Neila Posted June 26, 2022 Report Share Posted June 26, 2022 3 hours ago, tyretrax said: The poo incident had nothing to do with the Glasgow/Workington closure. The poo incident when they watered the track with a tanker full of slurry (liquidfied cow manure) was the final straw of several incidents like temporary flood light failure ones used on roadworks in the late 80's not being up to standard, poor maintained track, Glasgow track staff turned up late afternoon on a Friday for the evening meeting, also key track staff often turning up hard on meeting time, after being at work in Glasgow during the day. The bspa and Glasgow promotion pulled the plug with a few matches left to run, also was not supported well by local comets fans, despite name change to Workington tigers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ruffdiamond Posted June 26, 2022 Report Share Posted June 26, 2022 A wonder if the home straight fence is for sale too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbieblackadder fan club Posted June 26, 2022 Report Share Posted June 26, 2022 What I can’t understand is why pay all that money to put a new track in to then close 2 meetings later,why didn’t he just shut up shop there and then hes starting to show his true colours now a total and utter charlatan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oxford would have been his 8th match, but it was abandoned and so doesn't count. Not that it really matters, but I think he's done 9 . Championship:- Leicester (A); Glasgow (A); Oxford (H); Berwick (A); Berwick (H); Missed Glasgow (H); Poole (A); Redcar (H). = 7. However he also did Edinburgh in the KOC home and away. Whilst these do not count towards riders greensheet averages, they are official BSPL fixtures. So I believe he's done 9.

But I'm a bit sceptical now, after having put so much into Rob's reign and got nothing but woeful teams, boring meetings and many times short changed... I am not very rich as it is, so I am very personally annoyed the way Rob has ran the club the last 2 or 3 years... It's pathetic how he thinks he can just nick off with all this money from the supporters... How can he sell the air fence if the supporters trust purchased it??? It should be property of the supporter's club, sold by the supporter's club (or kept if the chances of us returning are there) and divided up equally between them... But no, Rob's just gonna take the money and run and everyone is gonna let him get away with it... I'm already banned from the Newcastle Diamonds Facebook page now for voicing my opinions there, so I guess we're not allowed opinions, the fans who have been going most our lives... What a joke F you Rob Grant You might not be banned now from Facebook page. I have been unblocked by looks of it it (for now!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regards THJ I just couldn’t believe what I was reading, all positive “you did your best” and all this garbage. I know some of negative ones got took away but over 200 positive comments about a bloke who has took our club away! Some people scared to say what they really think and some just clueless 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
