The 1971 season file on Speedway Researcher lists the Halifax side as 1. Eric Boocock 2. Greg Kentwell 3. Dave Younghusband 4. Dave Durham 5. .Paul O'Neil 6. Malcolm Mackay 7. Terry Lee Heat 7 is noted as Boocock, Keen, O'Neil, Broadbank. However Halifax are not 6 behind at this point so Boocock could only have ridden as rider replacement. I suspect Dave Durham is at #8 but who was R/R in operation for? I also suspect Paul O'Neil actually rode at #4 with R/R at #5. Can anyone confirm the Halifax line-up?

Cheers.

Thanks for that. I thought that might be the case with Joe owen but just wanted to double check. Cheers.

I'm looking for the following indoor information if anyone can oblige: 1981 Devil Take The Hindmost race time 1983 Lada W.C.S.S.I. qualifying heat 2 race time 1983 Lada W.C.S.S.I. repechage heat B - confirm the line-up & result which I have as Joe Owen (W), Erik Gundersen (YB), Ari Koponen (B), 38.6 - no rider in red.

Can someone clarify why Jan Mucha did not appear to ride in this meeting? Was he replaced by first reserve Ryszard Fabiszewski who also didn't ride?

Can someone confirm these 4 results - I'm anticipating two of them to be incorrect: 09/08/1991 Peterborough 52 Milton Keynes 38 27/08/1991 Milton Keynes 51 Peterborough 39 31/08/1991 Arena Essex 62 Peterborough 28 04/10/1991 Peterborough 47 Arena Essex 43 And I need to cinfirm these final for/against race points totals for the Gold Cup South group: Arena Essex 441 - 454 Exeter 488 - 405 Hackney 416 - 477 Milton Keynes 445 - 455 Peterborough 488 - 406 Rye House 409 - 490

Can anyone confirm these For & Against points totals for the 2002 Conference Trophy: Buxton 497 - 399 Carmarthen 477 - 423 Mildenhall 525 - 375 Swindon 438 - 464 Wimbledon 410 - 483 Wolverhampton 345 - 548 I also require confirmation of these three fixtures, one abandoned and two postponed: 06/09/2002 Newport v Peterborough (Conference League) - Postponed 05/10/2002 King's Lynn Best Pairs - Abandoned (at what heat and reason if possible) 13/10/2002 Belle Vue v Wolverhampton (Craven Shield) - Postponed

Many thanks.

A couple of queries if anyone can help: 15th August World Team Cup Final - Victor Ludorum heat details 5th September Embassy British Open - meeting reserves

Unfortunately, no. I haven't done much work on the AJL so all I have are the basic results from the yearbooks and Speedway Star. 1982 is incomplete and I have nothing from the final season, 1985. If you PM your email address I'll happily pass on what I have.

Can anyone provide me with the outcome of the following junior challenge matches from 1985. none of which feature in the yearbook. 6th August Barrow v Birmingham 20th August Barrow v King's Lynn 5th September Sheffield v Wolverhampton v Cradley Heath v Halifax 27th September Birmingham Wheels Junior Championship

Thanks Arnie. Buxton had a U.S.A. Style Speedway event postponed on 9th October so you're recalling well. The Poole ghost fixture is listed here http://www.speedwaygb.co.uk/may11 but doesn't feature in their results & scorers here http://www.speedwaygb.co.uk/news.php?extend.11043

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?

Sorry, can't help with these - my Speedway Stars stop at the end of 1984. I'm sure someone else will be able to give you the information you need.

Thanks.

Do you recall the source of that result? Star, programme, etc?

Bump

My results list records this result as 39-53. The SGB website records the same result and the final CL table appears to incorporate it. However the 2008 Yearbook records the result as 39-54 and the league table appears to concur. The Stoke scorers are recorded as follows: Branney 13, Dore 10, Evans 8, Isherwood 7, Legg 7, Priest 6 & Kendrew 3, = 54. Can anyone confirm the match result?

No problem. Note that the Halifax v Birmingham match, shown as 9-9, should read 9-8.

Speedway Star w/e December 3rd 1983 published a C.J.L. season review with league table, score grid and averages. PM me with your email address if you would like a scan of it.

All issues now resolved, thanks to arnieg

Thanks. There's obviously something else amiss in my file and/or calculations. Thanks.

Speedway Star w/e 3rd September states "Coventry have been beset by injury problems and have requested the postponement of all their fixtures for the next two to three weeks. Hopefully they will be able to rearrange them all before the end of the season, but if not, it is likely that Peterborough will take over their matches." Coventry raced 6 matches before their withdrawal: 16/04 Coventry 12 Sheffield 6 25/04 Birmingham 12 Coventry 6 14/05 Coventry 8 Swindon 10 11/06 Coventry 8 Long Eaton 10 25/06 Coventry 12 Birmingham 6 05/08 Swindon 15 Coventry 2 I don't have dates for these unfortunately but the Peterborough fixtures were: Long Eaton 8 Peterborough 10 Stoke 12 Peterborough 6 Leicester 11 Peterborough 7 Sheffield 10 Peterborough 8 Peterborough 9 Leicester 9 Peterborough 12 Stoke 6 Peterborough v Halifax and Halifax v Peterborough were not raced.
