Chris Holder ! :- Friend Or Foe


Recommended Posts

If he is suffering from depression then he should seek the appropriate treatment ( if he isn't ). I also know what I am talking about having suffered for 25 years with it ( off and on ). If he has severe depression any medication prescribed would likely rule out motorsports. It certainly affects your judgement and decision making ( on or off a bike ).

With another postponement at the AFA tonight, perhaps Mr Holder should have been banned for a set number of fixtures rather than days?

Agree with that but I honestly don't think having Holder back in rearranged matches will have crossed Busters mind ;)

Honesty time, it's personal, no jokes, cards on the table time

 

I think it's time for Chris to be honest with himself & the public and admit with events of the last few years he's scared.

Frightened to get thing a little bit wrong.

I honestly think Chris is trying his hardest to kid himself into thinking the issues are elsewhere.

I wasn't gonna say anything because it's personal to me but I can see it plain as day.

Looking into his eyes and body language in the pits at King's Lynn and on TV, like myself he is 100% suffering from (severe) depression & like I was, in complete denial.

Thing's got dangerously close for me & I do genuinely worry for him.

If anyone who reads this forum who knows Chris well enough to talk to him on a personal level should mention this to him asap.

I too would be willing to talk to him about it if he so wishes (in private).

 

He may well already be being treated for depression, if so, although very personal, once you let it out a tonne of weight does lift.

It doesn't end there but helps.

Chris, please talk to someone or someone please talk to him.

Heartfelt,honest and possibly correct. I hope he can find the correct path.

we all have choices in life, if Chis or any other rider believe that the conditions are dangerous then that is their decision, just because other choose to ride doesn't mean its not dangerous.

A rider receiving a 28 day ban for believing the track is dangerous is 100% wrong, start applying the same penalty to promoters who prepare dangerous tracks, but we know that isn't going to happen because the people making the rules are the promoters!....vicious circle anyone?
