Workington v Edinburgh KOC 2nd leg 24/05/25 3 pm
Midget replied to topaz325's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
I will also be there today as quite simpley I don't want to loose it again. I do feel for the promotion, but having said that questions do need to be answered and I would loved to know who put the team together? Batch was never a number 1, anyone with knowledge of the sport could see that. Maybe it's down to lack of experience? Young team? Young team manager? New promotion? There's a certain Mr Stonehewer who's wife is from the area, could he be tempted to take on the team manager role? Even if it was just for Home meetings? Would certainly get the best out of riders and has all the experience and knowledge -
Workington v Redcar 10/05/25 3pm BSN series
Midget replied to topaz325's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Team changes needed, batchelors performances this weekend don't need mentioned. But he was never a number 1 before a wheel was turned, he went missing in the big heat 13s and 15 last season. Frazer bowes also needs replaced, the team is just to vulnerable to carry him at the moment. Also a mention about charles wright, disgusting move to totally wipe out vuolas out. -
And to think we could of kept craig cook who lives 10 minutes up the road..... Said it at the time an ill say it again, a massive mistake keeping batchelor
-
On ability not much between them?? There's no contest. Going into this season with troy batchelor as number 1 had disaster written all over it. Not one of the paying workington fans should have to contribute to paying his wages tomorrow. He should be sacked tonight, blatantly shutting off an uninterested, must be the worste showing from a supposed number one and captain iv ever seen.

Troy batchelor
-
Yeh suppose so..... Don't think either are premiership standard though
-
Surley craig cook would of been a far better option than kerr or sedgmen

Workington V Edinburgh 1pm Saturday 19th April
Midget replied to soupy's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
This meeting shouldnof been on. Its not rained all morning and theres a warm wind -
Pretty much common knowledge that workington owe cookie a large amount of money for a prolonged period last season. This is a forum, where people discuss topics about speedway in general and workinfton comets. Maybe you should leave it @Neila if it offends you
-
There is no doubt that cook would of been the better number 1, anyone who has any knowledge of speedway will tell you that. I think we could struggle in in heats 13 and 15 next year, especially away from home. Workington's loss is certainly berwicks gain.
-
Still would of been a lot stronger if we'd kept cookie instead of batchelor. But Not a bad start to team building, although will be some disappointed when Jye Etheridge is announced 😕
-
Let's hope not, we've been down the thomas jorgensen route before
-
Cook confirmed at berwick. still can't get my head around why we would release him an keep batchelor. Absolute ludicrous decision. If the team im hearing is correct it's got disaster written all over it for the future of workington speedway

Midget replied to emilali's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
You'd rather have thomas jorgensen than a rider who's average around berwick is 12.75? Strange one that! Workingtons loss is berwicks gain -
I still can't believe how rediculas this actually is. Letting one of the best riders in the league leave whos lives on the doorstep. The fact that a deal had been agreed verbally makes it even worse. What are the promotion thinking? Watch for crowds dropping even further next season. Got disaster written all over it.

Still a class act at this level. We will happily swap, we will keep cookie an you can go into the season with batchelor as your number 1? Thought not -
No, I don't know which heat 13s and 15s you've been watching, maybe you should check back on them? Batch definitely went missing against the big boys. I'm not saying he had a bad season, but he wasn't as good as cook. We have let one of the best riders in the league leave. Big mistake
-
Think we have made a big mistake not keeping Craig Cook. Troy starting at number 1 makes us a bit vulnerable, he didn't score well in most heat 13s and 15s last season
-
Birmingham & Redcar
-
I actually like the look of that team, but would want a stronger reserve than bailey Also everyone wanting batch back, yes he did have a decent season but he also went missing in most heat 13 & 15s when be was up against the big boys
-
Vinnie Foord - is he too dangerous?
Midget replied to BackInTheDHSS's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
100% someone will take him out, he will be riding with a marked card on his back if he carrys on like he did last night. -
Could Craig Cook be back? If some of the rumours about workington are true
