Quote: Derwent "1. Historically, during periods of success, Workington have consistently had higher crowds than either Barrow or Haven.
2. The ground is not 'shared' with speedway. Town own the ground and rent it out to the Comets on Saturday evenings for the speedway meetings.
However, if Barrow want to go for it then good luck to them. I hope it works out for them if it's what they want. I only hope they realise the implications of getting there and failing.
As a Town fan I don't ever want Workington to aim for SL again. We've been there, done that, had the financial ruination of the club that we have never recovered from.'"
Hence the need for a huge investment
