride Of The East Rained Off Confirm date & rain-off 9th August Middlesbrough v Newcastle (Challenge) Was this the Tyne-Tees Trophy 2nd Leg? 11th September St. Austell v Exeter v Plymouth Result or fate of meeting - possibly not staged? 25th September Southampton v National League Select 50-27 Confirm date & result Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BL65 658 Posted December 11, 2016 (edited) 3rd April Southampton - Persistent rain resulted in the meeting being postponed just before start time. 8th April Rye House - Following overnight rain, another heavy downpour as the meeting was about to start resulted in cancellation. 1st May Southampton - Dick Bradley and Cyril Roger both scored 13 points, with Bradley winning a run-off. 22nd May Southampton - Knutson won with a 15 point maximum, with Ron How second on 13. Ove Fundin, Barry Briggs and Tony Lewis scored 11 to tie for third place. 8th June Wolverhampton - There was a 4-rider tie for first place, with Willie Templeton, Graham Warren, Norman Hunter and Trevor Redmond all scoring 13 points.
