I think the two front runners are these named in The Telegraph? http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/sports-personality-of-the-year/10341547/Who-should-win-BBC-Sports-Personality-of-the-Year-Andy-Murray-or-Sir-Ben-Ainslie.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grachan Posted October 9, 2013 Report Share Posted October 9, 2013 There's much excitement on the BBC Breakfast sofa this morning, because World Speedway Champion Tai Woffinden is coming in, and he's bringing his bike. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cityrebel Posted October 9, 2013 Report Share Posted October 9, 2013 for those of us already at work at this ungodly hour, how did tai do on his big break at the BBC! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spencebel Posted October 9, 2013 Report Share Posted October 9, 2013 Loved the interview with Tai, they even chatted about his body art........... Also lots of fans outside they said as well......... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikebv Posted October 9, 2013 Report Share Posted October 9, 2013 (edited) came across well.. the interviewer seemed clueless (but then she is about most things having seen her in the north west for a few years).. he showed his 'tats' off which concerned me a bit as people watching may think speedway is a 'bit extreme' and up to date, and he didnt mention that it was simply a 'good old fashioned family sport' which disappointed me as this message has proved so successful over the years!!! all in all, well done Tai.... could speedway now have someone a younger generation can relate to? let's hope so..

ghcooke Posted October 9, 2013 Report Share Posted October 9, 2013 I thought he did really well. Slightly awkward studio setting (away from the sofa so they coould get the bike in) and with the odd camera getting caught in the frame, but the interviewer had obviously done some research and Tai acquitted himself very well. A good, albeit brief, advert for the sport. Let's hope we can use this very personable young man to push the sport forward in the UK.

dontforgetthefueltapsbruv Posted October 9, 2013 Report Share Posted October 9, 2013 A tidy little piece - but thats enough about Susanna what about the interview! I thought Tai came across really well highlighting his family sacrifices his injury battle and his tats. Good on ya fella! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spencebel Posted October 9, 2013 Report Share Posted October 9, 2013 On Tai's twitter, picture of the girl from BBC Sally on his bike........ Well done BBC, Well done Tai, you came across very well. Lets get him on Question of Sport........ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeilWatson Posted October 9, 2013 Report Share Posted October 9, 2013 Tai is being interviewed on Radio 4's flagship 'Today' programme as I write. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikebv Posted October 9, 2013 Report Share Posted October 9, 2013 Tai has done a lot of good work for the sport this morning... Now someone needs to keep him in the media focus thru the winter... Be a shame to lose any awareness momentum he may be bringing... Is he though going back to Oz for the winter?. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
