A shoulder barge doesnt result in your head flying forwards in that manner. Try it, preferably film it and do it very close to a block wall. Attempting a shoulder barge whilst both hands are on the bikes handlebars is laughable. He went in with his head there are no two ways about it, its clear to see on the video! Are you for real? Whilst not condoning any of Cooks actions that is not a headbutt...watch Dugard on Vissing.............you are in a small minority who actually think thats a headbutt Edited August 12, 2019 by Gavan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You have to be very deluded to think otherwise. I guess mine and the vast majority on here have a different idea of a headbutt to you then Shoulder barge someone and your head goes with you.....with a headbutt your shoulders hardly move I cant stand Craig Cook....petulant , whiny brat as proved at Foxhall many times.........but he didnt headbutt the marshall.......he is banned for swinging punches after Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You do not go in head first if you shoulder barge someone and thats a fact... Cooks head goes in first whilst both hands are on the handlebars and you and others genuinely think its a shoulder barge! Lol! Watch the video ffs and pay attention to it properly . Cook trys headbutting the flag marshall, looks absolutely foolish as he misses and is then set upon by other riders and the like and a brawl happened.
