Yeah probably! Just the way he talks about Lynn in interviews. 

Money talks and in order to progress you need that, probably quite rightly speaks highly of Lynn as they've given him an opportunity but Lambert probably once did too

Can see him and either Belle Vue or Ipswich

At the end of the day, the very nature of this sport means that your career could come to an end in your very next meeting. 95% of riders will go where the best deal is offered and so they should. Nothing wrong with that either.

Not saying that is the case here with Cooper, he could well be in that tiny minority who put loyalty and happiness where he is, above money. If that’s the case, then fair play to him. 
 

There’ll no doubt be cases out there where riders reject a bigger contract because they’re happy and settled where they are, and have a good relationship with the owner and trust them. But the vast majority will chase the coin.

As much as it would be a lose to King's Lynn, if we can't put a super team together for 27, I want to see Cooper at Belle Vue. Develop the gating and super high speeds required for Poland.

With Lambert now just reaching the pinnacle of the sport I'd like to see Cooper make moves now. 

A repeat of the past few seasons at King's Lynn, his career will be stunted if sticks around at King's Lynn.

Same for Jody too. King's Lynn has become rather suffocating for all rider's. 

In 2027, this club (with the riders potentially available) need to take a risk and be "ALL IN".

Spoken like a true Belle Vue fan.

So a lynn fan telling rider to leave .

For the better of a rider's career if the club can't deliver. What's wrong with that??

I much rather be honest than biased.

King's Lynn is a suffocating club

People have been saying that for years. I don't think it would do the 2 young guns any harm to give us another year.

It should be all pending on the other 4 or 5 riders.

These 2 need to be around a team with a winning mentality, that being riders, management and owners. 

Another set up like the last few seasons at King's Lynn can do more damage than good for their futures.

Just like Doyle said he wouldn’t ride for anyone else in the uk.

ultimately money & the ability to win things win out 

You’re right about the money but let’s not kid ourselves about a rider’s desire to win anything!

Just ask them the score halfway through a play off final...😁

They'll definitely know there own individual score....😉

Why should a rider know the score?

The job of rider's is to score & perform when called upon. If all the rider's just do their job, the team wins. For me, managers shouldn't even tell rider's the score either as it can alter the mindset with added pressure.

TBF although riders have mechanics, most riders are still hands on in the pits and are far too busy on their equipment than watching the other races and keeping tabs on the exact score. 
 

I don’t believe riders don’t want to win things with their club either.
