Graham Wale says: Hi
There John. Great site. I was at the very first meeting of
the reopened Leicester track in March 1968 when a crowd of over
11-000 where in attendance and I became a big supporter of the
Lions right up until 1977 when a new career stopped me from
attending meetings |
|
Between 1972-4 I was also the assistant to a number of Leicester riders
and found myself working in the pits and going to just about every meeting
the length and breadth of the country, I worked with Malcolm Ballard, Dave
Jessup briefly and Malcolm Brown plus one or two others. |
|
The job entailed fueling up the bikes mainly 500cc Jawa's and warming the
machine up prior to the start of racing and pushing the riders of onto the
circuit at the start of each heat.
I worked along side a great friend of mine at the time Rob Sensical who is
now involved with the new Lions but I lost contact with Rob in the early
80's but perhaps through your website he may surface once more.
They where great days.. Regards now based in Essex....Great to see the Lions back.. |

CK Potter says: Hi JS enjoyed going through your site
about Blackbird Road my late father Ernest Frank Potter was
the cashier at Blackbird road when it opened in 1928 he was a
qualified accountant and told me of the many cheques he had
written to the big names of the day. In 1933 prior to my birth
he moved to Manchester to take up a position as company
secretary. He never lost his enthusiasm for speedway and we
frequently went to Bell Vue which I understand had occasional
meetings during the war time.He died in 1997.
Keep up the good work. Yours C.K.Potter

Mick Clowes says: I saw my
first speedway at Long Eaton at the tender age of 10 in
1962, and was immediately captivated. As I live closer to
Leicester than Long Eaton I had to wait until the Lions
arrived at Blackbird Road in 1968 before I could attend
regularly. Then it was every Tuesday night and “Soldier
Boy” (the unofficial cheerleader) striding out in front of
the stand, waving a lions flag, and urging us all to “Give
us an ‘L’, etc”. I remember the crowd at the opening was
estimated at 11,000. Happy days. My partner and I have
supported the new venture at Beaumont Park from the off
and are now season ticket holders. |
|
As I collect speedway badges, I was recently in Wilkinsons
buying a couple of box picture frames in which to display
my collection, when I bumped into a friend who enquired
why I had bought the frames. Upon receiving the answer she
asked if some old speedway photos would be any use to me,
as her mum was just about to throw them out. What a red
letter day this was as the old album contained some 32
images, neatly held in with those old stick on corners.
They are all B&W obviously and mainly of the Hunters era,
but as I was a toddler at that time, I have only seen one
or two names before. They are of the “personality photo”
style sold at track shops everywhere and I have named them
(possibly incorrectly) where I can. Feel free to use
them for your site as you see fit, but would you please
credit them to my friend’s dad - Terry Robinson.

with your eyesight ! For those of you who do not
know. Reg Fearman turned promoter in the early 1960s and was
very successful. Was there a more successful promoter than
Reg? Debatable but I think he was number 1. |

Jeff Porter says:
Joe Bowkis was a member of the
very first Poole team in 1948, on loan from First
Division side Harringay. He stepped up to Team Captain
early in the season, and had an excellent year. He
was, unsurprisingly, recalled to Harringay for the
1949 season, but struggled to make an impact in the
top level and was offered for transfer, at which point
Leicester snapped him up. He rode for Leicester from
1950 for the remainder of his speedway career,
retiring during the 1953 season, due, it seems, to
poor health although he was only about 30. |

Laurie Holland & Lionel Benson |
|
|

I believe one of the
2 shown above is Laurie Holland. Can you say which picture
is of Laurie and also whom the other rider is
John |
|
Robin Smith says:
Just picked up your website and have a couple of issues which
might be of interest. The photo questioning Laurie Holland
might well be Laurie on the left but he was not around long so I
would not be positive but the one on the right is definitely
Lionel Benson who was balding prematurely . The problem is who is
in the photo you named as Benson because that is not him? Has the
appearance of a young Ron Wilson but the smarter later leathers
and Kevlar probably rules that out. Regards |
|
Paul Huband says: Hi John, This could be a question asked
sometime ago. I was browsing the website and notice that there
was a question relating to my uncle, Laurie Holland. He came
over to the uk from New Zealand with his Brother Mick Holland
and race for Leicester Hunters. He is on the left Regards.

Adrian McKinlay says: Hi John, I was
wondering if you could help identify this 1950s hunters rider?
It has been listed as dad, but my brother and I do not believe it
is him. I'm thinking possibly Jack Geran or Ivor Brown as
they rode with similar head wear. |
Mike Kemp says: Hi John, Just seen new photo in
name the rider part one I feel sure it is Ken McKinlay riding
for Leicester. Ken always used Hick Finn front forks on
his bike and always rode with his socks turned over his boots
|
John says: The only way I would
know it was "Hurri-Ken" would be if he was wearing one of his
trade-mark woollen bobble hats! Mike has supplied the
following photo of Ken riding for Leicester |
|

John says: So what do you think.
Ken has his socks turned over his boots in the pic with Ove Fundin
and the "Mystery Rider" in the pic above the Ken and Ove pic also
has his socks turned over his boots. I agree with Mike that
it looks like Ken McKinlay. Perhaps Ken's sons will look again and
give us their take on the evidence! email
John |
Adrian McKinlay says: Hi again
John, just responding to the updates regarding my dad, Ken
Mckinlay, on your website |
This photo (see below), appeared on ebay
and I think it answers my initial question? |
|
|
|
|
Also after talking to my brother again
we came up with some traits that dad had. He never wore a
white peak on his helmet at any time or period during his career.
He always routed his cables over the handlebars never underneath
and he always used a throttle guard on the handlebars. Dad was
famous for using upswept cowhorn bars. He would never have
ridden with his leather cuffs undone, he was renowned for his
immaculate appearance and turn out. If you look at the
original photo I sent and the one of Jack, I have attached with
this email I am sure you would agree it is one in the same rider,
that being Jack Geran who by the way was a great friend of dads.
I remember visiting his guest house in Exeter as a child.
The photo of dad and Ove which I also have along with countless
others clearly shows the points I have outlined I think?
Many thanks for your help, I only do this to clarify info for ebay
sellers who quite often list a photo as being dad when in fact it
isnt, the last one of dad being confused with
Sverre
Harrdfelt!!!

John says: My thanks to Adrian McKinlay
for telling us how to tell apart Ken McKinlay and Jack Geran. |

Dear John, We corresponded a few months ago. Attached is a

Mike Smith with two Speedway rider at Blackbird Road, Leicester.
The date is about 1971-73. Any idea as to the names of the
riders. Please feel free to publish the image. Best wishes
Stephen |
|
John says: It appears to me that this
Leicester meeting was some form of an international event.
The guy on the right I think is England rider Ray Wilson not sure
who the rider in yellow is. If you can throw any light on
the event and the rider in yellow please email me
John |
|
Mick Clowes says: Hi John, On the Leicester
information, the colour photo with the BBC Radio
Leicester reporter and Ray Wilson has an unknown rider in
the red and yellow leathers. He is the brilliant John
Boulger, probably my favourite behind Ray Wilson. Wish I
could wave my magic wand and get this pair into today’s
lions team!! We would win the lot! Keep up the good
work, brilliant site. Regards Mick
|
|
John Malpus says: I thought that you would like to know that
the reporter is actually Mike Holt who is currently a LONG EATON
supporter. I travelled the length and breadth of the country
after he and his cousin introduced me to speedway.

Memories |
Ray Brown says: Hi John, Len Williams, I was taken to see
Leicester as a child in the 1950’s and certainly recall Len riding
on a regular basis. I would have first been taken aged 5 in 1952,
(I believe). Len’s bike was quite distinctive, from memory, in
that the right side of his bars were straight whilst the left was
bowed. Seemed to assist his style. I recall a match in very
bad weather when Len just led the field and performed his heart
out. Strange how things stick in your .mind.

Reg Fearman says:
Hi John, Indeed Leicester! I raced for them in
1953-1954. In 1962 Mike Parker and I took the club into the Provincial league
straight from the National league and it hemorrhaged money with very,
very poor crowds. In 1968 along with Ron Wilson my co director I
transferred Long Eaton a "Cinderella" club to Leicester into the British
league. There it stayed until 1984 when the stadium was sold for
housing. Yes I've read that all systems are go for a new sports complex
in a not too salubrious part of Leicester. The following 3
Leicester pictures are from Reg Fearman's collection: - |

about Squib Burton and this is what he said: |
|
Hello John, Squib was a
rider in the '28 to the '38 period and was very good, he got the name as
a firework the Squib Zooooom Bang !! He was a Douglas
rider and a
gentleman who lived in Lutterworth near Rugby and owned a garage there
for many years. Cheers, Reg |

Reg Fearman says:
About 3 am last night I thought of the name of the rider on the last
team photo on the Leicester A to Z It is marked with a question mark, he
is standing next to Ted Flanagan. His name is Alf Parker and no
relation to Jack, Norman or even Mike. |
|
Thanks Reg and sweet dreams in
future try drinking Horlicks and counting sheep! |
|
Reg says: John, the above photos
were taken between June 1953 and September 1954 you will notice how many
faces changed in that short time. This was due to the fact that tracks
were closing and more riders were chasing fewer jobs. Reg |

Stephen Butt says:
This view is from the back of the Press Box, and I think it is a

think) in the foreground. This must be from the late 1960s as
far as I can work out. |

John says: If you
can name anyone in the above photo please email me
John |
John Malpus says:
This photo can be narrowed down to 1968 to 1971 as the
cheerleaders (The Lionesses) in the foreground were the girls who
sold the raffle tickets, one of which was the sister of Alan
Jones, former co promoter of the Lions. The names of the
Lionesses were, Celia, June, Jean, Joan and Jane. |
