You obviously never went to a Wolves v Cradley match in the day.Was always a very highly charged and nasty atmosphere which lot of times ended up with fights on the terraces.:(

And that was just the women.

I always look back on the 1978 World Final at Wembley with great fondness..

Heat 4... Ivan Mauger... did he fall or was he pushed...

Ole Olsen... my favourite rider at the time winning...

Gordon Kennett... the captain of my team, White City, finishing 2nd... and on his birthday!

 

The GP's will never be as good as those one-offs...

Another thing i always remember is travelling to away matches by coach, i can remember 6 coaches leaving the Belle Vue complex going down to Swindon covered in scarves pictures of the riders/team in the windows. What was great going down to Wembley when we got down to the Midlands we would be travelling along with coaches from Wolves, Cradley, Coventry all decked out had some great banter at the services.
