· First Cup Final in almost ten years and there was as much action off the track as
on it
· Kingsway try to delay meeting in the hope that Chic Mackie will turn up – sadly
Chic had a asthma attack and didn’t ride
· Kingsway also disappointed that steward Jimmy Cobain was also a no show - how did they know he would not allow Ronnie Young to ride with his wrist in plaster
· Stand in steward John Speirs rules that Ronnie can ride “ as long as his jersey
covers it at all times” – John incidentally was involved in the crash that saw Ronnie break his wrist
· Early races are split but first Hawks and then Kingsway gain narrow leads
· Heats 10 –13 see Hawks build up a four point lead, with Dick and Ronnie gaining
a valuable 4-2 from the outside grids
· Mike and Ronnie gain a great 5-1 in heat 15 putting Hawks in the driving seat
· Dick and Nicky comfortably take 3-3 in next heat to put Hawks 8 up with two races
to go
· Kingsway need a 5-1 from outside gates in heat 17 but strangely both their riders
try to take Ronnie out at first bend , letting Moosh build up a huge lead – the Cup is going to Hampden !!
· MOM – Dick – could probably have got a maximum but settled for the points
that won us the Cup
