Olga Posted January 22, 2017 Report Share Posted January 22, 2017 That's bang on HT ... Roynon and Campton as 4th and 5th average classified riders in the Comets line up ... they do hold the key to Comets success or failure this season for sure.

You'r right about the optimism at Berwick, Scott Courtney was like a breath of fresh air last year, bringing a lot of enthusiasm to the team as manager and hopefully that will continue now he is promoter. As for Workington, if I was a fan I would think of a few things to look forward to this season. Firstly you have one of, if not the, top rider in the league. Then you have TJ, who I would really liked to have seen back at Berwick. You want entertainment, you'll get it with him. You also have a very decent set of reserves. Williamson will improve and Shuttleworth is a non-stop trier. It won't make many headlines, but the deal the promotion done in the off season with the landlords regarding getting income from food and drink sales will also bring in a lot more income. It won't make a difference on the track but it will give the promotion more financial security and hopefully ease worries about the future. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tapeworm Posted January 23, 2017 Report Share Posted January 23, 2017 You have to remember Campton has had the Visa issues haven't helped meaning he has only had 3 full seasons in England (spending only 1 month at reserve at Glasgow and 2 meetings for Workington). FYI, Glasgow is NOT in England and never has been. If you look at your school atlas, you'll see a line from Gretna across to Berwick. England is the bit below that line. But keep sending us more than our share of UK tax revenues !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gunner85 Posted February 2, 2017 Report Share Posted February 2, 2017 With Craig back in the tam I foresee a good upturn in Workington's fortunes. Apart from his individual performance , I am sure he will upgrade the team spirit. The best part is the side now have 3 Cumbrians in the side.
