Fenway Bleachers Posted November 23, 2014 Report Share Posted November 23, 2014 If Cookie rides PL in 2015, it will be at the dale where he is loved and a "legend" already. He was rejected at DP remember though does enjoy his visits Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jenga Posted November 23, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 23, 2014 Just a thought.... 1. Craig Cook (9.19) 2. Kenneth Hansen (7.70) 3. Richie Worrall (7.32) 4. Ricky Wells (6.49) 5. Mason Campton (4.66) 6. Nicki Barrett (3.93) 7. Simon Nielsen (3.36) Leaves: 0.09 Thoughts...... numbers 3,6 and 7 are a no go for me im afraid. craig wasnt rejected at worky. he was a reserve and then in the same season became a heat leader at number 1. he wanted number 1s money for that season and the following year was sold because of a disagreement between mr dung all and himself. so i am led to believe... you cant renegotiate another contract when the initial one is still in force. cracking rider in whatever he chooses to ride. natural on a bike. top bloke.

GM Posted November 23, 2014 Report Share Posted November 23, 2014 Poor signing in my opinion. No better than what we had this year in Bach, Wells and Howarth. I don't think he will keep his 7.7 average in the premier league. Just don't understand why Workington would sign a very expensive Danish rider when there are far more better British based riders.

That's not the points money he will be on. Plonker. Of course I don't know if points money wise if he will be on more than a British based rider but it's a hell of a lot cheaper to just pay a British based rider fuel expenses rather than all the flights a Danish rider will require.

Don't know about Hansen but I believe some clubs pay a big points money to Foreigners but the rider has to to pay for travel and flights. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Falcon Hammer Posted November 24, 2014 Report Share Posted November 24, 2014 ive heard poole mentioned for cookie in the elite league Hope so, would be ideal for him. Great foreign contacts & bigger track; also big pressure, will have to perform week in week out. Good luck Cookie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
