RideTheBoards

its a fact that in this sport over the years there has been loads of fallings out behind the scenes, riders hating one another and people move on forget about it and like i said in an earlier post it makes things more interesting for the fans to see some hard racing on the track between two rivals. I think most fans are using ben as an example rather than actually realising what craig done over stepped the line. Only one person who needs to say sorry and he has done that well an effort i suppose and that is Mr Cook Looking forward to reading the Sun tomorrow morning

if he wishes to go to the newspaper, infact they contacted him about the issue then that is up to him. So is it ok for craig to shout out all over twitter about his opinions regarding the matter of being dropped from the gb squad and how he feels towards other riders. so what if craig has released a statement he was the one who made a fool out of him self in front of lots of young supporters and loyal fans from both teams. We hear and see first hand riders getting into arguments at meetings across the country about hard over takes or knocking people off it adds to the excitement a few words being exchanged and then the fans go home and its forgotten, but that behaviour last night over stepped the mark.

We all know whats been going on recently and i think most fans would of expected some very hard racing between barker and cook last night but what happened was actually quite stupid!! People who are slating barker also need to have a good look at Mr Cook he's been no angel the last few weeks and has dropped like a stone in many people's ratings. He over stepped the line last night regardless of what was said he threw the firdt punch and spat his dummy out afterwards, he cost his team very dear and the traveling fans also! Talking of traveling fans I'm not one for stiring or wanting upset between supporters but was i the only one to see the actions of a small crowd of Edinburgh fans kicking off as barker left for the changing rooms. Many youngsters who waited to meet the riders for photo's etc didn't get the chance as security had to jump in due to pushing and shoving?? I won't tar them all with the same brush but what right do they have to mouth off and act in that way after the meeting in front of young children and families? Anyway nice to see Ipswich in the final again thanks Mr cook I enjoyed Last night

I totally agree baldyman if we fire from 1-7 then i dont think there are many teams that will keep with us, have my fingers crossed we wrap it up earlier than heat 15 Gonna go 50-40 to the witches

Only a few days to go before we will see an explosive meeting at foxhall. I believe its going to go down to a heat 15 decider with the Witches just edging it on agg. All depends on the fitness of rohan but i believe we can just hang on. Edinburgh have a very good looking team and will be a tough test from top to bottom. Looking forward to barker v cooky should be interesting after the past few weeks. Roll on Thursday
