Recommended Posts

I bet you wish you knew what you are talking about.

come on ive been very good lately and not joined in the 'fun'.

 

Apologies for missing off the wink to show it was just light hearted banter.

 

I hope Ged sticks with you actually. Some stability is good for all clubs and Pboro need some right now.

 

If not its another winter of uncertainty which no one really wants - even those that have the odd dig.....

Got the emotional interview bit from Ged Rathbone no doubt.

 

When he signed for Peterborough did expect him to rattle in a few maximums home and away, but that hasn't happened for some reason , its true he seems to of gone backwards for some reason but that could be just a machinery issue or whatever else, his average has dropped slightly but he will therefore have more choice team wise in the PL in 2017

He isnt as dominant on big tracks like PB or the new BV. Watching him at BV he is reluctant to go right out wide in the mid to latter part of the meeting and at times will frustratingly stick like glue to the white line which leaves him vulnerable. Riding like that on big tracks isnt going to get him anywhere if he gets another chance in Poland. He may be better to try the second tier in Poland which is littered with PL standard riders which he could compete against and get himself better known. Having a try out once a year with Gorzow wont present much opportunity as a couple of duff rides and its door closed.

 

I could see Cook switching EL clubs next year to one of the smaller tracks and coming back to EDI, milking the cash cow of easy heat wins to boost his finances and confidence.

Only difference on Friday was his gating wasn't great. the speed he was building would have been enough to pass most visiting riders but difficult to pass home heat leaders. Ghosted past fisher as if he wasn't there in ht1 and did the same to wolbert in ht13. as shown in ht5 once he was in clear air he equaled fastest time of the season. So whilst he isn't on top form he's not that far away
