Neila Posted December 25, 2023 Report Share Posted December 25, 2023 (edited) Apparently on a 4 point assessed average and imo a good prospect looked very assured earlier on at northside on borrowed machinery, a better signing than that Duffer Poole have signed, and will be an asset after 6 home 6 away meetings Edited December 25, 2023 by Neila Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She is yeah, just assumed before that article was posted she would be 5 with riding in U24 Ekstraliga. Leaves 13.48 for last 2 riders. The bonus with signing assessed riders is that they can’t dip below that figure. So you won’t get a situation we were in last year with Harry McGurk and Crang where they can’t be replaced. Not that I think any of the 3 assessed riders will fail Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TTT Posted December 25, 2023 Report Share Posted December 25, 2023 Really exciting side being put together, If Cookie gets his mojo back and the final two signings are good then the Comets will be the dark horses in 2024. All three assessed riders should improve GSA's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul84 Posted December 25, 2023 Report Share Posted December 25, 2023 First women in championship speedway! She looked quick on her last visit to NS. Team coming on great, some new faces to watch too! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stemoc Posted December 25, 2023 Report Share Posted December 25, 2023 Another great signing, a big Comets welcome to Celina, the team is really taking shape nicely with 13.48 to go for the remaining 2 riders I think this team will look very solid with every rider capable of increasing their average. Exciting season ahead for the Comets 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exciting season ahead for the Comets so far i agree regarding increasing averages think sam will take time to settle at this level but think he will improve over season and also looking like celina will be at reserve unless we go for higher end ht leader and a lower average reserve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JanAndersen Posted December 25, 2023 Report Share Posted December 25, 2023 Brilliant move by Workington - I’ll definitely be making an effort to get my little girl along to see her ride. Excellent stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HGould Posted December 25, 2023 Report Share Posted December 25, 2023 Hats off and respect to Workington. Building a cosmopolitan and entertaining team. Celina could gain massive Main Stream Media interest. 100% clear though she is worth a place on merit. To be fair she is half a lap better than any current British girl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This gives the female riders in this country something to aspire to as gaining a team place in the championship is now on the cards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikebv Posted December 25, 2023 Report Share Posted December 25, 2023 Great call... A "decent rider" from what I have read of her scores and performances, but, far more importantly, what a story to tell... Plenty of column inches locally I would suggest in the local media and maybe even local TV interest.... Outstanding work from the Comets leadership team... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yearbyred Posted December 25, 2023 Report Share Posted December 25, 2023 Well done to the Comets, putting a very interesting team together and the introduction of a female rider into the league will give the team (and the sport in general) a publicity boost.
