Just been on that page and I can't see any comments from Darcy at all let alone posting something about Tai. Someone has posted a newspaper article about Tai and him racing for free in the SWC with quotes from Tai too. Edited to acknowledge TheReturn's post above. As I say, I didn't see any post from Darcy but it seems it's there somewhere. Just looked closer and it most certainly IS there. Post 3 under said article!!

I regularly post on the official Poole forum using the exact same name...feel free to pop over to see for yourself. I have plenty of fellow supports over there who know me very well as I've been on there for years. I also initiated the PVC many years ago (something which you won't understand) and only long term Poole forum members will know what that is. starman (also a regular poster on the Poole forum - and yes he gets just as much stick there too!!) knows I'm not Gavan but I wouldn't expect him to pipe up for me as we've locked horns on both forums many times. Dazzafl also knows I'm not Gavan as we've recently had a private message exchange. Maybe you could confirm this Dazzafl so this ridiculous accusation can be put to bed ponce and for all!?! Very few Poole forum members post on the BSF for many reasons and the current stupidity over Gavan and I only emphasises why!! I shouldn't need to prove myself on here or anywhere else and I will continue reporting all posts which infer I am somebody else. I've also never had a forum warning or been banned. I have never reported anyone until now as I'm a very firm believer in freedom of speech, so I have no idea (yet again) what you're banging on about. To date I have reported two forum members for continual insinuations that I am some body else and I will report others that do the same. You yourself were recently banned for abuse, name calling and other forum violations so I'd keep quiet on this topic if I were you.

As I have stated elsewhere, from now onwards all posts accusing me of being some one I clearly am not will be reported. And again, my ip is not in Poole (or Essex) but Southampton! That's twice now. I look forward to your apology.

Whilst I did initially 'laugh things off' I'm starting to get really annoyed as there's only so many times a false accusation will be tolerated. This is not within the forum rules. From now onwards all posts accusing me of being someone I'm not will be reported. If you had been following other Tai threads you would have seen differently for yourself. Have a shufty at the now locked 'Should Tai ride for Team GB' thread, you may change your opinion.

Spot on, I'll be happy to name a few....

robert72 is the biggest Tai hater on this forum so you (like many of us) should ignore anything he says with regards to Tai. He knows jack no matter what he claims.

Of course they will, if you think otherwise you really are in cloud cuckoo land.

Come on Lisa, you're better than that . Just because a couple of wallies think we are the same poster I'm now not allowed to respond to Gavan's posts? Nah, I'll respond to anyone I wish to. I'm on the verge of asking the mods to confirm things as I'm getting a touch cheesed off with this ridiculous allegation!!

He tried the same with me don't forget and I haven't fed 'it' so 'it's' gone quiet with me thank Gawd. Then again in his weird and warped mind he probably thinks by trolling you he's also trolling me! p.s. I've never met Mark on a one to one basis, but I loved watching him ride the boards at Poole. He used to go so much wider than anyone else I've ever seen round bend two and every time he did it I was sure he'd come off due to the depth of the shale and grip he used to get. It was just awesome to watch him do it lap after lap after lap and maintain control. Fantastic memories

It doesn't mater who is picked next year as we're gonna get tonked.

I wouldn't say one loss away to Swindon is chucking it away Gavan!! We'll recover those lost points tomorrow when the whipping boys arrive at Wimborne Road I'd still say we're favourites over 2 legs (but I'm biased lol) however BV continue to look good with Swindon now playing rapid catch up and Wolves thereabouts also. It could be one of the better playoff years for a while.

I'll laugh my arse off of Tai ever signed for us then Lisa!

Careful BWitcher, Pinny will think there's 3 of us! Now there's 4!!

As far as I'm aware only two have said it....yourself and Orion and you both look like 's And before you start, that is an acceptable term on this forum and a term I've never seen Gavan use - he prefers to use stronger (and justified in many cases, not always though to be fair) terms. I've repeatedly said the same.

I still wouldn't bet against us over two legs!!! Oh and as for your suggested team changes Your post proves you know very little about speedway in the UK, Swindon is a very well known gate and go track and the Swindon boys were just far better out of the gate. So well done to 'em.

Good luck with that, he only does it when we win. Come on, I was closer

Oops! Got that wrong...onwards and upwards though.

I assume you jest. While Gavan and I may share the same opinion on some points (not all), my posts are less direct and confrontational (no offence meant Gavan). I have also had some private messages in the past with Dazzafl (and a few others) so he (like them) know I'm not Gavan. Anyone is free to do the same if you really, REALLY believe we're the same person. Personally I find it quite hilarious that we're being compared bearing in mind I'm a lifelong Pirate supporter and Gavan certainly is not! I beg to differ on that. Read my posts on the previous pages and read Gavan's. Completely un-identical from start to finish. Oh and I won't call you any names...as that's not my style unless pushed beyond the boundaries of common sense, which you've actually managed to surpass. Because thousands and thousands of UK speedway supporters appreciate him - despite the handful of haters on here. :rofl: Feel free to drop by Southampton anytime as I live there, not Poole! Something you would know if you bothered to look at my profile.

I'll go for a Poole win, but not by much.

No we won't win it...but we came damn close this year for one reason and one reason only...Tai Woffinden!!! So it DOES make a difference if he rides for Team GB. Come on, even you can comprehend that. The SWC will be a very embarrassing week for Team GB in 2017 for which there is no doubt. In fact I wouldn't be surprised if we pulled out as the quality on show will get battered. Oh and I think you'll find about 35,000 people at Cardiff every year disagree with your final statement, it's just a handful on here who voice otherwise. So 35,000 v a handful Tai has stated that he's not riding for Team GB in 2017 and made known that he has some kind of difference of opinion with the BSPA over a number of things. Why do we need to know more? Why do we have the right to know more? We don't and it's his prerogative to tell 'us' what he wants 'us' to know. The BSPA have the same option open to them, however as always they've remained silent. Why don't you lobby them for answers???

I haven't called anyone anything... I have explained what I feel and why until I'm blue in the face, you bandwogoners just refuse to consider anything other than constant berating, for to be perfectly honest rather silly reasons. If constantly saying "I see Tai for what he is.." makes you feel better then carry on posting it. I on the other hand appreciate what Tai has done for UK speedway and Team GB during the past 3 or 4 years, without him we would be even further behind the bigger nations than we are now. Yes he could do some of the things he has in a more professional manner, however he obviously wears his heart on his sleeve and doesn't think before speaking. Most of us suffer from that from time to time too!! If you're happy to carry on watching British speedway fall further and further behind Poland, Sweden, Denmark and even Russia these days then that's fine, however Tai obviously felt he had something to offer to assist with progress in this country but that hasn't been embraced by the powers that be. Why should he continue to ride his arse off when we have absolutely no-one who can give him some back up as he's so far ahead of everyone else in the UK it's ridiculous?!? I also find it rather amusing that many on here are saying 'good riddance' etc. etc. I don't think you'll be saying that hen we get an embarrassing thumping from one of the minor nations in next years SWC. How can that be positive in any way shape or form? In fact getting such a tonking will only have a negative effect on those that do in fact turn out for Team GB.

Oh dear oh dear. It would appear very few of us are willing to consider things from a wider perspective. Jumping on the 'I hate Tai because he's outspoken and has turned his back on the Team GB' bandwagon is quite simply childish IMO.

Reply deleted as Phil The Ace extended/edited his post with additional info.

I quite agree with all of that. How anyone can question Tai's commitment to British speedway as a whole over the past 4 or 5 years is beyond me. And before the usual suspects start, not riding in the British Final has nothing to do with wanting the very best for up and coming British riders....which is obviously something Tai feels passionately about. Have you seen any British riders publicly say anything negative about Tai? No, but plenty (especially the younger riders) have stated how Tai has helped them. Tai is the first British rider to seriously try to get the BSPA to change their ways and improve things for the future, but they seem intent on remaining the obstinate bunch of buffoons they have been for donkeys. Just about everyone is in agreement that British speedway needs a monumental shake up so Tai has given that a go - but yet a number on here are berating him for trying to do exactly what you say needs doing!! No wonder the kid has had enough (for now).

What's your problem? All I've asked you to do is stop quoting "All Poole fans this and Most Poole fans that" as it's not correct in the context you persist in using it! That's a pretty reasonable request, however you say it's bullying Jeez, I feel sorry for some one that has a real issue with you...then again you just block 'em because you can't take the heat. Persisting to speak on behalf of others and making statements in which you quote "others" agree with you is not acceptable whether you like it or not, particularly as I'm in this group you constantly refer to. Oh and if I was this 'bully' you describe surely I would have received the same treatment as your jester in crime, the Tai hater and quite possibly you yourself in previous years. Now read the above, absorb it and have a Time to move on FFS. I have one issue with one particular poster...so yes, I guess that makes me the Forum Police Priceless and rather hilarious. Are you starman? What are you on about? I comment on practically ALL Poole threads as it's the team I've supported without wavering since I was taken to Wimborne Road by my father when I was a littlun'. I still go regularly with him (stand between bends 1 and 2 and I follow Poole around the country occasionally too, work allowing. I live near Southampton and as I've stated previously on other threads my mother used to babysit for MIddlo when he was a toddler (parents lived in Boscombe then - and Bournemouth is my home town) way before I came along. I can't be any more transparent than that. So yes, I'm Gavan I would normally respond to your Middlo comments, however I'd best not as I'd only be posting in reply to myself (apparently!).
