Newcastle Speedway Brough Park a League History Volume Three 1981 Newcastle Speedway Brough Park A League History Volume Three 1981 to 1993 Compiled by Joe Wake 1 Foreword I was born in 1955 and was brought up in Blyth, Northumberland in the 1960’s. I discovered speedway when noticing the reports on the back page of the Newcastle Evening Chronicle. I pestered my father to take me and he eventually did. We both became hooked on the sport but as he was a police officer working shifts it meant we could only go every two weeks at the most. I did, on a couple of occasions, take the speedway special United bus which went from Ashington to Brough Park on a Monday night and picked up in Blyth but, for a schoolboy the, if I recall, 3s 9d bus fare together with the cost of admission and programme meant it was not possible to do so on a weekly basis. Brough Park closed at the end of the 1970 season. I went to one meeting each at Ashington and Sunderland but that was it until I attended the the reopening meeting at Brough Park in March 1975. I was then in my late teens, was working and liked socialising and between then and leaving the area to move to Northamptonshire in 1981 I probably saw no more than half a dozen meetings. Since then I have attended about twenty meetings with the latest being in 2005. I still follow the sport and have continued to subscribe to Speedway Star throughout but I, like many others, have become disillusioned with rule changes, guests, doubling up and down, the laughable double points joker etc. I fear for the future of the sport. I have contributed to the Speedway Researcher for quite a few years and thought it would be tidier if as many of the seasons’ files as possible were included within different volumes and that a little narrative and league tables were added. This is the second volume and subsequent volumes should follow in due course. All details are based on information available to me and assumptions made. If any details are incorrect or incomplete then please get in touch with me at my email address [email protected]. The averages compiled throughout these volumes take into account all full team matches (not four team tournament) excluding one-off (even if over two legs) challenge matches. Unlike other publications they include, for example, Supernationals and Gold Cups of the 1980’s and 1990’s. In recent years guest riders have been regularly used in that anyone not named in a team’s 1 to 7 is considered to be a guest. In my figures I only consider a guest to be someone deputising who is in the 1 to 7 of a team in the same league or a rider loaned by the home side when an away side has turned up short handed. As an example in 2012 Steve Worrall was injured but remained in Newcastle’s named 1 to 7. Paul Starke who rode for Isle of Wight in the league below replaced him on fifteen occasions and was classed as a guest. He would be shown as a Newcastle rider in my averages.

Derek Richardson broke his leg in the first league match of the season and was replaced by local youngster Paul McHale and subsequently New Zealander Kym Mauger who was the son of Ivan. David Bargh missed four meetings in July because of a virus and Robbie Blackadder was troubled by minor injuries throughout the season. Tom Owen attempted a comeback but did not last the full meeting at Edinburgh. This, however, allowed Newcastle to utilise rider replacement for the rest of the season which did not go down too well with their rivals. Rod Hunter and David Bargh represented Newcastle in the National League Pairs Championship at Halifax on 18 July. They scored seven points and four points respectively from their three rides and were eliminated at the group stage. David Bargh represented Newcastle in the National League Riders’ Championship at Wimbledon on 26 September and scored three points. Alan Emerson qualified for the Grand National Final at Boston on 15 August and was eliminated in the repecharge. David Bargh qualified for the Australasian Final of the World Championship in Sydney on 28 February and was eliminated after scoring two points. Alan Emerson scored fourteen points to win the Cumbrian Apollo Cup at Workington on 18 September. No Newcastle rider challenged for the Silver Helmet during the season. Berwick raced their league meetings at Barrow and Glasgow but were forced to drop out of the league in September. They went on, however, to reach the Knock Out Cup Final and raced their legs of the semi final and final at Brough Park. 4 National League P W D L F A Pts Middlesbrough 36 30 1 5 1692 1109 61 Weymouth 36 26 1 9 1570 1236 53 Newcastle 36 25 1 10 1566.5 1232.5 51 Edinburgh 36 25 0 11 1535.5 1246.5 50 Glasgow 36 24 0 12 1500.5 1294.5 48 Boston 36 22 0 14 1503.5 1301.5 44 Exeter 36 22 0 14 1497 1305 44 Mildenhall 36 20 0 16 1417.5 1383.5 40 Peterborough 36 19 1 16 1433 1368 39 Crayford 36 19 0 17 1361.5 1432.5 38 Ellesmere Port 36 18 1 17 1446 1354 37 Oxford 36 18 1 17 1392 1407 37 Wolverhampton 36 14 1 21 1345 1452 29 Canterbury 36 14 1 21 1340 1460 29 Stoke 36 14 0 22 1343 1452 28 Rye House 36 11 0 25 1328 1472 22 Scunthorpe 36 6 1 29 1114 1682 13 Workington 36 6 1 29 1047 1752 13 Milton Keynes 36 4 0 32 1149 1641 8 Withdrawn Berwick 26 8 0 18 998 1026 16 National League Knock Out Cup winners were Edinburgh.

  • Volume 15 No.2 September 2012 Edition No
    The Speedway Researcher Promoting Research into the History of Speedway and Dirt Track Racing Volume 15 No.2 September 2012 Edition No. 58 Lee Richardson The tragic loss of Lee Richardson has had massive coverage in other publications. We would just like to add our sincere condolences to Lee’s wife and children and to his family and friends. Editors Speedway in Australia 1926 In 1926 Lionel Wills visited Australia and his thoughts on speedway in Australia was published in The Motor Cycle on November 25th of that year. We now reproduce that article. “Motor racing,” an Australian daily paper remarked recently, “has definitely become one of the major sports of Sydney.” In Australia, in other words, a motor race meeting often draws as big a crowd as does a football match, and the time is obviously approaching when it will rival horse racing, the Australians’ favourite pastime. Now even with the increasing popularity of the T.T. races, the same cannot be said of England, and it may therefore interest home readers to hear how it is done on the other side of the world. In cinder-track racing Australia has discovered a type of event which is as thrilling as the “T.T.,” and even more spectacular than sand-racing; in addition, it requires a not very great outlay of capital, and the track is easily accessible from the big city. Ten minutes on a tram, fact brings Sydney to the Speedway Royal, which is simply, a broad unbanked cinder track constructed round a football oval. Australian football is played on an oval field, and the track round it is about one-third of a mile, with huge stands all round, having accommodation for thousands of people.

  • WORLD LONGTRACK FINALS 1971 – 1996 Tracy Holmes
    WORLD LONGTRACK FINALS 1971 – 1996 Tracy Holmes Pre 1971 Before we look at the first World Longtrack Final in 1971, we must take a peek at its prototype, the European Final. The first of these was held in 1957 and won by the Norwegian legend Leif "Basse" Hveem. The term 'legend' is often thrown about like confetti but in this case, it is well earned ! The next 3 Finals were all won by West Germany's Josef Hofmeister. No-one was ever able to achieve the 'Triple Crown' in the World Finals, but 2 riders did it in its forerunner. Hofmeister was joined by another West German, Manfred Poschenrieder winning in '66, '67 and '68. The closest anyone got in the World Final was England's Simon Wigg who won the Finals of '93 and '94, only to be beaten in the Gold Medal run-off in '95 by his England team-mate, Kelvin Tatum! Swedish riders excelled in the Euro Finals, 1954 World Speedway Final bronze medalist, Olle Nygren took the bronze in the '59 Final. Ove Fundin, reigning World Speedway Champion at the time, was 2nd in the '61 Final behind Timo Laine of Finland. Just over a week later, Fundin won his 3rd World Speedway Final. Bertil Strid was Sweden's first Euro Champion, winning the Finals of '62 and '63. The Swedes were interupted in '64 by Denmark's Kurt W. Petersen. On the 12th of September 1965, Swedish star Bjorn Knutson won the Euro Final. A week later, he won the World Speedway Final as well.
