Programme changes: Ht 10: TS Forsberg for Nilsson; Ht 11: Conway replaced Moreton.

NOTE: Heat fourteen was farcical! After the riders had completed a lap, they all stopped because they saw that the red lights were on, however, this was apparently because Moreton had been excluded for a tapes offence. Eventually, Broadbank realised what had happened and continued on, but the Swedes were not as quick to react and before they had got going again, Broadbank had lapped them! Broadbank’s winning time for the race of 139.2 seconds remains the slowest ever recorded at Blunsdon!

NOTE: The match originally ended in a 51-45 victory to Swindon but, following an appeal, the result was later changed to a 48-47 victory for the Robins. On the night of the meeting, with weather conditions deteriorating, Swindon were unhappy to continue riding after heat six and asked the referee to inspect the track. However, the official refused and put the riders for heat seven on two minutes. With neither Swindon rider (Broadbank and guest, McKinlay) making it to the start, Belle Vue rode untroubled to a 5-0 race victory. Swindon then decided to contest the rest of the meeting, but asked that heat seven be re- run with its original line-up! The referee agreed and the race then ended as a 3-3, much to the disgust of Belle Vue, who then rode under protest. Therefore, the outcome of the appeal was that the ACU reinstated the original 5-0 result of heat seven. As a matter of interest, the result of that re-run heat seven was a win for Duckworth ahead of McKinlay, Broadbank and Payling. Had the original result of heat seven stood on the night, Peter Williams would not have been permitted to take a tactical substitute ride in heat eight, as the score at the time was Belle Vue 20 Swindon 21 – instead of 18-24. Neither would Peter Craven have been allowed to take a TS ride in heat sixteen, the score at the time being Belle Vue 44 Swindon 45 – as opposed to 42-48!
