  1. Your opening gate at Derwent Park in 1999 was 4,400 when my team opened you up at the invitation of Thomas. After the early euphoria, the gates settled down to about 2200 and you had the biggest number of travelling fans, except for the early days with Newport being top dogs till they hit a slump under Tim Stone. Most Championship clubs have never seen those sort of numbers, so Workington's slump to present day is greater by comparison.
  2. Agreed. And then some on here call Promoters useless.
  3. Don't think so. Thomas created good teams and venues, and when they didn't make money he dropped them. No need for Tony Mole, and he had to remortgage his house when he was duped by his promotion partner.
  4. No back tracking from me. GMM was the one that confirmed it was Workington, but you lot were trying to deny anything happened. Now you know something has been happening you attack the messenger with stupid childish points in desperation. Best of luck to Workington in all your comps and hope that your riders perform for you.
  5. George never mentioned the team involved, so get your bias straight.
  6. Says an alleged fan who in retaliation, suggests we are not running next year, despite the intention has already been made by our promotion. Has yours ? and I am not hoping you don't run next year unlike you.
  7. I quoted it word for word, and it's uo to you if you think it is Tony Jackson. Lost my bet that it would be homer Taylorj first to reply and deny it.
  8. Just quoting facts. Life is different on the other side sometimes.
  9. Yes, the lad just wants to ride and has a contract to do so. Not his fault someone else cocked up the team change.
  10. Interestingly George in his programme notes last week said what a pleasure it had been to work with the riders in Diamonds team this year. He also said "I was recently talking to one of my colleagues from a side that is challenging for honours and although his side have done very well he has had nothing but problems with his riders .......which should have been enjoyable one for him but has been anything but." People can make their own mind up about that.
  11. Proctor has always been like that, thumping pit walls and shouting aloud. He is a moody person and I saw plenty of him when I visited Redcar when he rode for them. His actions last night appear to be very unprofessional, and I'm very pleased that Tony and Steve seem to have said the right things and got a satisfactory performance from him afterwards. Be a shame if the actions of a rider, acting like a petulant child, spoiled the show that all of the team and management have worked hard to get for themselves and their fans. I would never have Ty in my team any year.
  12. Even when teams do announce a no 8 for a meeting, they very rarely use them. Probably used as a standby in case something goes wrong, but not intending to use them anyway. Invariably a reserve is better that the no 8, so stick with the better rider.
  13. Must admit I didn't really mean my last sentence in a gay way, but I get your point.
  14. Depends on what has happened to his BitCoins which at one time he stated he had £600k worth. Wonder if he is still sitting on a fortune ?
  15. Pity it's not being held in Durham and at 1.00pm, but it's not.
  16. I read that, but it wasn't me that stated it. I personally don't think it will be that low.
