We seem to be more entertaining away from home judging by the praise given to the performances.TJ and Mellgrens injury problems are going to impact our season the way the Team was built IMO.

Not good enough on the night is all that matters,this has always been the case.

dont see his name in the NJL MATCH !!

Lets be honest if the away team reserves make the gate they don't even get past most weeks never mind decent riders.

what about the mist?

While I agree he did stay down to get the race stoppedI don't agree that he "dropped off" he was all over the place on the track and was heading for the burger van when he fell!

This is a very complex sport you know! Not everybody is allowed to cheat!

They did say he was a stop gap signing ,they are waiting for Davey to get aBritish passport

The Colts race night is not a Friday normally maybe the reason ?

Belle Vue had signed him beforeEdinburgh.

He may be new to speedway but he knows how to ride a motorcycle definitely one for the future.He can actually get round Armadale! Impressive.

Up against it but have seen better riders than him struggle for years at Armadale think he will improve.Ref let him have a flyer in ht 14 rerun to boost his confidence .Really like Riss he has talent this could be a big year for him and is the main reason the Monarchs have seen off the oppo at that Dale so far this year.IMO

Decent meeting some good dices,2 observations ,the ref wasn't going to give Worrall a fast start,and Richard Lawson doesn't give a stuff for his team mates as Luna and Worrall.

I think it highlights how far the standard has drop in British Speedway ,whatever we think of Craig's situation,he states in SS that he is not up to speed in Poland,these engine tuners must be rubbing their hands.

Typical BSPA ,they still don't know what is in the "best interests of the sport" nothing changes!

Given your connection with the Club could you not just correct the Poster if he has misunderstood the Newsletter .

Good choices should be a good match.

I ha I have no complaints regarding him coming back to PL,all I saying is it was his choice,he felt he could not go any further in PL terms,but now he needs money so PL is his easy option,as nobody else wants him abroad.Like I said in another post there are plenty riders of Cooks standard abroad.

Maybe so,but it was his decision to give Britain a miss.!

Certainly ups the average age of the Team we will have the most expierianced Team in the League!!!!!!!

It is ,income v expenditure is what it is all about .

It is interesting that Brummies failed at EL and PL level in recent seasons and appear to have found NL attracts there best crowds.Think that tells you something regarding watching the same riders in your Team most weeks.IMO. Plus not paying overrated foreign rider more money that what they are worth.

They may be cheaper,chasing big money is a dodgy business.He was trying to be ambitious though.IMO you don't have to ride abroad to be a GP rider ,I suppose riding against the top men might help though.There are plenty "Craig Cooks" in the sport regarding talent.

I agree.

I have similar thoughts on a lot of your points,unfortunately we all know it is never going to happen.
