And all very we'll there being an ATM across the road......still a bloody nuisance. Should all have been made much clearer to fans. CASH ONLY.

H20 Posted April 19, 2019 Report Share Posted April 19, 2019 What's going on with riders for this meeting ? Never known no one not advertise who is riding in there meeting. Craig is tweeting about everything to do with his meeting bar riders unless it's down to a pairs meeting now !!!! We were going with a full mini bus that turned into a full car but now we looking like we not going to bother at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cinderfella Posted April 19, 2019 Report Share Posted April 19, 2019 (edited) I've posted on the various Glasgow social media pages asking and apart from the 6 riders already mentioned nobody either knows or is willing to divulge who the other 9 riders are likely to be. What had the potential to be a great meeting with a big crowd could turn into a farce unfortunately for Cookie due to poor advertising etc. The only thing that has any decent exposure is the fact that there will be the 4 mascots from the teams participating.

H20 Posted April 19, 2019 Report Share Posted April 19, 2019 Very poor from Craig who is normally bang on with his social media. Not advertising what his meeting actually is and who's riding in it is a huge mistake and one which will make fans not bother. He appealed to Edinburgh fans to attend but they don't know there team.

cinderfella Posted April 19, 2019 Report Share Posted April 19, 2019 Just had a thought - is Cookie not really publicising his meeting because he wants folk to turn up who genuinely support and appreciate him no matter the standard of the meeting rather than fans who only go along to see big pull riders?

H20 Posted April 19, 2019 Report Share Posted April 19, 2019 You have to sell your meeting. I've seen a few comments not happy he charging more to attend his testimonial than Glasgow charge to attend there meetings. Not so much of a fans favourite decision that one.

jenga Posted April 19, 2019 Report Share Posted April 19, 2019 heard Greg Hancock wants to ride for Glasgow . there , that should put a few on the gate . lets just hope the A.T.M. at the fuel station does not run out of cash .. that could be a bit of a dummer .

H20 Posted April 19, 2019 Report Share Posted April 19, 2019 Which of the four teams racing has MPT rode for then ? Looks like he been struggling to get riders to me. That's why he not announced any before now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gazc Posted April 19, 2019 Report Share Posted April 19, 2019 Was looking for a moan free thread and alas I stumbled into this one. I see the nice weather hasn't put everyone on here in a good mood apparently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H20 Posted April 19, 2019 Report Share Posted April 19, 2019 It's not really moaning just trying to understand why a rider pushing his own testimonial has not realised half the riders riding in there meeting. Just seems strange to have a meeting g of this scale and not release the people we are going to watch. Yes its Craig we will all be there for but having the riders competing is a must surely.

To be fair whilst it would be nice it appears that having this on the Easter weekend may have backfired. I will be there though on a nice warm Saturday evening regardless who is riding. And I am sure there will be plenty others from elsewhere who will attend if it is such a big deal for people regarding the line up they just don't go simple, rather than all the moaning on here about it.

Neila Posted April 19, 2019 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2019 (edited) Well it looks like I'm coming up from Workington to watch cookies 'guess the rider' testimonial, better bring a spare pen to write in the last minute attractions !! Well at least it won't be rained off, hope cookie has signed the water cart to ride round and it's 3 times champions tee shirt weather as well !!!!

cinderfella Posted April 19, 2019 Report Share Posted April 19, 2019 (edited) Surely he knows who is going to be riding or is the race card going to be full of blanks for us to fill in? Maybe he has testimonial pens for sale as we're going to need more ink than usual? Edited April 19, 2019 by cinderfella 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuxtonTiger Posted April 19, 2019 Report Share Posted April 19, 2019 So he says the programme arrived some days ago. Is the race card blank???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cj69 Posted April 19, 2019 Report Share Posted April 19, 2019 Josh Pickering said tonight he is riding. Just another 8 (?) riders to figure out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul Stake, Michael Palm Toft and Tom Jorgensen were also announced tonight. Think that leaves 5 places to guess about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
