A.N.Other Posted July 27, 2018 Report Share Posted July 27, 2018 Some new dates in case you haven't seen them on the official Comets website... Saturday 11th August : Comets v Sheffield Saturday 18th August : Comets v Ipswich and a reminder :- Sunday 5th August : Comets v Scunthorpe The fixture on Saturday coming, v Newcastle will remain as a KOC meeting and NOT changed to a league meeting. This is totally outside the control of the management of Workington Speedway. Cheers 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shazza13 Posted July 27, 2018 Report Share Posted July 27, 2018 Shame tomorrow couldnt be run as a double header KOC and league... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigbird Posted July 27, 2018 Report Share Posted July 27, 2018 Yeah that would have been a sensible option and hopefully killed two birds with one stone and gave us one less fixture to fit in and less to worry about. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A.N.Other Posted July 27, 2018 Author Report Share Posted July 27, 2018 I think we all have a pretty good idea as to why our league fixtures are being "held back" or delayed as much as possible by "outside sources". But I am not prepared to put that in print (!!), 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigbird Posted July 27, 2018 Report Share Posted July 27, 2018 Just hope we can get enough fixtures in to with a bit of luck achieve enough pts to make the play offs. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We shouldn't need to, nothing decided until "ALL" Championship fixtures have been completed then all this.....skullduggery will have been for nought!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How can you play for the title when serious contenders could be denied the opportunity to challenge due to missing a set date for getting fixtures in, it doesn't happen in any other play off sport so why does speedway do it?
