Re the Chris Harris situation , it’s a bit like saying we are not sacking you but there is another job 100 miles away if you want it. Personally I,m on the side of Bomber in this case, he signed a contract to ride for Leicester for 2023 .....will be interesting reading in next weeks Star . Major upheaval with the sport for 2024 , then again this is said most years but there are less and less clubs in existence every year.

Met office is a bit more reliable than the BBC forecast.

Harris in this weeks Star thought about quitting Premier League after this .....er transfer of riders.

This weekend sees the Kent team make the very long journey up to Cumbria to take on the Comets in this League encounter. In the away fixture last weekend the Royals came out on top 50-40 but there was no lack of effort from all the Workington team . Hopefully the weather will be ok as there are showers forecast for most of Saturday .

Some embarrassing comments on here.

Quite a journey! It’s a lifetime . Kyle has a lot of equipment for sale on Facebook .

So looks like no live coverage on Eurosport this weekend for the GP.

Who are you referring to? Connor Bailey who scored 12 points on Sunday including 2 wins in heats 13 and 15.

Not on Eurosport though.

Visited Sittingbourne yesterday for the Worky meeting and whilst the stadium is not the best to say the least the effort and enthusiasm of the promotion , staff and fans is evident. The Leagues and stricture is only as strong as its weakest link, the evidence is clear for all to see in the way that so many clubs are in trouble of closure . Some big decisions to be made this winter if not earlier in the way the three or indeed maybe two the Leagues are made up. Very nice of the promoter to come over and chat to the Comets fans .

Who is Boxall in for ?

How about Leicester Lions v Ipswich Witches Premiership 31/07/203 (time).

Great meeting, well done Poland and all the teams all went down to fine margins, in the beginning it looked like a dogfight between GB and Poland , so well done to the Aussies and Denmark for keeping it close. It was evident that changes would be made in the nominated heats for Denmark and GB . Only six points between first and fourth , just shows how even the teams were.

True everything up in the air with the amount of tracks facing problems in running next year , maybe a slightly weaker championship and a weaker Premiership....two League set up , would probably mean the loss of the likes of Doyle , Bewley and Holder etc ...who knows ?

I think a move to championship racing would. be disastrous.for the Comets at this stage.

Depends on the date of this fixture.

Last team standing wins the League .

Who is 100% committed to the Premiership (?) next year Belle vue, Ipswich , Sheffield .

Well I enjoy any Speedway on the telly ( er. Well maybe not !) , stands by for flak , why name riders for the last four heats then two minutes later make a change , GB/ UK/ England did it on Tuesday also. The attempted telephone call issue to the ref by Nicki was comedy gold, he knew the ref was not going to change his mind but just upsetting the flow. Good to see teams like France and Finland mixing it and winning heats against the big boys.

Not a good situation....if anyone needs a break its Chris Harris!

I believe it all went wrong for the ref in heat 5 , he could have held his hand up and said I made a mistake all four back no warnings, this then had a detrimental on heat 15 where there was very slight movement from Wright. A bad day at the office.

Well done Connor , some great racing, what a weekend for Worky

Good coverage from Eurosport apart from the drone footage .

Agree Freddie does some hard moves but that race the bike just ran away from him
