Tommy Sweetman Posted October 11, 2013 Report Share Posted October 11, 2013 Does it really matter what Tattoos he has as this is a young man who has reached the very top at just 23 and done it in such a way that the country should be proud of by raising money for charity and giving thousands of people time for photos and autographs. Good to see he is looking at another year at Wolverhampton and give British Speedway a lift it very much needed. Also doing "An evening with Tai Woffinden" at the Cleevland Arms,along with Nigel Pearson on Nov 7th.Photos,autographs etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Turner Posted October 13, 2013 Report Share Posted October 13, 2013 Eh? I agree that tattoos are very popular nowadays but there are limits! I really like Tai and he comes across very well and I am very pleased that he is world champion. If Tai wasn't doing speedway, his tattoos could be career limiting or ending - that's his choice though! Like Chalkie - I'm an old fart! I dislike tattoo's too but who really cares? Its no different to jewelry only he can't take it off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattK Posted October 13, 2013 Report Share Posted October 13, 2013 Does anyone remember the BSPA doing anything this season to promote the fact that the World Champion (Chris Holder) was appearing at a track near you? No, me neither. Therefore I won't hold my breath for a major publicity push for Tai, if he chooses to ride in Britain next year. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't forget the BSPA are the promoters themselves, not some separate organisation!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weatherwatcher Posted October 15, 2013 Report Share Posted October 15, 2013 I must say that I liked what he said in the interview at the Last GP that he was commited to doing his best to start a rider training school at Scunthorpe. There is so much need to help the young up and coming British riders to do their best not just for their clubs but their country. Watched the British Rider final on Sky last night after the wash out of the Elite League final. What a sad lot we have we have Tai who stands head and shoulders above the rest, then a few older riders who still try and are still up there in the Elite League, but we need to do more for the young lads who ride in the lower leagues. I think that it is time for all the Elite League clubs to offer reserve place to British riders the only way they are going to come on in world speeway is to be thrown in amoungst to to level riders and not just fight it out in the lower leagues. All said though some of these guys who withoutout them the sport of speedway would be lost, ride week in week out with just one bike on a very restricted budjet and would need good sponsers and a good team behind them. Something they could hardly afford, as most of them live on a shoe string budjet. Hts off to them. We need to find a solution to this doldrums that the UK riders team are going through at the moment, I am glad for what Tia has managed to do this year and hope he can repeate it again in the years to come. But for the sake of the sport we need more UK riders to be able to step up in to the class that now Tia has now made for himself, not just in the UK but on world stage. Lets make the UK a world beater again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david2905 Posted October 16, 2013 Report Share Posted October 16, 2013 Poole maybe but certainly not that shambles of a Birmingham side I watched last night! Because Peterborough are in such a strong position to criticise, having finished 6th or something and bouncing along the bottom for 80% of the season and what have ya...

I had to wait 8 days for that! Brum helped make the final the most one sided play off final in almost 15 years! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And Boro were probably the only team that could have beaten Poole over 2 legs IMO, as they did convincingly in the two league meetings... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolves won 3 of the 4 league meetings against them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lets face it they were probably the only team to have been able to take on Poole in the play offs. Panthers would have been clear favourites if they made the top 4. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richsimpson Posted October 18, 2013 Report Share Posted October 18, 2013 Hope Woffy is in the uk in 2014, not a fan of his really but the fans deserve to see their World Champion. They don't come around that often! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
