Oh I agree her definitely does …. One ex witch was very vocal in telling people how much help both Doyle and Emil were in the pits regarding set ups and overall morale ….. the same ex witch said a certain side he rode for the top boys offered no help and kept themselves to themselves and the team morale was low …. It wasn’t Belle Vue but I will let you work it out …. im sure Doyle will help Tate and cairns no end

We understand why it just makes a mockery of it all and the championship is boring because of it No issues with Doyle going Belle Vue … obviously you haven’t read the Belle Vue thread … bit thick commenting before finding facts

It’s not rocket science the Poole track is awful …. I’m an Ipswich fan and ours is no better…. Just the simple fact is Poole fans can’t accept it They always build a title side and they are happy being a big fish in a small pond and the crowd don’t care about the racing it’s only about winning Poole should be in the top league but they don’t want to be while they can just scoop up all the talent in the lower league … you would think the fans would want more after glory years they had

Do you think Doyle will have a better away average than Bewley would have done? I’m not sure

I know ….. all those years at Ipswich when he really only wanted to ride for Belle Vue He may get close to that average as he currently has no big injuries to ride his way back from like he did the last 2 seasons and now he is 40 I’m sure he will be just as good as he was in 2022 before he had those big crashes and age definitely isn’t a factor At least now you finally have a heat leader who will know his way around Foxhall and if you are up against a full witches 1-7 (which for once you was last season) then you may be able to finally win over 2 legs

I get what you are saying and Ipswich is a gaters track and not a great track I agree … let’s be fair Kurtz is a great gater probably the worlds best … he didn’t make one start that night and showed absolutely no desire to try and mix it from third or fourth …. Not that our track lends itself to good racing I thought it was a poor effort … like you say maybe an off night but I honestly think he didn’t try that hard… i understand why I’m not that foolish but there are other riders (your own Bewley being one of them) who would have still tried maybe to no avail As I said id like to see Kurtz win the title

All depends on how riders like Blodorn Cook and Tate do away from home As much as I’m happy to see Doyle over here it definitely makes Belle Vue weaker than it did with Bewley so I don’t see why all of a sudden they are favourites Sheffield or Leicester for me

I’m absolutely delighted Doyle is back in British speedway we need the big names ….. and let’s be fair it could have been much worse…. He could have gone to Sheffield which would be unforgivable lol Ipswich fans who are angry are just fools who have no idea about the sport …. All the uncertainty over the winter meant Doyle did what’s right for him ….. am I angry …. No… would I have liked him at Ipswich …. Absolutely

You have this weird fascination about me disliking Kurtz I guess reading isn’t your strong point because I said last season and this season that I wanted Kurtz to win the world title But I stand by the fact he let Belle Vue down in the play offs last season…. Yes he has a world championship to go for but he didn’t try at all for his club … something Bewley wouldn’t do and neither the new signing Doyle I also mentioned his poor score at Sheffield this season as a pointer to the fact he has to step up a bit more this season now there is no Bewley … he has to get 12 or 13 most weeks minimum If you feel that those opinions mean I dislike him then you can run with that to suit your agenda If he is leading the world championship or in with a shout around the play offs and he still bangs in big scores then fair play …

Definitely not Not yet Sort of He isn’t One million percent

Welcome back to British speedway Doyley still one of the worlds best and you know exactly what you will get 100% and more Gutted he isn’t back with us but we had so much uncertainty he had to look elsewhere I think the signing although good for speedway doesn’t help Belle Vue much at home as I think guest options would have been better wish him all the best … but not to much lol

I don’t think Kurtz struggles with pressure .. how many gp’s did he win on the bounce when he needed to…. can see him winning both

All I’m saying about Kurtz is that British speedway is a fair way down his list of priorities and sometimes that clearly shows…. Whereas someone like Bewley or Doyle when he was here would give 110% everytime And yes I’m correct when I say Kurtz has to step up especially away while Bewley is out .. he can’t be getting 8 from 5 away from home If you look back on the GP threads i wanted Kurtz to be world champion so it’s not as some people think that I don’t like him ……. Just he can be flaky at times with his riding in the UK and not his fault but as a number one he needs 12 or 13 a meeting not 8

Poole as I said in my post lol But Edinburgh know with two full 1-7 that Poole would be there for the taking at home Replace Harris score with what Dan T usually gets Replace Tate with the score Bowes usually gets Not hard to see why Edinburgh will be happy moving forward

Bowes at Edinburgh scored 0 and 2 last season his replacement got 4 tonight … i don’t care who Bowes beat at Poole the other night it’s irrelevant based on his form at Edinburgh Dan T has scored 13 13 11 and 10 at home his replacement got 5 I’m sure you aren’t Diane Abbott and your maths is pretty good so if Bowes scored 1 tonight and Dan T 12 that’s a total of 13 which is a 10 point swing based on tonight’s scores… it’s all ifs and buts and maybes but clearly if both sides has their 1-7 Poole would possibly have had a heavier defeat
