topaz325 Posted April 5, 2013 Report Share Posted April 5, 2013 (edited) Workington Comets meet the Redcar Bears at Derwent Park in this League Cup encounter and the Bears will hope to improve on there recent home defeat by the Newcastle Diamonds. The Comets will have new recruit in Chris Mills in for Mason Camton who has been refused a visa entry in to the UK. Hopefully Workington will track a full team with Tero Aarnio returning from injury having missed the away defeat at Newcastle. Weather...............it will probably be COLD.

stoneylegend Posted April 5, 2013 Report Share Posted April 5, 2013 (edited) I was surprised when I seen the score Redcar being beaten at home by Newcastle as I rated the Bears team so I don't know what to think now! However we do tend to get some strange results at the start of the new season? I'll go for around a 10 point win for the Comets. Always enjoy our meetings against Redcar heres a question how will Kus go...... 3 points or 13? we shall see! ;-) Edited April 5, 2013 by stoneylegend Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

comet10 Posted April 6, 2013 Report Share Posted April 6, 2013 Comets looked good tonight score could if been a lot bigger if it was not for the brilliant Dyer, Rusty's move in heat 12 was excellent as well, a very enjoyable meeting 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scaramanga Posted April 6, 2013 Report Share Posted April 6, 2013 micky dyer by far the class of redcars team others didnt look too interested workington reserves looked ok and chriss mills rode well much better than what most people had him down to Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stoneylegend Posted April 6, 2013 Report Share Posted April 6, 2013 (edited) What a nights Speedways miles better then last week, the racing tonight was top drawer All the Comets rode brillantly and done us proud. thnaks to Millsy who came in to ride at short notice and didnt dissapoint! Dyer was by far the best Bear on show and was involved in alot of the close racing. Matej Kus...... What has happened to that guy?? The only downside to the meeting for me was the lack of away support from the Redcar fans you lot used to brighten up our meetings with all your red banners and vocal support come back Bears fans you are missed!! All in all a enjoyable night Edited April 6, 2013 by stoneylegend 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topaz325 Posted April 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2013 Not a bad meeting on another cold night at Derwent Park, the score was kept close until ht 6 where Tero and Richard got a 5-1 over Kus and Greenwood (Kus came in last after a poor gate!). A good all round team performance for the Comets, Chris Mills got five points and would have probaly been seven if not for a chain coming off in ht 4. Ride of the night came from Rusty Harrison in ht 12 when he passed Summers (ef) on turn 3 and 4 then went after Dyer and passed him on the backstraight on the last lap. Dyer was the star rider for the Bears and will not be in the reserve birth long if he can carry on this form. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taylorj Posted April 7, 2013 Report Share Posted April 7, 2013 A great night of speedway , all the Comets played their part and its great to see Rusty back to his former self, his pass in heat 12 was awesome , Rene just keeps getting better and better , and credit to Chris Mills he looked on the pace and would have finished with 7 points other than the EF he had. Onto Redcar, what the hell was Kus playing at !!! He was dire, inches away from going through the tape twice then his next two outings he didn't get in front so just toddled along at the back , very disappointing performance from your number 5. Rider of the night for the bears stand forward Micky Dyer, absolutely fantastic effort from the reserve, fairplay to him his win over Rene and Rusty in heat 15 was great, even getting a standing ovation from a lot of Comets fans in the grandstand, he won't be in the reserve berth very long . Heres hoping we go over to Redcar on Thurs and collect all 4 points, we need them to put pressure on Newcastle to top the League Cup table . Well Done Comets Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All in all a enjoyable night when your getting well beat at home it does seem a bit of a waste of money travelling up and down the country to watch your team get stuffed week in week out, i may sound a little fickle but 40 odd years of travelling everywhere to watch speedway does that too you. to be honest i was actually on call all this week (gritting) so i couldnt of made it even if i wanted to, but im sure you will see the travelling red army on their travels when the results come and the weather gets a ittle warmer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
comet49 Posted April 7, 2013 Report Share Posted April 7, 2013 Liked the parade, better than riders coming from the stand individually. Also no delays and they got on with it. Agree about Kus, Michael Max got it right about him, he can be good but it appears not often. Good race 15, Dyer was good throughout, roll on Thurs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Django Posted April 8, 2013 Report Share Posted April 8, 2013 Great riding from Rusty and Rene on Saturday, Millsy looks promising, Tero looked back up to pace by the end of the meeting, Kyle and Rich looked tired after their long week. Ashley just needs some confidence in his ability and machinery. All in all a promising start. Thought Mickey Dyer was superb too, especially in heat 15, holding off a charging Rene, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
