Oh yeah,,, I forgot about PK,,, he was the mutts nuts 

 

Loram and Boyce were also fantastic,, unfortunately we got them both on the last knockings of their careers

 

 

Some riders do only seem to have one good meeting at certain tracks,,, eg Bobby Miskoviak,,, think it was 21 at lakeside and 17 at Wolves,, or the other way round,,,, never scored that many again if you add all his visits together

There were riders that were always good at Foxhall,, but never got a look in for a signing. Bo Brhl,, Jason lyons,, Adam Shields to name a few 

One rider we should have signed back in the day was Bobby Ott

One of my all time favourites.. 

Saw him once "fall off", but kept hold of the bike whilst he slid along the track, and then, all in one motion without stopping, lifted the bike up with him astride it, and rode off down the home straight..

Unfortunately Ronnie Correy had seen him "fall off" from a few yards behind so had laid his bike down in a similar slide to Bobby to avoid contact.. 

Correy waved to the ref who stopped the race and excluded Bobby..

He was not impressed...:D

Last heat of the season 1993, Monmore Green.... B)

He rode a lot of tracks well, IMHO a very under-rated rider - always good at Owlerton and of course who couldnt forget his fantastic last bend pass on TRick in 2000 British GP at Coventry!!

PK was the dogs doo daas and the best of the lot. Never would have gotten him away from Wolves either though unfortunately. 

Apart from the season he had at Peterborough and then a couple at Lakeside B) (but yes he was a Wolves man through and through really!) Great rider and great guy too - he was very popular down at Arena
