I think I wrote all that needed to be said in my programme notes for the last meeting of 2014. I don’t like being cheated but even more importantly, I don’t like fans being cheated. But we were both royally shafted by Herr Wolbert - me in the pocket, the fans with the lacklustre performance on the track. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cookiefan says he has changed since then, so probably should just park it and move on. But not many Poole fans have which is why he gets a bad reception at Poole. Though he does laugh at it, so can't affect him too much? Most riders reckon it spurs them on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last two seasons where we have lost Ully to injury we’ve been left leaderless in the pits with the younger guys getting no direction and pretty much crawling over the finish line. Cookies scoring has remained very consistent in the playoffs but we’ve still fallen short. Scoring is great but when the team needed leadership it just wasn’t there. I’m assuming Glasgow are hunting for a number 1 that can help lift the boys in the pits when times get tough. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think if rumours are true about where he ends up next that Edinburgh might just let him race and leave the captaincy and leadership stuff to Pickering which I think he’d relish tbh. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, but I also feel leading from the front is the best kind of leader, as in on the track. Ully was outstanding at it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nickinho Posted November 20, 2022 Report Share Posted November 20, 2022 I'm quite happy to see Craig Cook go as he was becoming a real downer both on and off the track but i was disappointed to see the services of Connor not being retained as i feel there is improvement in him and his average would have been a good fit in a 40 point team. Anyone have an inkling of where they will both end up next season though? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cast1rn Posted November 20, 2022 Report Share Posted November 20, 2022 Cookie to Edinburgh seems like the most likely, Connor is a very consistent scorer at home just struggled away, I think most teams will be taking a two pointer at 7 which is why he didn’t fit in with Glasgow for 2023.
