Well worth a look I don't doubt her at all seen her race in person so don't need to watch video. My comment is not a negative one but a real one based on personal experience and good team management.

Bellers101 Posted December 28, 2023 Report Share Posted December 28, 2023 Workington need some riders with established GB league pedigree to finish the team off now. Interesting team building so far but 3 newcomers to GB and the enigma that Cook now is could cause them a few problems. Good to see Worky back in the championship though. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be honest with yourself, would they have signed a rider on a 4.00 who struggles to get a point in the continent if they were male? Her signing is just pure tokenism, a gimmick. And giving her "the boot" if she fails to make any kind of impact will look even worse for Workington after they've made such a big deal of her signing. If she fails Workington are stuck with her. Spot on. I have nothing personal against her and genuinely wish her well. But as with her wild card in a round of GP2 this is just a case of box ticking from the Workington promotion and a publicity stunt (a very good one at that). I would like to see more female riders at the higher level but they have to be good enough. Everyone loves a novelty but soon the novelty wares off. The Comets fans will soon get tired of her if she doesn't do the job after a few meetings. I do hope though that she proves me wrong. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As long as any rider gives there best comets fans will support them,he or she it dont matter , and how many away tracks will benifit as people will go along to watch her.i hope she does well not as a " comet" but as just anyother rider,then some of u will have alot of pie to eat. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly and that is the argument I always put forward in cases like this. A very good example is Horse Racing and Racheal Blackmore. She is one of the best jockeys out there. The media have tried to big her up as a trailblazer for women but she will have nothing to do with it. As far as she is concerned she is on equal terms with the blokes and no fanfare should be given to her just because she's a woman. However my argument has also been it should be the best person for the job regardless of whatever gender, etc they are. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
