Bomber75 11 Posted January 17 I personally think we need a steadying influence in the team who is a solid scorer. I was a long time Barrow supporter and know only too well that speedway fans are fickle and wont support a losing team particularly at home, hence the reason I have a 90 mile round trip to see my adopted team Workington. I really hope it all works out. Workington - Barrow derby's happy days. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Trouble could be it looks a fantastic track with not a lot of home track advantage,should be some cracking racing at Championship Level. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bomber75 11 Posted January 17 It is a fantastic track, and I agree there will be very little home track advantage, any rider worth there salt will be at home there right away. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
