  1. If we get through to the Play offs this weekend, the first leg will be away at Poole a week today. Playoffs are Live on BSN
  2. Well Cookie is there 😂 Lawson also rode in Cookie's testimonal and they are now team mates again!
  3. Will probably be very surprising if this goes ahead, the amount of rain we've had over the last 2 nights hours is ridiculous. One bonus is that there is a strong drying wind which will make a difference, but i'd imagine the area by the pits gate and onto the track will have been well under water this morning. This was the scene down by the Travelodge by Northside bridge this morning
  4. Thought we were going to hit the curfew there. Eric Boocock wasn’t giving the mic back They aren’t half dragging this meeting out
  5. Batchelor wearing Cookies kevlars, did he forget his own 😆
  6. Congrats! Just saw the photo of him leaving the hospital 👶
  7. He isn't there tomorrow, Antti takes his place in the pairs meeting
  8. Correct yeah, Antti Vuolas replaces him in the pairs.
  9. Yeah Starke a good signing if at reserve and reliable for at 6/7 points a meeting from 5 rides, as opposed to the 1/2 points we were often getting combined. To put into context of how poor our reserves have been prior to signing Starke.. 53+10 from 110 rides (McGurk + Liebmann combined) Starke - 23+4 from 22 rides so far on his own...
  10. Broken right hand and dislocated left shoulder unfortunately. Comets just updated on Social media. 2 guests now required for the next few meetings at least
  11. Judging by how important it is to win at home as proved this season I think it will be something like this. Believe you could probably make the playoffs on 1 away win this season. Cook 8.42 Batch 8.38 Tate 6.96 Antti 6.29 New rider 4.00 Starke 3.50 New Rider 2.00 39.55 on current GSA’s I watched Starke practicing after the meeting yesterday and was really impressed with the way he was attacking the track in the same way Cookie/Tate do
  12. Woeful I’m afraid, good job we have Starke now
  13. Yet again you continue to spout absolute bollocks. You only do it to divert attention away from your shambles of a club. Saw your comments on the Comets FB when the Plymouth meeting was postponed about being ‘cheats’ and you were laughed off. Not touchy, we just don’t suffer fools like you lightly up here.
  14. The situation was explained by Stewart Dickson yesterday and that’s more than anyone needs to know. If you know West Cumberland hospital, it will come as a surprise to no one. He will be back soon enough, and also riding for both his teams in the Play offs
  15. So the Race for 4th and the final Play-off starts to get interesting this weekend. Assuming Poole, Oxford, Scunthorpe have already qualified there are still 4 teams who can take the final spot. Have only disregarded Berwick and Edinburgh from this list. Scunthorpe have Poole and Oxford left at home, so would only have to win 1 of those, given how strong they are at home it's unlikely they end in 2 defeats. Who will make it? _____________________________ 4th Redcar Rode 14 Meetings 14 Points Meetings remaining Plymouth (H) Agg 4 point lead Glasgow (A) Agg 10 point lead Max points - 20 _______________________________ 5th Workington Rode 13 Meetings 14 Points Meetings remaining Berwick (A) Berwick (H) Plymouth (H) Agg 4 point lead Max Points - 22 _______________________________ 6th Glasgow Rode 10 Meetings 11 Points Meetings remaining Edinburgh (A) Plymouth (A) Agg 26 point lead Edinburgh (H) Oxford (H) Oxford (A) Redcar (H) Agg 10 point deficit Max Points - 27 _______________________________ 9th Plymouth Rode 11 Meetings 10 Points Meetings remaining Glasgow (H) Agg 20 point deficit Redcar (A) Agg 4 point deficit Workington (A) Agg 4 point deficit Poole (H) Agg 20 point deficit Oxford (H) Agg 12 point deficit Max Points - 25
  16. Ultimately it shows how daft the sport can be at times. Workington and Glasgow chasing the final Play Off spot and 2 of Glasgow’s riders are here riding for us to try and take 3 points
  17. The last couple of away meetings have been frustrating without the full team. Hopefully we are all back at Berwick next Saturday for a chance of a win. Fair play to Batchelor tonight
  18. They aren’t missing for the same reason Confirmed it’s R/R at Number 1 and Dayle Wood at Number 8! Presumably will have a guest for tomorrow
  19. Afraid not, only 6 riders in the pits. So would hope it’s R/R to stand some form of chance
  20. Unconfirmed but probably no facility, would be R/R if there was. Dayle Wood is here and walked the track with the team
  21. No turns out not, Dayle Wood replacing. Play offs knackered
  22. He will be yeah, he’s riding at for us at Redcar tonight
