Going against the obvious grain here but I enjoy his commentaries because it is different, full of passion and he is human after all.
P.E racing would be not be the same without him. Long live Bumpy (Allan) and his passion for P.E racing.

Schoeman top class - I recall a commentary where he called home Louis Pride: RACE OVER! And then: OH NO.... Another horse got up on the line 
Schoeman to call the July in 2012!

Schoeman to call the July in 2012!

you cannot be serious - The punters (I know you do care about them and i respect you for that ) and racing deserve better - This poor service would not be tolerated in rugby or soccer so why should punters be shafted for sentiment? PE racing is no longer "farm racing" and he has been poor for 20 years - He is not humorous or fun but simply poor at his job. Passion is one thing but in a industry where the correct resullt is paramount there is no room for passengers - Smiley Moosa never made half as many mistakes as this guy - When Shan Ip was calling Phumelela eventually got rid of him - Why do they not use Mr Shaw to call PE and Kim - He cannot do worse

He's had more chances than anybody else in racing!!
If a new caller started today and was given a probationary period of 3 months would he be given the job if he performed as poorly as Schoeman?
Something is seriously wrong with the industry when below average work is tolerated. This guy is not a tote teller or security guard but the voice of TWO Racing districts. Passion should not be confused with skill(or lack of it) .

Thought it was fear of Friday the 13 th? Sure Sly added frikka just to say "bloody" or similar? But never sure with Sly?
