daveallan81 330 Posted January 25, 2019 I'm looking for information on a couple of fixtures: 11th May at Poole - shown on SGB site as Poole v Reserved and a result of 50-37. Who were the opponents? 16th October at Leicester - Junior Open Championship - was it run and if so who was the winner? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Buxton had a U.S.A. Style Speedway event postponed on 9th October so you're recalling well.
