So what are you paying you 19 quid for? Its not a sport and it's not very entertaing.   Do you pay good money to watch rubbish films at the cinema on a regular basis? 

I don’t pay £19. Netflix at £5.99 for films and the rest is a licence fee for a public service broadcaster that lacks scrutiny and does what it likes which I cannot seem to get out of paying. When speedway bothers to put out seven man teams on a weekly basis and not Mr R/R to make up a team and runs from late March to October, uses local talent who grow into a team and have honed their craft and are not gate and go merchants, puts on individual meetings such as the 16 Lapper, then I might contribute to the coffers of the local promoter but given that this sort of entertainment is now confined to history and decent promoters no longer exist I seem to be saving money.

In my opinion, the two meetings that drop off Cook's Rolling average were 5R 10pts and 5R 13 points.

Kings Lynn only had the 1 meeting on or prior to the 23rd May which, in my opinion, are his only qualifying rides for his new average so only drops one meeting from 2019. His 2nd & other meeting was on the 27th May which comes in to his change of average for the 1st July.

Staggering. I was just a wee lad when i first saw him ride for young England at Romford way back in 1970!

And 5 years later he was beating Ivan in a run off at Wembley. What a day that was...

And by the time you saw him ride he already had a glittering moto- cross career behind him and didn’t take up speedway till he was about 29

I know, unbelievable really. How good would he have been, if he'd have started speedway earlier in his motorcycling career.

Happy 80th birthday Sir Tiger...

 

When you see some of the names on the honours lists year after year it is a travesty that Tiger has not joined those ranks.......
