Had a walk down a few weeks ago,as part of my lockdown walks, yes lots of work ongoing, but think the people who run it should be left to make an announcement when they are ready !!

Pictures taken very recently. There’s no pits or other buildings because they are not there!

Track has been made a lot bigger (when it’s completed ) lots of ongoing work.

Genuine question(s) and not wishing to stir just know. Did the Comets go into administration or just opt out of running due to finances and stadium issues? The reason i ask is that its not always a straight forward to bring teams back that have folded otherwise half of the promotions would be trying the same trick and starting up under another name. I guess there is absolutely no reason why the Northside Comets couldn't operate out of a new venue.

I don't see why Workington Comets couldn't operate out of a new venue.  It's the ownership name that wouldn't (possibly) be allowed to operate.  The team name has nothing to do with ownership.

Seems from what I am reading that the chances of Workington coming back are quite bright, so as someone who knows what it is like to lose their club, I wish them and their supporters every possible success.
