although im gutted , hook would of been in main body on his avrg . thats a big risk for me i wouldnt take and unfortunately its just speedway and something we  see every year . will of been a hard decission  to make no doubt  , will see what comes of it 

hasnt yet anyways imagine every week, its a crap track

Yes, that’s unfortunately the way speedway works sometimes. Hooky was excellent last year but when you do well in the sport, occasionally it can go against you. The promotion obviously believe there’s more room for improvement with the riders they’ve brought back than there is in Jacob (not entirely sure about that) Tate should definitely improve back to 2024 levels and hopefully last year was a learning curve for Vinnie and he can kick on, he’s never short on effort. Certainly makes things interesting for Workington, should see some new faces. Have to feel big time for Jacob, hopefully he gets a place next year.    

So, as things stand, the two 2025 comets that have been signed for 2026 are the ones whose averages reduced throughout the season? Presume this is the management hoping that 2026 will be the year they push on from whatever challenges/issues/injuries they had last year...

They can ask but, I think they would be told to get lost. (Or words that mean the same)😁

I’d like him at Berwick, but I’ll believe it when I see it
