By heat eight the aggregate lead had been wiped out and it was obvious Scunthorpe were going to get badly beaten.... Yet he graciously allowed the meeting to continue.... In fact, in the first place, he also kindly allowed the meeting to take place on an 'off night' for Worky so fair play to the bloke... Lets hope Worky winning is seen as being 'in the interests of Speedway' and the result stands... Well done Workington, I think you have a lot of neutrals on your side around the country given the way you try to go about your business and have been treated this year... Best of Luck this weekend... Grow up Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WorkyWorky 201 Posted October 26, 2018 (edited) Get innnnn! First one in the bag! What a great time to be a mighty comets fan, it seems comebacks are our forte at Derwent Park eating teams alive Commiserations to Scunthorpe, your riders did really give it a good try last night and were gracious in defeat! Best wishes to Jason Garrity who got caught in sort of a domino effect crash. I think he was the one that could’ve clinched it for you guys Onwards to Rye house, I mean Lakeside on Saturday, best pack those head torches Woohoo #backthemarras #webelieve Edited October 26, 2018 by WorkyWorky 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aces51 2,778 Posted October 26, 2018 A remarkable performance by Workington to overcome the 18 point deficit and then to go on to win on aggregate by 16. Congratulations and hopefully you will end the season with three trophies. It's good to see one of the clubs that work so hard to survive season to season enjoy some deserved success. 5 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

June 203 Posted October 26, 2018 As a huge Scorpion fan and I was present at this meeting, I have to say the Best Team Won, so Well Done Workington and good luck, I hope you go on to win the other finals. It was my first visit to your track and a good track it is! Hard luck Scorpions and it hurts to say " This was not our night " It so rightly belongs to Workington. I hope Jason is not badly injured, get well soon. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aceslider 218 Posted October 26, 2018 Well done Workington !! Great to see success for a North West team and hope this achievement is properly recognised both in the media and the area generally. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Taylorj 1,000 Posted October 26, 2018 WOW !!!! What an amazing night to be a Comets Supporter, it has to be the best night I have had in my 10years going to Speedway The lads wanted it so much and from the get go gave 110% to get us the win. The 18 points wiped out by heat 8 , I knew we had what it takes to get the win . To see Laura, Jacko and Steve's faces after heat 14 was truly amazing, finally something for them smile about after everything they have done for Workington Speedway . Commiserations to Scunthorpe your guys put up a good fight and were really gracious in defeat , we were just too strong on the night Unbelievable result !! but its time to start believing as we now enter another 2 finals , you can do this boys I know you can and we right behind you starting tomorrow with that long trip to Rye House #believe #mightycomets 4 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Carlislecomet2 304 Posted October 26, 2018 A good write up in the News and Star and I think Radio Cumbria mentioned live commentary for Lakeside, though I missed which of the 3 meetings! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Have you ever been to Derwent Park as it is a different kettle of fish to ride compared to the EWR! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He is a passionate guy & we all show our passion in one way or another. The referee did not see the cutting of the corner with 2 wheels over the white line at bend 2 in an earlier heat by one of your riders. Even the line used was evident throughout out the meeting although there was some close calls by other riders later. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We saw that too to be fair, and not from only one of the riders, the centre green becomes part of the track at times but that’s up to the referee to stop it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Was stood close to first bend....I'm waiting to see it on DVD not that it would make any difference to the score. But I think Jason was robbed of his 2+1 pts in that race. I can Imagine Jason being v ery upset about this. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
