  1. Minimum 2 : 5 hour journey, either way not the best of roads,as the A1 can be scary at times !!
  2. Hopefully Mr Cook can move on from the last season issues and ride a speedway bike the best he can https://www.newsandstar.co.uk/news/23205865.cleator-moor-man-accused-strangling-partner-case-dismissed/
  3. Not trying to run speedway on a Friday so Mr Godfrey maybe OK with the comets this time round
  4. At the moment the local rag has not made the connection, in the past the said person featured in the paper when he done well or moved teams in the top flight
  5. This may explain one or two things that went on in the past season with your No 1 https://www.newsandstar.co.uk/news/23205865.cleator-moor-man-accused-strangling-partner-case-dismissed/
  6. Surprisenly got this week's through the post on time
  7. Got paid by someone to keep it down
  8. Any clever people know how many points we have left for the last signing, ta very much
  9. What I'm getting at is when a circus comes to town you can't move for adverts or flyers. But speedway promotion imo is trying to keep the sport a secret yes Glasgow do promote but a lot of it is on social media, when my team was alive (comets) we live in an area that's full of tourists, but very very rarely do you see posters trying to attract the tourists or other people from the area . It is a minimal cost to print posters and get out up in shops ets
  10. As for promoters promoting the sport, Glasgow do a good job. But on my 1 visit and watching on BSN this year the crowd looked poor,. I've always said pick one meeting, do promotion like when a circus comes to town, can't move for advertising, discount tickets available the circuses seem to do well so speedway can maybe do the same.
  11. ££££ s loan fees now and a transfer fee when he improves from Glasgow or Poole
  12. As an avid local speedway fan I have not heard rumours of the cash being splashed. But have heard that there's hardly any riders who don't want to ride for the comets, the main reason I have heard is they want to ride what looks to be a great track. And most importantly have access to ride 7 days a week practicing to improve themselves, so far most are young and have the ambition to progress further through the speedway ranks, Looking forward to seeing these young kids progress and only 2 mile fra yam you never know one of these kids could turn out to be the next Dan Bewley UTC
  13. Snap but I bailed out and bought copies from local Morrisons, so helping out speedway star in a roundabout way, no fault of pinegen, lost in royal mail back log, probably still gonna get Xmas cards at Easter at this rate
  14. Looks like all behind the rebirth of the comets mean business 1st what looks to be a great track now looking like a great team to go with it UTC
  15. Don't want another job. As the yan I've got is enuf
  16. THJ think it's about time you got a hobby to keep ya busy, how about knitting you could knit some team pom poms
  17. Still to arrive in deepest west Cumbria
  18. Wishing Steve lawson a happy 65th birthday, could he be the oldest signing in the league all will be revealed at 8
  19. Agree a little bit. But just glad to have speedway back in Workington, but surely the point of the 3rd league is to bring young kids like Luke etc through the ranks,and onto hopefully bigger and better things ?? Personally I would like a team of up and coming riders gaining experience, rather than building a win at all cost team, but I know to attract a crowd you have to have a good mixture of both . Anyway good luck to all involved, looking forward to next announcement, up the comets UTC
  20. A good 1st signing, other tracks will not be happy,to miss this signing, if any comets fans have lost touch with speedway Luke was very good last year as a 15 year old , got a good future in front of him
  21. Announcement on Facebook tonight at 8 think the team could be named
  22. Will need more money than that !! As the old saying goes how do you make a small fortune from speedway? Start with a large fortune . I'll get me coat
