mikebv 10,292 Posted July 10, 2023 Poor from Emil... He should have got off his bike at the end of lap one, and let the Tigers come past... Then got back on it again when Doyley eventually had caught up to him... And then, whilst riding side by side with Jason, agree by pointing out to him which of the two Tiger's they would pass to win the bonus point... 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He's got a face like a slapped arse half the time and doesn't seem to like eye contact... is he the inspiration you need in the pits when the chips are down? I don't know He does come across as rude and arrogant at times. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The concern is what the state of the league will be next year If he’s interested then you have to sign him. Would hate to see him riding for someone else here. Think it’s a long shot though as he might be a bit busier next year. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
StarBoy 165 Posted July 10, 2023 1 hour ago, Mr Blobby said: Emil is different class. Pleasure watching him over here this year hopefully comes back next year. One of my all time favourite riders to watch oozes class. Didn't look great at Wroclaw yesterday. I was at that meeting. Wasn't making gates and getting passed. Very unusual for him, however the calibre of rider has to be taken into consideration. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hawkins clearly no clue what was going on in the meeting as 4 had become worse than 3. What a rider Emil is! 6 wins from 7 rides away against one of the best sides in the league Hawkins rarely looks or sounds as if he has a clue about anything. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What worries me about Tatum is he seems to barely do any research before the meeting. When the riders come on he either says they're experienced or young and says their year has been going well. A main commentator is needed to be added and Tatum can be the analyst 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
