CB252 Posted September 5, 2015 Report Share Posted September 5, 2015 Bomber - the new Andy Smith of the GPs - absolute cr@p throughout the year and then qualifies from the last chance saloon. Well done Bomber - a valuable addition to the series and ensures that GB have two riders - one at the top and the other at the tail It ensures we have one proper Brit and one pretend one that can't be arsed to ride in the UK and refers to Australia as 'home' at every opportunity? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What does the 'proper' Brit do to raise money for charities in his beloved country then? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColinMills Posted September 5, 2015 Report Share Posted September 5, 2015 whoever cb252 is needs a reality check...Tai raising over 100k for great ormand street alone is incredible, his 21 point max in the world cup for gb was stunning..he has the potential to be the best EVER rider, and the exposure british speedway media gave him on gp week at Cardiff (daily star especially) was great..if anyone saw his documentary, the schedule, is crazy.. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ColinMills Posted September 6, 2015 Report Share Posted September 6, 2015 really? scb? another woffy knocker? when british speedway is rock bottom, these pathetic woffy knockers are really insane.. lets forget the dedication of raising 100k plus for a british hospital, that's clearly irrelivent to some people!! The speedway world cup has not been won since 1989 for gb, with Tai, that 26 year run is likely to end sooner rather than later. Tai will give Britain media coverage that no other brit can ever achieve, Tai "could" top ricko/mauger 6 world titles.. Whats better?.. winning a world title...or riding for wolves?....pretty obviously riding for wolves for some people!! A big sacrifice was made, and its paying off big time this year, in his bid for a 2nd world title.. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoFastTurnLeft Posted September 6, 2015 Report Share Posted September 6, 2015 The fact Woffy doesn't want to race in the UK says a lot more about the state of British Speedway than it does about Tai. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mdmc82 Posted September 6, 2015 Report Share Posted September 6, 2015 Hans finished 2nd in the individual meeting in Poland yesterday. Good to see him looking faster over the last week. With both Harris & Hans having podium places this weekend, fingers crossed Garrity can do the same today. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve0 Posted September 6, 2015 Report Share Posted September 6, 2015 (edited) Well look on the bright side at least he is not Scottish,else he would never qualify for anything,ever! Oh very funny - Not (but true sadly). I have nothing against Bomber - I really like him when riding in a team but in an individual event he is pants - except he manages to qualify every year Edited September 6, 2015 by Steve0 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kingbee Posted September 6, 2015 Report Share Posted September 6, 2015 Harris has not qualified every year he's had a few wild cards and a lot of look when fourth reserve and others had to drop out through injury Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCB Posted September 6, 2015 Report Share Posted September 6, 2015 (edited) Harris has not qualified every year he's had a few wild cards and a lot of look when fourth reserve and others had to drop out through injuryhes qualified 4 times, he finished 9th one year (joint 7th but lost a run off), finished 4th in a qualifier once. Yes he's always done by the skin of his teeth but qualifying 4 times and clearly being top non-qualifier twice does suggest he's otetty deserving. Now look at AJ and his string of wild cards! But ultimately, despite AJ wild cards he has been one of the top 15 in the world so deserves it. really? scb? another woffy knocker? when british speedway is rock bottom, these pathetic woffy knockers are really insane.. lets forget the dedication of raising 100k plus for a british hospital, that's clearly irrelivent to some people!!

A big sacrifice was made, and its paying off big time this year, in his bid for a 2nd world title.. I am not a Woffy hater, far from it. Just pointing out that doing charity work does not make you British. It's an obscure logic. Edited September 6, 2015 by SCB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woz01 Posted September 6, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 6, 2015 I've just read that ex Bee Filip Sitera suffered severe injuries while riding in the Czech Rep a couple of months back. The list of injuries sound horrific. Harris has not qualified every year he's had a few wild cards and a lot of look when fourth reserve and others had to drop out through injury But the last 2 years he's qualified fair and square. So deserving of next years spot. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevebrum Posted September 6, 2015 Report Share Posted September 6, 2015 Jason Crump was born in Britain - and he's Australian #justsaying Correct, right of choice. Jason picked one way, Tai picked the other. And they both can change if they want! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
