On 10.35 most teams would require a complete restructure, thats if they could afford him in the first place! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben91 Posted May 1, 2016 Report Share Posted May 1, 2016 Edinburgh could get rid of Wolbert and Etheridge and bring back Cook and one other. Belle Vue being a Friday night track now would rule it out though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

damosuzuki Posted May 2, 2016 Report Share Posted May 2, 2016 Feel for Craig Cook tbh. He's done everything right but doesn't seem to be getting a ride in Poland and has all the hassle with Belle Vue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LunnasPerm Posted May 2, 2016 Report Share Posted May 2, 2016 I'd get rid of the entire team, then start again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bruno Posted May 2, 2016 Report Share Posted May 2, 2016 4/5 of us coming up from the midlands for the meeting on the 13th, staying over then going onto Workington on the Saturday. can anyone recommend a decent hotel in the area for the Friday night and also a decent pub close to the track. prefer the hotel to be close to the track as well to save anyone driving. thanks for any advice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Blobby Posted May 2, 2016 Report Share Posted May 2, 2016 4/5 of us coming up from the midlands for the meeting on the 13th, staying over then going onto Workington on the Saturday. can anyone recommend a decent hotel in the area for the Friday night and also a decent pub close to the track. prefer the hotel to be close to the track as well to save anyone driving. thanks for any advice Not really anything close enough that's walking distance, but There is a premier inn in Bathgate with a Toby carvery next door that has a bar area plus does a good carvery and breakfast. It's about 10 minutes max away from the track by car/taxi. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A.N.Other Posted May 2, 2016 Report Share Posted May 2, 2016 Hi Guys Sorry to post this question in the wrong place, but I wanted to draw the attention of Monarchs fans who I am told MAY be able to help me ? I am trying to find out if anyone is running a bus from Central Cardiff to the PL Pairs at Somerset this year ? I need 5 tickets if so. The reason I am posting this message on the Edinburgh thread, is that I have been told that Monarchs have ran buses there in the past. Can anyone help please ? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scaramanga Posted May 2, 2016 Report Share Posted May 2, 2016 Feel for Craig Cook tbh.

george.m Posted May 3, 2016 Report Share Posted May 3, 2016 Polish teams system isn't ideal from a rider's POV, however anyone signing on the dotted line knows this beforehand. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
