proud panther Posted December 2, 2016 Report Share Posted December 2, 2016 Good luck to Craig Cook next season. Was a pleasure to watch at the Showground last season, & would have loved to have him back this season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MD Posted December 2, 2016 Report Share Posted December 2, 2016 With a middle order of Campton, Proctor and Roynon there'll be more zeros than the national debt away from Derwent Park. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scaramanga Posted December 2, 2016 Report Share Posted December 2, 2016 Just saying that it's not far off a good team what so ever, couple of poor choices thats the thing almost impossible to get 7 riders who are nailed on improvers if it was that easy all teams would be fitting for league title in last month of season With a middle order of Campton, Proctor and Roynon there'll be more zeros than the national debt away from Derwent Park. if roynon gets half as good as he was before a few bad injuries hell be good enough home and away proctor can be a good rider again and mason has shown he can do it just needs a good crew around him to help with setups and such as was prooved when he finished season off on rickys engine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gavan Posted December 2, 2016 Report Share Posted December 2, 2016 Got a lot of time for Workington and their fans but the team looks average to me. Â Cook will no doubt lead the way and along with King will be the top 2 in the league. The other top 4 rider dont like close to ours and the reserves are similar.

Marksman Posted December 2, 2016 Report Share Posted December 2, 2016 I can only agree, that's a terrible tail, Roynon as your number 4, I wouldn't have him at reserve. Hardly terrible, Peterborough have signed Simon Lambert who's coming back from a long lay off on a similar average to also ride at second string, i know who the more talented rider is!

Your entitled to your opinion as it counts for nothing and I know who I'd prefer but you've overlooked one thing if Lambert has a dip in form and goes down to reserve then we have a reserve to go into the top5 with a 5 point average to replace him which is something Workington havn't got.

Marksman Posted December 2, 2016 Report Share Posted December 2, 2016 Last nights fans forum was very positive, very pleased with the team and the turnout was fantastic. Having Craig Cook back is a massive boost for the sport in the town. Having 7 UK based riders this season will be a relief for the promotion. Â But the bigger positives are the new changes to the overall race night experience, including a new onsite cafe open before and after the meeting, a press conference in the bar after the meeting and the new deal with the rugby club which is going to bring more money in through Laura's catering business. This looks to have secured the future of the club for the foreseeable. Well done to the Comets promotion and Workington Town RLFC! Your entitled to your opinion as it counts for nothing and I know who I'd prefer but you've overlooked one thing if Lambert has a dip in form and goes down to reserve then we have a reserve to go into the top5 with a 5 point average to replace him which is something Workington havn't got. Different teams are going to have to different strengths and weaknesses, depending how they are built. Most of these will probably balance themselves out throughout the team. If Peterborough build a balanced 1-7 with Holder as No1, they probably won't have a number 1 whoever it is at the time, capable of winning all 3 of Heats 11,13 and 15 in an away meeting. You could back and forward for a while of advantages and disadvantages of each team in the league. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Endeavour Posted December 2, 2016 Report Share Posted December 2, 2016 You not only have the best rider in the league but a great captain. Cookie and his Dad Will are great team men. Gutted they are not back at Edinburgh. Wishing Cookie, Laura and the Comets all the best in 2017. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scaramanga Posted December 2, 2016 Report Share Posted December 2, 2016 (edited) . think i heard edinburgh are trying to sell him pitty the money laura gave to them to help them stay in buisness couldnt be used to buy him also i would think hes been priced fairly high and if any club do try to buy him it will be yet another sale agreed by arbitration in the end Edited December 2, 2016 by scarra Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCB Posted December 3, 2016 Report Share Posted December 3, 2016 adam has had an injury free season and was going really well at workington , while mason was averaging around 7 points per meet in his last few meetings . im happy , your happy , everybody s happy . except some oddballs .   good luck to ricky at m/bra . If you take Camptons last two meetings, both at home and at reserve then yes he did average 7.07. Add the 3rd and 4th meeting and he's down to 6. Add the 5th meeting and he's down to 5.6 and from 6 meetings he's down to 5.1. Hardly great seeing as two were in reserve and it's a 4/2 home/away split! If you're trying to argue he's a decent signing using stats I suggest you stop now!
