Workington Comets ‏@OfficialComets 3m Workington Comets would like to welcome Simon Lambert as replacement for Chris Mills. Full story to follow later

Fair point but Rossiter did say that when interviewed, that if he had been on the other side of things he might be a bit more keener to keep things going.

Don't know if its been posted on this thread yet but I remember Michal Makovsky plus mechanic having a more than eventful trip down to Somerset a few seasons ago.

As a neutral last Sunday I thought it was an excellent meeting, on a decent track, there was passing and riders could race each other. No better example of that was Danny King in Ht13, going off 15m he passed one Ipswich rider and was hot on the heels of the other by the end.

Cook is so much head and shoulders above anything else in the PL, his performance tonight has been pretty shameful.

Will Fisher be ok after his "injury" that saw him miss todays meeting at Scunthorpe.

And what a day that will be.

So we know what Mr Fisher`s been doing today.

There wasn't to many Diamonds giving their team a sniff last night, and look what happened. Edinburgh are a decent team in great form but certainly not unbeatable.

Davey broke a thigh racing at Sheffield for Edinburgh, I guess he is still needing more surgery to take out the metal work he needed in his leg. No disrespect to him but I don't think he is the answers to Newcastle's problem even if he had been fully fit.

Mudgway not racing speedway anymore, Davey is injured and working as mechanic for Claus Vissing, IMO Chris Mills did little wrong last night.

Giving the amount of fans that turned up to their last home meeting, not amongst their own fans it seems.

Will he organise a whip round for his loss.

I think the Monarchs will be a tougher nut to crack than the Witches were last night, though another performance like last night will certainly give Edinburgh something to think about.

It tells me there are some very silly people in Scunthorpe.

Newcastle fans should be hugely proud of their team this morning giving the effort they put in last night, a victory all the more remarkable when Newcastle had a weakened team and one of their better riders (Lindgren) didn't exactly have one of his better nights. Rider of the night was King, his ride in Ht13 from 15m was incredible, to get second was one thing but he was actually challenging for the lead. Credit to for Mills who was only dropped from Workington 24hrs previous, he fought hard throughout and his points went along way to helping Newcastle get their win. Excellent meeting, decent track, good night of speedway.

Condolences to friends and family. Ride in Peace.

Hang on, I`d argue the vast majority of this forum have no experience of ever having used a dirt deflector or ever raced a bike come to that, so our opinions aren't worth squat, we only pay hard earned money at the turnstiles of tracks up and down the Country, that's all.

No need for that, Mr Rising made a perfectly reasonable point. Anyway like it or not dirt deflectors seem they are here to stay, so the riders will have to make the best of it.

Could be an idea to stand in a different place next time.

Although its nor exactly local, there`s a ODI at Durham today, might be an idea to keep an eye on that. At the minute there`s plenty blue sky`s and sunshine.

I`m sure the Newcastle promotion know what they are doing, and will get it right in the end, but I think the Newcastle team was stronger before they made the changes.

If you were there in the audience then I hope you enjoyed your night, if you were on stage then the thought of you in a tootoo is not a particular attractive one for a Sunday morning. Grajconek would've been on his way to or at Lakeside where he should've been riding for Poole, that meeting was called off mid-late afternoon.

We don't want to be upsetting people.

Surely Workington have to drop another rider, 42-90 minus 3-05 is 39-05, leaving only 2-65 to put them back up to the 42-50 limit.
