Everyone entitled to their opinion, of course. I’ve said in another thread I sympathise with Leicester fans right now. Just thought the sarcastic comment wasn’t really needed. Not for someone who has given so, so much to British speedway over the years and (along with all riders) risks his life and the life of others for our entertainment. Not for the sake of scoring 0 in one meeting when trying to get back into the swing of things after what happened (which I imagine can only really be done by getting competitive track time). Just my opinion. Maybe not a popular one. Best of luck to Leicester for the rest of the season! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christ. Never saw him... he was always riding for Edinburgh on a Friday night when he should have been at Coventry, risking his life for my entertainment. I'm afraid he's a has been. You'll be telling me next that Saint Craig has withdrawn so British youngsters can gain some experience of a big event, the scales will fall from your eyes one day Edited August 27, 2023 by iainb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was a very long time ago... in sport you're only a good as your last match/ race. Ben Cook on the other hand... I'd love to see him win it (even though he's a Poole rider), It'd be refreshing to see a rising star win it than a journeyman for a change Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair there`s plenty to go on, poor performance last night at Leicester then turns up today only to retire then fail to make his second ride, then pulls out. Lets see how he goes tomorrow, if he turns up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noelinho Posted August 27, 2023 Report Share Posted August 27, 2023 I wouldn’t write Craig off so fast. He’s got the fifth highest average in the Championship this season so he’s still got it, he’s just increasingly erratic. But when he’s on it, he’s just as good as he was a few years ago. It was a similar story last season, though not as extreme as this season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IainB Posted August 27, 2023 Report Share Posted August 27, 2023 These modern day race suits do seem to tear rather easily, that's the 2nd time I've seen one rip after a nothing fall. You would maybe have thought that they'd have to be of some kind of minimum standard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The police were there as the guy could’ve died, not sure why you keep bringing this up? Do you get a kick out of someone almost losing their life? As you keep making sarcastic and joke comments about it. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
