Expand Some clubs don’t get anywhere near that sort of cash for headline team sponsorship. Shows how daft Cook is to blow away CFS money. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grand Central Posted May 11, 2019 Report Share Posted May 11, 2019 It still is a little inconsistent for CFS to be still 'using' an image of Craig Cook on the front page of their own website and extolling their previous association with him to promote their business rather than updating the information with 2019 details instead. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OveFundinFan Posted May 11, 2019 Report Share Posted May 11, 2019 If CCook has a good meeting tonight he may well land a premiership ride - thats if Roscoe allows him to ride. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand All meetings should just adopt the Polish system.. On the Polish thread it was said all front wheels have to be 10cm away from the tapes.. And watching the racing out there, it is very strictly policed by the start marshall and ref.. No room for rollers, or 'twitching' as the tapes will be touched... Very rarely see a restart for tapes issues in Poland.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand Not that hard but if you want to steal march on the other three then be the first to drop the clutch - most of the time the refs call it back BUT sometimes they don't. We know who they are, Sarjeant, Andersen, Ellis are three others that spring to mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand Agree,you don’t see the riders messing the Start Marshall about like they do here ,the match I watched last week he was even straightening them up if he though they were lining up at an angle ,no messing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand I never actually met Cook but he seems like a good bloke committed to the sport. Yes he has made a few mistakes but he is a top class rider and his own man who doesn’t care about what people think of him, most of which appears to be speculation and rumours. For all his loyalty for BV I think he’s been treated badly by Lemo and also by Chapman. Give him a break. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
