If he has more than one chin he will disappoint. he is extremely talented but also lazy. When he knuckled down he was brilliant but he is probably 2-3 stone overweight for a speedway rider. imagine putting a 2stone weight on Doyle’s bike and see the difference that would make on his results !!!! i honestly thought having Doyle in the team would inspire heeps to be more professional but he obviously can’t be bothered to put the effort it. very sad as he could be so much better. Like been said he's got the talent when he takes it seriously, 2 or 3 seasons ago Heeps spent pre season training with Scotty and came into the season looking trim and fit and it showed on track but sadly it was a one off, he's still young enough to turn it around but it's up to him to be more professional about it all. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In professional sports the margins are so small, there is a reason why Laguta, woffinden etc are built like racing snakes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gavan Posted January 2, 2023 Report Share Posted January 2, 2023 Hoping we have gone for it and we have Emil though he would be box office im not sure how good he would be at Foxhall to be honest but id sooner have him then two 6 pointers , as im not sure that would drum up my interest to go more 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This seems to be the thing with many Exstraliga rider's not wanting or being allowed full UK seasons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TB1 Posted January 2, 2023 Report Share Posted January 2, 2023 I think other than Doyle the club needs a box office signing to maintain interest. Otherwise in the current economic people might just find other things to do. After all if you keep using the same tea leaves time after time eventually the brew is crap!

Arch Stanton Posted January 2, 2023 Report Share Posted January 2, 2023 Dunno Doyle is so so good to watch though we’ll certainly miss him when he’s gone that’s for sure. And Rew will generate some interest too, always good to go and see new young talent that we don’t know too much about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Falcon1983 Posted January 2, 2023 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2023 What would have generated big interest would be to convince Scott Nicholls to ride at no.2 and sign a new foreign rider on an 8 or someone like Chris Holder Scott would bring back the old feeling of local riders riding for the club again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hume’s Foxhall average was some 1.6 more than away. However, I hadn’t realised that Hume was stronger in the Champ, which is fascinating. To me, Hume never really looks in control, whereas Mountain seems more complete. Edited January 2, 2023 by Roger Jacobs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very little t9 choose between them, I'd be happy to have either of them in any team I supported. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Falcon1983 Posted January 2, 2023 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2023 Out of Hume and Mountain I'd take Hume as even tho he looks reckless its great to watch, he scores quite well at home and seems like a good character who will learn even more from the likes of Doyle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arch Stanton Posted January 2, 2023 Report Share Posted January 2, 2023 You can probably rule Mountain out cos I’d forgotten about his stint with us as someone else pointed out, he just couldn’t get round Foxhall and was axed mid season if my memory is correct.

This seems to be the thing with many Exstraliga rider's not wanting or being allowed full UK seasons. It is possibly trying to persuade the FIM to allow him to ride here. Arguments in his favour will be put forward such as having Polish citizenship (his wife is Polish) and residing in Poland since 2009. Whether this is enough remains to be seen.

Yeah i mentioned it previously, he also didn't score that well when he rode at Foxhall this season with Sheffield, 0 from 3 rides and 3 from 3 rides looking at the scores from this season just gone, he might score better then Hume away from home on certain tracks but probably not round Foxhall.

If we signed a 3 pointer we’d have over 9 left for a heatleader, we’re not signing a 9+ pointer. Baldyman has listed some good talent who would come in on a 4, on the basis of signing Sayfutdinov on an 8 point average. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
