  1. its the system we use and we dont have any other so just get on with it just like us doing overtime at work a shortage of riders up to standard and eligable to race if you want to try and say theres plenty of poor riders willing to take prem league places and devalue the sport even more
  2. if all you worry about is the win your not a fan off speedway id be happy watching my side get beat if it was a good entertaining meeting i always want my side to win but i go to be entertained
  3. yes thinking last night berwick came to mind
  4. pitty they wernt as keen along with a few other clubs a few years back when this was tested im sure 3 clubs got involved pritty sure workington and maybe the other 2 were somerset and newcastle but cant remember to make season tickets worth buying maybe all clubs should allow away fans a discount if there team is in town and they produce there season ticket
  5. i can remember when going to redcar was something to look forward to been to some good entertaining meetings at redcar in the past
  6. with so many riders on the injured list r/r might be best option also promotion may be looking longer term and looking for 2 riders and redeclare the team in the future which ever route they go down its best to considor options and not rush in to making a panic buy change
  7. workington fans were happy with result tonight we know we have weakness in our team the edinbrugh promotion are over hyping there team and that could be bad as they will take defeat bad justin sedgeman should have been in heat 15 last night in place of cookie who would have finished last if kyle howarth hadnt tried ridding every line but the right 1 for last 2 laps confirmed collapsed lung futher update later today
  8. also the risk of not getting paid while riding abroad think it was simon stead who lost money as he never got paid some years ago yes they pay good points money in some foriegn leagues but its no good if they dont actually pay whats is owed to riders
  9. i can remeber the opposite at workington a good few years back when alan mogridge had a few words with kenny feeron the old start marshall on his next vist he brought kenny a dummy much to the crowds entertainment just be carefull cookie dosnt return in force im led to believe he changed his setup saturday and scored a max at berwick
  10. i wasnt there and ill hold my hands up and say ive never been to glasgow but its a pitty more dont look at the actual meetings instead of the final scores riders should be judged on there on track efforts not what they score in the meeting
  11. yeah that was in the edinbrugh press release i believe just bumping up the"(beaten before thye turn up) comets so the not as good as they think monarchs look better on the night no one at workington believes we have 5 heat leaders most people from around actualy say workington are a weak team so why does the team that thinks there the greatest have to over hype the visiting team
  12. final score 56 -37 thats pritty good score for workington in recent years
  13. and workington have put theres up to £15 still dosnt mean that £15 is the right price as allready said personaly and i know im not alone if pl speedway was £10 im sure they would get lot more in at most tracks i know my son would go most weeks at £10 as it is he cant afford to go every week or even every other week so dosnt go at all anymore something we talk about a lot and disagree with the people i go speedway with to be competative you need to speend big gone are the days when riders fetle there own bikes
  14. i agree you get a few gp riders but as a package the elite is poor product when you look at the sweedish league for example that was aired on eurosport last year
  15. too early to say but id put money on that the prem will be more entertaining than the elite over the season
  16. obviously you were fast asleep this morning when the rain was torential read offical statement even jim mcgregor had inspected track this morning and said it wasnt raceable
  17. wish i could have made it down the video posted at the start of thread is a bit upsetting but seeing rickys face light up when they talk about the football on the xbox gives hope that he may improve a bit more as he obviously is aware of whats going on
  18. yeah when the team managers whos are on the bspa comitee or have conections want to change the rules mid season to suit there own teams
  19. they will have known this 1 when they signed him last year with lawson it was a bit diferent
  20. 1 thing that has been puzling me its been put on the speddway promotors that they have not been sticking to the rules which we have all or most of us accepted but who was it that granted the likes of mason campton taylour poole and all others there visas ???? suerly there visa aplication should have been regected on the grounds they didnt qualify rather than pass the blame on the promotors
  21. only because they never had 1 acording to the rumours all british speedway teams had there certificates revoked and had to reapply for them
  22. and a rule that was in force at the time as the bspa accepted it
  23. thats the thing some are good enough just havnt dotted the i's and crossed the t's while others who may dot the i's and cross the t's are not good enough to hold down there team place at the levcel required
