  1. 1 thing that might explain this to a bit is the fact that a foriegn rider might only ride in this country for a few years maybe as little as 2 or 3 where as a british rider ridding in his home country would proberly ride much longer and finish his career in this country riding for maybe 10 years plusalso at the time of sale thj was only a good prem league rider in this country where as nicholls and kenett were established elitte league riders not knocking jonasson 1 bit i think hes a great rider with more potential than the 2 others you have listed
  2. its not waterd down as much as the eliete league just look how many prem league 2nd strings and reserves are beating elite league heat leaders on a regular basis lawson rode tonight but wasnt top of his gameand as with most riders when they take a knock he choose to sit out the away meeting and then made his return on home ground where they are more comftoble and im not saying he aint crap at edinbrugh most of the comets are
  3. Just announced at track New owners for Workington for next year. thank you Laura and Steve for taking over
  4. i can remember craig cook first couple of meetings in the prem leaguefirst into first corner almost every heat thean got passed but after a few weeks he was winning heats
  5. i know its very doubtfull but if workington beat edinbrugh they would do better than scunthorpe on league points so not that simple is it
  6. 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
  7. 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
  8. 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
  9. 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
  10. 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
  11. 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
  12. 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
  13. 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
  14. 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
  15. 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
  16. 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
  17. from what I've heard the comets are about to get a New owner
  18. just how will telling the truth get me into trouble. your showing your true colours. are you connected to the promotion in any way ?
  19. the workington promotion had the option to rerun which they declined
  20. why put something in a programe if its not for the suporters after all no one else will be buying it will they
  21. 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
  22. 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 ?
  23. only 1 person didnt want cookie to stay at workington work out who that was i dont think it was cookie
  24. from the horses mouth im affraid they cant afford the meetings it would mean running all double ot even tripple headers
