Geoff I had a walk down on Saturday looking good, but the weather was against doing the center green, people were putting windows in refs cabin and painting sponsors lounge/cabin. Apparently all electrics wired up and working (THJ must av got wires correct way round ) the new timing transponders were being put in across the start gate area, roll on press and practice and 1st meeting. UTC. Ps was told of some things happening but will wait for official announcement from the promotion

Young Luke sounds very much like his dad Frank trying to get round Wolverhampton and belle Vue many years ago !!

Common sense and speedway don't go together, everyone should know that by now

Never rains in worky just liquid sunshine will probably put water down gor meetings

Press and practice day announced Sat 6th May 12.00 UTC

Can see Cammie knickers walking round the pits with this

Saw the forecast decided to stay in bed rather than an early start fra wukinton

Thanks for info. Tried app and tablet via Google still not taking a payment, it's too late now,. bsn and belle Vue won't be getting my £15 now. Sent message to. bsn for record just in case a payment has been taken without getting the stream

Any one else having problems buying BSN stream had an on screen message for last 10 min " processing your ppaymentis being processed it may take a while " about to give up hope they don't take a payment!!

It's getting closer !!! Plenty of photos and videos on social media of behind closed doors practice yesterday, did not hear the bikes at Seaton as a north east wind was blowing the noise out to sea . Can't wait till may 13 th UTC For anyone with inside information will open practice sessions run before the season? Will help bed the track in and raise money for the club if they go ahead

Am sure Mr Godfrey will sort some rule to suit his needs !!

Late 80'd early 90's 3 of us set off from Workington on good Friday morning meeting at Oxford, got to stadium but rained off 1 hour before meeting start, spent afternoon in Oxford, onto Swindon for evening meeting, dry all day until 6.45 heavens opened meeting called off, long return home to Cumbria 700 mile round trip no speedway but plenty of laughs

But at least he got one

For anyone interested a new comets supporters club is due to be launched soon, info on social media and website. UTC

Seen some photos of the BSN launch, found it very unusual for the Glasgow pair not to have team suits, only one wearing them. And not even any body colours!! Which for a high profile league launch I find it very strange, has Glasgow lost the normal PR team/person they had ??

IMO Workington won't have much home track advantage as it's a new track for every rider, yes the comets riders will have some extra practice but with most riders doing other things, time maybe a limited factor to get in extra practice, and I'm a comets fan, but looking forward to a season of good racing while the young kids improve their speedway riding

Last year qualifying was limited to 1000 people

Good read in this week's speedway star interview with Steve Lawson . 2 months to go UTC

Last year see tickets t+c's said no print outs accepted

Hope you are not on the drink the night before don't want you and the pits going up like a rocket

Last week's speedway star said a feature on the new Workington track is in this week's edition, saw some photos at the weekend, pits up roof still to put on. The viewing terraces/banking starting to green up and looks to be great viewing, maybe THJ has more inside info

As it stands at the moment. Eurosport official provider for British premiership something like 18 meetings and British final, discovery/ Eurosport for GP coverage, then if you subscribe to BSN you can access more premiership meetings, also BSN cover the championship, 36 meetings for around £130 just less than £4 a meeting, a big saving compared to travel from Cumbria to watch some championship meetings

Maybe belle Vue will stream it, this Cumbrian will pay to watch

Redcar 266 m Ashfield 302 m not a great difference, but Conner bailey gonna be riding for Workington and that track will be very similar to Redcar. So could be a benefit to both rider and club

A midweek meeting and if Conner still at number 1 we can have a guest. would Dan Bewley fit
