tocha Posted October 11, 2010 Report Share Posted October 11, 2010 Barker must have been jealous of Woffindens riding ability. Or, perhaps, Ben was jealous that Tai's voice has broken and his hasn't yet lol! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dietbowers Posted October 11, 2010 Report Share Posted October 11, 2010 Lets face it its not the first time that riders have had a bit of a set to, and won't be the last. Yep,but we have the internet nowadays so it`s not so secret when it happens ,and it gives all those with fine upstanding virtues the chance to say how outraged they are about it when they find out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigFatDave Posted October 11, 2010 Report Share Posted October 11, 2010 ..........and it gives all those with fine upstanding virtues the chance to say how outraged they are about it when they find out Not to mention blaming it on Tai's Australian upbringing. Always get yer retaliation in first, I reckon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jayb Posted October 11, 2010 Report Share Posted October 11, 2010 it was to do with tai stating to others that british speedway has never done anything for him and never will do, then waving his aussie passport around, ben told him to go back to aus then, tai did not like the comment, i do believe not many british riders are happy with golden boy tai, this comes from a very reliable source Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T.N.T. Posted October 11, 2010 Report Share Posted October 11, 2010 I hear that Ben Barker and Tai Woffinden had a right old set to, with both sporting black eyes, cuts and bruises. What's that all about then? Monday 11th October .... Monmore Green .... Tai has 9 rides ... wins 6 ... second in 2 .... last in 1 looked good on the track ..... even better off it with not a blemish on him .... not even a black head !! If true, nice one Tai.

I like Tai, and hope to see him progress into one of the best in the world, but he sure hasn't attained excellence yet! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
