Workington Comets slumped to defeat away to Edinburgh Monarchs in the League Cup. Former Comet Craig Cook was in scintillating form as he scored 14 points from five rides to give the Monarchs a 55-38 victory. <\/p>\n
Craig Cook: Scored 14 points from five rides <\/p>\n
The result means that Comets came away with no points and it leaves Monarchs top of the Border Division with nine points from their three League Cup matches. <\/p>\n
Comets team manager Tony Jackson said: I am disappointed. Its the same old story in Edinburgh we just dont seem to do it. A few things went wrong on the night that changed the match. <\/p>\n
There were two harsh refereeing decisions when Rene Bach was excluded in heat nine and Mason Campton was excluded in heat 11. I thought they were unfairly excluded. <\/p>\n
We only won three races at the end of the day and you cant do anything only winning three races. <\/p>\n
We didnt get the rub of the green. We are not going to get down about it. I am sure we will make amends on Saturday night. <\/p>\n
Comets started the evening a rider down with reserve Chris Mills arriving late following an arduous journey from his home in Essex. <\/p>\n
He arrived 40 minutes after the match had started. His van broke down and he got stuck in traffic on his way to Edinburgh. <\/p>\n
