spin king Posted June 6, 2007 Report Share Posted June 6, 2007 Well done to David Howe, and how nice of him to come on the forum and thank people, I have to say that he came over as a really nice guy on the box. I know from talking to tthe people who ran the Sheffield training track when it was operational that David was a regular when he was a youngster, use to tell me what a nice guy he was and that he would come down often and donate gear for the training track to use. Just goes to show that nice guy do win sometimes, Good Luck David and enjoy Cardiff it is well deserved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shazzybird Posted June 6, 2007 Report Share Posted June 6, 2007 yes, its terrible to be proud to support a rider. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> No not at all it's nice to see riders with loads of support from fans all over the country but reading your posting was a bit licky, yet had the referee had a bit of bottle and excluded him or Nicholls we would all be congratulating another rider wouldn't we Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevebrum Posted June 6, 2007 Report Share Posted June 6, 2007 (edited) trust you to read EVERY word!!!!! Sorry but I always do with your posts as they are so interesting. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> i will take that as a compliment even tho i know its not Gemini No not at all it's nice to see riders with loads of support from fans all over the country but reading your posting was a bit licky, yet had the referee had a bit of bottle and excluded him or Nicholls we would all be congratulating another rider wouldn't we <{POST_SNAPBACK}> licky? im proud to support and know the bloke. If thats licky then so be it Why would the referee have excluded anyone anyway? 1st bend incident. Why would it have made a difference? kennett would have still been beaten by Howe. See, you have your opinion and i have mine. Yours aint right and nor is mine!! Edited June 6, 2007 by stevebrum Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shazzybird Posted June 6, 2007 Report Share Posted June 6, 2007 Change your Green Grocer Shazzy. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> It's very nice of you to suggest this but unfortunately if I did my Uncle would get the 'ump. As for the sour grapes you are suggesting I've purchased, I'm not too proud to admit I have a fruit bowl full of them after Edward not getting to Cardiff Doesn't mean I wont be cheering the other Brits that are there all the way to the semi finals hopefully one or two in the final as well, yes Scott included (but really can't see it, you watch him make me eat my words now ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T.N.T. Posted June 6, 2007 Report Share Posted June 6, 2007 The only photo I have was with Bianca . . . Shame you didnt mention about that spare suit earlier <{POST_SNAPBACK}> The other spare suit had a hole in it!<{POST_SNAPBACK}> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the.pits Posted June 6, 2007 Report Share Posted June 6, 2007 Whoa Stevie-boy.....Good lord if the title had been decided on how fast you can back-peddle you'd have been standing in Bomber's place last night! Championship winning stuff there!!!!! Howie - brutally honest and totally fair....just what we've come to expect. You are going to Cardiff matey and it doesn't matter how many sour grapes have been consumed in the Dorset area over the last 24 hours - no-one can take that away from you. Well done chap! Loved the grin on TV by the way......... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Surprising how fast you can peddle backwards with a face both front and back of your head Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Saint Posted June 7, 2007 Report Share Posted June 7, 2007 In a somewhat dull meeting, Chris Harris and David Howe provided some excitement. Chris is worth every penny of any admission ticket and there are few riders that can be said about today. As for David, whether it was "home track advantage", luck or just plain excellent riding, he produced the goods when it was needed and must be given credit for that! I wish them both every success for Cardiff and their future careers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hazzman Posted June 7, 2007 Report Share Posted June 7, 2007 GP 2008 Qualifiers confirmed in this week's SS. Harris will contest the qualifiers! but Kennett has decided not to...deciding that the U21 title is his goal. He and Howe will be at Terenzano, Italy on June 23 King and Bridger will be at Mseno, Czech Republic on June 24 Allen and Stead will be at Motala, Sweden on June 30 (yes, same night as Cardiff) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bazski Posted June 7, 2007 Report Share Posted June 7, 2007 [/size] Even the TWR design on the team shirts is made up from the Australian Flag. The only photo I have was with Bianca . . . Shame you didnt mention about that spare suit earlier Just like to say thanks and well done again to Jonathan Chapman on giving these meetings a touch of the 21st Century with posters, displays, side shows, good looking girls, guests etc etc. Maybe next years project for JC is to work alongside Sam Ermolenko and Jan Staechmann about trying to promote the Elite League. Cheers for taking the photo JC and if you get Bianca a ticket for Cardiff . . you can get me one too <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Why don,t you sad people get a life at the end of the day the our national team is called team great britain and face it there is nothing great about this country so aint that a contradiction maybe the lad had his logo designed when he started racing so why should he change it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bazski Posted June 7, 2007 Report Share Posted June 7, 2007 who gives a toss, if he was born a pom, then he,s a pom . i have 2 nephews, born in Hertfordshire. ENGLAND, they moved to aussie land when they where approx 3yrs old, they are now 24yrs old, and still living in aussie land, but you ask them what nationality they are they will say bugger, we are pommie bastads, and proud of it, what the f*^k has a flag got to do with it, it says India on my car tyres but it dont mean i,m indian, does it, t*(ts <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Well said onc onc end of story nothing else needs saying now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Jacques Posted June 7, 2007 Report Share Posted June 7, 2007 (edited) Well said onc onc end of story nothing else needs saying now <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Bazski, it seems that certain individuals get pleasure out of knocking the youngsters....but why??? I couldn't care less what he wears on his kevlars ( maybe he's proud of his heritage) nothing wrong with that.....there's all this talk about the future of the sport, encouraging the young riders,how many of them have thought ,that ripping a sixteen year old kid to pieces time and time again helps????????

I can guarentee 100 % the same people knocking him would be backing him to the hilt if he was riding for THEIR team. I see it on this forum and everywhere, sad fact of life i'm afraid. It's up to Tai what he decides on his nationality. I just enjoy watching him ride, and hopefully will continue to do WHATEVER he decides Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its clear that starting as a 16 year-old Brit, he can join CL teams and start on a 3.00 average, but cant do that registered as an Aussie. He is not the first to do it as I remember a certain Mr Crump starting in the juniors at Poole as a young Brit. It's simply a blinkered bigotry that comes from only shouting for riders of your own team. I can guarentee 100 % the same people knocking him would be backing him to the hilt if he was riding for THEIR team. I see it on this forum and everywhere, sad fact of life i'm afraid. It's up to Tai what he decides on his nationality. I just enjoy watching him ride, and hopefully will continue to do WHATEVER he decides <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Tai is signed up for Wolverhampton and will in the very near future be lining up for them in the Elite League and I will be very pleased when he does. The lad has a great riding style and looks set for a glittering career, but I would really love to see him carry on as an English rider where he could easily be the #1 Brit by the age of 21 and would gain a great deal more sponsorship as an English rider. So one day he will ride for MY TEAM and WHATEVER nationality he decides to take, I will enjoy watching him ride for Wolves week in week out.
