the problem is when the british riders make a bad start to a meeting, especially in the world cup it takes a lot to get them going. plus the team spirit doesn't sound too good, even if denmark had made a bad start, i'm sure the team spirit would have still been there to pull them through it.
it was unfair on simon to put him in the team anyway. he's been struggling all year. its probably his worst season in the elite league and yet he's picked for the world cup, doesn't make sense even if it is at coventry.
hoping the aussies can give them a run for their money. interesting that the aussies have a team of ex/current poole riders and do a lot better than a team of ex/current coventry riders!!
i'm not trying to make it sound like he's a victim, perhaps i should have worded it differently!!
just meant its a shame his flight got delayed and couldn't make it on time, so he could have his chance to qualify like everyone else.
