Trees Posted October 31, 2016 Report Share Posted October 31, 2016 This. Really irritates me when riders get slated for a bit of handbags, it shows a care for what they are doing and adds to the entertainment. No punches were thrown so does it really matter.As a fan you want to see/hear your riders show passion for your team/country full stop ..... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
damosuzuki Posted October 31, 2016 Report Share Posted October 31, 2016 Hope he stays at Belle Vue, premier could be an issue if the points limit is reduced. I don't believe he is as good as he'll ever be yet. Still fancy him to go up a level and I'f like to see him more adventurous on the lines at Bell Vue next season with his equipment sorted.

I would have put Cookie on a par with Jason Doyle in 2013 / 2014. We all know how Jason has kicked on with his career. Cookie doesn't seem to have had much luck in Poland. Denmark or Swedish experience needed? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cookie doesn't seem to have had much luck in Poland. Denmark or Swedish experience needed? I didn't want to say that, but it would be great to see him progress like Doyle. He's definately 100% focussed so why not. Terrible luck this year with the BV shenanigans coupled with being mucked around in Poland. It would be great to see him in Denmark or Sweden, for sure - given a chance I'm certain he would slot in no bother. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shale Searcher Posted November 1, 2016 Report Share Posted November 1, 2016 UK riders don't seem to have much luck in Poland/Sweden do they? The UK riders names/home Country are possibly not exciting/cosmopolitan as being an "Aussie" There don't seem to be so many UK Whizzkids" Ours mostly seem to aspire at becoming and then staying as "EDR's" Maybe?

geoff 100 Posted November 2, 2016 Report Share Posted November 2, 2016 nice to think he would but he may be a bit expensive for the comets and indeed many other teams other than one up north,would he dare ride for them though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tsunami Posted November 2, 2016 Report Share Posted November 2, 2016 (edited) nice to think he would but he may be a bit expensive for the comets and indeed many other teams other than one up north,would he dare ride for them though Could Cook replace Stead at Sheffield, if the Josh deal doesn't happen ?

RPNY Posted November 3, 2016 Report Share Posted November 3, 2016 Cookie could be a world beater it's frustrating that he isn't. I'm a big fan of his but he's also frustrating to watch when he competes at the top level. Truth be told he should have won the BF on his home track and he should have scored better in the World Cup also. That being said, I just hope he really kicks on next season. Although I fear it could be the same old story for the Brits. Pre season interviews saying they are ready for it to be THE season, then suffer with engine, tyre, exhaust, tuner, weather or whatever else it is issues and it all fall flat again... No disgrace being a domestic star though I guess. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gunner85 Posted November 19, 2016 Report Share Posted November 19, 2016 If Worky could afford Cookie , it would be a massive boost and go a long wait to bringing back good crowds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scaramanga Posted November 19, 2016 Report Share Posted November 19, 2016 He's not good enough for Poland and can't afford equipment and not get meetings to pay for it.Big fish in small pond is his best option given his age. was scoring more in the pre meeting test meetings in poland than the riders that got into the team but never ginen a chance from what im led to believe and all paid for from his own resorces cost him a lot of money and never got a ride 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Triple.H. Posted November 19, 2016 Report Share Posted November 19, 2016 The Poles obviously didn't want there noses put out by what a few idiots on here think is a PL rider who's peaked already I myself shall be wearing my CC111 hat at the football today 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil The Ace Posted November 19, 2016 Report Share Posted November 19, 2016 I'd say he will be at belle vue and Workington. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Endeavour Posted November 19, 2016 Author Report Share Posted November 19, 2016 I'd say he will be at belle vue and Workington. I thought that too but he said on Twitter he wouldn't be Worky number 1. First class guy deserves breaks to go his way in 2017. Miss him at the Dale.

screm Posted November 19, 2016 Report Share Posted November 19, 2016 Haven`t seen it reported anywhere that Cook has signed on yet in Sweden or Poland, which for his career is disappointing. I guess that means he will only race over here in both leagues, he may very well make a handsome living but long term wont make him the rider he could be.
