A.N.Other

OMG this lad is a walking MIRACLE !! I thought I was seeing some old footage when I saw this clip, but to think he is there at Belle Vue in the pits TODAY is incredible ! Just dont do anything silly with the long road to recovery Tate ! Well pleased to see you LOOKING so good !!

So are you saying that the reason the problem exists, is because Vissing was refusing to ride, because he had "booked his holidays" for last Sat ?

I do have a sense of humour. But upsetting fans by posting HOAX photos and putting them off visiting Northside, will detract from potential revenue, and these days more than ever, we dont want to lose money ! One poster seemingly already BELIEVED that photo !! Have a laugh yes, but not if it any way affects Workington Comets revenue !

There have been some interesting clues as to what one poster really THINKS the meeting was postponed for. And those clues havent been spotted by many on here. Look closer at some recent posts ! You might be surprised ! Many of you might be missing the point. I still believe its for the "bad forecast".

Not sure what part of Workington you live in, but I am near the centre, and to say its "pouring down" would be a MASSIVE exaggeration ! The rooves are slightly DAMP and its easing up already. Not much to talk of at all.

Thanks for confirming my post that is is NOT a photo of Workington Comets Arena Steve !

Let me assure anyone who looks at this.....THIS IS NOT WORKINGTON COMETS GT ARENA NORTHSIDE !!!!! I dont know where it is, but the only similarity with our track is that is seems to have a railway line running close by ! I live in Workington only 1 mile from the track and all week we have had SOME occasional rain, mainly showers, but not anything like enough to cause the amount of flooding in the photo above. THIS PHOTO IS A HOAX AND IS NOT WORKINGTON COMETS ARENA !!

Hi There were RUMOURS a few days ago that they might call this meeting off, due to the England match being on the same day at 5pm. We have tapes up normally at 3pm. There is no sign yet, on any Comets media site that its going to be cancelled or an earlier start time, so I presume it will just be the normal 3pm start. Current Met Office Forecast is 60% chance of a heavy shower, but Sunny Spells all afternoon too.

Well there might be a chilly breeze dropping the temperature to below 70 degrees !

Weather now showing Torrential Rain from 12pm to 4 pm ! Oh dear...not looking good !

I dont think its in the interests of the public to know exactly what is stolen, to be fair. They have mentioned "power tools", strimmers, etc

I dont like Ouzo !

Where do you get "steamed" from ?

Oh...I thought Vuolas was here for the season....not just visiting ?

I wouldnt say the track was in "great" condition, but it was rideable. The biggest problem, and most likely unavoidable, was that the outside line which many of our home riders love to ride on, was too heavy and thick due to the weather. The likes of Tate were trying it out but were coming unstuck in wet mucky track. Hindsight is a wonderful thing, and I would agree that a call off would have been better. But at the start of racing it didnt look as if that would have been necessary !

As a separate issue, I and may other Comets fans saw something distinctly odd happening during track grading and watering at Redcar. The tractor and the grader were often travelling in opposite directions during preparation. ie they were travelling TOWARDS each other ! I was told that this is against BSPA rules. As it appears some time ago an accident occurred at another track where the tractors collided with each other, causing injury. Since then, I AM TOLD a rule was introduced to stop this, and both vehicles had to travel the same way at all times. Is anyone up to speed on detailed rules regarding track prep and can they confirm an offence has taken place, or is this method still allowed ? Incidentally, Steve Lawson remarked that he too thought it was odd, and he has rarely seen tractors travelling in conflicting directions ! I have no idea if what I was told, IS correct, but maybe someone out here can confirm or deny it ?

Workington Comets v Scunthorpe tomorrow is POSTPONED. Apparently due to WINDS. !

Good Question Indeed !

I am sure there is a certain FORMER regular poster on here who would say he KNOWS who it is ?

Well at least "Neila" has a chance of spelling HIS name correctly !

Now you HAVE totally lost me ? Unkeaded ????

Unkeaded Milk...thats a new one on me ? !

They do say it tastes much more creamy than Semi Skimmed, but I have never tried it.

Now now Mr Park !!

I think our last signing will be announced in the next few days. Hopefully by the end of this week anyway.
