He left Glasgow on a 7.68. he could moan every meeting as long as he can improve off his starting average and I’d still be happy. you are prob right , i would rather have a well balanced team with no improve in them than an out and out number 1 . then the results may come your way . viss still a moaner on a 5 or 10 point average .

JanAndersen Posted October 18, 2022 Report Share Posted October 18, 2022 What’s the thinking with Cook? Always get the feeling he’s on the brink of chucking it tbh. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I personally think he had a better season than what his average shows. He literally had 3 disastrous meetings at Glasgow mid season with accidents and bike failures which dragged him down. On an 8.2 ish average if he can perform as he has done in the past he will be an absolute steal, I just don’t think it’ll be Glasgow, they have tried the last 3 seasons building a team around him and it just seems that if we lose the other experienced member in the team (Uli in the last two seasons) then the remainder of the team falls apart.

Kye and Tom are on exactly the same average (when discount is applied) one made his average average at #5 the other #3, I think Tom at 3 and another rider at 5 will show his true average this year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Debatable I doubt very much it's 'up' in quality of racing (BV excepted) or regularity of fixtures but it undoubtedly is in terms of quality. Lots of riders the same of course but no Doyle, Lambert, Fricke, Zagar, Kurtz, Holder, Museilak etc in the Championship.

He started the season well, had quite a dip that wasn't helped by some really bad luck with bikes and a few visits to the polyfoam (and the crashes didn't help the equipment woes), that weren't his fault, but he came back strong in the British final. He's better than his average still, for me. Probably not a ten pointer, but good value as long as he's in the right frame of mind, which is the risk. I'd choose Basso over Craig if I had to take one, because he's just too exciting, but I'd happily have both back. He's a bit of a moaner but I wouldn't mistake that for lack of desire - more frustration, for me. He always looks more relaxed talking to people after matches. I think he just wants to be left to produce his best on track without any distractions, and I can understand that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noelinho Posted October 18, 2022 Report Share Posted October 18, 2022 (edited) Vissing was great at #3 in 2019. I'd happily take him back too. He can moan all he likes in the pits... I don't stand there! Edited October 18, 2022 by Noelinho 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s essentially about one better rider per team. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's probably two when you factor in the other half a dozen who ride in the Prem and not the Champs, I expect another six to eight to reappear next season now the Poles have relaxed the rules. I'm not here to defend the top division as its been shambolic this season and has one decent track in it but there's no doubt its a step up in quality of rider. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diablo Posted October 18, 2022 Report Share Posted October 18, 2022 Lawson is a non starter & has had his stint at Glasgow & southern based now so never going to happen. Glasgow will keep Brennan & Bailey only & probably sign Starke & try for Pickering if Edinburgh don’t run. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
