  1. im a workington fan and thats a similar view i got but there was a similar incident a few heats earlier as ive posted allready 2 wrongs dont make a right but sort of balances things outgreat photo by the way
  2. funny how theres no mention of this called off after ht 9 so a £1 a heat is that only £3 discount up to heat 12 or does it go up to heat 15 and a big £5 off or because it was double header do we get nothing off
  3. dislocated his shoulder at newcasatle sunday is good enough reason i would think dont think hes that badhope not anyway i want to see him ride again
  4. this is 1 of the problems in the sport elitte clubs can sign riders who never ride any where near the elittle league for years if at all but prem league clubs have to use them to retain them as a asset
  5. yes i have to agree the new set up at northside has worked brilliantly not only for the ones who are starting out but it has even brought the odd after meeting riders to derwent park some of which have imporoved a lot from when they rode in the past
  6. if ashley morris is in next years team i hope the promotion provide a mechanic and also purchase all his equipment and arange for it to be set up interesting thing about sam masters average was takien from his elitte league and not his prem league average once again british speedway changing the rules as they go along as long as they want to ride for workington then as much off this years team as possible should be kept with just a little tweak to try and strengthen depending on who wants to come in to the team
  7. but thats just sensible and we are talking british speedway here not much makes sense thats the thing though and some comets fans wont accept we were given the option to restage and declinedi fully understand the promotions reasons but it dosnt make it any easyier being a pasionate comets fan when the promotion throw away the chance to progress to the final of a competion
  8. cant remember too much about the 13 ht formula but i do like proper 2nd halves be it just juniors having there first laps or proper junior racing i like watching riders develop like i did with richard lawson and craig cook at workington can also remeber a young william lawson coming down to workington we now have kyle bickley at workington still very young but looks to have potential to go far
  9. i share the opinion that agregate should be same heats at both tracks but this was the fall back option after a new date couldnt be arranged to stage the 2nd leg over 12 to 15 hts to declare a full result maybe something that needs looking at for future years
  10. craig cook and peter kildermand which promotor with any ambission would have sold them 2 i bet both are worth 3 to 4 times as much as they were sold for to be fair to lawson he didnt cross the line did he there was no line left to cross at the point he passed cookieim not saying he was on track but im not saying he was off track either but its over and done with the reffs decission is final but the track staff should be pulled up for removing the white line when track grading which they seem to do most weeks lately
  11. suerly admin have the option to see all pm's and act on them in the same way they would with a post thats made in bad taste
  12. from what I've heard the comets are about to get a New owner
  13. just how will telling the truth get me into trouble. your showing your true colours. are you connected to the promotion in any way ?
  14. the workington promotion had the option to rerun which they declined
  15. why put something in a programe if its not for the suporters after all no one else will be buying it will they
  16. i was actually thinking something similar jenga howarths riding last night just didnt seam right somehow cant put my finger on it but something wasnt quite right going in fast and running out wide and loosing ground when he clearly looked faster
  17. wasnt there but i have been to sheffield a few times when the track has been awfull
  18. anyone else who cant get on the website i got a message from a friend saying they couldnt get on so i tried and also cant log on ?
  19. only 1 person didnt want cookie to stay at workington work out who that was i dont think it was cookie
  20. from the horses mouth im affraid they cant afford the meetings it would mean running all double ot even tripple headers
  21. thatrs what i said for this to happen 12 hts shoul have been run then take the result of the other back to 12 but its a rule for the future not 1 to be brought in after the meetings have taken place the promotion dont want to
  22. its a pritty fair 1 when you think about it but i would say the meeting would have to run to ht 12 to be classed a resultif 1 meeting goes the full distance then the other only gets to heat 12 the team with 15 heats at home has a home advantage so in future aggregate score meetings maybe it should worked out on the same amount of heats but in this case i would expect ipswich to progress to the final with no protest from the workington management
  23. dont think cookie was out of order to be honest he protested about what he thoughtthe crowd were cheering him and he cheered back some riders would have shouted abuse cookie didnt yes cookie parked the bike but it was his mechanic that stood there with the bike untill the riders in the next heat came out and he pointed to them where he thought lawson had gone over the line but if he did go over the line they should have been looking about 4 ft futher round towards the back straight not the place they were pointing at
  24. wouldnt say too much or the earlier crossing of the white line might be brought up about 3 or 4 heats before ht 13 also if the edinbrugh manager hadnt dropped tully to use sargents 3rd ride in order to bring tabak in for him in ht 14 then edinbrugh might have won fair and square tully looked fastest edinbrugh rider after cookie who looked vey fast all nightlawson was very close to the inside line which side of it i wouldnt like to say but adam roynon passed cookie fair and squre in the same heat
  25. didnt look like workington wanted to go through in both meetings why in the intervel between the 2 match's was the blade not used but then used inbetween heats in the 2nd was this to delay the meeting untill the rain came
