    He sounded like he wanted to root Spies as well. That commentator is the main reason why I canceled sky sports subscription.

    Jamie Whitham and Jack Burnicle are fucking awesome.

    Is that because the moment you go face down in the kitty litter, you suddenly become a dead ringer for Toseland

    Succinctly put RT, alot of these key board warriors could be right up there 'doing it' if only they could race a qwerty and sponsored by HP

    A talented, likable lad who rode with some terrible injuries in the past (like many others) but sadly cant get over this injury.

    He drives me insane, talks such a lot of shit - like he hasn't got a clue, but year in and year out, still he's there baaaaaabling away.

    I didn't like Toseland prior to meeting him - then he turned out to be really nice, but we all know what happens to Mr Nice Guy. Sad way to finish up but.

    Sad to see him retire, he looked like he was almost getting the hang of that BMW in his last couple of races too. Shame we never got to see the best of him on the WSBK Yamaha. While he might come across as a bit of a nancy boy, he certainly has had a pretty difficult time in his life. Had a tough life as a kid and then when he first got to Europe he rode in the same Castrol Honda team as Colin Edwards but rode the 600, in his first year with the team as a 17 (?) his Italian team mate was killed mustve been pretty tough to come through that.
