Paulco 7,075 Posted November 1, 2018 (edited) Its a bit unfair to single out individuals when there are so many interesting and knowledgeable contributors to this section of the forum . Yes there are also a few numpties who's sole purpose is to wind folk up and also one or two of the nasty variety . But thankfully they are in the minority and the rest of us love the sport and i enjoy the quiet moments reading the various threads . I remember the days when i went to the speedway ; went home and didnt have anyone to talk to about it until the following week , so this forum has been a godsend in that respect . Long may it continue to flourish . Edited November 1, 2018 by Paulco 16 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Great stuff, well said....think my Workington bias was to the fore when I made my judgement....it's true that those who take time out to post on this forum in the main do love the sport... And it will be handy for info (including wind ups)during the long cold winter days ahead.....although ...roll on next March. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Your Workington bias is understandable , it"s not every season one feels the euphoria a treble brings . Just make it a four timer by coming to the tapes next March to defend your titles . 9 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think Comets will make 2019..........but seeing as Derwent Park is due for demolition it's maybe the finale for them? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TotallyHonestJohn 3,078 Posted November 1, 2018 DP has three years (minimum) then it is look for a new home. If the club is still running. Regards THJ 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Regards THJ Yeah 3 years minimum makes more sense.......by that I mean the 'Townies' I stand with during RL matches scarily told me that next season would be the last for Town at DP with the stadium then raised to the ground and a new stadium taking over...for the life of me I cannot see a new stadium being built that quickly....Town even way back in the 1990's had plans drawn up for a new stadium..I've seen them...glad I didn't hold my breath waiting for their inception...

No that was Bill , he doesnt go anymore as he goes to a lot of rock gigs round about Glasgow and theyre mostly on a Friday and Saturday night . Aye him and i and Alan McFarlane have had a few boozy away trips , especially to Somerset . 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
