TheReturn

I hope so, the only time he had to race because he messed the start up and he was dead, dead, dead last. Doyle is a racer, and a fantastic advert for a speedway world champion. Something that Kelvin was asked tonight was about 'racing brain' and he agreed with Pearson that Doyle and Woffy are both riders who race with their brains, and I fully agree with that. But last season Doyle wasn't racing with his brain, but with his heart and going for gaps not there, and so was involved in a few incidents and rightly excluded a few times. Since last season he's clearly learned (you could argue that's why Nicki is involved a lot, he never learned when to open the throttle and when to wait for another chance). I don't know if Doyle took a good look at last season or if someone's been advising him, but whatever full credit to him.

I am surprised Pearson didn't know what that was all about... i.e. Ricciardo in F1.

Harris gets it wrong sometimes, but he did nothing wrong there at all. Kildermand should have gone there.

Ha, I actually had to read it twice too thinking I had read that... funny how our minds work.

Well Leicester did it in the Premier League so lets hope we have a Leicester in speedway soon... you know a team like, well eer Leicester.

That was heat of moment, he was having a crap night and was interviewed about his crap night, it slipped out, natural not premediated like Tai. Try again.

But at least he rode some league matches, not just in for the play-off's.

Personally, I think the best team is the one that won over 28 matches.

I still can't believe how so focussed on fawning over Holder in that final race, Pearson twice told the viewers Holder had mad a perfect start, when Freddie was 2 or 3 bike lengths clear coming off the first bend.

Strange crash, in the respect we've seen much worse with no injuries, was it was the speed of it that caused the damage. Hopefully speedy return and he is back really mixing it with the GP next season.

Probably be allowed to bring Hancock in!

Indeed, both Tai and Freddie dropped a load of points, so if they are on form Monday that's a big swing there, and then it depends how the wolves reserves compare to Poole. Could be close.

The rules allow it, so they can. But I still believe bringing a rider in just for the play-off's whose not ridden any qualification meetings is morally wrong.

How can people on here defend Pearson as a great commentator, he is woeful, and such a Holder suck up. In that final race he is 'Holder's made a perfect start, great start for Holder when Freddie was three bike lengths clear down the back straight',

Remind me again, how is it possible Poole can bring in a world class rider whose not ridden for them all season? Farce

What did I say. PEarson and Poole fans say nothing about Holder's first heat move, but there similar incident, in which Howarth gave Ellis loads of space and Pearson is suggesting Howarth was naughty and Poole fans booing.

I know, it was not dirty, just hard but the point I was making had it been Nicki everyone would be wanting him excluded and calling him every name under the sun.

Can you imagine if that had been Nicki that had done what Holder just did at Poole? Everybody would be calling him dirty little ****

When doesn't it!!

I think I say this every season, but here goes... anyone but Poole.

Dear oh dear... you really can't see the difference? Are you telling me that Woffy's examples were not pre-meditated, rather than off the cuff slips? Don't get me wrong, I like Woffy, but I think this season he's let himself down badly and whilst sycophants defend him, there is a risk he will continue with this course of unprofessional behaviour. Out of interest, what would Woffinden have to do in order for you to condemn him? What about one of the Ward off track antics that ended up with him in court, would you still be defending him then?

They used to say the same about Gollob, I was at Hackney the night he was punched because one Aussie felt he had ridden too hard. Fair enough, but to be honest I was being polite. I would prefer to use other words to describe Mr Ward, and they would get me banned

Why? Didn't set the world alight, and doesn't have Ford choosing which aussies to ride for him. I can't comment if he is a great manager, but whenever I see him interviewed on TV about a race incident, he talks utter tripe.

Hardly, two different things. Lung's was in the heat of the moment, natural and lets not forget his first language is not English. Woffy's was deliberate and unnecessary. You're bit of a Woffy sycophant aren't you Chris?

Of course, but can you imagine the outcry if Nicki had refused to help raise funds for Darcy by not agreeing to sell his race suit? Darcy was a prat before his accident and it seems is still a prat.
