Thing is Robert72, you've never denied not being Rob Homer, so obviously you're happy to be dragging someone else's identity through the mud, all to make people think you were really a speedway rider. That's looney tune!

Indeed, I understand where you're coming from, sorry about that. It's like those people who continue to post links to openly available information thinking it's an important contribution to the forum. Wouldn't be so bad but the links are generally off topic and or completely irrelevant!

You don't want your own thread too then?

Maybe it shoud have it's own thread...... Is Gustix Spartacus?

Can't you find anything on Wiki or Google?

Why £10k when you only had a bet of £150 with 'a friend' about this thread which apparently also went to a worthy charity.

No, John 'Mavis' Davis started it. Dyed blonde hair with roots, baring his chest in the press whenever he got the chance and a penchant for pink! He had a bit of a bad boy image too. I remember him physically cutting the tapes after getting excluded from a race at an open meeting at Smallmead in the early 80's. Had a massive effect on me, ever since that day if I've ever had a pair of scissors in my hand, I've normally ended up snipping something, and to this day I still have pink items of clothing in my wardrobe. Actually, Crump, Pedersen and Woffinden are very similar in many aspects, temperement wise Woffinden is probably the calmest and levelled of all of them at corresponding ages. But the most common dominator is that they're all winners, so whatever people think their characteristics have or had no ill effects on their careers.

in the past 10 years, who would be your ideal speedway role module Robert?

Language/vocabulary difficulties can be a secondary affect. Anyway, did I say dyslexia? I meant tourettes!

It's not a case for all that they chose not to learn or use words properly. There's thousands of people with dyslexia (diagnosed or not) who have problems learning/reading words, which have a knock on affect with their vocabulary. It's been widely reported that Woffinden struggled at school, I wouldn't be surprised if he too was dyslexic.

I pressume with the Gold, Silver & Bronze packages, subs will be different for each then. As it's WSRA, do they support riders globally or just UK based ones?

Never heard of an ex-rider called Robert Jackson - strange that! There was an article in the star last week about WRSA implementing an initiative that gives ex riders the choice of 3 types of membership - Gold, Silver & Bronze. Gold members will be permitted to attend speedway meetings free of charge if accompanied by a paying adult, and will also make themselves available for publicity purposes whilst at the meeting. Just need to have ridden in 25 league meetings to qualify for membership which seems fair enough. Doesn't say what the cost of the membership is, or where any funds raised with go though.

He had an accident years and years ago which left him with no feeling on one side of his face, as far as I can remember he's always looked and sounded a bit 'dopey'. because of it. Great 'kin post!

The whole situation has an unfortunate feel of deja vu doesn't it R&R!

Just waiting for GI to come up with their next plan.... They've found an interested partner and are going to scrap the plans for just a stadium and submit new plans for a 'racino'. They'll probably use the drawings they had knocked up for Reading.

Know how keen you are on pointing out spelling, grammar & punctuation errors, so shouldn't that read 'rather'

I'll put myself forward then. I am a well known British Speedway rider, have even got Justin Elkins email address to prove it. I have experience at Ben Fund meetings, dontate by DD to charities each month, I;m very well advised, only swear when in the company of men aged between 18-40, have been able to trace my British heritage back to the 1500's, and most importantly of all, have a union jack rug in my lounge. Just waiting on Rosco's call now.

I'd give up with Robert72 if I was you, his obsession with Woffinden is all a bit too weird, I could possibly understand it if he was a teenage girl or something, but just too odd for a so called adult. I suppoose he could actually be a teenage girl though? After all, we only have his word for him being a 'superstar' junior speedway rider who in his own words, has lined up against world champions and has his own access to the current WC. There's never been anything to substantiate these claims and when you think about it, it does sound like a story a child or adulescent trying to impress would come out with.

He may, but you can't. There's been so many reasonable questions directed at you, or your opinion asked on spin off topics from all things Woffinden, and I've yet to see you respond to one. Your weird obsession just continues.

No, I'm saying it's no big deal for the majority of people. JK show? I guess that's some veiled insult - again water off a ducks back. The sport hasn't been taken seriously by the media for decades, but if anything Woffinden, because he is different has created more media attention for the sport. Can't see any of it has been bad either. If Woffinden doesn't do anything for British Speedway, what are your views on the impact far more serious scandals involving what you'd define as speedway role modules had on the sport, peoples perception of it? Michael Lee and his drug dealing Simon Wigg and his match fixing Gary Havelock bringing the sport into disrepute by drug taking, urinating in public Can't say i've ever heard, read or seen anything about young impressionable people becoming criminals, cheats or developing anti social behaviour because they were swayed by their speedway idols. He started off in a suit, surely that impressed you? Tattoos, piecing etc. aren't anyting edgy, dangerous or cool. They're very mainstream in this century.

No, I don't know of any. I don't know of anyone who was at Cardiff who hadn't heard that word before, I guess not many were offended as the fans raised the roof on his request. Your obsession with all things relating to Tai Woffinden is an embarrassment, and quite frankly a bit weird for a grown man.

How many kids got up this morning shouting 'make some 'kin noise" then?

Still opinions and not facts. And, yes, I'm fine with what Tai said yesterday I don't get upset or offended everytime I hear an expletive, they're just a words afterall and Tai's comment yesterday wasn't said with any malice.

In your opinion, or have I missed a BSPA/SCB statement confirming that as a fact?

Good greif, this thread is like a meeting between Dads Army and the WI. It was a word, a single seven letter word, that whether you like it or not is used frequently and in lots of cases naturallyl in normal day life. Think what you like, but your kids will hear it, many will use it amongst their peers. I bet you were more shocked than they were, if they even registered hearing it at all!
