Think we have made a big mistake not keeping Craig Cook. 

Troy starting at number 1  makes us a bit vulnerable, he didn't score well in most heat 13s and 15s last season 

I hope this isn't true. Have you heard he hasn't signed? If so, I'll just have to trust the lads in charge.

Don't know which ht 13 + 15 you've been watching   but several times home and away him and Craig got some good results to turn or win meetings. Granted went missing in a couple of ht 15 but the meeting was won or we'll and truly lost by then

Think a lot of people are forgetting the impact Cook has on a meeting/ the team this guy needs to be recognised for Tate rise in his early rides. Vintage Cook riding covering every line possible team riding.

Not to mention heat 15 against Oxford at home defended every attack.

Away performances not the worst good at Plymouth, Oxford, Redcar, Edinburgh…

 

If Cook has left Workington he will be a miss for sure there is a big lack of number 1 in the league and will weaken Workington for sure in 2025

No, I don't know which heat 13s and 15s you've been watching, maybe you should check back on them? Batch definitely went missing against the big boys. I'm not saying he had a bad season, but he wasn't as good as cook. 

We have let one of the best riders in the league leave. 

Big mistake

Big mistake

100% agree on this.

Batchelor had a brilliant season and will struggle to better it. In my eyes that won’t happen. He is not a number 1
 

We need both Cook and Batchelor to lead the team.

True, personally I wouldn't have Cook anywhere near the Berwick team but let's see what happens. 

Take away the off track problems and Cook is and has been one of the best riders the league for years. The bloke is quality and bangs in points wherever he goes.

2 years at Glasgow he was untouchable and an absolute joy to watch. Not many former monarchs captains could have so much Glasgow support!

Maybe Worky didn't have a leg to stand on.

Stewart can easily sway Cook to Berwick by offering him a team place at Leicester as well.

Highly likely Craig will be back at Leicester next season so I wouldn't be surprised .

Last year Craig was listed on here nailed on signing for Redcar, now this year (in the last few hours) it's Berwick, Redcar and Plymouth.

Don't let a cryptic tweet fool you, which is proabably where someone has made it up from 👍
