No Chris Holder In 2014 In British League.


Recommended Posts

Can't blame Noddy for giving the EL a miss next year.

 

He has suffered serious injury, is not wanted by Poole due to the further weakening of the EL and would surely be better off taking on fewer meetings in the bigger paying Polish & Swedish leagues - although they are far more competitive...

 

On the plus side, I won't miss his juvenile 'Fukn Stoked', 'Fukn Bummed' and 'Fukn Pumped' comments and think Fast Freddie is a far bigger loss to English speedway..

Have to disagree on the last point - I know a lot of people who would want to see a world champion and Chris was very deserving. Freddie hasn't ever looked like equalling that status and I'm afraid his boat has sailed. Holder every time for me!

Very dismissive of Freddie. He still has time on his side and is genuine World Class. His time is still to come IMHO.

World class? How did he qualify for next year's SGP series? IMHO his boat has sailed and he will never be world champion - he might win the odd SGP but will probably struggle to finish in top 8 - unless he does a PUK/Tai...

Of course he is World class. Always buzzing around the top 8 and is often in the top 8 right till the latter stages.

Freddie has every chance to turn it around (and do a PUK) and its plainly odd to suggest otherwise.

Oddly his best year in the GP`s was when he had his worst year with Wolves.

IMHO he will struggle without the EL next year. But time will tell.

Freddie for me Steve, he has done it over the long term whilst Chris has a way to go to match that..

 

Doesn't really matter though, both are top riders (and sadly both will be missing next year)..

Would have to say Holder is the one to have done it, he is the one with a World Championship win. Freddie will never win it in a month of Sunday's imo..

Is that in Freddie's World? Wayne's World? or Wally World? Flattered to deceive too often for me. Great servant of the EL though!! :t:

 

 

Well if memory serves me right, wasn't this the same poster who proudly proclaimed that David Howe was a nailed on World Champion in waiting!

And holloway road is miles away from highbury I suppose!

Affluent area!! Didnt realise holloway road was in kensington!!

 

I think you'll find Islington is affluent. This isn't the place for carrying this on, but the point was simply that foreverblue or whatever it's name is, was carrying on like a know all, when in truth, they actually knew squat.

Having watched him from his early days there were many that thought he may go to the top of the sport. Never made the top table, as most don't. Some because of ability and many for financial constraints. Sorry if my opinion upset you.
