The White Knight Posted November 12, 2015 Report Share Posted November 12, 2015 You get arses everywhere. .. must admit, I've never been back to Workington since that day either though... proved they've got a massive bunch of scummy fans over there! The rowdy ones at Newcastle are timid and laughable compared to how the Comet fans were! Nothing wrong with Newcastle Supporters. Â They even used to let me in (and out again) - and I am a Mackem. Â Hopefully they will do again when/if I can return. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadders Posted November 12, 2015 Report Share Posted November 12, 2015 (edited) I've visited around 18 different tracks in Britain and the only two where I have witnessed the home crowd cheering when an away rider fell off was the Workington fans with Lee Complin and then they cheered again when it was announced that he had mashed his hand up and that it was broken in several places, at Cardiff when Pedersen fell AND INCIDENTALLY SEVERAL times at Newcastle when a Berwick rider falls off, mostly I have to say by one person who stands near the door to get up to the bar, avoided Workington for 4 years because of the way that us fans and Lee was treated that day, I don't go to Cardiff anymore and don't enjoy going to Newcastle what so ever I was at Workington that day and can confirm this. If you think that's an isolated incident you're way off the mark. I've heard it at many places, almost come to blows a few times Edited November 12, 2015 by Shads Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

screm Posted November 12, 2015 Report Share Posted November 12, 2015 Never been back to Workington since the Pairs a few years ago, I left Berwick at lunchtime Saturday, arrived home in someone else's car at dawn on Sunday morning, only have to return to Workington for around 9am Sunday to pick up the stragglers from the previous Saturday night, the details of the story you will have to fill in ourselves, though it did involve a film crew, The Waverley Hotel hotel and a night club. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NJC71 Posted November 12, 2015 Report Share Posted November 12, 2015 As an aside I wonder if Christian Henry will be fit/intends to ride next year? I know he had a bad one last year with injury but he would be more than worth a punt on a 4.97 average. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dandelion Posted November 12, 2015 Report Share Posted November 12, 2015 (edited) @diamondspeedway: Big news to be announced tomorrow at 8am, your in for a cracker Diamonds fans #speedway Dan Greenwood as our 3? lol I would imagine news as "big" as this wouldn't be our 3 pointer, but how does people feel about Dan Greenwood back? Or has he signed for someone else and I've missed it? Could it be Richard Lawson? Hasn't signed for Glasgow yet...
