eide67 Posted September 5, 2023 Author Report Share Posted September 5, 2023 A top guest for Cookie (Nicholls/Schlein/Kerr/Wright/King/Riss) and this could be a good close match, but I have a feeling it will be R/R. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LisaColette Posted September 5, 2023 Report Share Posted September 5, 2023 Edinburgh preview show on YT tonight, they might have news of a No1 guest? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Shovlar Posted September 5, 2023 Report Share Posted September 5, 2023 Pirates need all three points and if they don’t get them it will be a poor show. They are all riding well, have a reason to win and there are to be no excuses.  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Blobby Posted September 5, 2023 Report Share Posted September 5, 2023 I’d be using tomorrow as a good bit of track time before the important matches on Friday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact that the 'withholding his services' statement has been given halfway down a preview piece on the British Speedway site with nothing yet on the Edinburgh website and nothing mentioned in last night's preview show is disappointing.

Struggle to hit 30 I hope I'm wrong but R/R at #1 and the NDL reserve points to a comfortable Poole victory. Edinburgh seem to be putting all their eggs into the Friday double-header basket, which is risky. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was clear when Leicester got r/r after the clrc that they got the facility due to it. Edinburgh just don't seem to have been wanting to declare it reasons best known to them. Sad, like you say but I can't see Craig coming back now. That's 2 seasons in a row had this going on 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lbw Posted September 6, 2023 Report Share Posted September 6, 2023 (edited) C'mon the PIRATES You can doooooooo it! Joe Thompson is in fine form at the moment & he'll make a big difference down at reserve! Ben Cook our gourmet chef will serve up a treat! Edited September 6, 2023 by lbw 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Shovlar Posted September 6, 2023 Report Share Posted September 6, 2023 It will be huge disappointing if we don’t get the win tonight. But rumour has it that if Poole do finish top they will pick Oxford in their mini league rather than two teams right at the other end of the country. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheWellBehavedWorrall Posted September 6, 2023 Report Share Posted September 6, 2023 What’s actually happened to Craig Cook? I saw something about a photographer mentioned in the CLRC topic, but couldn’t find anything on it. It’s disappointing because on his day, he’s a tremendous speedway rider.

Steve Shovlar Posted September 6, 2023 Report Share Posted September 6, 2023 Perhaps a season too much for Craig Cook. The crash and injury to the photographer perhaps the straw that broke the camels back. He looked disinterested and one race in the CLRC before packing his gear away showed a rider who just had had enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
