Jonimac Posted October 14, 2018 Report Share Posted October 14, 2018 (edited) Doesn’t matter what Harris does if one reserve is scoring ONE THIRD of a team’s points total over two legs. Edited October 14, 2018 by Jonimac Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ironically his last bend EF earlier today that turned an easy 3-3 into a 1-5 appears to have cost us. We have a lot of lessons to learn on team selection from this season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Racin Jason 72 Posted October 14, 2018 Report Share Posted October 14, 2018 Well done the comets. Hope you got a massive crowd tonight and another one in the final so you can come to the tapes again next season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does matter, if he'd scored literally one more point you'd have won. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could also look at the points Workington threw away at the start of the meeting and Proctor coming off whilst second. These evened themselves out, what i do agree with is Harris has been one major letdown. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harris now leaves us on 7.71, the best part of a point lower than when he started with us. Signing riders on the way down rarely works out.

But i would rather give credit to Workington what a season they are having and is long overdue for them and there fans. Our problems are of our own making will lessons be learned. 2 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WorkyWorky Posted October 14, 2018 Report Share Posted October 14, 2018 (edited) Come onnnnnnnnnnnn! Ohhhhhh worky worky!!! Trying not to be smug... Cannot contain my excitement, comets you f**king beauties! Losing my voice as the weeks go by, shouting our hearts out for the lads....feeling emotional! Can’t be the only comets fan getting butterflies?! A night filled with misfortune again for both teams! Harris not up to his best tonight, but comets riders also giving up points when in scoring positions. Really good to see a lot of travelling fans in tonight, much appreciated extra numbers on the gate! Unfortunate to lose out by one point, but never doubt the mighty comets!!! Sarjeant through the tapes Such a surreal feeling for comets fans, should we... maybe....just maybe start believing something special is about to happen?! Blue and white tears will be shed! Mason Campton take a bow! THREE FINALS #backthemarras #webelieve Edited October 14, 2018 by WorkyWorky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weeyin Posted October 14, 2018 Report Share Posted October 14, 2018 Well done Comets , Mason Campton is your ace in the pack at reserve and you have strength in depth, you should go on and win all 3 trophies as I cant see you losing over 2 legs, frustratingly close for the Tiggers, well done to our guests Ricky Wells and Jordan Stewart. Hope the comets wont be lost to speedway next season. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially after all the crap aimed at him the last couple of years,could easily said sod it and walked away,but he stuck it out and believed he was good enough, and much credit to him for it,now he must feel it was all worth it 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dontforgetthefueltapsbruv Posted October 14, 2018 Report Share Posted October 14, 2018 Congratulations to the Comets - Im really chuffed for all you up there Looked like it was all going pear shaped towards the end but dug in to hold on Tigers fans must wonder who this Chris Harris is that can produce a super human pursuit of the world champion in the PL but trail round tamely behind CL reserves I labelled him Mr Play Off after that - seems that requires slight amendment to Mr PL Play Off.... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topaz325 Posted October 14, 2018 Author Report Share Posted October 14, 2018 First of all, hope Rasmus is ok. Commiserations to the many travelling Glasgow fans, some of the best fans in Speedway, safe journey home. Wow another nail biter of a meeting, well done to all the lads rode their socks off, man of the match Mason Campton, take a bow. Still in a daze!! Three finals to get through but limited days in October left.. Once again well done the Comets. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should have introduced yourself, I really hope you guys win them all, I get really annoyed with all the money bags and flash the cash comments from some fans , hence my rant a few weeks back, we have been rock bottom many a time , wondering if we would run the next year and you are unfortunately in that position now. I hope something can be done to save your team, enjoy your three finals 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
