Neither will anyone

There’s always one Bell end isn’t there , apologies I meant Northside

When we were in the NDL we didn’t seem to have the absolute nonsense that we’re already starting to see on this thread !? Funny enough now we are back in the championship the lunatics are back. Don’t know if it’s because people take it more serious or what but I’ve noticed some nutters on Facebook too, anyway all publicity is good publicity as they say. In Cook we have a genuine out and out number one. A local rider who should be and now is riding for his local club. Craig will benefit from riding at Workington and we will see what we all know he can do I have no doubt about it. Sam had a great year and another year around the NS track will do him good. Great start for us and I’m sure things will come together nicely. Get them airhorns at the ready, Cmon the Comets!

@Supersteady1984 you are beginning to look like the village idiot of worky, unless you are related to the last one on here @jengaj time to move on

We were told we’d have a fresh look to the team in 2024 after a poor 2023. However so far and with what is rumoured we seem to have back tracked on this.

History repeating itself, I fear. Assembling a similar looking side to last year, if rumours are to be believed and there are no suprises. Is the hope just ‘the whole league will be weaker, so a similar team should do better’?

Good maths though! More importantly...'Congratulations' !

I think that song from 'FROZEN' is quite appropriate for several of the posts on here "Let it go, Let it go"!?

The fishing times lol

Steven Goret in 2021.

Merry Christmas

I'm struggling to work out why a fair few posters think you're a twonk.

Really hope you get your wish !

Don’t worry folks, your team is sorted as Lemon has just dumped one rider saying he can no longer can fit him in …..well why did he sign him in the first place ? especially as he had turned down two other teams and now hasn’t got a place ! Great way to treat the kids. No wonder the sport is in such a mess.

R&R in the International section posted a website link to all leagues in the Polish Ekstraliga section. It was back in October I think....

In the recent Speedway Star Polish speedway 'round-up', it was PIOTR Pawlicki who stated he was looking at doing British racing in 2024!

Can’t argue with that one bit. I’ve met some great people on here over the years and I’ve also seen some crazy comments!

Probably be a similar outcome against majority of teams in the league.

Heat 13: Edinburgh 1 - 5 Glasgow -- Harris 3 Worrall 2* Riss 1 Sedgman 0 Heat 15 Edinburgh 1 - 5 Glasgow -- Worral 3 Harris 2* Sedgman 1 Riss 0 That's the reality if Sedgman and Riss are the two heat leaders next season.

As i have said Buster was never going to run in the club in 24...Whilst it has been know for ages, i'm surprised that the consortium wasn't put together earlier, or started the campaign earlier. Going by the statement it looks like he might not be the **** that a lot have been calling him on here all season, after all.. Still time i hear some say... We will just have to see how it develops, i guess.. I'm not getting in to a slanging match about it on here btw .Had enough of it.. Would just be interested what others make of it.

The final signing will be announced this coming week.

Tarasenko is at kings lynn

Perhaps he should get a job as a carer or a fruit picker or something like that if he can't get on with what he's doing, there's plenty of vacancies apparently. There's millions of people in this country who have to get up and go to a job they hate every single morning, and he can't be bothered sometimes to do something he allegedly loves!

Yea but in the past had to do the travelling for every home meetings as well, if your not in the correct frame of mind, doing this for a job, takes it toll, as has happened in the past unfortunately, hopefully with the correct diagnosis things will be better this year

Does he not like travelling then? In the wrong job really.

That is a blast from the past Jenga,Not seen him on since the start of the season.

If it wasn't in his interest he'd have let us go under, although, as has been said, we wouldn't have. Fair point that Rathbone perhaps didn't have to sell to Chapman but for some reason he did? The club statement in April explained that it was nothing to do with Tomalin and his mouth (although sealing the deal before opening it would have been preferable); "Over the winter there was an on/off scenario whereby the club may have changed hands. However, given the uncertainty over the longevity of Peterborough Speedway, it was understandable that a sale did not take place". Which brings us back to the start about what has Chapman done all year to save the club and placate those ungrateful >>>>>>>>? Bugger all on the face of it, although not upsetting AEPG during the campaign is sensible I'm led to believe, so there is a bit of slack there but being the AEPG communications officer was a bit too far. However, from Oct 31 and after subsequently clearing what he was told to remove from the EoES, one assumes that the gloves are off so we await his statement to placate us and justify your Buster love in.

To a certain extent I bet Buster's son wishes he got away from his Dad earlier than he did lol.

Scunny fan here really hope Cooky finds his form and Workington have a successful transition into the Championship

Osbourne is a business man nothing more nothing less and his decisions/opinions are based on money, when you get the higher up the money chain you find morals and scruples get less and less, people like him would stamp on their own Nan to get the money, if speedway was in a better financial state he would change his stance, he doesn’t break any laws he just doesn’t do or say anything in favour of speedway cause it’s not making him money

Jog on

Imagine all the hysteria here over not having announced more names and then they announce Bickley. There’d be a meltdown.

I think the goal may have been for a third tier with no standalone clubs for a while. Arguably that has cost the sport Mildenhall and Kent as tracks and forced Workington to move up. Ironically the lowering of the points limit and stricter doubling up rules in the third tier could have made things more viable for those clubs and the likes of Buxton and the Isle of Wight. It would have opened up more team spots for young riders too.

Technically only two and a half heat leaders with any effect are missing from the Championship. You can’t really count Andersen (performance) or Tarasenko (late comer). So it’s only Basso, Douglas and the two bad boys who are missing….and one of them can return in June. Have I missed anyone?

He's very good at interviews & tells us what a good bloke he is & how successful his company is, why else would anyone invest their millions in his ventures. Then theres the cold light of day when Mr Osbourne has done nothing in 3/4 years & he still has the investors money. some will be returned but whilst he has had it he has been using it to make himself even more profits. He is a conman A very good one but a conman all the same.

All I’m saying is I don’t think he will be at Berwick.(I might well be wrong)

Delighted to have Jake back integral part of the club. Arguably our best "team rider," as he demonstrated on more than the odd occasion when paired with Nathan Abliit last season. In next seasons Championship he can definitely up his 7.16 average.

This is looking like a cracking side. Experiencence and youth is the key here. Kemp seems to like working with Stewart dickson and I've watched him at leicester last year, he's getting better. Let's see who's next !

Glad Kemp has got a spot for '24. He seemed to mature a little last year at Scunthorpe and in his PL appearances hopefully he can continue on the upward curve. Interesting to read he was happy to miss Championship as he wanted to concentrate on Poland but then was talked round by Dickson.

Like the look of that team , will definitely be one of the favourites.

If Bailey & Edwards ride to their potential, gonna have an excellent top 5.

No Erik. Any rumours where he is going? Armadale please.

Good side.

That’s a decent Team .IMO.

King, Edwards, Jorgensen, Bailey, Wright, Mulford, Trigger looks pretty solid to me!

No money changed hands apparently, allegedly Butterfield (shrewdly knowing that retirement beckons for his PR man) promised Chapman a place if needed in the older person’s Care Village - within the 280-bed care home, to provide supported care, which will be built in The Care Village. If ever part of the project isn't going to see the light of day then that'll be it. Only an unsubstantiated rumour of course. We're still awaiting Chapman's version of events for his sterling efforts throughout the 2023 season regarding the future Peterborough Speedway. At the same time of course as keeping an eye out for Hell freezing over.

I tried putting a laughing emoji to your post but it won't let me do any now for some reason.But you are totally correct.He simply doesn't seem to believe anyone's opinion counts,only his own.

I hope Rob has all the influence over the team building etc.I can't take to Allitt like many people.He seems quite smug,and i don't like the way i have heard him speak to people neither,especially the fans who pay good money to come in.He has to realise those people are allowed opinions too.

So I’ve just read had hoped he’d departed along with Jorgensen to pasture new unfortunately only Jorgensen has gone out of the two - Really hope this 2024 is Robs and Allit plays no part in it over the season
