But when Holder needed Crump he was there for him when he won the world title, a great friend as well as being a great rider.

Yes Batch has had a good season and he is not on a low average and Matt Ford will not be employing him I am sure, we have enough assets why pay loan fees. Chris Holder is on a low average for his ability but maybe that is his level now as he isn't exactly doing well in Poland either.

When Ritchie is released by Poole to accommodate Kurtz back could he join Belle Vue with a bit of dispensation!

Whatever some may think of THJ and his ability he will ride the track even if it's raining and will be fully committed, always liked him when he rode for Poole.

Hans only raced once which was a mistake and didn't ride again.

Ah mistake there could have Josh Auty.

Don't think anyone is going to watch just Kennett!!

If we had kept KK we could have had. Kurtz Hans JH THJ KK RDouglas JS

The way Holder is riding you would be better off with r/r and hope Fricke gets back before the play offs.

Sacking him was a bad decision, stuck with him until his average dropped and then sack when he could have kept him as a second string with easier races to get his confidence back.

No not sufficient if you want riders to sit and notice that maybe they can't do what they like and there will be no repercussions.

Yes and i don't blame him. It is about time someone took a stand.

Matt Ford didn't know that when he sacked him.

Not all Poole fans!

Maybe speedway is just a bit too scary for Chris Holder now, i believe he said speedway is scary enough without the sun in your eyes when there was a sun break at one of the Kings Lynn meetings. I don't think he will ever recapture his best form. Too much has happened in his life to ride to his full potential now.

i'm assuming Jack didn't bring his polish bikes!

Certainly affected Ritchie!

Yes i expect him back at Poole next season but not entirely sure i want him back, i know he is on a low average but that maybe his level now.

Hope not hes our best rider

As much as i have always liked Holder i agree with Buster's decision, he cannot expect to do what he likes, refuse to ride when he likes and expect no repercussions. The question i would like to ask him is why it was unraceable for him but the whole Poole team, including his brother, didn't refuse to race and why, even after remedial work, he raced against his brother then refused to race anymore.

We only get the Aussies because it is convenient for them, visa and live here during the season.

i'm not going tonight!

In my view the team line up looks better with the top five in alphabetical order with Worrall at 5.

He seems to be riding Chris's bikes better than Chris can!

Don't think Ritchie comes under the going to do better, I think he has done pretty well and has been our best rider more than once. If only there was a way to keep him when Brady comes back. Dispensation!
