  1. if hes willing to drop the price down to a tenner if the crowd is 1000 + then why dosnt he put that to the press thats a very good idea aslong as he meens it cant say thats not fare if the crowd is big enough to pay the way we get a discount maybe it should be offered as a insentive for the next meetings bring youre ticket to the next match and get a discount ?
  2. well said the first thing he did when he took over was sack most off the staff ban a good number of fans and iff all of those took just 1 family member or friend with them thats the difference between making a healthy profit or making a loss
  3. think you will find keith denham is his own worst enemy he has no pr tact at all threatening people dosnt work
  4. so from what i believe the comets promotion will be in breach of fullfilling fixtures unless its berwick who wont ride on that date leaving 1 of them with a penalty to pay
  5. so did they give a date for the berwick match or not
  6. is there anybody from another track can tell workington fans if this is a double header or not we were told over pa last week it could be and to keep a eye on the papers to get confermation but all our promotor wants to put in the press is that he has contacted bspd to see if he can close down assap and then he cant understand why the crowds have dropped
  7. theres a lot of truth in jengas post if jenga is the person i believe them to be they have more knowledge in running speedway than you give them credit for
  8. i think more important thing is to show all interested partys its woth taking over i really think keiths had enough i will be there if its on as always ive only missed 2 or 3 meetings a year and thats when im away as long as it runs and i can budget for going or i find i no longer enjoy going i will be there whoever is in charge its the action on the track that makes me go week in week out
  9. theres a story on bspa website kyle howarth back in team on saturday so lets hope thats good news for rest of season and we will take next year as it comes
  10. i agree with you apart from the winning team lollets hope workington can hold ipswich close so it makes it harder for the bspa to let denham pull the plug before the end of season
  11. from what i know off keiths attitude both regarding workington speedway and thomas armstrongs i think he would rather shut it than sell it on and the new owners make a better job of it than he did1 things for sure if it does end before the end of the season all the assets and thats not many will go to the bspa so all keith will have to sell to anyone wanting to run it would be the starting tapes and other such equipment if he wants to get anything back then a quick sale sounds a good idea even if its only £10,000 its ten grand in his pocket
  12. in recent times the crowd has been poor at workington speedway and theres many reasons 1 off them is the promotors atitude but im affraid the biggest 1 is people just cant afford to take there familys along to speedway at the price it is in the current economical climate
  13. no mention of workington being up for sale denham is the type to shut it rather then sell on and someone turn it round
  14. sorry but to blame the manager you are wrong jacko is the manager denham is the owner/promotor if he hadnt banned all the fans as soon as he took over we might have had enough paying fans to cover costs but also as others have found out £15 is too much for some to pay ever week in the current climate no he said last year he was thinking of not running the following year this year hes wanting to pull out this weekend and shut before the season is over with league cup and knockout cup still to play for
  15. well if you run you might just get richard lawson but cant see kenny ingalls riding next seasonhttp://www.timesandstar.co.uk/home/keith....ferrerPath=home
  16. its not as daft as it sounds edinburgh and redcar have had up and down season at home and workington are crippled with injurys only 3 fit riders out of 7 and 1 off them is a 3pt reserve who is strugling with mechanical problems
  17. i did hear a story about someone complaining about the noise in the grandstand what do they expect is my answer to that as for paying to get in the grandstand well thats fair enough in my opinion 1, it pays for the grandstand 2, most football/rugby whatever sport it is do charge extra for a seated/covered area as oppose standing out in the open but for me who the hell thought it was a good idea to put the grandstand where it is i would never pay extra to go and watch form up there far from it i would maybe pay extra to avoid being up there
  18. glasgow were a little unlucky tonight very good guest in nick morris but is joe screen injured or is he with holding his services good old title tatle says the later
  19. ben barker rode last night in eliete league and rode well but that dont seem to count thease days as being fit for prem league
  20. guests booked for friday so that sugests it will be the case for rest of season
  21. not at this stage of the season for a injured rider
