Ove has and always will be one of my favorites, and I got to sit on his Norwich track spare No2 at Poole in one of Broggo's Greatest meetings, also got to have a Pint and a conversation with the great man, a super Champion of all time

last one watched ( Newport Speedway The Tim Stone Era ), such a shame it all ended the way it did

hi make sure you type 33/18 and you should be ok

friday 14.00 got through OK good website

there was a Japanese rider who rode in Britain by the name of Jimmy Ogisu he rode in the Internationale at Wimbledon but was not very successful this was either late 60's or early 70's.

He does but not in this country

Here is the link to the 1968 Club /welsh Championship held at Sloper road cardiff https://youtu.be/INnGAPv3xoU

I don't think you got the point

off topic lets get back on track

Its still the same footy or speedway Both dont perform in the UK but gareth is welcome to play for wales No question, Should be the same for woffy

Brilliant idea why not or even from the outfield ,as long as its not on the racing circuit

I think the start of the decline started I think either 74 or 75 ,when Neil Street returned from Australia with his 4 valve Engine for him and his son in law Phil Crump, it started the whole "got to have the fast bike regardless of cost "

this is all whats lacking in british speedway, this is how I remember the 60's

A track and team at Newport would be a start

I Don't think the racing is any more boring than it was 20 years ago, I haven't been to a speedway meeting since Newport Closed, been Attending since 1964, it quickly became my equivalent of a night out at the pub /club . met up weekly with ( our gang ) and all the banter that goes with it. when Tim Stone re-introduced speedway, most of us met up again at our new club, the racing ,it was there some good some bad some breathtaking, it never seemed to matter,I find watching speedway as a neutral boring

End of an era! The Millennium Stadium is no more as iconic ... www.walesonline.co.uk › ... › Rugby › Rugby News › Millennium Stadium 26 Nov 2015 - The Millennium Stadium sign has been taken down ahead of its reincarnation as Principality Stadium.

The millennium stadium and the Principality are one and the same its just a change of name .

how about Ove Fundin

When the Malletts re opened Newport they spent a fortune on Colin Meredith to work on the track , what he produced was so smooth and grippy every race win time was close to the track record, but passing was nigh impossible to go from 2nd to 1st you needed to break the track record, great for most riders terrible for spectators

I was designated Milk Monitor Due to the fact I had an allergy to milk and was not allowed to drink it, perfect cos I couldn't Steel any

You Need More riders Like Zorro Zetterstom Doing his dance on the Bike when he won ( anyone got a Clip ) pure entertainment

Back in 64 it was the smell and the sound ( yes JAP ) I was 13

Bring back the Smell and the noise, both seem to lacking these days

is the GB's Team Managers Job restricted to British Guys, Could we not have Tony Rickardsson for instance, other sports do eg Welsh Rugby and didnt England have Sven Goran Eriksson just a thought

Not sure if he was the 1st Split Waterman
