So if anyone is offering to buy it off them, they'd be foolish not to accept. i am sure the shale has already moved onto a new home .

Ovalman Posted June 27, 2019 Report Share Posted June 27, 2019 Pity Worky closed after that magnificent treble. Used to love the speedway, especially the Fours, when I lived up there 2004/5, Stoney, Steady, Wrighty, etc., Mystic Mel, Gromet the Comet, some real characters at DP. But with hundreds losing interest since then couldn't afford to keep running. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At last common sense prevails Shaz , not going to help us Workington Comets fans though . Why couldn't they have just revamped Borough Park and Derwent Park for all 3 sports . I know affordability is the main factor for losing the Comets , but ripping up the track gave no chance of a possible return .I'm really pleased with the result its been rejected as will a lot of others I know Edited June 28, 2019 by Taylorj 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully the air fence fits it's new home, as you don't want too many, or not enough pieces Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
