Being negative about the future of the comets is not very good on a public forum. 🤡

Not being negative at all. My first comment was regarding cookie and batch. Both have their flaws and I was trying to spark a discussion in this thread due to it being quiet for a while.

My second was regarding the financial situation and I clearly stated I hope the comets are here for the foreseeable. If you can't have a wide range of different topics going on in a forum then what's the point of a forum?

This spots got a few wet wipes and snowflakes.

Pretty much common knowledge that workington owe cookie a large amount of money for a prolonged period last season. 

This is a forum, where people discuss topics about speedway in general and workinfton comets. 

Maybe you should leave it @Neila if it offends you

Us with a brain cell know you were starting a discussion/debate. Wouldn’t lower yourself marra getting into a slinging match with them.

The only person I would believe here is Andrew. I would bet if there was any truth in it he won't be owed anything now.

I won't bother in future. I can see why some people leave the forum though.

Anyone watching the crump solo classic?

Bought it a month ago because I got my dates completely wrong. Shame Tate isn't riding but Bowes looked solid in his first heat. Gated well and had plenty of speed. I'm sure having his own machinery (if he does) and track experience is playing a part.

Yeah I’m watching it too. He looks good, blip in his second ride but held his own for most the race just now against Becker and tungate, that mistake cost him.

Yeh, he looks like he'll be a good rider for us. Gates well and the little mistake taking the bend too wide was punished by two good riders.

I think Bowes has an important part to play for Workington. If he can just keep his assessed average, not easy for a first season in GB, then that keeps Hook & Foord at reserve for longer. As that could be the strongest (if not one of the strongest) reserve pairing in the league. Gives Workington real strength at the bottom end.

Hopefully not, maybe came back a bit too quickly,  so a few more weeks to fully recover, start building up the muscle mass up, and be fit and raring to go for the start of the season in around 3 months time

Nope, not at all in my opinion. Just enjoying some down time now he’s healed by the looks of things. Can’t imagine he’d be getting paid massive amounts for competing in something hell have another 15+ cracks at to win. UK and continental commitments is where he earns his money. Probably taking the advice of Darcy ward to take some time off and be raring to go when the season starts.
