I was there too, Dad took me and my brother. Lots of Tommy Knudsen fans on the Tube making, plenty of friendly banter, it was a great day out. Penhall was just the best even when Cradley gave us a hiding at Poole. Was gutted when he retired. One of the greatest nights in speedway this '81 final 👍

A Cradley rider wins a World Final! I was so excited and wanted to soak up every last minute of celebrations I missed my train back to the midlands and eventually arrived home just as dawn was breaking.

Schade, zu der Zeit war ich noch nicht so weit. Ich lernte aber viel in diesem Rennen, was man besser nicht tun sollte.

I think Bruce's bike was a lot faster than Ollys but he used his track craft till the last bend there knowing that all along and made a mistake there thinking Bruce was inside of him. Olly did a fantastic job throughout that race but youth and a faster bike won in the end. Olly should have won that race on skill alone. That was a fantastic race at that level. I was there and still remember it all. Stevie in Fife.

Hope DJ sacked his mechanic. 2 e/fs in the 78 world final and then this one - smacks of poor preparation on the big nights. Shame, talented tidy rider - looked good in the 80 world final in Gothenburg and came close. Bruce was supreme on this night though and thoroughly deserved it.
