Aces51 Posted December 10, 2014 Report Share Posted December 10, 2014 (edited) Did Dave Gordon realy just say of Cook, Personally, my opinion of him is that hes one of the most naturally talented riders I've ever seen and he needs to realise just how good he already is, and how good hes capable of being.?! Really?! Fair enough but it probably explains whj BV have struggled for years. Cook is not a natural IMO, he's clearly the more methodical thinking rider. He can't just "do it" he has to work out how he's going to do it. I understand what you mean and why you think that and he is not a natural in the style of the Moran's or Darcy Ward. You say he can't just do it but if you look at the progress he has made in a relatively short speedway career then it is plain to me that he does have a lot of natural talent. Many of the FTR have more experience. Edited December 10, 2014 by Aces51 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bagpuss Posted December 10, 2014 Report Share Posted December 10, 2014 The 'I don't want an easy ride' bit is very much at odds with his continuation in the PL but you have to admire him for his loyalty, every year when he signs for BV he says something like he owes them for their faith in him etc. I'd love to see him race abroad so we can see how good he can be but he is obviously making a very good living doubling up in Britain so you can't really blame him for that. Just hope if he decides to widen his career he doesn't leave it too late. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aces51 Posted December 10, 2014 Report Share Posted December 10, 2014 It's just part of the usual hyperbole when announcing a signing. A bit like riders always having wanted to ride for whichever club they sign for. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flagrag Posted December 10, 2014 Report Share Posted December 10, 2014 (edited) I am pretty sure that Craig Cook would have joined Leicester if there had not been a change in team manager and as Craig has said he owed the fans and club a return after an average season in 2014 Edited December 10, 2014 by flagrag Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
INCOGNITO Posted December 10, 2014 Report Share Posted December 10, 2014 So Kings Lynn name the same 5 that were league leaders til injuries struck.

No Stead replaced Richie - 10x better at the moment ****** replacing toft - 100× better S worrall replacing reade/payne - 1 million times better So yes.

INCOGNITO Posted December 11, 2014 Report Share Posted December 11, 2014 Adrian Cyfer 5.00 Exciting 19 year old from Gorzow who is looking to get more rides by signing up to another league and with Matej Zagar also there there should be no problems with getting there. Would complete a decent line up and be a potential match winner plus become a club asset going into the new stadium. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superguest Posted December 11, 2014 Report Share Posted December 11, 2014 (edited) Please take what incognito is saying with as much salt as possible. Im convinced they are TNT. Hope Cook kicks on this year. A breakthrough yeat at EL level would enable him and Belle Vue a good shot of the play offs.

I have very limited internet time at the moment so I haven't posted some days and certainly wouldn't recommend any Polish rider 21 or under to sign for a British team unless all things are sorted before they sign. I can see the benefit of a new rider coming in but if Max Fricke is allowed to double up, he has to be the best option for Belle Vue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T.N.T. Posted December 11, 2014 Report Share Posted December 11, 2014 Fricke is just doing EL. He doesn't want to ride PL So Belle Vue have their team unless he signs for Coventry who also want him ...... along with Wolves, Poole and Lakeside !!

As far as im aware he doesn't have an assessed average as of yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
