Now some might say im barking up the wrong tree, but i wouldnt have put Bewley in ht 15. I would have put fricke in. my opinion. I think it would take a brave team manager to leave an unbeaten rider out of the nominated heat. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fromafar 10,335 Posted August 7, 2018 GP star Cook really should be cleaning up in these meetings,is he average watching?.His Continental form is poor and he won't be getting many offers IMO. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well done Kings Lynn fully deserved As for BV , some serious questions have to be asked , none more so than the dumping of Jye Etheridge ...And Fricke omission from heat 15 Not happy i agree Etheridge good round nss and yes i penciled in Fricke and Bewley for 15 big clanger Mr Lemon Cook very poor for a number one Edited August 7, 2018 by speedy bill 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

coldace 110 Posted August 7, 2018 Just seen Ht 11 from the Wolves vs. Leicester match on the SGB site. They are saying how exciting it was. If they want exciting then should put Ht 11 from last night with Fricke, Lambert and E. Riss. Outstanding! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Plus,I doubt that the supporters at Monmore got a demonstration of badminton & golf thrown in with the admission price either . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Appreciate it sounds daft leaving a guy out on a paid Max, but Tungate and Fricke gate better. Couldn't have left Fricke out after heat 11 though. I still say only 6 from Cook was the real difference in the end. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aces High 70 Posted August 7, 2018 Shouldn't Fricke be riding at number one for us? His rolling average is 8.24 and 2018 average 8.19. Craig's are 7.92 and 7.54. Doesn't the rider with the best average have to rider at number one now? Fairplay to Lambert for his average of 9.46 from 17 matches this season and deservedly winning the number one spot from Iverson. Really enjoy watching him ride. Hopefully Dan Bewley can make that kind of progression as well, he has already settled into the number three spot really well. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The official Green Sheets, http://www.speedwaygb.co.uk/files/downloads/p18_issue_22.pdf, show Craig Cook on 8.16 and Max Fricke on 8.04.

Dan had a good meeting by the looks of it, but he has not got the experience when the presure is on like that. Yes had you been winning well then it would make sense to put him in and give him that bit more experience but he's a young lad who has had a hard meeting, and you have two vastly more experienced riders who have both scored well who will have been better equiped to handle that presure. Its a hard decision, but one i would have thought Lemo would have made which could, have won you the meeting. which i have already said in another post. Fricke and Tungate. Same is if you have a guest riding for you, he scores well, but you have two of your own side who have scored equally as well, who do you put in if it came to the crunch like the other night ? Your own riders.. Now none of you will agree im very sure... My opinion. Edited August 7, 2018 by Starman2006 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
