Cook, Vissing and Kennett banned.

Recommended Posts

Can't see the point in Louis appealing the decesion.  Eddie misses 1 match for the Witches this week and the weather not looking good....:blink:

Cook 

Vissing 

Kennet

They should all receive a ban for their championship club only, if they are banned from riding for their premiership club then might as well bang that final nail in the coffin of this absolute ridiculous sport

Perhaps doubling up is the real problem, not the ban. What do you think?

Cook just idling back to the pits, after the wind ups. Flag man walks in front of his bike - receives a shoulder barge. Should have have been the end of it, both in the wrong. Until Dugard’s get involved, not unusual. 

Very tame compared to a blind vicious assault.

I think that any ban should only apply to the league that the offence occurred in.

I dont see he has a leg to stand on even though he will see it as defending a family member being attacked

Agree. And Dugard was banned from the rest of that meeting only and fined £250. And it was live on TV.

But because the ref dished out a punishment nothing else could be done afterwards

Suspending these riders only causes more problems than are solved. Fines have to be the right way of dealing with it, together with appropriate levels of punishment for their clubs. To begin with, fine the riders their earnings from that match, then a percentage from a set number of matches from now onwards.

Can’t recall, or find what the ban was - however, I remember the incident well. 

Apologies again for the other night. Was only interested in talking Speedway.

Dugard broke some bones in the crash.     Looked a tame accident and no reason to hit Andersson.

Punishment should be a fine unless the club is also at fault.   Glasgow and maybe Kings Lynn will ride without Cook which may take numbers off the gate.   Weakened teams are no good for the fans or the clubs.    Why punish innocent parties when they could fine the rider a fixed sum.   Its going to rain this week which means a ban may also be worthless.

No surprise Cookie comes back the day of the GP Challenge.

Ed wasn't part of the original incident, instead he ran 30 yards towards it, then started scrapping. It was nowt to do with him. I can't see how Louis or anyone else can argue against his actions that lead to the ban.

 

 

Pathetic comment from Louis. He is equally as guilty as Cook by sprinting over to act like a thug. No different to Cook.

Assuming the ban only affects UK he can ride abroad?
