Cook caused it all. He is totally to blame for everything that happened. Banged to rights with over 1000 witnesses. The flag Marshall should be praised for stopping Cook before he caused more issues. Cook was a disgrace. Fact! By the way thought this was hilarious! But that is Eastbourne not Arlington! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cook is 100% wrong for setting off whilst parade was going on. The marshal is at best 50% in the wrong for the fracas. Agreed. Cook pushed the marshall away as I think most people would have done in his situation. The marshall exited the scene. at that point the incident was over or at least should have been. But a host of Eastbourne people - the dugards, track staff, security guards and riders - all confronted Cook and Vissing and the fracas ensued. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There have been many Scottish footballers and managers called Jock, most notably Jock Stein and Jock Wallace. Don't forget World Sidecar Champion, the late Jock Taylor. Steve some quality names there Steve . i sort of remember Jock Taylor from the sidecars . Stein was a great manager and a true legend of Scottish football .missed the SIR off Jackie Stewart . sorry about that . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They should try taking the abuse A&E staff have to put up with In Cook's version of events - as published in last week's Star - he didn't hear anything of the presentation announcements as he had his helmet on and didn't realise the parade was still going on!!!!!! 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But a host of Eastbourne people - the dugards, track staff, security guards and riders - all confronted Cook and Vissing and the fracas ensued. Exactly. Some people are so hung on the fact the Cook started it by pushing off from the presentations they seem to be excusing any other behaviour after that. 3 people got punished, rightly so. However Eastbourne got off lightly and there statement seems to indicate they carry no blame. Such a blinkered statement, 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
