Gavan Posted April 10, 2015 Report Share Posted April 10, 2015 Hope he throws out his toys like he did in his last visit to Foxhall - 15 pt max and broke track record once out of the last 3 times he behaved even then had 2 rollers as per usual. time before he scored 11 and hated being on the end of a team riding 5-1 and as per normal sulked and rode back to the pits rather than shake hands, and then the time before he didnt even complete 2 rides. Lets be honest good rider as he is and yes i would love him at number one for us, the bloke is a bit of an idiot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Blobby Posted April 10, 2015 Report Share Posted April 10, 2015 (edited) Im sorry im still unsure as to why i need to post this on the Belle Vue thread? Craig Cook is struggling in the elite league i get that. However my team are in the Premier League. Im asking if Monarchs fans are worried his poor form could spill into the Premier thus affecting their team. Surely this is relevent to the Edinburgh thread? I couldnt give 2 hoots about Cook in the Elite but hope he struggles against us! He does usually throw his toys out at Foxhall! Eh maybe because he was riding for belle vue when under performing and not us. If he starts under performing for us then the point your trying to make is relevant until then your just sprouting nonsense Edited April 10, 2015 by Mr Blobby Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheScotsman Posted April 11, 2015 Report Share Posted April 11, 2015 How am i spouting nonsense!!!!!! 'Cos we all say so!! Form is temporary, class is permanent. Cookie rode well in the PL last season but his EL form dipped. So the two are not intertwined. He knows his gating is not at its best at the moment hence him practising after last night's match. Bit soon to ring alarm bells after 2 away EL matches is it not? But hey it's Cookie so he's fair game for everyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely , rather than saying things like 'go to the Belle Vue thread' try having a discussion and give reasons why you think he will be ok. Why get so defensive? The fact Cook is a prat is irelevent we are talking about his riding 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely , rather than saying things like 'go to the Belle Vue thread' try having a discussion and give reasons why you think he will be ok. Why get so defensive? The fact Cook is a prat is irelevent we are talking about his riding I think we've all answered though. No-one is worried about Cookie's lack of form in the EL which is all based on 2 away matches in 2 days. If he is still struggling in the EL in 2 months time I still won't be worried as long as his PL form is good. Equally, if he bangs in maximums (maxima really) in his next 2 EL home matches then I won't be going overboard that he will never drop a point in the PL. Pointless discussion really, but I have some spare time on my hands!! You should be worried about Tungate's away form and Hawkins' decision making (or since it's only 5 weeks till he's due at Armadale again is he getting everyone prepared for his absence?)

The fact Cook is a prat is irelevent we are talking about his riding This is what they do question anything that remotely resembles criticism to anything Edinburgh then you are frowned upon you are just not supposed to criticise as they are the untouchables but if you look at the criticisim they vent upon other teams and there rider's especially Glasgow then this is ok in there small wee world that they reside. Double standards amusing all the same the thing is Gavan you should just do what we do and not give a toss because it really cheers us Tigeratti up with the p*sh that is posted from time to time and the thing is they actually believe most if not all off it My appendix is on it's last legs with splitting my sides laughing at some off the post's. There are a few that are mostly reasonable The reply from the Scotsman above proves that and Youngy when he is on is pretty fair.

There are some others too who you can get an intelligent discussion with. However, the volume of posts are just of a football nature - mine is bigger than yours. Can only imagine they're just trying to earn their stripes within the Monarchy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
