Should Tai Woffinden Ride For Team Gb ?
robert72 replied to robert72's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
The Polish reports reveal that Crump deal is for about £620,000 for the new season. It was negotiated by Crump and it can be extremely beneficial to him, provided he can score what is expected of him and he rides in as many matches as he did in 2010. Crump's signature on the contract is reportedly worth around £170,000 and every time he turns up for a league match he is to be guaranteed �3,000. If he rides in 20 Polish meetings that makes a round sum of £60,000 for the new season. The rest is to be earned on the track. For each point scored he will get £1,700 If he scores as many points as he did in 2010 he will take home about £390,000. Polish journalist Roman Chyla says: 'Now add all the above mentioned figures and you will end up with a very fairytale contract. Is it any wonder that Crump and Gollob don't race in Britian?' And you were saying ? Bikes,equipment ect at tai level will be sponsored,monster sponsorship would cover his staff and then his Swedish pay. Tai is minted and I am pleased for him. -

I guess if you look for it you would find that gollob was on over a million a season some 7 plus years ago riding in Poland, so I guess it's about the same for tai. Your wrong tai is not doing what's best for British speedway he is doing what's best for him as his interests for the good of British speedway is long gone. Any details about the training schools ? -

So in theory we could demand more from tai in this country and take his licence away if he didn't do what's best for British speedway. So in fact British speedway could of forced tai to ride in the British final but chose not too. -

So what about Wozniak's Leicester contract for 2016 so Explain that one as he signed a CONTRACT to race for the lions, why isn't he fulfilling his contract ? Your insults are boring everyone -

Yes with the money I expect him to be on but then it was British speedway that helped him to get to that point in Poland and he couldn't care less about the British final or the British fans. Contracts and agreements can mean very little in speedway, Leicester rider Wozniak signed for the lions for the 2016 season yet Poland have stopped him riding for Leicester until they decide he can return to British speedway. Do you think polish riders would not ride in the polish national final as they are contracted to ride in a British meeting ? -

You insult every poster who has a different opinion to you, maybe your the one who should go away as a forum is for opinions surely. -

Yes I would say it to his face and will when I see him but like most who are not happy with him don't dislike or hate him as you put it but are just very disappointed in him. So he wanted the young blood to have a chance in the British final, that is even worse, so disrespectful in so many ways. I know of a number of riders who have done good things for charity & fans over the years but none that wanted to take a film crew. Sadly Tai is surrounded by yes people and he maybe is a nice person but he needs someone to advice him better as he is very marmite which is a shame for a very talented rider who could be one of the best all time successful Brits. -

But he should of been made to ride for the British fans in the British final or faced with being banned for team gb in the World Cup. He clearly disrespected the British title. -

The team he passionately sings the national anthem too and the flag tattooed on his back is who he wishes he had chosen. -

Training school lol my sides are hurting but at least you had ago more than most gobrubbishes on here. You like most think you know who I am but there you go keep plugging away. Oops someone must tell Pearson not to make comments about riders as he was not a rider, or Scott nicholls as he was not as good as tai or lee Dixon because he was not as good as Rooney and should Coleman be telling bale what to do as he was not in the same class. Some of you really make me laugh, I do wonder if you have an influence on the sport and that's why it's less thought of than bowls. It's better to have had a go than to dream and never do it. -

What stupid comments from someone like you who never had the guts to race but pretends to be the keyboard warrior of authority as you of course Have raced but that was in your sleep lol So tell me how much you think top riders are on in Poland as you seem to think you know more about it ? I am not bothered if I ever go to another speedway meeting if I am honest,it's not the same anymore, I think you lost the point I didn't say £50 it was what someone said it's better than riders getting in free,please get your facts right. -
It's always been the same even back in the old BJL they treated British kids awfully and a number of times first team riders went out for a practice then time ran out to complete the junior meeting. I once had 5 races in 6 heats all run in a short time.

Seeing tai is earning over 1 million a season just in Poland without adding Sweden yes I am sure. Another one who doesn't read my posts, I think free entry for riders is respectful but I said I would be happy to donate £50 a season for a pass where the money goes to the Ben fund. I have given my fair share of money to funds for riders killed in the sport aswel as injured So how much have you given ? -

I did something you could never match, so I guess your the one who failed ? You don't mention Tatum or Pearson giving opinions funny that and the latter was vocal about tai letting the fans down for the British final. -

Did he ride in it as 2x world champion? Yes I knew that but he would put more bums on seats now he is double world champion and raise more money for these guys who don't get the Darcy support.
