  1. He was a major disappointment for workington last season anyway, I think he would even admit to that himself
  2. 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
  3. 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
  4. Can't gate for toffee, there are far better riders available at this level imo an more importantly he will not come cheap
  5. Why? He is on the downward spiral now in afraid; an was not a number 1 for peterbourgh
  6. Kyle howarth is still a workington asset, wonder of they will recall him
  7. God please no. Way overrated gating tart. A poor man's Richard Lawson imo
  8. 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.
  9. Why stage this meeting at Glasgow? It makes no sense at all. It's a one line track so the racing isn't going to be anything special, the viewing from the new terracing is extremely poor an the stadium capacity is low.
  10. 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.
  11. 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.
  12. 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.
  13. 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
  14. Dan Bewley and Kyle Bickley will both be workington comets riders in 2018 so I am led to believe
  15. 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
  16. 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.
  17. 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.
  18. 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.
  19. I really don't know where to start with this. Having been a speedway supporter for over 30 years and attending tracks all over the country, I have never been anywhere near as disappointed in a rider as I was with James sarjent last night. The rider that had scored 12 points the previous evening for Glasgow tigers. Three times he went through the tapes and in my opinion he went through the tapes on purpose. Each time he went off 15 meters did not try at all then decided he would remove his helmet and stick his fingers up shouting and gesturing to the crowd, the crowd which had young children and family's in attendance. If that wasn't enough he then decided to rip his comets bib off an throw it on the direction of the owner of the club. What a pathetic excuse of a man. It is blatenly obvious what he is doing, he is using workington comets to lower his average and imo iv a feeling he will end up at Glasgow next season, although after what I witnessed last night why any club would want to employ this sad excuse of a man baffles me. After all don't we try an promote speedway as a family sport? The referee from last night should send a report to the bspa and action should be taken. I feel so sorry for the owner (Laura morgan) of workington speedway. We should not have to stick with a man, in fact he is no man as no man would act like him (sarjent) did lastnight, anyway we should not have to put up with him without signing anyone else. He should be banned not just from workington but from British speedway. No one likes a cheat, an he is cheating the club an the paying public, cheating with his average with next season in mind. But what is worse than a cheat? An immature cheat with a serious attitude problem with a lack of respect.

  21. Tom "half a lap behind" Wooley with be number 7 as our promotion have totally given up an seen to have no intention of booking anyone else.
  22. Your promotion must be on drugs if they are using James sarjent. He is the worst rider I hav ever seen in a comets race bib.
  23. Is there any Ipswich fans out there that could do us a favour??? Take James sarjent back to Ipswich with you an never let him return anywhere near Cumbria
  24. What is wrong with cookie? Doesn't seem the same since a bad world cup in Poland/poor British gp
  25. Just drove past the Derwent park, the sun is shining an they are out watering the track. All good for tonight
