And back to reality …..let’s hope the meeting is on and we see some good racing.

Checked Apple weather and BBC and I think we will be fine. Regarding the meeting it’s going to be a close one Scunthorpe have a decent team with some out and out racers in there. I’m looking forward to our guys getting another meeting to get used to our track and set ups etc hopefully the positives from last weeks meeting continue and we can pull off a win!

I only care when he wears blue and white and so far for me not done that and has had a positive start.

After seeing Troy ride for us in the openings 2 meetings I can only judge him from what I’ve seen while in the Comets colours and in my opinion he’s not given up he’s given it a go and so far I’m happy with him. 8+2 away 7 at home I’ve seen a lot of worse scores so far from a lot “better” riders ….. so keep an eye on them in fact get them sacked!!! Keep it up Troy and welcome to Workington!

Brilliant! looking forward to seeing our old rivals!

Waking up in sunny Scunthorpe ready for our trip to Berwick! Hoping our guys get some track time today and it’s a good nights racings!

Agree this isn’t to damn our sport but it’s pointing out the obvious which need addressing, how can a club that has a promoter in such a position operate that way! ? No miles or loss of money will ever stop me attending speedway and I’m fully aware this isn’t the norm! Let’s get things run like a professional sport and do better then this !

I’m more annoyed what it does to the “general “ speedway fans it looks horrendous and like I said although it’s disappointing surely communication with the fans will help a bad situation. He’s my gun shot my foot !

Right here we go here are the unfortunate facts Yes I’m a travelling Workington fan but don’t let this distract you from the fact that this was a horrendous advert for speedway! We need people to want to come back and although I appreciate we have no control over the weather but we do have control over announcements and keeping the fans updated … nobody had a clue what was going on unless the speaker system was gone people on the first bend had no idea what was happening. All appeared very unprofessional and especially as the promoter is part of the bspa we need to do better someone come on the centre and announce what’s going on! On a side note respect to the track staff for the work draining the standing water they did do a good job, my only issue is newbies won’t want to return and you can’t survive on idiots like me. Onto the next one! Up the Comets!!

Weather forecast looks ok so far, ready for tapes up excited for it now!

Get yourselves stood by the supporters club banner and make some noise!

The Border Trophy battle returns, should be a good atmosphere over both legs for this one! Come on the Comets!

BSN Series 17:30 start Here we go we’re back! Myself and probably most other Comets fans will be more excited than most now we’re back in the Championship. Should be plenty of Blue and White down to make some noise, a new team full of experience, youth and untested riders. After a successful weekend of practice our guys are looking ready. I can’t wait for this! SCORPIONS Kyle Howarth Simon Lambert Michael Palm Toft Connor Mountain Jake Allen Nathan Ablitt Luke Harrison COMETS Craig Cook Claus Vissing Tate ZISCHKE Antti Voulas Troy Batchelor Celina LIEBMANN Sam Mcgurk Give us a C !!!!!!!

I hope not …. We probably shouldn’t of gone up this year imo but here we are and we’ve done an amazing job in such a short time

A few have already mentioned on here about Tate and Celina being down the track a lot since their arrival but also nice to see them chipping in and helping out on jobs around the place, great for them to build a relationship too. I’ve met both of them and although we’ve yet to see them on track I can say they will be great with the supporters. Anyway today is the day down to the serious stuff, hope to see at few at the Waverley for a pint too !

Encouraging from Celina great experience being on track and in the pits with some of the worlds best. countdown is on now can’t wait for our first meeting away at Scunny!

Welcome to Workington Troy! Good for the team to have some experience in there and Troy has plenty of it as with Cookie. So we now have 2 former GP riders. In response to the negative stuff about batch that’s in the past he’s a Comet now and I’m sure he will get the backing of the fans. Only one more rider to go I can’t wait to see the new team on track! Scunny away is our first trip let’s get behind the team!

First women in championship speedway! She looked quick on her last visit to NS. Team coming on great, some new faces to watch too!

I’d be happy with Adam Roynon in the team, plenty of experience and will get us a few points. Yes I’m aware he’s not the rider he used to be but he’s still worthy of a team place especially on his average.

With Tate and Antti Vuolas signed it’s a great move 2 young exciting riders who will hopefully stay with the club and progress. Looking forward to watching to them at NS

Signing number 4, tonight at 5 !

3 brilliant signings so far and the best race track for them, we’re going to see some superb racing in 2024!

Welcome to Workington Tate!

Signing number 3 tonight at 5pm!!

Maybe I am ….I think the guy it a credit to the sport and still worth a team place imo
