Always seems really popular at every club he's ridden for but then nobody wants him! Strange. Expand Jekyll and Hyde character.

Arch Stanton Posted December 5, 2022 Report Share Posted December 5, 2022 (edited) Not convinced with that signing at all. The lad finished with a lower average than Kemp in the Championship. After the reserves being their achilles heel this year I thought they’d have built with a strong reserve at 6 this time but obviously not.

There’s a rather unsavoury witch hunt going on over in the championship threads over young Drew which is a bit out of order. Absolutely fine not to rate a rider, I don’t rate Zach Cook for example, but some of the stuff being said about Kemp is rotten. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand Very funny, he scored very well at home towards the end of the season, he didn't ride as well earlier in the season, that is why his average is fairly low but I would have him over Kemp every day of the week 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Shovlar Posted December 5, 2022 Report Share Posted December 5, 2022 So Wolves have signed Zack Cook. Got themselves a great rider who will just go from strength to strength in 2023. Clearly Wolves fans don’t follow the Championship otherwise they would be cheering the signing. Give Zach a few meetings to suss out the tricky track and will be scoring very well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
