  1. And very different, I remember reading his profile in the speedway star and it was totally different from others that I had seen. Certainly got him plenty of publicity and people talkming about him even though he never reach past the novice stage.
  2. Thanks Merv would be nice to see what he is doing now and his thoughts on speedway today.
  3. I wonder if it is about rider that I am not sure what his name was, but I seem to remember was called Jon Jon White, never really made it as rider, but was very much a character, renowned for wearing black leathers in the 80's and a black bike.
  4. I think that Terry Betts has been done, and I think Neil Middleditch has as well, would love to see what Steve Gresham is doing now though.
  5. Yeah, would be interesting to see what he has to say about the Moran brothers.
  6. Remember them both, they were really tough nut riders who rode hard.
  7. I believe that Bob Kilby has already been done, Bruce Cribb would be a very good one, Barry Briggs could do a full magazine worth of stories I reckon on him.
  8. Yes Tormod start at Bristol 77 and 78, when Bristol closed he went to Halifax for the 79 season, and how some success with the Dukes. I believe that Halifax sacked him when he broke his home, and as far as I am aware .
  9. Tormod did break his arm handgliding.
  10. Ian Tiddler Turner Bengt Larsson Jim Airey Kai Neimi Jerzy Rembas Robert Craven
  11. Hasve to agree and I said it right from the start.
  12. Very sad to see the demise of the County Ground. Are you a SWFC fan BC.
  13. Halfway through next season I reckon he will be back on a bike, and if he comes to Britain don't be surprised if it is with Poole.
  14. I agree, I think that this thread has worn itself out.
  15. Have to admit I did not realise that Bob was involved.
  16. Okay everybody happy that the mans name is out, at the time I did not know when he retired in either 74/75 I wuold only be 10 or 11, it was later that I was told he was gay, after his death. I vaguely remember that the inquest said that he had suffered for quite a few years with depression, no mention that he was having problems with his sexuallity.
  17. Does it really matter, the man has been dead for quite sometime now, and I don'tthink that does any good to bring it back up. Let the man rst in peace.
  18. Don't know about Daniel, but James will be 14 next month, so will not be able to ride Conference League until 2009, and Premier League until 2010.
  19. And before anybody points it out to me I have forgot girls as well as boys, interesting that Montanna Jowett was at Scunthorpe today, first time I have seen her, must say that I was impressed.
  20. First things first, I have never ever met you, and I can assure you that I have spoken to Mark today, and he and my son are friends. Right back to what I have said about James and the rest of the boys who take up our great sport. I support youngsters like James and your son who have a talent, the biggest disappointment for me was that the rounds of Under 15's has been diluted , these boys need more rides and more tracks need to be for them to ride. In the past we have seen the speedway training academy has gone where youngster were shown all kinds aspects to help them with a speedway career, again something that I have supported on this forum. I can also tell that after speaking to Mark James dad today I said that I would like to back James next season with a bit of money, it won't be much I am not a wealthy man, and I don't have business I am fan who cares about the future of this sport. I have also promised to talk to friends who have businesses too see if they are interested in backing him.
  21. listen m8 why would he lie about mark being at scunny. 1.yes mark was there without james and said he was going to wash down his bikes somtime this week. 2.y would spin king lie it has no satisfaction for himself. 3.and how i know hes not lieing is because i was stood next him while he was talking to mark CASE CLOSED FULL STOP. spin king jnr
