First thing, glad we are back in 2013. Well done Newcastle on the aggregate win at least Worky went out of a comp on the track, the Comets were so close to going on to a final. Got to say the race between Roynon and Robson in ht 15 was superb, one of the best races seen at DP, well done to both riders.

Sign of the times unfortunatley, other teams such as berwick and Workington struggling too.

As i said nothing to do with the two teams involved in the final, just the way the end of season has finished, the weather and too many comps crammed in to the last month of the season. What happens if Worky beat Newcastle today in the semi and only one weekend left to fulfil the fixture, oh and a PL match against Berwick......

No offence to Somerset or Scunthorpe but it just a farce now.

Just read this................unbelievable...........

Got to agree with you there Screm. Will support any Brit in the GP,S but overall its about seeing the Worlds best riders competing for the GP title not putting in a British rider to satisfy who, SCB/BSPA, the British public, BSI/IMG?

No real surprises for the wildcards, ill be giving my support to Tai next year at Cardiff.

Thanks for the link, some interesting interviews.

No news on Rene today.

Richard Lawson doubtful for this weekend, shoulder injury.

Oh i see the future of Edinburgh.....

? Two weeks time but we are due to be at Edinburgh this comig Friday.

Hopefully Richard and Rene will be back on Friday, cannot see Worky getting any points at Edinburgh but we might just get an aggergate win against Newcastle if all the lads are fighting fit.

Bad year all round injuries , rain offs, threat of closure hanging over Workington Speedway.......still have had some exciting racing at Derwent Park in 2012 on a decent track....oh and some great riders. We have won the Pairs and are still technically in two competitions, so hopeffully we can still grab a trophy. Speedway in 2013 at Workington....i certainly hope so.

Well done to Monarchs for keeping it close at DP, cannot see the Comets getting any points at Edinburgh next Friday but stranger things have happened.............and hopefully its not rain affected. Scunny and Somerset in the final then.

Cookie is a talented rider but to park the bike after the heat in question was just silly , yes the crowd got on his back and he did get revenge in heat 15 , still got the crowd going.

Pipe band in Carlisle, great stuff.

A busy night at Derwent Park with two matches to fit in due to the awful weather this year, with a 18:30hrs start ttime lets hope there are no significant delays. Adult prices £25.00. Adam Roynon hopes to be back racing this weekend, good luck Adam, stay safe lads!!

Friday night and a sore head on Sat morning!!

Wow have not seen that footage of the Gary Stead meeting, all the best for the future Lee. Lee said in the SS that he was in debt to the sum of £5k and together with the injuries could not carry on, also said someting needed to be done to reduce the costs in Speedway as a lot of tracks were suffering financially.

Good to hear Glasgow Speedway is safe for the immediate future at least. Hopefully Workington can be saved too.

Yes but only the income from one attendance instead of two at £15.00 a head or concessions.

Agree Phil, all credible and valid points but there many refs i,m willing to bet would see it differently and as long as there is respect for other peoples point of view then all is well. Probably a major failing of posters on here (me included) to consider other peoples thoughts and opinions.....och well.

Hmmm some start..............

Bach is usually superb at DP (and a few other tracks), not a good score tonight from Worky can see a all S S final.
