scaramanga Posted August 26, 2014 Report Share Posted August 26, 2014 £21 to get in but you also get to see workington v ryehouse mods dont want me to tell you its a double header so had to list 2 different posts hopefully we can get enough publicity for thease meetings to allow all who want to take advantage off 2 meetings for £21 to make there way up to workington Mod note: don't talk rubbish you were reminded it was a thread per meeting nothing else and certainly not that you couldn't say it was a double header.

You cant just pay to get in for the 2nd fixture in a double header , so a twinned heading is surely correct 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Lucan Posted August 26, 2014 Report Share Posted August 26, 2014 Next three Saturday's are now double headers at Worky, weather permitting!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topaz325 Posted August 26, 2014 Report Share Posted August 26, 2014 Workington away at Plymouth on Friday then a double header on Saturday then an afternoon fixture at Scunthorpe on Sunday... a tortuous weekend for man and machine.....not an ideal situation Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Lucan Posted August 30, 2014 Report Share Posted August 30, 2014 Much better opposition from Scunny, much more competitive racing and some cracking races included!! Definitely worth the wait, nip and tuck for most if not all of the meeting and culminated in probably two of the best races I've seen here this season, Joe Jacobs just got the best run in Ht 14 and stayed in front of Josh Auty for almost 3 laps and forcing the best out of Josh just to stay with him never mind get passed, I think that the more he rides this track the better he's getting, definitely a keeper if we go again next year!! Ride of the night tho, imo, Auty again Ht15 absolutely superb, right out of the top drawer, to be passed by two flying Comets in Josh and Kyle who looked to be disappearing into the distance then hunting them down again rounding Kyle off bend two and back up the inside of Josh off 3/4 had to be seen, speed, skill and class worth the money on it's own!! The one sad part of it all tho, the booing of Auty on the way round after the race, totally uncalled for and totally indefensible, the guy rode extremely well all night never put a foot wrong and deserved better, give the guy some bloody credit he earned it in my book!! Word for David Howe too at reserve, 12pts a real ace in the hole for Scunny down there, showed what a bit of experience can bring to the party!! Good night's work tho, 6pts in total helps us no end, slightly less even points spread for this meeting but still worthy for effort, Josh/Kyle the stand out's with a really good try from Joe and solid performances from Rene, Mason and Ricky, only Simon missing out this time maybe dodgy wrist playing up a bit after two meetings? Not a bad night entertainment wise for £21, track held up pretty well considering tho a bit too much grading slowing things down mean't we "just about" made the curfew time, but we wont mention that!! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stratton Posted August 31, 2014 Report Share Posted August 31, 2014 Great to see Josh really going well again,i hope he pushes on and then gets his deserved EL slot back for next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topaz325 Posted August 31, 2014 Report Share Posted August 31, 2014 (edited) Scunthopre were a much better team than the earlier Rye match but even they had Klindt and Birks a little off form...Auty was very good , as for the booing Speedway fans have long memories. A very long night of Speedway, these double headers are not ideal but we are where we are! Well done again to Joe Jacobs, a great wee rider.

topgun Posted August 31, 2014 Report Share Posted August 31, 2014 Well done to the boys they all upped a gear last night as for the booing we have long memories of auty taking kenny ingels out at workington finishing his career 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

topgun Posted August 31, 2014 Report Share Posted August 31, 2014 You don't change my mind it is not the first time and it will not be the last .A good rider does not take riders out.Stoney was a good rider and a hard rider but he did not take riders out . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's fine then, that's your opinion, but I'm talking about last night, did he take anyone out last night to achieve what he did or did he race for it? I'm not going to keep harping on about something that happened four years ago and let that incident keep clouding my judgement, yes, he was reckless at times but he wasn't, not at any stage yesterday, we saw exactly what he can do when he put's his racing head on, sure time will tell if he's changed but based on what I witnessed I'll give him the benefit of the doubt, great racing from him and worthy of credit!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jenga Posted September 1, 2014 Report Share Posted September 1, 2014 maybe the richard hall doo had some thing to do with josh going from sinner to saint. think he may realise that if he carries on with his manovers , he could end up amarked man.I.M.O.

Or even using that tired old cliche, "the wake up call" worth it for me if he rides like that all of the time!! in all respect to josh auty his ht 15 performance was maybe inspired by workingtons own josh pushing him out on bend 2 scrable man came up the inside of auty and they were definatly rubbing against each other till auty went wide allowing both workington riders past all be it only temporeraly great ride from auty to pass them both again but he had to work even harder to get past workingtons new reserve joe jacobs in heat 14 Absolutely he did, Hts14/15 my nominated races as best seen in ages, and I say again, if we go next year it's Jacobs/Lambert for me!!
