Batch if he does not re - sign for worky ?

Read what I said, it's often cheaper to fly someone from Denmark to say Bristol,than pay UK based riders to drive from say Yorkshire to Plymouth

Sometimes it's cheaper to fly a rider in rather than pay millage allowance to travel, and some amounts UK based riders are asking is unbelievable, a foreign rider is often cheaper. Think about it how many young riders, good or not so good want to be full time speedway riders, without having a 2nd income !!

That was when he rode for Poole, over riding on a crap track 🤪 a lot more settled on a decent track at worky 😁

Worky / Northside have been chosen to host the FIM European 125 championship in August. Maybe a minor FIM meeting, but if things go well and the bigwigs are impressed, may lead to bigger FIM meetings being held at Workington in the future ?

Just like speedway then 😛

Your in the building trade, maybe you could build something new for the stadium, won't take long as to make it fit inside the stadium, it will only take a few bricks 😁

Think you best take your blinkers off, it's a small ?? stadium ( could say more 😝 ) but they are having a good go to attract crowds and entertain the fans so hats off to them for doing that 👍 maybe @lewy could help them out more ££££ 😃

Ask @lewy he knows most things, he thinks 🙃

Was rumoured, thought you would know 🤪

Most shops were taken over after a buyout, now being renamed TG Hughes or something like that, some shops closed

Done UTC 😀🔵⚪

Think at one time WH Smith were wanting a lot of money to stock the magazine, don't know if it still applies now, but up in worky, speedway star is on the shelves at Morrisons. I get mine via subscription, and today for the 1st time for a while, it turned up on Thursday

Unfortunately think a Friday nite will fit in better for continental commitments rather than a Saturday at worky

It's another time zone in the far north

Another thread that has turned into a Poole one 🤪 but at least they are keeping tabs on who are going to beat them

Don't know what speedway you were watching, but Newcastle were definitely a glamour club with Tom and Joe Owen having a 11 point average and winning by big margins, even though it pains me to say this as a comet's fan. Havvy had about 4 very good seasons with the comets, latter to be team manager for various clubs then making Redcar what it is now. RIP havvy

Sad news for older worky fans, Redcar/ Middlesbrough Newcastle and others, Brian Havelock has passed away

Sad news this afternoon for Redcar/ Middlesbrough Newcastle and Workington fans plus others, Brian Havelock has passed away

Watch again it's definitely a 5-1 😄 think we got 4 in the 1st 4 heats 😁

If you want to see a good heat, look on Comets Facebook page and watch Vinnie passing 2 pilots to get a 5-1 😁

The clip from the awards on tiggers Facebook, showed footage of bomber racing at ash field in the play off final heat 15 , so the audience and others could see speedway at its best, mind bomber wasn't exactly dressed up

Been various zoom meetings planned this week, was told at the weekend, if things moved forward as expected, a AGM may happen before Xmas, several promoters are not happy with the delays, as potential Xmas season ticket sales won't be available, and are a month or more late approaching potential sponsors, as at the moment they don't know what or how many meetings they are telling sponsors about, (championship)

A few years ago apparently everything was agreed, off they trot to Tenerife, only for on the 1st day, a team said they did not agree with what was agreed , throwing the meeting into turmoil, after several hours of new discussion, common sense prevailed and original plan was voted on and passed, but since then several people / teams were not trusted

No begging bowls left BSPL have got them all trying to get a team / new facility to join the premiership 😄
