  1. Robson did very well to get from the PLRCto Newcastle a couple on weeks ago, but the chances are that both club& rider will prioritise their KOC Final
  2. For the benefit of those who can't be bothered to plough through the earlier excrement, somebody suggested Simon Stead for Sheffield, to which someone seemingly with their finger on the pulse of, well, something other than Workington Speedway, put forward the "information" that Stead would be the first signing of returning Promoter Tony Mole. As history shows, the accuracy of that statement was confined to the correct spelling of the words "Simon", "Stead", "Tony", "Mole" and "Workington". Other than that, the statement was wider of the markthan could be imagined - even in the head of whoever dreamt up the deluded suggestion.
  3. I didn't realise there were more plans afoot. Let's hope there nore succesful (from all aspects) than the last alterations.
  4. Interesting alternative view from Alan Dick, in the local rag who, while disappointed to have lost was comforted by the racing, that, in his opinion wasn't just "good" but was in fact "very good". Expect more of he same then (?)
  5. Yet another oneā€¦ Come up with a date or dates when the meeting (s) can be staged so that the final isn't delayed into November & they'll stage the meetings. It's the same weather issue that has screwed up the Play Offs and the League Cup. Nothing new that's needs its own chapter written.
  6. It mainly illustrates that while Bach is a useful rider, he'll never be a number one. Bottled it before his injury when briefly at number one at Newcastle and did the same thing at Workington until Lawson overtook him in the averages. He may well improve his average, he might even go EL at some stage, but not via a number one position
  7. Arse Fire - have you worked out whether extending the season into November was me being OTT or sensible if you suggest it. You might consider getting some medication for your attention deficit disorder. White Nightie - as Pikeys aren't a racial group, it's not a racist comment, so you're vaguely wrong. Again.
  8. Merely a genetic suggestion that would account for the inability to produce a coherent answer and coincdently apparently suffering from the same aural defect. Read into it what you see fit, that your perogative.
  9. So, that's the response when either of you can't answer a straightforward question. Probably a side effect of pikey inbreeding in Cumbria then.
  10. As you're happy to bitch all day elsewhere about Edinburgh not being able to restage Friday's meeting so it's not fair on Workington, when was the restaging date offered by Workington for the League Cup Semi Final? Specifically.
  11. Yeah, ending the home fixtures with (another) defeat, that would be a cunning plan. No one would have been surprised - or cared - if Berwick had been eliminated from the competition today. Now John Anderson get the chance to cover the losses from a home fixture in which very few people will care enough to turn out & pay to watch as well as paying wages for the away leg.
  12. Alden MIGHT just be required by Berwick at Workington & if you think "Scunny have lent Nick Morris" you really have no idea how things work.
  13. Exactly, I don't understand the "which league" comment unless they're looking at the EL lol.
  14. So is John Anderson talking cobblers, or have you stepped in as sponsor? Whatever there's left of the NL after the winter surely isn't the answer.
  15. The programme nots from the Redcar programme pointed out that the awarding of the meeting doesn't guarantee their running next year - it'll be at Berwick IF they run. Less than joined up thinking, but that's what was written.
  16. Great Result? 2013 just moved 3 or 4 grand closer towards not happening - unless of course Shielfield Park is packed to the gunnels on Saturday.
  17. The day of the PL Pairs, England v SouthAfrica was due to be played at Cardiff. 50 overs match. England faced less than 6 overs before the game was abandoned. Batsmens' scores don't appear in their records & the match was never restaged. "Accounted for"? No result. Try reading all the post - that'll prevent the final from going ahead at Somerset.
  18. Cricket - The are any number of County games, Test matches, One Day Internationals, you name it that don't reach a conclusion because of rain. They share out league points, even for matches that never start. They even have a method of determining results (the equivalent of which for speedway would have the bobble hats in dreamland). The Duckworth / Lewis method (sexy name) was dreamt up as a number of one day cup matches were determined by a bowler from each side taking it it turn to bowl at a single stump, often in the rain with the team of the first bowler to hit the stump progressingto the next round of the competition. Only in Speedway, eh? Got a date to suggest for the restaging yet?
  19. So you can cope with playing with your pikey mates / extended family, but when it comes to a reasonable question like "when do you suggest that the Edinburgh v Workington Play Off Group Match should be rearranged" you can't conjure up a reply.
  20. When are you going to run the meeting(s) then? Give me a date when the meeting & subsequent meetings could be run? If it's a case of "pulling out the stops", which stops do you want pulling out? Edinburgh have Fridays & Saturdays - so that would stop the final going ahead at Somerset. Unless you're suggesting that Planning Premission should be sought to run on another day? Make a suggestion.
  21. Well said? What was well said? C'mon then, suggest ANYTHING as an alternative. Newcastle didn't win the league by the way, take off your bobble hat, join the 21st Century & you'll see that they were eliminated.
  22. Face fitting obviously is an expression you've just heard & want to keep repeating, but c'mon on then suggest an alternative - ANY alternative - other than running through to the back end of November or longer.
