You think that is funny i suppose.

Haha!

I think he may have beencalled worse!Middlo will never be sacked at Poole, he has his faults but we love him, the Middleditch family have been a part of Poole speedway since before i was born and iam pretty old.

But he may have refused to ride!

That is because there is no i in team.

Well i think he hasnt the confidence anymore at any track

He looked confident riding against his brother

To my mind which as you seem to point out isnt very big, i would there is more to it than meets the eye,had Holder fallen out with Chapman prior to the meeting? The strange part was that CH raced against his brother pasing and re passing race of the night then refused to ride in heat 13.

I never find you difficult to understand!!It wasnt anything like that meeting. If you had been there you would know that. There was no rain to speak of a few showers but they were after the refusal to ride. Dont you think Hans would have told Middlo where to go if he thought it was unsafe. He had earlier fell too and still came out for his next ride. Jack gave it his all in every race, even after remedial work he raced wheel to wheel passing with his brother and then Chris Holder decides he doesnt want to race again.

Luck or planning? How do you know the track was dangerous? The track wasnt perfect but not dangerous, do you think riders like Hans and KK would ride a dangerous track, nobody forced them to ride. Middlo an experienced ex rider wouldnt asked them to ride if he thought it was too dangerous.

The ban has come from the SCB hasnt it Buster doesnt control that does he?

So his best mate CH is also a rubbish rider

Well i cant remember a more inept emarassment than last nights debacle, hope we dont make the play offs now, Swindons to lose im off to the bookies. Even scottyfan couldnt have predicted as bad a result as this!

And KK i would say he is pretty experienced too and by the way the track wsn't dangerous.

To be honest if he continues this years form he could be a bad signing anyway.

Just get them at the gate

I dont know thats why i asked . Yeah your probably right so we could have a temporary rider until he is available

Does this mean as he cant sign for anyone at the start of the season he wont be able to get a visa?

No need to double up if there is only one league.

The other point is i suspect Middlo may have thought with Holder refusing to ride it was an opportunity to get some unexpected points and told all the Poole boys to get on with it.

The track wasnt perfect to start with, track prep was not as good as usual that is clear, i think they have been trying a different shale which may be causing some issues. I remember going to Kings Lynn when Waggy was in charge and it was so deep only Crump to get round everyone else was falling off so they took the top layer off and it was ok, it was nowhere near that bad on the evening in question, Holder has said in recent times how scary speedway, i believe he said recently where there was a sun break, speedway is scary enough without sun in your eyes which to me means he is scared of racing and if the track isnt perfect he finds it too scary.The track was not perfect but it was raceable and most riders were coping except Chris Holder who stopped in his race which i think most thought was a bike issue but wasnt. So he was refusing to ride anymore at that point.

That could happen here too, it is not inconceiveable that the premiership and championship become one.

Holder was rightly banned and rightlysacked, riders have to be accountable for their actions. He has dropped his level so far now i dont think Poole should have him back. He isnt anywhere near the rider he was and if he refuses to ride at Poole for the track being too scary what then. He is meant to be a professional sportsman, it is about time he acted like one.

Nah we will stuff Belle Vue they're rubbish!
