DavyH 164 Posted October 24, 2014 Youngy, but surely you have to admit that Cookie does roll a little sometimes. In the Scunthorpe vs Edinburgh meeting earlier in the season, Cookie got away with such an outregeous roller in Heat 13 that he was able visit the bar on the first turn, buy and drink three pints, then have a play on the kiddies slide on the second turn, and still be leading up the back straight. Mind you, there are riders from all clubs who get a bit of a roller. At a recent meeting at Ippo, the Witches fans near me were getting in a right lather about Klindt & Jorgensen, while being completely oblivious to the fact that Tungate was doing exactly the same! Rob, he does that off 15m too!! All the best Rob Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
andypoll 16 Posted October 24, 2014 didnt somerset win the title by virtue of having a tac ride and the opposition never??... Sure someone did.... Scunny maybe? Sorry they might of but cant remember. if they did its not fair. The rule is a joke. Thats my opinion but other people might think its a great rule ? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jamlad 48 Posted October 24, 2014 So the Smugs could win this on the tac ride rule , what a farce !!! Surely in the playoff grand final the tac should be scrapped . Don't think 12 points is enough to take to the Glory Field , and going on tonight's performance they don't deserve it , vulnerability showed once again ..... Or maybe the track was too slick , on their second bikes, meaningless match , let the excuses begin . Go for it tomorrow Rebels, these lot are a two/three man team 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Taylorj 1,000 Posted October 24, 2014 Ah..the Queen of the Anti-Monarchs puts in an appearance once again *bows royally and tugs forelock* i didnt think it'd be long before you put in an appearance your Madgeness You do seem rather obsessed with all things Blue & Gold TJ..aye jealousy is indeed a terrible thing right enough.Deep down i think you'd like a season ticket for our humble West Lothian home wouldnt you lol? Comets trophy winning days must seem like a long time ago now right enough..or correction winning anything this decade.. apart from the pairs that is Craig Cook knew when the time was right to leave and ride for a decent team at a decent track,and in the process has proved to be far better than any Comets #1 since and any other teams #1 in the past couple of years too come to think.His record and the hard work & dedication he put's in to his speedway speaks for itself..Cookie is indeed a fantastic gater as has been pointed out,but doesnt always have to rely on that to win races.Because of his success,it's cue all the crap that gets flung Cookies way..by folk like your good self..dear dear.Oh and my eyesight is 20/20 so no need for glasses thankfully Maaaammm.I hope your support for the Bitches in the KO Cup final has the same effect on our friends from Somerset by the way You obviously misunderstand my posts , nothing to do with the blue & gold team at all , it's the same as hundreds on here , it's having to listen to you blue & gold fans , go on and on and on ..... A team can beat you and they're on here, we weren't trying , meaningless match ,etc etc. Everyone likes their team to do well but you's take it to another level .That's what really grinds on me !! 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No excuses for tonight..... Somerset beat us fair and square. Roll on tomorrow..... The league is not decided on just 1 (or even 2 or 3) performances. Our results over the season are why we are in the playoff's. Win or lose tomorrow, we will remain very proud of what our team has achieved 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nah..i understand you perfectly TJ.The match i was referring to was totally meaningless.Come back and beat us in a meaningful match and i'll heartily congratulate the Comets in a sporting manner.I've seen garbage Monarchs teams many a time and i dare say i will again,but i will not apologise for celebrating when a really special team comes along.Of course as long standing & sometimes suffering fans we're gonna make the most of it and have a few laughs along the way.A year or 2 ago we were nearly out of business so you have to enjoy while you can..win or lose.Life is short and all that pish y'know.I wish some people on here a speedy recovery from their sense of humour bypass ops.. As for the '100s' on here..couldnt give a rats really....and in other news Monarchs lost at Ye Old Oak Tree Tin of Ham Arena by 12 points tonight..congrats my West Country brothers & Sisters However..the fat lady hasnt even got her corset done up yet..you'd better bring your top game with you when you get to Armadale tomorrow..you'll need it big time..enjoy whats left of your evening.. peeps #BringItOan So the Smugs could win this on the tac ride rule , what a farce !!!
