Craig Cook?


Recommended Posts

Having watched Craig at home and away so far this year, he looks to be back in the zone and happy,  the points scored is the indication of this, yes he had a wobble just before Redcar away and in the 1st heat, but came back in fine form, then laughing and joking in post meeting interview on BSN.. Also been very happy to be interviewed on the center Green at worky.

On his day he’s still class however those days are hard to rely on happening now. 

 By any chance was his day 2 May 2024?

He'll soon implode, not if, just when.

Next week then, I presume? :D

Loved watching him at BV, always gave his all, and a great lad to talk too..

Hope he has a great season..

If he does, come SON, and any of the "big 3" are injured, he would be the best option to replace any of them..

So are some of us Monarchs fans who have been down twice so far this season to support him.

Well done Cookie lad.

Hopefully Craig continues his brilliant form because we all know how good he truly is on British tracks.

Pleased to see Cookie riding well - I recall his time at Foxhall was it 2021? I saw him ride in 2 meetings and he scored 5-14 and 5-15 so he was pretty much on it then! A confidence crisis has done for many a top sports man / woman / etc over the years so lets hope thats all behind him now.

Problem for Cook is he isn't the most popular rider so when he has a poor meeting he gets the most stick, but when he does well he doesn't get the same amount of praise back. Can't be fun to have, that would affect anyone.

And that is something that baffles me..

Some will complain that "he let us down", yet the sport is very small with maybe 40,000 followers at best, with around 20,000 watching each week..

So it makes little difference if he did, or he didnt...

Hope the season goes well for him, but, if he feels he needs to take a step away at any time, then it wont mean the end of the world will it. ?

He doesn't get the praise he probably deserves as to be fair he's expected to be good and get a decent points haul, he's a quality Speedway rider, he has let himself down on a few occasions in the past though.

Compare this with Tom Brennan, he's had a fantastic week, winning the match for Brum (Twice) on Monday and getting 13+1 last night at Lynn or Wojdylo a paid 18 point maximum! No topics with people gushing all over them with well done marra!

But having said all that... well done marra! :D
