Seem to re-call hearing a few years ago, that Neil Machin wanted to cut in to the centre green at Sheffield to make it wider, but was refused permission. Can anyone confirm if this is correct?
Comparison I heard a few years back. Top division footballers fifty years ago would earn 6 times the amount of the average working man in the crowd. Today they earn 200 times the average working man.
Yes can re-call him posting a groveling apology to Workington speedway in order to get back in. "Would appear that after careful consideration Workington decided they would rather close than have him back"
