How close is Cam to breaking in?

I think they could work in his favour in a tight finish.They stand out and may mean he gets the decision.

For the pits altercation.

Ok the I dont agree with your opinion. Kings Lynn vastly improved but still lacks the elevation of Foxhall from a viewing perspective and Peterborough is largely flat/no terracing on back straight and 3rd 4th bends from what I remember. There you go a proper answer assuming it was a genuine initial comment.

You need to change your bait - wont even catch a tiddler with the current stuff.

8+1 guesting for Berwick last night so seems ok. Shows Adam to be a quick learner - he didnt go well at Berwick first time out. That has been the case at most tracks where Adam has struggled first time and is a good sign for Adam,Ipswich and British Speedway.

6.49 so yes it would have.

as they say for the lottery - youve gotta be in it to win it.

Lets hope that you are right and something positive does come out of this. It would be great to see two superb hard but fair matches in front of two bumper crowds.

very constructive and oh so helpful. Hopefully there will be some (positive) news re Adam soon.

now needs a visit to the local library for an urgent words transfusion!

So this description of events is now pretty much as most had posted yet got shot down by Monarchs fans as biased against Cook. ie some posturing, a few words and a bit of a scuffle - silly but no big deal. Then Cook lost the plot in the room with the ref. Not quite the premeditated scam set up by big time charlies at Ipswich that was the theory put forward.

I don't necessarily agree with their comments as I haven't seen the 4s incident in order to form a definite opinion on it. They have stated their opinion and it is hardly libellous. As for the rest of it with that level of paranoia it seems that Edinburgh mental health services should be gearing up for some overtime!

I've just finished having a look at the Monarchs chatzone comments re last night. It seems the Witches management 'made scandalous almost libellous comments in the programme', we are seen as 'big time charlies' or 'spoilt little brats' who 'expect the league to bow to our demands' and most hilariously the general opinion was that 'the whole affair last night was a premeditated scam' :rofl:

Any meetings will tag onto 2012 as part of his ongoing rolloing average wont they?

Puffed up chests,big egos and fast mouths are one thing - both guilty of that and both fined I understand. What in the real world could well be considered as common assault and criminal damage are something quite different - one rider guilty and one rider banned for that

I once heckled David Norris on the parade at Eastie saying I hoped he had remembered his stabilisers after he had fallen 3 times at Foxhall 2 days earlier.He gestured back in the way that way you would have auditioned for the old Nescafe adverts! Fair play you give you take it!

And the provocation was ? Genuine question as I havent been made aware of anything that would warrant the reaction.

Perhaps the Monarchs fans can polish his van with their keys again !

Everyone smile nicely and be very polite to Mr Cook and then no one will get hurt and everyone will have a nice day Upset him and well .......

the refs have caught on to the rollers! Wink!

Its a shame that the fact the Witches have qualified for another cup final has been overshadowed by this incident. I know Barker is a rider that gets under the skin of many and is far from being a paragon of virtue but it seems Cook just lost it. Obviously there was a tense atmosphere given recent events and the importance of the match but heat 1 was largely uneventful between the pair especially as it seemed they were each doing their best to finish last! Im on the 2nd bend so the following is a description from those in the pits.At the pit gate a bit of a back log and Cook barges Ben who says wtf? and then bam a flurry of unprovocked punches follow. Serious as it is I am a bit surprised that he was thrown from the meeting.I can only assume the ref felt it would pose a significant danger if Cook continued. It did spoil the contest.

I dont think so - they didnt look like the type that could read.

Monarchs fans around Bens van at the end - stewards needed to escort him out. Lots of staring and mean looks but no words or actions. Scary stuff!! Lol
