Flippin heck averages averages averages.....don't use them to decry a rider it doesn't add up.....all of us who saw Ramus perform in the latter part of Comets triumphant season had evidence aplenty of his crowd pleasing input....a joy to watch for sure...........stuff the averages.

Yep I'm sure he will be doing all he can to aid his recovery.......................roll on 2019......just sad to see the posts regarding Ramus not returning though....

Great see the Comets being given the Cumbria team of the year accolade, a real tonic for speedway in general.... .....Laura mentions it is an award for the riders efforts, quite rightly.. ...but as they are all scattered worldwide none could join the ceremony....my only thought on that comment is - was Dan Bewley not still around locally?

Eh !!!!!!

Great idea...hope it's a success......£1 extra is fine too.......................roll on April.

You've missed off the all important eh.............it's not proper west Cumbrian marra without eh is it eh Jenga.??

Yeah Stuart said so......

Ok THJ don't need to be in mortal danger just yet thanks. I guess you are back at work......gizza a job marra.............................. ..mind I should talk - my ex colleagues used to, ofen deviously, plague my thinking strategies during my years of inputting to the prog. (during work hours) of that other outfit who grace DP. Apologies Ashfield guys for usurping your thread.

Perhaps same source that enabled you to tell them of their promotion (used that word lightly) to the top flight......remember you did say that, long before it was announced.......or was it some informant from a base nearer home?

Hope you get your wish.......I quoted last sentence as for my thinking it sums up almost exactly why the majority of fans attend speedway nowadays.

Laura knows how to 'bring home the bacon' for sure.

That's short and to the point......for you that is........guess you had a day off work ??

Playing 'call our bluff'.....................????

More chance of getting Tony Hancock...........eh marra

Hope you keep good health yourself marra coz you seem to be taking the lead in keyboard sledgeing on behalf of Glasgee, and that must surely affect your blood pressure at the very least?? Anyway re Glasgow's appeal (we've all read it) for volunteers to help out in 2019. It just seems to me that the cash flow is not exactly oozing, or said appeal wouldn't have been made??? Regarding attendances at the salubrious Ashfield..... I won't be able to give concrete evidence... but, your Scottish friend(s) most certainly said at one meeting this Summer you had 350 watching...I could trawl for it but stuff that for a lark...it was a written fact on this very forum tho...so don't knock others appealing for bigger crowds marra. Regarding the salt mines....are they still running?.... Oh re the hard knock living crew, man city (yuk) whatever....are they the ones who provoked Tigers staff to enter the pub we were sat in and announce "best we move our cars off the surrounding streets into the lockable compound next to stadium"????.......roll on April 2019 'til proper action starts.

I don't really wish this to be a negative....BUT....it will be hard to follow the 'Lord Mayors show' of 2018 at Worky in 2019.....however new faces may prove to be aces.

och aye...................Steve McDonald then hen.

Well that is the worst case scenario for you I would think........must admit I was not very sure of having speedway on my doorstep in 2019.....but brill it is... I guess I'll have to keep my cool while watching the Rugby League at DP next summer too, pardon pun, - because I'll guarantee the usual wind ups will be thrown at me by the 'Town' fans, all are anti-speedway guys....sadly. I hope Lakeside/Brum/Eastbourne do join in the Championship fun tho....whenever.

But surely such problems would have been discussed, and hopefully ironed out, during the AGM - and so why was it announced two to come up??? Speedway is, as ever, a confusing sport for the fans to decipher.

You're not half as much fun to read when you are sober.

Hey asser marra...nowt up with Cumbrian eh..

Ronald Worrall................who ??

It's an eerie silence from whoever is coming up.....it would seem they are not overly keen to join the Championship...so why was it prematurely announced as part of the AGM news????

Only if I could see evidence they wouldn't go bust during my tenure.

Crowds will never return to the levels we talked of until the sport can somehow rid itself of the WWF/Circus sport reputation that none followers view it as............ .e.g. guests/doubling up/down which makes it so laughable to the non converted.
