workyboy 96 Posted October 12, 2014 Depends on which riders turn up, the disinterested ones, or, the we'll give it a go bunch! To be honest don't know whether I Can be arsed to move from in front of Tele. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jenga 2,998 Posted October 12, 2014 (edited) its a good chance to see a new worky rider for 2015 in action,, Edited October 12, 2014 by jenga 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lord Lucan 375 Posted October 12, 2014 Berwick only have seven points to play with so should be pretty determined, I'm hopeful tho that the Comets will have enough to squeeze through by around 50-40!! Cant be there tonight because of work so will keep an eye out for the result? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Blue Groove 26 Posted October 12, 2014 Yet another shambles. If the track was unfit then why was this not decided before the meeting started? Surely the riders must have inspected the track pre-meeting and thought "hmm, this looks a bit dodgy", would it not then have been sensible for one of the senior riders to have given the track a try out? By the way, where do I collect my refund? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cityrebel 2,960 Posted October 12, 2014 I really do fear for worky's future. This season has been one disaster after another. Derwent park must be cursed! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
topsoil 2,498 Posted October 12, 2014 Wasn't there tonight so I will admit I have no idea of track conditions, Only going on what I have read from various riders' twitter feeds. Sometimes you are in a no-win situation. If the meeting had been abandoned before the start, people would have moaned about riders not giving it a go. They try a couple of heats and people moan about why they didn't call it off before the meeting started. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They try a couple of heats and people moan about why they didn't call it off before the meeting started. As I've suggested, with track conditions looking poor why not try a couple of heats before the meeting starts and before people have turned up and paid money to get in?

Blue Groove 26 Posted October 12, 2014 Fair play to those Workington riders that did give it a go, it was obvious from the off that the Berwick side had no intention whatsoever of doing likewise. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
magnus 80 Posted October 12, 2014 Unfortunately your damned if you do and your damned if you don't. This season if Workington didn't have any bad luck, then they wouldn't have had any luck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
