Fromafar

Belle Vue had signed him beforeEdinburgh.

He may be new to speedway but he knows how to ride a motorcycle definitely one for the future.He can actually get round Armadale! Impressive.

Up against it but have seen better riders than him struggle for years at Armadale think he will improve.Ref let him have a flyer in ht 14 rerun to boost his confidence .Really like Riss he has talent this could be a big year for him and is the main reason the Monarchs have seen off the oppo at that Dale so far this year.IMO

Decent meeting some good dices,2 observations ,the ref wasn't going to give Worrall a fast start,and Richard Lawson doesn't give a stuff for his team mates as Luna and Worrall.

I think it highlights how far the standard has drop in British Speedway ,whatever we think of Craig's situation,he states in SS that he is not up to speed in Poland,these engine tuners must be rubbing their hands.

Typical BSPA ,they still don't know what is in the "best interests of the sport" nothing changes!

Given your connection with the Club could you not just correct the Poster if he has misunderstood the Newsletter .

Good choices should be a good match.

I ha I have no complaints regarding him coming back to PL,all I saying is it was his choice,he felt he could not go any further in PL terms,but now he needs money so PL is his easy option,as nobody else wants him abroad.Like I said in another post there are plenty riders of Cooks standard abroad.

Maybe so,but it was his decision to give Britain a miss.!

Certainly ups the average age of the Team we will have the most expierianced Team in the League!!!!!!!

It is ,income v expenditure is what it is all about .

It is interesting that Brummies failed at EL and PL level in recent seasons and appear to have found NL attracts there best crowds.Think that tells you something regarding watching the same riders in your Team most weeks.IMO. Plus not paying overrated foreign rider more money that what they are worth.

They may be cheaper,chasing big money is a dodgy business.He was trying to be ambitious though.IMO you don't have to ride abroad to be a GP rider ,I suppose riding against the top men might help though.There are plenty "Craig Cooks" in the sport regarding talent.

I agree.

I have similar thoughts on a lot of your points,unfortunately we all know it is never going to happen.

Plus when does the money get paid.

Only had Couple of meetings not picked every week.

I wouldn't ,don't think the service would be viable.IMO

G I agree with a lot of your points but for me sadly the sport is just in to much of mess to be taken seriously as a National competition nowadays and is just 4guys doing 4 laps and a lot of fans just take it or leave,if somethings else pops up.Personaly a few years ago my social life revolved round the sport not now though.Its just not credible to me .

He should have been wary of the Poland situation,there were better riders than him been treated the same way in Poland.I appreciate what he was trying to do though.

Have to agree regarding viewing on back straight.

If these 7 riders all turn up together for a meeting they have a good Team.How many important meetings they do remains to be seen

The trouble is that 99.9% of BSPA marketing teams ideas are make on the back of the same fag packet judging by their results.

I said certain posters!
