Nah much better with the cheese triangle, biscuit & the pickled onion in the packet!

No go for me either. I get "This attachment is not available..." on both phone and tablet.

And from a riders perspective it's the transition period from being a hobby / sport to a job / business.

'81 was National League when Hans Nielsen?? / Dam McCormick / CVS?? decided it was better to run Birmingham in the top division and stuff Wolves! '82 '83 Wolves were shut until the Pete Adams revival.

Is that because it's 1 mile from the Villa ground and 3.5 mile from the Albion ground?

Thank you for the info. Do you know if it can be moved between WiFi networks as we would want to watch either at home or when we go to our caravan? Cheers

...And have a rider called 'Moonlight' Graham?

I keep hearing that Belle Vue are chasing a young Aussie that lives in Perth???

As a youngster I loved the Wright Wood piccys and the Craven and Hyde Rd classics are still on my living room wall (and I'm a Wolves fan!). In later years I was amazed by the quality of action pics in the Arena Essex programmes, you could count the wheel spokes with ease. Apologies for not knowing the name of the photographer.

Maido could work wonders with a bag of sawdust!

I think we are on the same wavelength? It was certainly important to be served before him to ensure the optimum choice was available at that late time in the evening! .

It's the amount of new cut and paste postings in one go that causes the issues. Could you consider putting them up on the anniversary of the riders passing or their birthday. A more appropriate time for reflection.

Wimbledon Memories: 1: having beer(s) in the Corner Pin. 2: eating in the local chippy and chatting with Arthur Nutley. 3: 1970: Jimmy Ogisu at the Internationale. 4: disappointment that Ronnie Green couldn't pronounce Ivan Mauger''s name correctly. 5: getting lost on the way (pre sat navigation era!). Spotted bikes on a trailer. Followed it. Car stopped and it was Ivan Mauger. He got out and he said, "if you are following me, I'm visiting the people I stayed with when I first came to England. If you hang on 15 mins then I will go to Plough Lane!" 6: pulling onto the car park and the attendant said that Keith Moon had died. My mate in the car said, "Who". Wolves won!

Perhaps 'cynical' average manipulation to keep Douglas at reserve for the play offs would have been enough to negate the Dad's Army strength at reserve?

Perhaps Tai could ride all home meetings for Wolves on a Monday.... and then all Belle Vue home meetings on a Thursday.... it could be called 'doubling up' to help the BSPA (L) to maintain the sports integrity.

Depends which club has the best tattoo parlour?

I've heard Poole fans suggesting that Matt Ford was their best 'Supreme Stylist'

I've got a BSPA rule book..... but I think it's well beyond repair!

What a gem. Thank you for the link. Just looking at the Memorial page. The Gary Peterson piece is a reminder of a meeting I will never forget. I will raise a glass to all of them later . RiP

Well I didn't know who the #8 was going to be!

Name the team after one of the other reindeers' then? Unless a Reindeer is a type of Stag in which case Scunny will probably veto it.

Just tried to get to Merry Hell for Christmas shopping and had to give up as nowhere to park. Came back via Cradley and it reminded me that the pub at the top of Dudley Wood Rd is, The Woodman and the one next to the 'stadium' is the Victoria Inn. A few Wolves fans would park up at the Golden Cross and have a few beers in the 'priest hole' before walking down the "Wembley Way Of The Midlands" to the track. Still miss the dump. Must visit the 'Ole Power' bridge sometime!

And I think he's in his early 30s, so might struggle to be a 'rising star '..

Same thoughts from me. Saw him on the Ca tracks in the early 90''s. Looked so fast and in control. A safe Kelly Moran was my initial thought.

Sad news.... many a beer from the Red Lion, Cricklade was recycled in this most famous of toilets in Speedway. Was it really a pig trough as the urinal???
