Great respect to danny phillips the lad knows the management dont wont him the fans dont like him yet he still turns up and does his best , last night other riders turned down programmed rides claiming bike troubles when it was clearly running young phillips just got on with it with little help that i saw from his team mates .

I thought that but after talking with him he came across as a decent bloke with the sport at heart !

Watching from the pits all season ty comes across as a.loner who gets on with the job , i didnt see him and jacko having words butl later on ty was having a go at jeering riders up before heats and was out on track with the rest of the boys helping eachother so perhaps put it down to wanting to win for his "words" with jacko.had a crac with mr godfrey and some interesting thoughts on the comets and speedway in general, not a bad fellow as perhaps we make out !

If u read the.post u will see its.pretty simple 5th at glasgow which is their chosen race night for this season and the 6th at wton on a.sat which is their chosen (some might say forced) race night simples !!

Talk tonight that we race at home on the 6th glasgow want to race on the sunday , cook would be missing sat night and they can use a guest, we would have klint missing on the sunday no guest ?? Nl replacement hope the bspa force glasgow go race on their chosen race day of friday .

Talk was matty couldnt get time off work lingren just couldnt be arsed to get on a plane !

Yes its a bit rough on us old dogs

Noise tests were done at the dog track in the late 80s or early 90s am sure they failed !

Nice day not far away in durham !

They have tried most of them the last few years cant wait to see what day the use next season , having "bought" cookie to win the league they will run anyday that goes against the comets wishes !

Shame cook wasnt needed for practice in poland next sat lol.

We have " jenga "at workington.

But where are those 6000 odd.people on a normal sunday dont think 6000 scots rugby league fans made a treck to derwent park !

Been talk of a.new stadium for years now with a 6000 capacity, town get600 crowds reds 450? comets?? we dont need a new stadium to stand empty its a dream for some a nightmare for everyone else.

Anyone.confirm are.we riding at home.fri night?

Bit of a after the lord mayor's show meeting tonight awful track and poor racing i would give up.watching that everyweek , thank the lord summers was riding we didnt look good at all.

First away track i went was berwick in 1972 first record we heard their was layla by eric.clapton at newcastle now 46 yrs later and they have just played it , nothing changes !

A good win at rough park and at home to lakeside and we could finish top but not in time for the pick in the playoffs. If we face glasgow 5 and 6 october good weekend to race them!

Your on the nail with that and i think it was the newcastle reporter in the sppedway star that had us as champions in the bumper march edition .

Mr hunter takes great delight that the bandits only took 3 points and not 4 , is he the most biast reporter the sport has ?

Cant wait to read mr hunters report on this !!!

Just proves money talks and a verbal contract aint worth the paper its written on, but a guest for someone getting married one more reason the sport is going down the pan.

I spoke to him after he rode for us 2 weeks ago and he said he was doing all our home meetings rest of season !

Prob just me then but i thought we.didnt want to be 6 up before ht 10! Although barker did do a tac sub in ht 11.

Anyone.any thoughts on rene,s "efforts" in ht 9 against redcar ?
