A don't think rode in the Championship last season, and his Premier average is surely over 6, so as per Nicholls/Kennett,,,, he'll be told to 'jog on' ;)

I know we are debating the rules for 2018, but from your statement, if C Cook has a poor GP season & is not chosen for 2019 & is only riding PL & abroad, does this mean that he will not be allowed to ride CL even if he has an old CL average. Could be interesting for further rule amendments.

It will depend if he is in favour and who wants to sign him....

British riders should be exempt from any such ruling imo ...

Its in a bit of a mess,,, so how can't Kennett do CL, based on his  2016 PL 9.27(?) ave, whereas Cook has a CL ave. now anyway :blink:

and over 6.00 in there somewhere, lol

Any rider that's riding in Poland we just need to rule out.

mads kornielison is a good shout we wont be able to get a decent no 1 with being a sunday

track so it is what it is.Its alrite saying we are running this season I for one a happy with that

but as ive alresdy mentioned if we start getting beat home and away every week the crowds

will dwindle to nothing therefore putting nxt season in doubt.

Or indeed Kristian Lund. 

As I remember he wasn’t the same rider after he lived on a farm in Wales with NKI, another Dane whose name escapes me for now, and some sheep. 

Lund was pretty good at Newport but was always pretty poor on away tracks. He had a horrible injury at Newport in the same meeting Wato first done his ankle in and that was the end of him as a six point man. 

He lived on the farm with NKI and Mads K. NKI never went out partying, the other pair did. Then look at how their careers panned out!

Hi Pinny. Just to reinforce what you say about NKI. When Newport came to Newcastle, Puk never came into the bar after the meeting, but stayed in the vehicle outside whilst his mechs were in the bar. That doesn't happen very often does it. Nice shy guy Puk. 

Lund was a brilliant gater, but would often lose a place every lap as he couldn't defend his position. Craig Cook used to have the same problem in his first  season at Worky but soon got out of that habit. Always felt that Kristian Lund was too big and should have worked on his fitness cos he was always big.

was brent werner the same while he was at newcastle

he wasnt that shy but did sit outside in the van after the meeting  but he did have a young child at the time if i remember right

a lot of the workington fans didnt really like the fact he "didnt socialise " like some of the others
