  6. DawnG - assuming you go to Ashfield each week where do you stand? Cheryl (my 11 year old), Lioness and I usually stand next to Mike Hunter at pits gate - As Steve Harley once said "Come up and see me..." we don't bite!
  7. Are you insane there will be a lot of marauding Scots both East and West there that night! I assume you've seen Braveheart - you know the bit about York etc, etc. (I might even get the kilt and woad on! - there the resemblance to Mel Gibson ends.) But wait a minute we'll be in Wales so that's OK boyoh! Thanks for the info- but thanks to the Great God John Todd of Sheffield I managed to get his accommodation 'cos he couldn't go. See ya all on Friday at Newport and at GP! PS Lioness still haven't told the we'an yet - amn't I a bad b+++++r
  8. I managed to get 2 seats for Friday to Cardiff and return Glasgow Sunday last night / morning @ 1am. - confirmation by email 5 min ago.
  9. Which one is it - the Holiday Inn Centre or North?
  10. Haven't booked flight yey but that was my plan. I've probably left it too late to get B&B for us unless you know somewhere there is vacancies in Cardiff / Newport that doesn't cost the earth.
  11. Would love to be at Newport but can't gat any B&B for me and my daughter Cheryl (11) in area unless you know somewhere in Newport - intending to fly Friday and return Sunday

    Charlie Monk

    Spot on Cylclone - Charlie was my hero when I first started attending speedway in 1966/7 at White City. He was painfully shy and rarely gave interviews on the centre green to the fans or take a lap of honour after winning a race. It certainly wasn't any disrespect to the fans, he prefered to do his talking on the track. I think that he ran Barry Briggs close in 1967 averages - did he not lead averages until last week of season? or was it earlier. It was an honour to have watched him ride for the Tigers both at White City and at Hampden. A true gentleman! RESPECT!

    I'm sure that all Tigers fans and Scots will be saddened by this news. I had the priviledge of seeing Hurri-Ken at White City riding for the Hammers and Scotland (and guesting for Tigers too!). Thanks for the memories Ken RIP "When will we see yer likes again" (lyrics from "Flower of Scotland")
