Enough to make comets fans cry

To quote meatloaf " 2 out of 3 aint bad".

Who ever was the ref that night can only hope he was watching with his head in his hands, not one decision right

was once at exeter must have been when the comets were their after a crash on the first bend a bike still running stood up and was going straight for some people sat in wheelchairs under the rugby posts,their helpers just ran thankfully the bike missed everyone, good to have a laugh about it now but a bit of a scare at the time .

The sounds on mute the whole prog lol

ivan allways said like the fans who were watching him he was allowed a day off which he chose to be a sunday, what he did on his day off was up to him so he went to germany tp ride for mega bucks or marks as they were then ,simple .

Looking forward to watching this but could do without those 2( insert own phrase here) at the start and through the broadcast

Years later i still think bobby laid the bike down.

Very brief crowd shot at the end spot the comets fan its me

Read once he used to drill holes in the carb jet which would then break .

1975

Sad news again havnt seen anything in the local rag about george, he was my dads apprentice at the old lecky board then went on to have his own company, he and ian opened newcastle but had a fall out over mitch graham who was going to guest for swindon in the 75 inter league cup. George was a regular on speedway nights at workington thoughts go to his family .

That was me

Scroll down headline says " heartfelt tributes to michael "

Is it far from workington?

No fish and chips this last 5 weeks and the thought of no speedway star every week omg stop the world i want to get off

No their is a nice piece about him on the local paper website with pics, he was part of a group who put money on a race in memory of a friend who died young ..

comets fans off the first turn will be sad to learn that long time fan MICHAEL TURNER was buried this week ,mike was their everyweek come rain or shine and allways had time for a crac or if u were lucky u might have got a sweet .thoughts to his family at this sad time .

His will dry easy plenty hot air near him

Thanks can see him now, wonder if he still has the hat

cant work out who is in the grey hat ??

Hopefully now can RIP

Is he " british" ? Or just when it suits?

Something for us older comets fans " bob valentine " was 80 yrs old yesterday now that makes me feel old!

i watched it and dont remember seeing kennet !
