Jack Pye (disq 4) v Orford
Royal v Vallon I seem to recall Royal injured.
Fields v Guy La Roche. Fields by KO
Can't remember the other.
You were very privileged to have Bob Roop on your first live bill
Blooming 'eck that's quite a bill to start with. You were spoiled from the start Paul. Great memories though.
Nice memory Paul. Here is the newspaper bill.
I was also at this show. In my view Robins versus Wall was the highlight. I remember enjoying the tag. Lee Sharron and Steve Clements were the masked villains.
