  1. naa , its the same one . i should know. but he gave it a go, unlike some on here . but life goes on . should i delete this thread or is it keeping everyone happy ? B.T.W. who did actually cause the demise of workington speedway ?
  2. i wonder who will get the finishing drum solo !
  3. remind me again where the sheffield thread is and the poole thread . they dont know where they will be in 2020 . they have 2 threads each . i expect come friday two of the threads will be wiped out . maybe even the newcastle one .. also why is the eurosport thread in the premiership section ?
  4. i , you were correct all along . here was me thinking i was keeping the worky thing going ( did not think of putting it in the discussions thread ) silly me . so as long as folk dont post on this thread, it will die a slow death . as you say thj , its not a scnny thing , it was a godfrey thing and i was not the only one who commented on the way the fixtures were being done with scunny . i think even tj and shazza had an input . regarding my ole man . he did take on a dying sport @ workington (as did Laura ) and ran it for a few years . kept it going as long as he could and kept the sport in the town . i find it a bit nasty from you to say he failed . he did pass it on tho . he enjoyed every second of it . so just how bad was my family treated . thats a new one on me ! .............. so lets not post on here !. P.S. yer typing is letting you down from pervious posts .
  5. just trying to keep the workington name alive on the forum .
  6. yep , i agree with that . better still pull the thread .
  7. i can see me paying Berwick a visit this season . but that £20 gonna take some finding ..
  8. at no time in the conversation did mr Steve Whitehead tell me to ... go forth and multiply .... as you put it . he was very clear in his words and those were not in the conversation . part of the deal was the apology . thats what Steve required from me . two weeks later he even passed a comment of how the apology was worded .... in typical jenga style , as he put it . i really dont want to drag this topic down any further , so perhaps this conversation should cease and not make it a hot topic during the close season ..
  9. will his sat nav wok that far north ?
  10. anyone that complained about food , drink . still went to support the comets. maybe did not go the the cafe as often tho . but they still supported the main product . when people had a bad cup of tea/coffee , there was no use asking for another drink/chips or burger because you were only going to get the same product as a replacement . also if you looked back ,the crowds were falling off even when stoney was riding .there ..
  11. in reply to THJ and his multi comments , i agree with most of them . but the customer is king . i and many others still attended workington speedways last season , a glorious one at that .. the product could have lasted a bit longer than it did . the cafe stuff, many fans tried to make it known about the quality of certain items . supporters where i stood still bought 50/50 ticket and even still supporters the cafe . sure , i have not been the best customer that workington had , but i did not close the unofficial forum down . all they had to do was to pull my membership , no more me ..limp chips and warm tea/coffee was a regular thing but it got to the point when enough was enough . you will always get fans disagreeing with promotions of any sport . its human nature . if you dont make the management aware ,then they dont do anything about it .i sent comet dan (moody) a pm about the condition of the food etc . i had no reply and it just carried on . will i return if it returns . of course. thats if THJ lets me in . MERRY CHRISTMAS everyone , war is over .lol
  12. i think the only the people who bought season tickets for the 2019 season will know whats happening about any reimbursement of any funds oweing to 2019 season ticket holders . they will be going down the correct routes in order to retrieve money . its a patience game .. sorry to say .
  13. i think your answer is before your post on this thread . ! it requires reading from the start . there are only two pages to read . the answerIS on this thread .. oops , now three pages .
  14. maybe any bond/assets are frozen by the HMRC or whoever pulled the plug on the club ..
  15. how things have moved on in most forms of motorsport .
  16. i think it was VW that had a form of rev limiter built into the early rotor arms of their ignition system . when the centrifugal force spun the rotor arm past a certain RPM , a small spring would open up and cut out the electrical circuit to the dizzy cap and the revs simply stopped . dont think they have anything like that nowadays . its all ecu,s and other things .. but as they say on here , the moment you back the throttle off , as speedway bike speeds up ! jeez , is that the time ?
  17. that will be about 10 of us then , seeing our crowds were so thin !
  18. i have been self employed for 16 years in the motor trade , ran a fleet of taxis . think i had all the F1 drivers ! a few years @ Sellafield newk site ... onto repairing chips n cracks in windscreens in all forms of vehicles , commercial vehicle mech . repairs to boats , city n guilds in mig welding and a few other things that tie into the motor trade . put my own cash into worky speedway to take it over from George Graham .. all long serving jobs never let anyone down with anything , inc bills . never ripped anyone off either . left with a clean sheet . ..... no need to be sorry for the delay, we put no time limit on the reply . looks like i am back in the forum groove .
  19. never went into hiding . always on here, like it or not . so who am i ?
  20. a quadruple winning side . who can beat that ? belated congratulations on this great feat .. maybe more to come !
  21. Mr Pinny has probably never seen Mr Jensen ride ! not even ont telly .....
  22. has he ever been away ? he has been a regular poster on here .
  23. i suppose he will now become an aussie and ditch his uk meal ticket . just . think , no more aussies in the British championship and you can water the track as much as you like .
