  1. Very poor signing, who puts these teams together at workington? An they wonder why they can't attract a crowd. Also the promotion state klint is a racer? That certainly isn't the klint iv seen, 7.51 wasted. An to think I was worried we might get Aaron summer's, who looks attractive on 8 after seeing what we have just signed on 7.51
  2. Poor signing, specially with the points he's taking up. But Glasgow look strong enough for the rest of the team to carry him
  3. Dan Bewley signs for workington. What a signing, for me he is by far the best kid on the scene without a shadow of a doubt. I think this kid could really push on next year.
  4. Wouldn't of thought where he is based would be a problem as he has rode for the comets before. But this is the type of rider that makes sence, I see more potential/improvement in greaves than I do in Matt Williamson.
  5. Really struggling to see why Glasgow would be interested in Claus vissing??
  6. Really don't understand the fans calling for Williamson back? I just don't think he's worthy of his starting average. But my biggest concern was when he's off the boil in races he doesn't even look on the pace? Certainly some thing the rider needs to look at. If he started at reserve then maybe at a push but I'd want a team where he would stay at reserve for the majority of the season. It's my opinion so don't bite my head of but my opinion is that Matt Williamson has peaked an is now where he is likely to stay ability and point scoring wise.
  7. So u don't think he was keeping his average down on purpose?
  8. James sarjent signs for Glasgow? What a surprise eh? Corrupt is an understatement. But good luck to them both
  9. He was a major disappointment for workington last season anyway, I think he would even admit to that himself
  10. So if what I'm heading is right then it's rip workington speedway. The bspa should hang there heads in shame? Wasn't the agenda to help save clubs? Scunny can seemingly change there race nights at will but we can't? As for Glasgow they are turning into the Poole of the 2nd tier, they two only changed there race night last season. It's not just rider availability or the Craig cook situation it's also stadium availability, Derwent park has been used for a lot more other things on Saturday nights in the past few seasons, this giv the promotion a major problem in continunerty, then fans loose interest, find other things to do of a weekend an the rest as they say is history
  11. I also would not want summer's at dp, gating tart. On similar averages I'd much prefer Charles Wright or someone similar who's going to have a go an race
  12. Can't gate for toffee, there are far better riders available at this level imo an more importantly he will not come cheap
  13. Why? He is on the downward spiral now in afraid; an was not a number 1 for peterbourgh
  14. Kyle howarth is still a workington asset, wonder of they will recall him
  15. God please no. Way overrated gating tart. A poor man's Richard Lawson imo
  16. I personally wouldn't want Harris at workington next season. Been a good rider but unfortunately is on the downward spiral now. In fact he isn't even a number 1 in the so called 2nd tier.
  17. One of Keith's many mistakes. Who in there right mind would dropped Charles Wright for gary Irving, but hey ho all water under the bridge now.
  18. I think everybody would. He finally has futhilled his potential that we all knew he had. Cracking rider now who also rides our track extremely well.
  19. for the record he won't be at Workington either. Do u want to put a wager on that??? I think you'll find he will be.
  20. Easy....we don't need sour grapes just because Britain's two best prospects might dare not ride for the money bags of British speedway an instead fancy representing there local club
  21. Dan Bewley and Kyle Bickley will both be workington comets riders in 2018 so I am led to believe
  22. Wow what a carry on at the end of a brilliant meeting. Worralls dummy was well an truley out. Hope reports that he broke a stewards nose are incorrect. Never seen so much carry on on the pits, everyone was involved. Who needs coronation street haha
  23. I think the problems this year have been a mixture if I'm honest. First of all the 1st bit mistake was signing Roynon in the 1st place, he never got out the reserve berth for a full season prior to this, his equipment and attitude looked questionable an to be honest he was never going to improve. Worth a risk by the promotion? I'm 50/50 on It, as we've seen the rider he could be/once was. I think it's time now that folk accept Adam Roynon is where he is going to be now. Such a shame injury ruined a potentially great rider as imo baring injury he would be a even better rider that Craig cook is right now. The replacement which ever way you look at it has been a complete disaster. That's why imo if an it's a massive if, we do run next year then we need someone who has a knowledge of riding a speedway bike, can spot a rider, would help bring a team spirit an would interact with the crowd. I know just the man for the job, a man who has been seen a lot more at Derwent park this season, an the biggest part of it is that it's a man who the riders and fans would up most respect. I don't think I need to spell it out who the person in question is. The bspa hav done the sport (not just workington) no favours this season. In face it's all a bit of a shambles. The promotion should imo listen to the crowd a little more, how about a suggestion boxed where u could put forward things that would improve speedway on a saturday night? Granted I know some would be acceptable an some not, but hence it would be a suggestion box an not a criticism box. Finally us the fans, I hav had my moans this season I can't deny that, an I do in a way feel for the promotion giving some quite frankly stupid rules brought In this season, but maybe we should get down to Derwent park for the last few meetings, adept that mistakes have been made an hopefully have our great club to suport next season. Can I finally just add that despite some of the problems this year the racing has been excellent so hat's of to all involved with that one. If only we could get rid if the deadly silence an have some upbeat music playing to help the atmosphere. Here hoping for next year, I would be geninually gutted if we loose it.
  24. Yes indeed. Well done to the monarchs. Rick wells was Ricky wells round workington. Always likes both the riss brothers, both have the potential to be very good riders indeed.
  25. The solution is the bspa need to take a long hard look at what they are doing to British speedway. A stupid rule enforced is letting people like that Pratt last night hold clubs to ransom. I wish you could of witnessed it to know I am by no means overreacting. This rule is making a face of the sport an it's yet again the paying public that's suffering. The sad thing is I think the only reason the rule was introduced was to stop poole throwing money right left an centre and strengthening there team for play offs.
