silverfox Posted October 6, 2019 Share Posted October 6, 2019 Great night ,and all the winners worthy of their awards ,Special mention to Stephen the Kit Man ,great to see someone who works behind the scene's ,and often is down at the ground after an away match, still working into the early hours of the morning , cleaning the strip . Fully deserves winning the club man of the year trophy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JMB Posted October 6, 2019 Share Posted October 6, 2019 For this league £50.000 is nothing, and for what has gone on with the speedway and the field development you cant complain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On a similar topic Jeff Curwen has just stood down from his role as groundsman at the Reds and I was amazed to read he was 80 years old as he put in many long hours on the pitch and had planned to retire when the Reds moved over to Derwent Park but thanks to our lovely council that has not happened.

Dunno how you can say 50 grand is nowt, I’m sure it could have pushed lesser clubs over the edge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidM Posted October 6, 2019 Share Posted October 6, 2019 Sounds a lot to me for league one especially . If we’ve absorbed that it’s another sign of how well this BOD is doing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if 50k is a viewed by you as nothing I'd suggest you give the club a ring and i'm sure Messrs Smallwood etc would like to talk with you.

In a business where win/loss appearance fees fluctuate per game then i'd say they've done a good job too mate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlisle1921 Posted October 6, 2019 Share Posted October 6, 2019 I know we were a couple of days late paying players one month this season but in a league where we went 5 weeks between home games cashflow problems are to be expected. We seriously need at least 2 or 3 more teams in league one asap to make it a continuous season without all of these free weekends that dont do anyone any good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What !!!!! ?.... I'm certain I've read on previous posts on this forum that when the Comets folded they still owed their Workington Town RL hosts a tidy sum ?...and therefore probably still do given that they no longer exist ???

silverfox Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 If the Stadium plans had gone ahead .The Reds would have had to play on DP .So they had to widen and lengthen the pitch .because the Rugby pitch was to small to play football on . So that meant going onto the speedway track . .So it would have been impossible to have had football Rugby and Speedway in the same Stadium . . I Liked speedway and it was a sad day when they said they couldnt carry on financially. So there was no way the Rugby could help them out .
