  9. Very much enjoyed the prog tonight , good to see both sldes of the eastbourne night, still cant workout how craig got off lightly, interesting to hear the phone is red hot with riders wanting to go their cant think why lol. Reading this weeks "ss" len silver says he doesnt build a team to win medals but to make money glasgow come across on the other side of the fence kent makes a profit each year where as others dont!.all in all a great advert for speedway but more important glasgow speedway long may it go on.

  21. 50 yrs to the day and date can u remember comets fans what u were doing, i was 12 and on the sunday before mother made us go to sunday school at st michaels and we could here this noise coming fron derwent park,so we sneaked in over the infamous sewer pipe and saw out first bikes going round ,the noise and the smell was fantastic. Jeff brownhut saw us and we asked if we could get in for nothing on friday night he laughed and said stand at the pit gate and we would get in,true to his work a load of us kids got in that night and that was it we were hooked.i wish i could remember more apart from standing next to the safety fence and soon moving after the first race.Both ian and jeff are no longer with us but i and many others owe them a lifetime of memories and of course thanks to Tony mole i often wonder what us kids would have done without the comets in our school days, cycle speedway tracks everywhere bikes picked up at hanrattys scrap yard trips away to many other tracks,its a crying shame my grandkids who luved going will not have the pleasure we had as kids following our heros. so heres to 50 yrs and hopefully one day the Comets will rise again. Give us C etc .
