I seem to remember a few years back when he was possibly in the gp's he had or was going to get a really good sponsor and with the numbers quoted for with the greatest respect a rider of his level you could see how the top 20-30 riders must be earning really good money. I don't begrudge them a penny of it given how dangerous the sport is but the numbers in Speedway terms for Cookie for one company were impressive if true.

Nothing lasts forever, appreciate everything he did for us. No way CC will be on a sign on deal, he'll be strictly paid per point if Edinburgh have any sense. Dont turn up, dont get paid. Its a stunner though quite possibly keeping the position occupied until another move mid season. 

His boss is a living legend 🤣

None he hates the track hence why he chooses not to ride in the British Final anymore 

I think Michael Long may have ridden the odd meeting around 1988 (a few years after Alan Mason). Not sure if he was in the assessed 1-7 though.

This is how I have the side in 'Confirmed Signings', does it look right, especially Mitch McDiarmid? ________________   Northampton Foxes:   1. Tobiasz Musielak 8.08 2. Nick Morris 5.67 3.
