  1. Where did you see this? They did the same to the IOW when they switched to NORA racing
  2. Is that how it works then? I thought there was a cut off date rather than percentage of fixtures ridden? Only that Berwick and Sheffield just made changes stating “before the deadline” ?
  3. When is the transfer deadline for this season? I see that Starke’s average goes to 4.00 on 1st August. Surely that presents a great opportunity to replace him with a new foreign rider to strengthen up before the play offs?
  4. Could it be that someone else is coming in to run/promote Workington and the delay is transferring all of the assets, contracts and visas over to the new company?
  5. You don’t dissolve companies just to “change it’s name”
  6. Cooper isn’t old enough to race in the championship this season.
  7. Cooper was the reason I went along to watch and I wasn’t disappointed, looks very classy on the bike, good style and fast for his age. Also conducts himself well with the fans in the pits and on the microphone etc, this kid is going to go far.
  8. Anyone know if Will is fit enough to ride in this after his fall for Belle Vue? My main reason for attending will be to watch him and Cooper ride
  9. Anyone know how long Ben Barker might be out for?
  10. He’s way off the pace sadly. Surely Nathan Ablitt could come in and do a better job whilst the averages allow
  11. Thanks for running this again, here’s my team; Jody Scott - 8.10 (Oxford) Mickie Simpson - 4.49 (Scun/Sheff) Vinnie Foord - 6.29 (Kent) Sam McGurk - 5.56 (Edinburgh) Freddy Hodder - 7.11 (Belle Vue Senna Summers - 3.44 (Oxford) Cooper Rushen - 3.00 (Leicester) Total 🟰 37.99
  12. This is a discussion forum is it not?
  13. If Steve Ribbons was doing this as a personal venture then yes whatever his previous experience/ventures were would be irrelevant as everyone would just be hoping he succeeds in reopening. The reason it is relevant, just in my opinion, is because you are asking us to put our money in to fund it. I think it’s valid to know who’s going to be using the money and whether it’s going to be used correctly rather than just chucking money over the fence to a stranger. I was initially interested in making a pledge but to be honest the track issues have made me nervous, now you are raising money just to pay the league bond but then having to get a loan to pay for the air fence, does that make all pledgers liable for the loan if they are shareholders, and surely it’s a lost cause for entering any national league competitions this season as it was reported that the deadline to have everything signed off to enter the national trophy was 15th March, however it’s stated that the foam fence would take 2 months to deliver once ordered ….. and they don’t yet have the funds to order it. I’m not trying to be negative and I think it’s really important that we try to get as many tracks running as possible and wish nothing but best wishes and support to this project, but I think it’s only fair that people have valid questions and concerns given the fact this is going to be a fan funded project.
