Yay good one THJ........Bernard Manning lives on eh.. lol.................Hey there 'Derwent'.........think I've sussed you ID...not 'banking' on you 'telling' me tho..... ha, ha. -
That's not good for tracks without local supplies....awful delivery price.

Yes someone said they had followed a wagon-load to Northside..a journey of less than 1 mile....but not sure if it would ever get used there..probably just a convenient 'drop off' point.

Plenty shale being removed from Derwent Park...not sure if can be re-used but someone could ask ?? (long journey though)

Ha ha..Sellafield is the place for grafters for sure..............I somehow managed 30 years of it. Miss my speedway fix big style....but too old to travel far nowadays....TV the only way for me I'm afraid. -

Ok sorry marra........I didn't take the photo...it was on facebook.....as I said to show DP developments.....Can't see speedway getting back on there ever. -

Walshy did sterling work on behalf of Comets before he was lost to them...he did however do a live commentary last season, for Radio Cumbria, on a Friday night meeting v Peterborough. He is still flying his pigeons....and luvs those big spending 'Sky Blues' of Manchester...sadly. -

Hiya THJ...the 'Kiwis' twined about most of Derwent Park.....their main one being about the smallness of the changing rooms...mind they were mainly very big guys. -

The guy at the front of pic is a good bloke...it was the view of the arena that was the purpose of adding it, just to show the work done so far...sad to see. -

A shame indeed.....his input at Comets certainly helped the euphoric atmosphere in those treble winning performances........and was always a top announcer!!!!! -

Just used the quote to attract your attention ha....but I was just wondering THJ if you know what such as Tony Jackson, and Dave Hoggart, are doing re speedway now following the demise of Comets? Presumably the latter announces at other tracks? -

Is speedway the only sport that leaves so many fans feeling frustrated, even hurt, by the loss of their club... most sports battle through bad times I think. -

It most certainly was tops, and a fair track for all......memories are all we are left with....very sad and surely painful for all speedway fans who saw the place in full flight. -

This so sad business is gonna run and run...but given that the speedway will cost a lot for anyone to bring it back to life, and I have been given some incredible figures on that, it seems impossible for us to see the Comets rise again, sadly. -

That's me, and the Comets scenario, done then.... -

Without sounding too pedantic..I hope.....it's loam with grass seed added that is quick growing (3 wks).... .....still think that yes a new stadium for RL and Soccer...then have speedway at DP again when moves to new place sorted..don't knock DP down in other words??? -

For F.A. regs...to allow 'Reds' on DP..the pitch needs both widened and lengthened..so it seems not much track will be left untouched. -

I was informed, while at yesterday's Town RL match, that work on removing the speedway track from Derwent Park is scheduled to commence today, Monday 20th May. -

Just a thought.....and it's regarding club assets....where has that most expensive item..the airfence....gone from the track?....was it owned, or rented, by the promotion??? -

Think most of us knew the 'licence on ice' situation was only to calm the much troubled waters, and Comets were in reality no more. Re the' press release' - perhaps it does need doing to, as it were, nail the lid down. Think Laura needs to make the effort. As THJ says it's "a whole new chapter"........and honestly when I do win the lottery I'll revive Workington Speedway....... .........incidentally anyone know where you buy a ticket?
