Think these “rising stars” need to confirm on which planet they want their star to rise. Gilkes' priority today should absolutely be a national championship.

Think these “rising stars” need to confirm on which planet they want their star to rise. It is probably nothing to do with what the rider wants but the FIM priorities. Jake is in CZ I think in a World FIM Long Track event representing England, A great honour for a teenager. And Gilkes is at Mildenhall for the under 19 Final. It is not his fault that the fixtures clash. I would think that in a normal 30 week season it would have been easy to avoid such a clash. Old Bob needs to be more understanding and less critical, but if he was, then he wouldn't be the grumpy old dissatisfied half fan that we all know and love ??? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
old bob at herne bay Posted August 22, 2021 Report Share Posted August 22, 2021 Since being handed the opportunity of a regular team place sadly Jake has taken up the offer half heartedly. Taking bookings at the frittenden fryer grass track, going halfway across Europe for a long track meeting is his priority. I believe the lad could be a seriously good speedway rider but he needs to learn and polish his technique on speedway tracks not farmers fields or 1000m long tracks. Or maybe concentrate on farmers fields and long tracks and pack up speedway to give someone else a chance ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You obviously don’t like Jake.He was nominated for the FIM long track event.The state the sport is in in GB he would be a fool to turn it down,whether it be long track or not.Kent have a got a decent replacement for.

Like replacing Heeps with Bjarne. could've been worse, imagine Flint or Dan Thompson replacing Freeman! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
