SteelShoe Posted 15 hours ago Report Share Posted 15 hours ago (edited) 2 hours ago, Woke23 said: There could be a lot of reasons on why the promotion chose Troy over Cookie. I wouldn't be surprised if it was down to wages though. Workington are running on a limited budget and Mr.Bains has been very vocal about backing the team and bringing the numbers in. I really hope speedway at Workington is here to stay for the foreseeable but it doesn't seem promising after only two seasons. Would imagine all clubs are running on a limited budget just some more limited than others. One thing I would say that doesn't apply to Andrew is that he is very vocal. A generally unassuming guy who loves Speedway and achieved something worthy of praise. He has done this through sheer hard work and a shrewd business eye which has enabled him to acquire services and materials at a cost that has made the project achievable. He is probably not in a position where he can afford to suffer sizeable financial losses every season. He wants Championship level speedway to be sustainable while supplying the fans with top entertaining racing in the process. The least we can do is support the club.I believe it is a 10 year project so don't understand why you feel it doesn't seem promising after only 2 seasons. At the very worst the future holds NDL racing. Edited 15 hours ago by SteelShoe 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have speedway for another year get behind the team, if you can put your hand in your pocket and do some sponsorship to help the promotion out UTC Imagine calling it bitching when I'm having a discussion on a public forum. A forum is there to engage discussion. Clown. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My first comment was regarding cookie and batch. Both have their flaws and I was trying to spark a discussion in this thread due to it being quiet for a while. My second was regarding the financial situation and I clearly stated I hope the comets are here for the foreseeable. If you can't have a wide range of different topics going on in a forum then what's the point of a forum? This spots got a few wet wipes and snowflakes. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty much common knowledge that workington owe cookie a large amount of money for a prolonged period last season. This is a forum, where people discuss topics about speedway in general and workinfton comets. Maybe you should leave it @Neila if it offends you 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
