  1. wasn't there a bit of a bad patch on that third bens at Newcastle a while back that a few fell on a bit of a hole as the saying goes
  2. Yeah surprising how some clubs get the fixtures to suit them Who works out the fixture list Oh say no more
  3. I know how much Newcastle speedway meens to you but the track is not good is it very poor shape not always prepaired bad but its certainly not always good and not the best for entertainment is a understatement
  4. 3rd bend again at Newcastle how many riders have been injured on that bend over the years
  5. yeah im sure there was a dead heat for Workington a good few years ago im sure jacko will know
  6. the thing is the fixture list was setup and agreed pre season how they can change it now it could only be a speedway thing but the biggest kick in the teeth over this is we were told to keep a eye on social media as fixtures could change at short notice theres more than me that refuse to go down the facebook route so we rely on third hand info its pretty obvious the people making the rules in this country should have nothing to do with it as they are too biased and change the goal posts all the time somethings not going there way
  7. so apparently the bspa are not happy that our season has been poor so far due to the fixture list we were told last night Workington and other clubs have been asked or told to try and rearrange some fixtures dispite 1 or 2 clubs been already offered dates to reschedule which they have turned down looks like Workington gonna struggle again to fit in fixtures I wonder if some of the fixtures the bspa want rearranged don't suit certain teams and they want a date that does suit them when Workington have riders missing now come on bspa and all other teams start to play fair whats wrong are you now scared Workington are a force to be reconed with as apposed to the team that most wrote off and slagged off as no hopers pre season
  8. when we got wrote off pre season I said if the team clicked and they all rode to there ability we would upset a few
  9. maybe the dust blocked our view but there was a few around us all thought it was ritchie
  10. think its fairly accurate there was hard moves from bot teams also id say Glasgow rode better later on when the score started pulling away better racing but than the heat results sugested
  11. only thing id change to that was we actually though ty got wrong rider we thought it was worrel that almost fenced ty and which way Ritchie went up and pulled vising away suggests he might have known that also Ritchie was limping after ht 15 maybe they got closer than we thought
  12. think riders from both teams worked hard tonight all riders looked like they wanted to race and win even making the track as dusty as Glasgow has been reported to be recently couldn't help them win all joking aside some proper racing tonight few riders getting upset with others after hard moves which most were hard but fair looking at some of the Glasgow riders reactions after races id say there under a bit of pressure from promotion to start performing
  13. thanks for that screm riders like dan need support not like on the Workington thread when some are using his success in this event to have a pop at the current mess british speedway is in
  14. as I said don't try to use success against the club who are struggling to survive use the negatives by all means they only have them selves to blame for the mistakes they have and are making but the good things use to try get more interested and hopefully move on
  15. dan is making a name for himself in the sport don't use that as a negative and a reason to knock Workington comets have a go at the situation for genuine reasons by all means but don't turn success against the sport it is hard that we don't get meetings for weeks on end and then when we do we have riders in overseas meetings but be pleased we have a cumbrian prospect riding at the higher levels a good promotion could use that as publicity
  16. and beet danny king and the in form rory schlin aswell
  17. id forgot there was a meeting this week almost made other plans but im sure ill be at Derwent park as usual on race night
  18. anyone got any info on ty is it looking like hes in or out this weekend
  19. are you willing to pay for the 2nd ambulance there not cheap you know
  20. and that's my point so many are calling for thease riders to fill the reserve berths when there not ready I thought and still do think young kyle has a future in the sport hes not too far off the pace and if he was getting regular meetings and the right help and advice he should start scoring he looks different on the bike than he was last year maybe his confidence has took a knock and he isn't as comfortable as he was but somethings different
  21. personaly I think its more down to attitude towards the clubs they ride for rather than the equipment they are using for that club maybe down to the deal there on set fee rather than outright points money we here storys about garunteed basic fee if they don't score more than a set amount of points
  22. good example to this is kyle bickley very good national league rider but look how hard hes finding it in the middle tier im sure most expected it to take time for kyle to start scoring but combination of things has made it hard for kyle 1 day he will click and start scoring and then in turn start improving just because theres plenty of riders in the lower league it dosnt mean they can fill a reserve berth in the league above successfully
  23. well that's not narrowed it down much has it lol
  24. top 3 qualify I think so not much difference really podium is great for him
