You've replaced a number one with a 2nd/3rd heatleader at best 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When most top riders are committed to being elsewhere or want more money than comets could afford 🤔🤔 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although didn’t he keep kildemand and Jeppesen out of the number 1 berth at Berwick last season? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Mr Bee Posted June 17 Popular Post Report Share Posted June 17 1 hour ago, Midget said: Replacing a rider of Craig Cooks calibre with Drew Kemp. Oh dear, season is a right off I completely disagree. If anything, signing Drew Kemp brings in a far better calibre of rider for where the Comets are at right now. For a start, Kemp doesn't come with a history of not turning up or pulling out at the eleventh hour. Cook has had chance after chance at various tracks, and the unpredictability just drains a team. Workington are completely correct in wanting to give the paying public a reliable, committed 1-to-7 on the track each week. Kemp works hard, and he puts the laps in. Reliability and commitment is far better than sporadic talent in a team sport. This is definitely not a write-off. 15 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They both had 8pt+av last last except Kemp rode in all the fixtures and Cook threw in the Towel after 8 matches.Kemp is a decent replacement and will turn up every week. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kemp isn’t a bad signing all things considered but won’t win you the league…goes missing when the pressure is on 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allthegearbutnaeidea Posted June 17 Report Share Posted June 17 Clear to see these Comics don’t deserve a rider like Drew Kemp. Topped Jeppesen, Morris and Kildemand in the Berwick averages, always there, always giving 100% for the 2 years at Berwick, higher Prem rolling average than Howarth, Rowe, Morris, Kildemand, Jeppesen, Blodorn, Batchelor, Castagna in Premiership. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H20 Posted June 17 Report Share Posted June 17 I don't think it's Comets fans claiming Kemp is a poor signing it's others. Some comets fans just don't realise that Cook has been at fault quite a few times with his exploits away from the track but they defend him to the hilt with his mental health issues. Cook is a good rider but Workington could not continue with his commitment to not turning up and not riding. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One or two comments on a forum that barely has over 50 active users and we "don't deserve kemp". Get a grip mate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
