This is a sad day for Workington Speedway and I find it incredible that Keith Denham is criticised for his promotion of the Comets.
Here we have a successful local business man who has, from significant contributions from his own pocket, kept the sport running in Workington during the most difficult financial period in history!
Not only that, since taking over, he has shown a genuine desire to put together teams which are capable of winning things, and it is my belief that only injuries this season will stop us winning the Premier League. The genuine supporters will, I know, feel the same as I do and sympathise with Keith and all his loyal team, but fully understand that the losses that are being incurred now are simply unsustainable.
The people who should take a look at themselves are those who continually have a go at the promotion with no basis at all to their narrow minded comments. Such like people may feel that they have, in a strange way, won - but today there are no winners, we are all losers as speedway at
Workington looks likely to close.
To Tony Mole, Keith Denham, Tony Jackson, the late Ian Thomas and all the teams of helpers over the years - THANKS, IT'S BEEN GREAT
