  1. the individual scores adds up to 47- come on Grachan !!!!
  2. You could do it and PM me to see if you have it right
  3. A friend of mine has found this quiz in a 1985 Reading programme. I have no idea who set it but is there no end to this mans talents Does anyone want to exercise their brain box during this lockdown ? Racers line up was 1 John Davis 2 Tim Hunt 3 Jan Andersson 4 Mitch Shirra 5 Per Jonsson 6 Mark Chessell 7 Malc Holloway Quiz read IN a fictitious home British league match the Racers won 46-32. Fill in the riders score chart given that. The Racers rode as programmed(no tacticals or reserve substitutions used) The opposition only won heats 2,4 and 8 and only John, Jan and Per won races for the Racers. The opposition recorded one 5-1 in heat 8 and one 4-2 in heat 2. the Racers recorded three 5-1`s in heats 5,10 and 12 also four 4-2`s in heats 3,6,9 and 13. John top scored with twice as many as Mitch, who scored twice as many as Mark. Tim fell in his 1st race and was excluded. Malc`s engine seized in his 1st race. The reserves scored only 3 points. There is only one possible score chart layout. The league format in 85 was 13 heats heat 1 1 2 V 1 2 heat 2 6 7 V 6 7 heat 3 5 4 V 5 4 heat 4 3 6 V 3 7 heat 5 5 4 V 1 2 heat 6 1 2 V 3 6 heat 7 3 6 V 5 4 heat 8 2 7 V 2 7 heat 9 5 4 V 3 6 heat 10 1 2 V 5 4 heat 11 3 7 V 1 2 heat 12 1 4 V 3 5 heat 13 3 5 V 1 4
  4. It has already in South America- Brazil and Ecuador especially hit hard.
  5. Certainly Goldvod was fairly easy with a BACS payment(under £30 for the 6 months) I`m sure you could google Polish TV in the USA and probably some suggestions will be on forums etc.
  6. 90 odd matches over 3 seasons- hardly an unknown.
  7. There are always " small rivers " (Phil has asked me not to use the other word) however they can be a bit iffy. For the last couple of seasons i have taken out a 6 month subscripition with Goldvod. which has Eleven Sport and N Sport. A friend of mine also recommends POLonTV, which i think could be dearer than Golvod.
  8. Surprised you don`t remember Terry https://wwosbackup.proboards.com/thread/2015/terry-mussett I knew Terry and Dad(big Tel !) very well in his Reading days.
  9. I have the video of the 1993 4 team final somewhere. It was the Anglia programme. I cannot find the meeting anywhere on you tube.
  10. Sportowefakty article- who said there is no money in Speedway !!!! " Three-time world champion, associated for years with Betard Sparta Wrocław, flew to the capital of Lower Silesia by a private jet. His teammates Daniel Bewley and Max Fricke took on board with him." photo https://sportowefakty.wp.pl/zuzel/881482/zuzel-zagraniczne-gwiazdy-zaczynaja-kwarantanne-w-polsce-mistrz-woffinden-przyle
  11. I`m pretty sure that Anglia TV filmed it for their weekly speedway programme- if my memory serves me right Keith Huewen did the interviews including the team manager of the winning team !!
  12. I came across information on this Kent track by accident. The stadium staged some Speedway in 1931 and 32 and in 1969 a demonstration was put on to try and allow racing again at the venue. In fact the team rode 2 away matches before being denied permission to use the venue and ended up at Romford. Did anyone attend those council demonstrations ? http://www.defunctspeedway.co.uk/Rochester.htm
  13. New Sportowefakty article today- Google translation Currently 2020 PZM Warsaw FIM Speedway Grand Prix of Poland appears in the official FIM calendar from August 8. It is known that the competition at PGE Narodowy in Warsaw cannot be played without an audience, because it is unprofitable due to the very high costs of arranging the artificial track (about a million zlotys), renting the facility and licenses. The entire Grand Prix cycle does not have to take place in Poland, because there are still Danish or Swedish locations, but the head of some activists is thinking about distributing medals in the second half of October at the stadium in Warsaw, where weather conditions will not play a key role due to full roofing of the object. At FIM, they can't imagine a situation in which this year we wouldn't have the Individual World Champion selected in sporting competition. As we have determined, a scenario in which the tournament would be played in Vojens (12 September) would not be excluded, for the next week we would move with the cycle to Malilla in Sweden, where there are no strict restrictions on gatherings even now, and in the autumn complete loosening of the situation in sport, and another slot - 26 September would be a possible reserve date (e.g. for Wrocław, because the chances of riding in August with supporters are negligible). The series would end with Toruń - October 3 and Warsaw (October 17 or 24) competitions. Today nobody in PZM wants to confirm this information. For now, tickets for the event scheduled for August 8 are still valid, and there are not too many fans' questions about returns. The tickets were sold subject to the organizer's right to change the date of the competition, for example due to circumstances beyond PZM's control, which are certainly the effects of a pandemic. According to the so-called By the anti-crisis law, the organizers of competitions in Wrocław, Toruń and Warsaw have 180 days to make refunds for purchased tickets, if the events were not to take place at all. Theoretically, they could also transfer tournaments to 2021, and then the tickets would remain valid. Certainly for some fans, the ticket to the Polish Grand Prix round is something important. In recent years it has been difficult to buy a ticket, and tickets were sold on the trunk in the capital of Lower Silesia.
  14. Thanks, as private Frazier would say if you don`t know " we`re doomed " !!!
  15. Norman, we need your help urgently here http://www.speedway-forum.co.uk/forums/index.php?/topic/89376-west-ham-query/ I haven`t slept for 2 nights
  16. Could Charlie Goldberg(New Cross) have been Jewish ?
  17. If he doesn`t already he will have to for a while. Google translation from the article Batchelor, however, has a contract in the British Isles and there was a risk that he would not agree to basking for the entire season in Poland and choose to ride in Swindon Robins. Especially that his life partner is expecting a child and she can't move to our country for several months. The Australian apparently calculated that even starting for smaller rates will earn more in Poland than in the British Premiership.
