Somerset v King's Lynn KO Cup final 1st leg 17/10/18
topaz325 replied to tellboy's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Once again the paying public suffer...….Speedway in the UK. -
The first meeting in this double header versus Lakeside is the second leg of the Championship Shield trophy cup medal medallion locket, so by Friday night we will know what sort of lead (?) the Hammers have to bring to Derwent Park. The second meeting is a League fixture the abandoned one from a few weeks ago but one we must complete , if nothing else but to prove the professionalism of the sport. Such a shame the last meetings that are vital for the Comets are all finals and are squeezed into a few days in October when really the League fixtures should have been completed by August , leaving September and worst case scenario October free for the finals. Hope Rasmus is fit and well for the last weeks of the season, rider of the year for the Comets. Good luck Worky.

First of all, hope Rasmus is ok. Commiserations to the many travelling Glasgow fans, some of the best fans in Speedway, safe journey home. Wow another nail biter of a meeting, well done to all the lads rode their socks off, man of the match Mason Campton, take a bow. Still in a daze!! Three finals to get through but limited days in October left.. Once again well done the Comets. -

Not an ideal situation to run two meetings in a day , this will surely have an impact on traveling fans. -

This is assuming that Saturday night at Derwent Park is rained off........but the weather forecast for Workington is rain all day Friday and Saturday . -
So this match has been hastily rescheduled for Sunday evening with the first leg taking part at Glasgow at 13:30 pm, the only sensible decision really given the awful weather forecast for Friday and Saturday. I assume the Tigers will still be using Ricky Wells in place of the injured Craig Cook and Workington will be using rider replacement for Dan Bewley. Lets hope for some good racing and may the best team win.

Another great trip to Torun, good weather , friendly people, nice food and the beer! plus the prices of food and drink. Oh and the Speedway was first class too, not so good was the Polish chap dancing and cheering when Tai fell off!

People would just bet from their phones or betting shops and wander back to the pub. The lost art of attending live sport.

Yes its a shame there is no fixture this week when the spirits are high, hopefully we will have a dry October , can still see a double header with Lakeside though. -
Workington v Edinburgh 29/09 7:00pm koc 2nd leg

I am still buzzing too!! Cannot believe we actually pulled that score back from Friday night, well done to all the riders, mechanics and staff. Good move in hindsight to put two good gaters out in heat 15, as much as Richie Worrall tried he could not pass Nicolai and Ty. The two Monarchs fans standing near us were totally dejected when Ricky Wells was rightly excluded from ht 15 but fair play to the Monarchs fans who travelled down to Derwent Park when many thought it was a forgone conclusion that their team would win on aggregate, me included. -
