Skidder1 7,658 Posted December 23, 2014 Unfortunately removing Milik and replacing him with Watt fits. Don't think it does!!!!!1 34.05 with Watt on 6.71 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevebrum 6,829 Posted December 23, 2014 Yeah he COULD be, but for me, chances are, he wont be. Another Bobby Miskowiak for me, a spectacular 5.00 point pole, who will go out and beat a number 1, then the next race, lose to a draft rider. Just my opinion mind. A rather sweeping opinion if you don't mind me saying! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

INCOGNITO 357 Posted December 24, 2014 Holder and Watt is clearly their main target but will Janowski or Pawlicki like to be considered as the consolation signing if Darcy is ruled out of the season. With North already signed it would leave 9.98 for the last two places which could point to a 3.00 rookie and Pawlicki or Watt or Gracjzoneck or Milik for a strong top four which with two very good reserves should be strong enough to carry one rider.

foreverblue 6,115 Posted December 24, 2014 Well it can't be Gracjzoneck, he can't double up. I hope Watt isn't the main target, i expect it will be Janowski if Ward gets a long ban. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bagpuss 10,819 Posted December 24, 2014 I thought Josh G was half Polish and therefore could double up? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So many posters on here are of the impression that Darcy will be back this year. My honest opinion is that he hasn't a hope in hell of escaping a lengthy ban. If come the New Year, when he faces the tribunal, for him to be back come March will result in just a 3 months ban, and that would be ridiculous. The minimum he could hope for is 12 months and that would take him to August 2015. Deep down Matt Ford realises this and has signed Holder to replace him. I reckon that's good business........ But all these permutations of 'will he or won't he' is just wishful thinking. My one hope, is when he eventually gets back, he does things right and becomes the rider everyone believes he can be.......He's still got time to win multiple World championships 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And no Holder was not a replacement for Darcy...........Holder wanted to come back in anyway............... Merry Christmas to one and all.............

lynnboy 254 Posted December 26, 2014 James bubba Stewart who is a top Supercross rider just got banned for a year he had to wait longer than darcy has for his trial, his was for a medicacine that had a banned substance in it. So I don't think darcy will be back in March Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lynnboy 254 Posted December 26, 2014 (edited) Matt always puts out a top team I'm sure darcy was in his plan A put I'm sure he has a good back up plan Edited December 26, 2014 by lynnboy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You can see by some of his twitter comments that he doesn't envisage coming back until later in the season at the earliest. My own opinion is that we should be planning without him and should sign riders now and shouldn't be waiting on the outcome of his hearing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
