What has Cook got away with.

Dont worry us morons will find something to bleat about next week the week after and any other week you want to name. Maybe we could bleat about posters who come onto threads and complain about other posters bleating.

Bit of drizzly rain around this morning but the forecast for today looks pretty good. http://www.bbc.co.uk/weather/2655819 Berwick will use Jack Parkinson Blackburn as their guest for Lee Payne, while Peterborough are yet to confirm their guest for the No7 position.

Pretty standard for Sedgeman that though.

Maybe he did know what was coming, or maybe as others have mentioned he wasn't to bothered either way. And no and no.

Update from Lewis Bridger on his injury, taken from his Twitter page. Update on my injury I've managed to start some Strength and Conditioning but I'm no where close to where I need to be to return racing 1/2

I was at Peterborough last Sunday and thought the altercation was between Cook and another riders mechanic, from what I saw I`d be surprised if Cook received any ban for what looked no more than, as you say, handbags. Happens all the time, Robert Lambert didn't take his place in the Newcastle team at the 4`s last Sunday yet rode for Kings Lynn in their meeting against Somerset last Monday.

Pre SWC Cook looked the real deal, British Champ and winning two qualifiers on his road to the GP Challenge. Since then his form and confidence has just about deserted him, maybe its nerves, maybe it mechanical, maybe he is putting to much pressure on himself, whatever it is he needs to get back to his form he has earlier in the season. When he qualified for the GP Challenge I genuinely thought he had a chance of getting to next years SGP, now I dont see him finishing anywhere near a qualifying spot.

No more tittering at Poole's expense please people, this is serious.

As with most weeks you will find out the starting teams when you pick up your programme. Guest for Payne ?.

Don't think there's much fear of Holder walking away with nothing, at the end of the day Holder deserves his ban. I wonder if he will be the only Holder to be banned.

That's a different argument, and some will agree with you, however there will never be just one league over here. Two would be better IMO.

No it doesn't, trying to accommodate the big name riders has probably contributed to the mess we have now. Regular night racing with regularly seven man teams is much more important than seeing the big name riders IMO.

Aussies stop whining, you obviously haven't been over on Twitter this afternoon.

Does the punishment fit the crime, seems to me that Holder is carrying the can for other riders who were probably just as keen not to ride.

Giving some of his performances with Torun this season that kind of money wont be there next season.

Will Holder jnr be there or will the Peterborough promotion have a few extra quid in the bank but no Holder at Berwick, he is already missing at Newcastle the night after.

Not Hancock`s biggest fan but IMO if he makes it known he will continue at SGP level then he will get a wild card pick.

http://peterboroughpanthers.co/news.php?extend.3160.2 Confirmed here that Holder will miss the meetings at Newcastle and Scunthorpe, for which IMO Peterborough should receive no facility.

By Morris I take it you mean nick Morris, what has he done to be dragged into this, Jason Doyle for that matter. Agree with you about Holder, you could argue about the timing but Kings Lynn were quite justified in dropping him, and Batchelor come to that. Don`t know what happened with Schlein to get his latest Twitter whinge but if he doesn't want to ride in a show piece meeting for his Championship club then maybe he should just keep that between him and them.

In a word, yes.

I've heard that thirty piece's of silver is the going rate.

I thought Buster would be the right man to get speedway at least on a sure footing and start to build towards the future, I was wrong, in fact of anything its more of a shambles now than before so I don`t see Buster lasting after this years AGM. Thing is suitable people to take over and make the much needed changes aren`t exactly thick on the ground.

Maybe this meeting along with other BSPA events should be put in riders contracts at the start of the season, although some contracts to riders these days aren`t worth the paper they are written on.

Peterborough would get a guest facility should Holder miss Sunday`s meeting and get a ban, which he wont. First because Peterborough will back down and let their rider do as he wishes, and second because our governing don`t have the balls to get tough with certain riders who choose to miss one of their meetings.
