  1. yes well done Swindon, our away wins was nice while it lasted.
  2. I'm merely pointing out that Tai like any other person/sportsman/worker is entitled to choose where they work, it would be great if speedway in the UK was ridden in front of full houses and attracted the big names like yesteryear, but sadly it don't anymore and until it does we will not attract the big names.
  3. sorry to dissagree with you, but just because Tai chooses to earn his wages abroad (perfectly legal in the EU) that doesn't make him the person you are trying to make him. Like I said earlier, the blame lies solely at the door of the BSPA.
  4. Why are you being so short sighted, Tai was brought up in Aus, and learnt to ride motor bikes including Speedway bikes down under and indeed was the under 16 Aus champion. He returned to these shores with his Parents as his Dad Rob! R.I.P. knew this was where Tai could fine tune his ability. He rode for Scunny and Rye House in the old Conference league, he's also rode at reserve for Poole before signing for Wolves. I believe Tai still considers Perth as his home, nowt wrong with that considering that's where he grew up! but as he has duel nationality he has chosen to represent GB at international level. As for being arrogant, then again I'm ok with that as this arrogant speedway rider has done more for Charity than any other world champ.
  5. You know full well where they started their football career, bit like where Tai started his, and if the EL was anywhere near as good as the Polish or Swedish leagues then Tai and many more GP riders would still be riding here. We've just had a winter full of slating how weak and poor the EL is, we need the powers that be to encourage top riders back, but that won't happen until it's worth it for them. And that my friend is a fact.
  6. As for all the bad mouthers on here, lets not forget where L Messi,C Ronaldo, Neymar,G Bale and many many more pro footballers earn their crust, yes that's correct not in their home country. Give the guy a break, if you want to blame anybody lets start and end with the good old BSPA, after all they have let our sport decline over the years.
  7. Tai can earn enough money to keep him happy without having to mess about with the amateur run EL that we have today. I would support any Brit that wears the union jack in team or individual events. The words typed by the ever so blue SS are only venomous because Tai is a world champ and doesn't ride for Poole
  8. I think the Robins will really be up for this after a poor start to the season, I will be happy with a draw.
  9. should be ready for 2017 then, you've not been talking to Chapman by any chance,have you!.
  10. Don't waste your time and energy trying to explain to someone who clearly only wants to lay blame.
  11. caught hook line and sinker, or has Orion would say Wooooosh
  12. Wolves to win and take 4 points home with them. Swindon only have 1 EL rider, the rest are PL or NL
  13. Belle Vue's promotion have not lied about the postponement of the match against Leicester, they had to be careful what they said because of legal reasons. A fault with the drainage system arose after 1 or 2 heavy showers on Thursday on turns 3/4, this fault caused rain water to seep up onto the track instead of going into the drainage system (as it did on the rest of the track) as showers were forecast on Friday the decision to call off the match was made due to the weather. This was the safest reason for our promotion as like I said earlier, legal issues!
  14. What do you expect from someone whose head is in the sky.
  15. Leicester are like Belle Vue they own there own track, therefore could negotiate with better riders/GP riders and have 2 race nights. A Friday/Saturday when there's no GP and a midweek night when there is. Speedway can ill afford another Birmingham, wake up Mr Helmsley and smell the coffee.
  16. During the winter when our teams name were released, the Phrase "our own" and Max Fricke were in the same sentence.
  17. Seems you failed to read all the post so I'll repeat it. "That though is in the past, lets leave it there
  18. I'll be a man and ignore your personal remark.
  19. Gogglegate was cheating simply because the rider and the Poole management knew the rules and chose to ignore them. We took a chance with the hosepipe shambles and were rightly punished by the Governing body, the same governing body which didn't have the balls to deduct those 2 rule breaking points that actually cost us the league last season. That though is in the past. Lets leave it there.
  20. And saturday's lottery winning numbers are.......................................
  21. Hell of a long time since we've seen a prediction like this from any speedway fan, I'm loving it. Sadly I can't see past Poole as the 2016 champions............again. There is also 1 team whose 1-5 have lots of improvement in them and probably the best No 6, so for me Wolves are my dark horses. Top 4 of Poole top, then 2-4 in no particular order of Belle Vue, Swindon and Wolves. 5-7 in no particular order of Coventry, Kings Lynn and Lakeside, with Leicester the new Belle Vue of the Elite League.
