Astley & Tyldesley Report
Stockport hosted the third and last of the Manchester League's Individual Finals, in its 60th anniversary season. 9 riders lined up to contest the Senior Individual final on a cool, damp evening.
Stockport's Terry Norman made the most of a favourable draw, that saw him drawn inside his main rivals, to take the trophy with a 16 points maximum score, leading every time by the first bend. Sheffield's Polish duo of Piotr Jamroszczyk and Dariusz Pilas both rode well throughout, to complete the top three placings. This trio dominated the meeting, with the rapidly improving youngsters again benefiting from racing in this senior competition.
The Manchester League Senior Individual Championship has been staged every year since 1955, when Derek Tegg was the first winner. Derek Garnett, a winner on several occasions, presented the trophies on the night.
As well as this event, Dylan Radcliffe received his trophy for winning the Senior Individual Grand Prix series, with the Stockport team presented with their trophies for winning the League Division 1 title.
