I think Doyle deserves to be reassessed at 8 also for his outstanding service to British Speedway. 2 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MP78 17 Posted November 18, 2023 Only a general feeling, but as others have said, I think the idea of the only switch being Brennan for Riss will likely be right. Personally I think King’s form at the end of the season is as good as he will get moving forward and he would likely benefit from a new challenge at Birmingham for example… if that were the case (and I’d be surprised if it was) then I’d go Emil, Doyle, 2 out of ‘Brennan, Jakobsen, Ellis’, then Rew, Wojdylo and either Dan T or Jason Edwards.

TTT 1,229 Posted November 18, 2023 Off topic but thanks go out to Richie Hawkins for turning up to the Save Peterborough Speedway protest today. Hopefully Panthers fans will repay the compliment by cheering on Hawkins' Witches next season. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hackney 89 Posted November 18, 2023 Slightly off topic but Jason Doyle has never been my most favourite rider as I have always considered him to be a bit arrogant and mardy, but having met him and listened to him speak at the speedway show today he came across as approachable, humerous and honest and a genuine nice guy. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

People can be two separate personalities inside and outside of work I guess it can be the same with speedway riders during and not during speedway meetings...

I never had any opinion of him until Reading ran MSDL at Swindon in 2019, Jason made a point of finding the team managers and handing over a box of used parts to distribute amongst our riders. That makes him a decent bloke in my book! 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bruno 1,790 Posted November 18, 2023 Love Doyle's humour/sarcasm ever since in an interview he did after winning a gp he said it was good to have 3 Aussie's on the podium. One was Woffy lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Teromaafan 586 Posted November 18, 2023 Doyle has always been loyal to British Speedway and his personality doesn’t come into it for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lets be clear most clubs would love a rider of Dolyes abilities and never give up attitude in their team - there are certain riders (like footballers) that wind you up a bit when they ride against your side but you'd have them in your team in a heartbeat!
