scotchopper Posted October 11, 2013 Report Share Posted October 11, 2013 What is the point in this meeting, neither sides giving a toss about their line ups. Morten risager guesting for cook? What a joke There is no rider in the league that could replace cookie but i think they haveone of the best available. Newcastle and somerset have riders that are close but they race each other tonight. Ryan Fisher and Kevin Wolbert are previous monarch no1s that could be considered, guess what Belle Vue race Peterborough. Risager was excellent last week, not just the race he beat cookie he was threatening in all races. He looked just as good in the 2 previous visits as well. The rumour was that he was asked immediately after the meeting and I cannot blame the monarchs promotion for that. Given the tigers septet I expect Morten to score similar to what cookie would have. thinking of other options (best riders in oither pl teams) aaron summers - used before and would have been an ok choice rene bach - never overly impressive at the dale ben barker - never going to happen ricky wells - racing for glasgow kozza/stormy - reasonable choices but neither fantastic oliver allen - always poor at the dale, frightened of the track josh auty - hasn't been great at armadale for a while michel bech - doubt he would have come/too expensive magnus karlsson - not any better that risager as far as el riders not in the pl (i think we'd have up to 6.31), only viable option thomas h jonasson - would have been nice as he missed deek's meeting but never great at the dale cameron woodward - too far for one meeting lewis bridger - no thanks adam skorniki - could have been interesting Given he has recent experience of our track and a decent performance i think is the best choice out there 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neb Posted October 11, 2013 Report Share Posted October 11, 2013 magnus karlsson not any better than risager are you sure? magnus has been in great form lately and has beaten your beloved cook 4 times at three different tracks in the last 2-3 weeks.in saying that i believe he has a thumb injury after his crash at belle vue on wednesday night so the chances are he would not of been able to ride.

Sorry I meant at the dale from what I've seen this year, magnus was immense at the plrc. Risager didn't really work out tonight but I commend the monarchs promotion for trying someone different. Meant to say well done James grieves, that was him at his best tonight! It's been a while but was nice to see him go out on a high and with some nice words to say about Edinburgh as well. Have a good retirement. Edited October 11, 2013 by scotchopper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL, seriously why was he not riding, bit odd don't you think as he's a Glasgow asset also Anders was not riding too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulco Posted October 12, 2013 Report Share Posted October 12, 2013 Apparently Bager has a broken wrist . Thought it was quite a good meeting last night , shame so many guests , but at least a Tigers legend was the star of the show and i had a wee tear in my eye when he punched the air after winning heat 15 . Will Scotland have a successor i wonder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will Scotland have a successor i wonder Oh I see, thank you for the answer. I thought all Danish fixtures had finished, I could be wrong. Good to see James finish on high, proper legend and real nice guy. Will be sadly missed by fans and riders alike. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
