Luckily its only Workington!!

Only Workington did turn them over.

UTC!

Guests, in the end, made the difference I think. Harris started poor but his two wins at the end were vital. 

Boring racing at start but picked up at the end. Especially with Harris bombing around the outside and up the inside

Well done the Comets and a big thanks to Bomber and the Billericay Blaster.  You guys helped bring a bit of cheer in what has been a challenging season to date.

What was going on with Vinnie, didn't come out for his last ride ?

I wouldnt be surprised to see Vinnie taking a break from speedway soon.

Oxford riders were trying their best to take out our riders. Poor max had to withdraw and kemps sore

Max didn’t withdraw, he completed 4 rides and came 2nd in his last race. Mitch locked up on the back straight causing the crash with Max, it look nasty. Luke clipped the fence in the Drew incident. There was an unusual amount of crashes tonight though, which is never good. The odd one was Vinnie breaking down at the back then withdrawing with an injury? Hopefully he’s ok, there’s no love lost between Oxford fans and Vinnie but nobody wishes him or anyone to be injured. I didn’t see any intentional dirty riding from where I was standing.

Mitch took out max on the back straight with Max coming second due to Mitch's exclusion. Max still had a programmed ride and was replaced by Jakobsen.

Drew was taking out by Killeen near first bend

You make it sound like the Oxford riders were dirty, I don't think Mitch or Killeen are dirty riders. Max may have been taken out of his last ride for tactical reasons.

I didn't say they were dirty? You can clearly see it says "took them out". Yes it was accidental, and my comment prior to this one was in jest.

Also, if you watched the stream, you'd have seen the interview with Baz where he said taking Max out was due to him feeling the effects of the crash

Sorry took them out sounds like they did it on purpose. No I have not paid to watch a stream that does not involve my team!!

Yeah been a difficult year for Vinnie.  I expected him kicking on this year but its tough when you get injured and then struggle to score points on your return. Being at No 2 just compounded the dufficulty really.

They use guests to lose meetings(last Sat).The guest Team Manager also helped.

Also helped the Poole riders in heat 15 weren't really Poole riders but Berwicks B team 😉😉😉
