Panic buttons being pressed after ONE home defeat!"FFS. Crowds holding up well because they are generally being entertained and winning all but two home meetings this season. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you paid your money and supported the team instead of trolling on here when ever they get beat you'd know the crowds are holding up just fine... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ruffdiamond 6,115 Posted July 9, 2018 (edited) With it looking possible that Newcastle won't have a home or away fixture for nearly 4 weeks, will fans forget about speedway, or forget about last nights result ? Edited July 9, 2018 by ruffdiamond Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nobody on here trolling mate just asking a simple question and making a simple statement which if I remember right we live in a free state so we’re allowed to do so, I’ve paid my money to watch for over 25 years but due to family reasons I haven’t been this season but what that has to do with you I dont know Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Got to feel for the promotion how are they supposed to build momentum and get it advertised especially with the kids holidays starting soon, speedway as a whole is not doing itself any favours 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SteelShoe 500 Posted July 9, 2018 (edited) Well the victory capped a fabulous weekend of results for the Comets . Regardless of how the Diamonds riders performed they were only as good as they were allowed too on the night . When i got into the stadium and heard that once again we had been unable to secure a guest and young Josh Embleton had agreed to step in i admit to being downbeat with all negative stuff that is going on in speedway right now. This didn't last long though because even with young Kyle who is finding life difficult in a tough league being unable to score the other four lads were just immense. I can't ever remember witnessing 4 Worky riders achieve 11 race wins in such circumstances on a track with such a big home advantage. The lads deserve huge plaudits for the way they attacked the track and once again young Cumbrian prodigy Dan Bewley demonstrated his talent and great racing acumen that deny his years and experience within speedway. I'm just so proud that he his riding for his local team this season, he is worth the admission on his own. I'm just so pleased for Laura the way things are going at the moment because if anyone deserves to be dealt a better hand than she has been dealt especially this season it is surely Laura. Thanks Laura for keeping things together when someone of lesser character may well have just given up . Your right up there in my book !

mauger65 202 Posted July 9, 2018 (edited) luckily missed last nights horror show..... but we have been dodging bullets at home all season I like ranting roy…. but his digs at us keyboard warriors a few weeks ago seem somewhat misjudged …… all we ever pointed out is the team is weak … the averages don't lie with lakeside, peterboro, Glasgow and Workington still to visit us in the league it could be a somewhat of a depressing 2nd half of the season this team is going places …….. it certainly is Roy …. from 5th to 10th still sticking with my original bottom 3 of redcar, Berwick and Newcastle Edited July 9, 2018 by mauger65 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
