I first saw speedway at Glasgow White City in 1966 when Swindon Robins (and the legendary Barry Briggs) were the visitors. It took me a year to return but I was an ever present (barring holidays) for the next eight years as the Tigers travelled to Hampden Park and Coatbridge before ending up at Blantyre (where I only saw one meeting).
My career then took me to Argyll where I’ve lived for 25 years, so I missed all the glory years at Shawfield.
Returned late in 2001 with the Tigers now at Ashfield – was hooked before Heat 1 and now go every week with my daughter.
Started to video meetings mid 2004 after Mike Hunter decided to cut back on his commitments.
