Cook had said the deal had to be right for him, so there's a chance. Basically just find any rider on 5.01 or above! As in travel wise. He doesn't want to travel far to potentially be out of pocket. So only really leaves BV imo. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scoobydoo 2,254 Posted June 27, 2023 (edited) Looking at the moment that Wolves have the better Worrall and Cook Cook's to scalextric round the showground , thought he would be more of a racer chasing the dirt but seems not most likely to set in his Wimborne Rd ways Worrall was gating then just moving out of the way almost as if he was scared to mix it on the 1/2 bend Edited June 27, 2023 by scoobydoo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cinderfella 865 Posted June 27, 2023 (edited) SCB sure know how to encourage overseas riders to come race in Britain don't they? Laguna suffered from food poisoning, certified by a doctor, and gets a 7 day ban as its a non speedway related illness/injury. Yet another own goal scored by the biggest shower of idiots that call themselves management. Count your days till you're all out of a job because the way speedway is being mis-managef the only thing certain is speedway is on its last lap. (And I'm not even a Peterborough fan) PS if you want to make sensible and balanced ruling then I suggest any rider who withdraws from a meeting should not be permitted to ride for 7 days .

There were two occasions last week where riders withdrew after falls in their first race then both turned out the next night. Strangely enough the fall occurred in CL meetings and the next day appearances were in the PL. Too much of a coincidence and it's not the first time that has happened.

Purplepanthernotred 155 Posted June 28, 2023 I think it’s obvious that they aren’t going to make any changes now. How on earth Hans and worrall are still holding a job down is beyond me, you’ve worrall who can gate but then goes straight too the outside line and just goes backwards and then you’ve someone with the experience of Hans who is way past it, but seemingly unwilling too admit/accept that and call time on his career. Vadim is a fantastic addition and an exciting watch. Basso doesn’t seem overly thst bothered like he use too but still trying, jenkins continues to give his all. And Ben cook is still on the pace but realistically shouldn’t be expected to score loads when riding at 2, Hans is putting more pressure on other riders due to how bad he’s actually got. Really don’t hold out any hope for any further changes Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chrismorton 332 Posted June 28, 2023 (edited) MT said on Facebook last week that there would be at least one more signing very soon so I don't know what's happening with that...it's too late now though tbh the season has gone..
