Throughout a Rain Ruined Season Newcastle Did Not Have a Full Team 1969 Throughout a rain ruined season Newcastle did not have a full team. They lost the services of World Champion Ivan Mauger who went to Belle Vue and three riders who were allocated to replace him, Olle Nygren, Charlie Monk and then Bert Harkins, all refused the moves. Eventually Australian Garry Middleton, previously with Wimbledon, arrived but he lasted only five meetings before he moved to Hackney. Unable to sign a top rider promoter Mike Parker obtained permission to use a guest rider in every match. Goog Allan had returned to New Zealand and Alan Jay rode for Halifax. Dave Schofield, who also rode for Nelson in Division Two, only missed one match all season. Allan Butterfield suffered a broken ankle in May and retired. Norwegian Hilge Langli and then Dane Erik Tilgaard had short spells in the team. Tilgaard was seriously injured in the match against Hackney on 7 July and had to have an emergency operation after a steel wire had penetrated his throat. This put him out of action for the rest of the season but allowed Newcastle to use rider replacement. Mike Watkin was injured early in the season and did not reappear until late in May and Gary Peterson’s season was ended when he broke his jaw and suffered severe concussion in a crash during the World Championship Qualifying Round at Wolverhampton in May. Alan Knapkin, Murray Burt, Sid Sheldrick and Alan Bridgett who were all also with Nelson made up the side during the season. Peter Kelly made a brief return but went to Division Two side Berwick whilst another lower division rider, Tom Leadbitter of Teesside, performed admirably in four meetings. This was Mike Parker’s ninth and last season promoting at Brough Park. Ole Olsen qualified for the Nordic Final of the World Championship at Linkopping, Sweden on 4 June and was eliminated after scoring two points. Dave Gifford qualified as reserve for the British Semi Final held at Leicester on 24 June. He failed to score in his one ride and was eliminated from the World Championship. Ole Olsen represented Denmark in the World Best Pairs in Stockholm, Sweden on 25 September. He scored thirteen of Denmark’s seventeen point total to finish fourth. Ole Olsen represented Newcastle in the British League Riders’ Championship at Belle Vue on 18 October and scored six points. Ole Olsen and Dave Gifford qualified for the Northern Riders’ Championship Final at Sheffield on 28 August. Olsen scored ten points but Gifford failed to score. In qualifying Olsen had won the round at Newcastle with a fifteen point maximum score. Ole Olsen won the Peter Craven Memorial Trophy at Belle Vue on 26 July scoring a fifteen point maximum. Ex Newcastle rider Ivan Mauger scored fourteen points to retain the World Championship at Wembley on 5 September.

  • The Fans' Favourites
    INTRODUCTION Welcome to this FREE speedway e-book, the first of its kind as far as we're aware. This book collates the memories and impressions of riders that we've received for our 'Dream Team' feature on the Speedway Plus website. This book runs from Adams to Zetterstrom giving the supporters' opinions on many riders from the past and present. The comments were made between 2000 and 2007, therefore if you find a comment suggesting that a 27 year old Premier League second string is a stick-on to be World Champion, it's likely to be one of the older contributions. This book differs from any other as it's written entirely by a cross section of supporters, from virtually every track in the land and with varying experiences of speedway. If a rider isn't listed, it's because nobody has chosen them as one of their seven favourite all time riders. Similarly if a little known rider has been included, it's because they've made sufficient impression on someone to be nominated. A definite case of democracy in action. Clearly, given that the comments were all written in this present century, the majority of the riders are from the British League era (1965 onwards). However, there are a number of vintage favourites in there also. If you want your own personal favourites to feature in any subsequent editions then fill in our 'Dream Team' submission form on the website. We hope you enjoy the book.

  • Results & Heat Details
    Season 1967 Version 1.14 Notes – season files The full season files we have compiled have been collated from Speedway Publications, magazines, books and programmes. These files list the heat details of every (known) UK official meeting raced during that particular season and also attempt to correct the many errors that have been published in the Speedway press and various publications for that season. The points scorers in the official league and KO Cup fixtures should (in the vast majority of cases) correspond with the official averages published at the end of the season, together with any fixture(s) where the result was amended following an appeal to the SCB. We tried to remove as many errors as possible and of course some will remain. The authors will be delighted to hear of any “genuine” mistakes and/or any missing information such as race times, christian names, etc. Steve Wilkes/Gary Done E-mail: [email protected] Hackney v Glasgow Friday 24th March 1967 (British League) hackney 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 pts bpts tpts 1.
