Yes.

I think Taylorj may have some comments to make........................... :blink:

Fantastic result from the Comets but first i hope Cameron Heeps is ok, he got up after a fairly innocuous looking fall and then there were two ambulances on the track, the announcer said he was suffering from neck pain. A great team display helped by the two guest Dyer and Cook although Ashley Morris struggled tonight but we lose as a team and win as team and Ash did score well at Ippo. May post some photo's tomorrow. Well done again Worky. :approve:

Little chance of rain i,m afraid.

Weather forecast looking ok but will probably be Cold, season tickets are valid for this meeting.

Cook and Dyer guest for the Comets and Ben Barker returns to the Ipswich side.

Workington have a big mountain to climb to claw back the 20 point deficit from the first leg at Ipswich on Thursday night...... Oh well we'll give it a good go!! Will Richard Lawson be fit, will Ben Barker be fit, who will guest for Chris Mills?

Cant see Worky pulling 20pts back at Derwent Park, would take a monumental effort.

Back to the meet tonight, hope its a good match for all concerned and a safe night for all the riders. Get well soon Richard Lawson, hope he is fit to take his place on Saturday night.

The return match is on Saturday night, hopefully we (Comets) can keep it close at Ipswich who are packing a strong team.....50-40?

I can only see Newcastle being stronger when Andrew Tully comes back from injury.

Solid display from Newcastle, Worky did well to keep it respectable as it looked like a thumping at one point!

Hope Millsy s ok the guy has ben great for Comets this season.

51-39

Why , one point defeat away from home, as with the League and in matches its how you finish not how you start!!

Good effort by Workington, a good team performance.

The re starts did not help either side, seems like ref's interpret the rules in their own way. Newcastle are a strong side and will be even stronger when Andrew Tully returns as his r/r points only totalled 5pts. Lewis Kerr is a great prospect and could prove to be the Diamonds improved rider that helps them towards League success.

Agree with the prompt start times, keep the meeting flowing if possible and the interest up. I know its not always possible with re starts and falls, etc but it can only be a good thing to have a definite start time, especially in the cold weather we have been experiencing lately.

Many fans in the PL giving teams/riders stick this early in the season, PL has not even started yet, some people need to get real...........but they will not.

Well done Redcar!

Well done Worky, phew that was close.

A bit cloudy now....

10 miles from the track, 11 degrees blue skies and sunny.....

:lol:
