hagonshocker 1,956 Posted August 6, 2019 Track stewards a ******* idiot!!!!! What an overreaction from a lot of Eastbourne officials and riders but not very surprising often been a clicky bunch over the years ...to accuse Cook of aiming his bike at him is total bull , a high degree of embarrassment 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeh no matter what caused it all, taking a swing at that guy who got in his face was the catalyst for the shambles that followed. 4 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Add Jon Cook into that and it’s little wonder it happened there. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Remember when Dugard ( Eastbourne)walked into the pits and gave a Lynn rider a cheap shot knocking to the ground live on TV..Think it was in 99. Did he get a ban. I don't think he did. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Icicle 896 Posted August 6, 2019 I did note the large number of Security who suddenly appeared and waded in willynilly; as if looking for a battle. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Did he get a ban. I don't think he did. Think he swerved the ban as he was kicked out of the meeting so they deemed that as the punishment. Was a long time ago so i may be wrong but pretty sure that was it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Baldyman 6,243 Posted August 6, 2019 I think a few things like that happening more often would actually do the sport a favour. A good old punch up never done ice hockey any harm 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
