OldtimerRay Posted December 18, 2021 Report Share Posted December 18, 2021 Didn’t think that Cook was in Scunny’s plans, although he seems to have rode for everyone else, hope it’s Allen and Douglas in the final 2 places. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is Birmingham track easy to get to. No bothered about distance could always have a stop over Could always bring him to Plymouth, people most welcoming plenty to see if you stay over plymouth hoe, the barbican the sea, visit the mayflower steps and Cornwall just over the border. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mason rode for Glasgow in 2012 but I think there might have been visa problems which stopped him coming back in 2013. We wanted him back in 2014 but he’d been “got at” by Workington which was in Laura’s time. In fairness, Glasgow 2012 was not a good set up, and he wasn’t happy there. We tried really hard to keep him but his mind was made up. It was a good move for him and ok for Glasgow who at least got some money for him. Unfortunately, it was a conditional deal with a small amount up front and the balance when he hit a certain average, which he never did. Mason was a decent hard working rider who kept getting tripped up with red tape which meant he gave up on the sport earlier that he might have. But he seems pretty content back home with plenty of time for fishing despite being a dad twice over!
