Mark Posted May 8, 2015 Report Share Posted May 8, 2015 (edited) Unfortunately Scott is another rider who turned his back on his country! Not true. He had good reason. Before that he always gave 100%. Edited May 8, 2015 by marky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Falcon Hammer Posted May 8, 2015 Report Share Posted May 8, 2015 Not Scott's fault he isn't riding: Â @scottnicholls78: @AJROSCO not forgetting our powers that be blocked me from doing this event didn't they?Was I not the rider that fought to get UK riders in?

Bostonian Posted May 9, 2015 Report Share Posted May 9, 2015 (edited) Obviously don't know the ins and outs yet.... But the talk on social media tonight about the reason Woffy has pulled out is a disgrace!!Kicked up a storm to the authorities about us not being part of it, now has pulled out to test his bikes? Now he's either pulling a fast one or there's another reason behind it...Be good to see Lambert in again though, imagine h'll surprise a few again like the other weekend for Lynn at Gorzow!(PS. Hopefully once we know more, we'll have a proper understanding of this mess!) Edited May 9, 2015 by Bostonian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCB Posted May 9, 2015 Report Share Posted May 9, 2015 And we wondered why the BSPA/SCB wanted nothing to do with it. It seems our riders just couldn't give a crap. All too happy to make an easy living out of league speedway to push themselves and better them selves in this kind of competition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waiheke1 Posted May 9, 2015 Report Share Posted May 9, 2015 Tbf to woffy team GB has only been entered in the final round - may have been different if they'd been in all 3? Whats the story with Nichols, surely he should have been picked for this with the hope of him becoming available for swc? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mdmc82 Posted May 9, 2015 Report Share Posted May 9, 2015 (edited) Now this seems to put a different slant on things not riding for your country but this competition is only invitational meeting at best.True, however wasn't it Tai who took to Twitter wanting to know why he wasn't allowed to ride in this meeting and making a huge deal of it. Then once Rosco goes to a lot of effort to make it happen, Tai decides at short notice, that he will not just test his bikes for the GP (that is a couple of weeks ago) surely he could have used them in this meeting to test them. He's ego has grown a lot over the last couple of years. I personally hope he isn't made captain of team GB in the World Cup as not really a team player, has really let Rosco down.

Woz01 Posted May 9, 2015 Report Share Posted May 9, 2015 It's a shame Bomber isn't available tonight as you just know he would have jumped at the chance. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trees Posted May 9, 2015 Report Share Posted May 9, 2015 Remain peed off that Tai isn't racing here this year but I'm betting there is more to this pull out than meets the eye, sure Rosco tweeted it's political. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mdmc82 Posted May 9, 2015 Report Share Posted May 9, 2015 Confirmed now as Robert Lambert & Rory Schlein. Rory really is the guest of the year 😄 Â Does this mean Rory can now ride for us in the SWC if he wanted to? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A ORLOV Posted May 9, 2015 Report Share Posted May 9, 2015 Confirmed now as Robert Lambert & Rory Schlein. Rory really is the guest of the year  Does this mean Rory can now ride for us in the SWC if he wanted to? Who is the reserve, Fred Karno ?

mdmc82 Posted May 9, 2015 Report Share Posted May 9, 2015 I bet Tai won't be too busy testing his bikes when it comes to representing himself in the British Final though. I think the problem is because he is a great talent, he has become to believe he is team GB. He definitely has the Aussie arrogance. Â I am looking forward to watching Lambert who is already showing huge amounts of talent & maturity at only 17. Thanks to Rory for stepping in as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grachan Posted May 9, 2015 Report Share Posted May 9, 2015 What are Rory's credentials for becoming a full time British rider? I remember him riding for Sheffield's junior side and apparently he has British residency. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Star Lady Posted May 9, 2015 Report Share Posted May 9, 2015 Think he rides on an ACU licence. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mdmc82 Posted May 9, 2015 Report Share Posted May 9, 2015 It's being implied that the Polish league are stopping Woffy riding in the meeting. I thought they only had control over Polish riders? Â Still would have no sympathy as it was his choice to rider for every other league ahead of his own. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grachan Posted May 9, 2015 Report Share Posted May 9, 2015 (edited) Can we use him in the World Cup though? (Rory that is) Edited May 9, 2015 by grachan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
racers and royals Posted May 9, 2015 Report Share Posted May 9, 2015 It's being implied that the Polish league are stopping Woffy riding in the meeting. I thought they only had control over Polish riders?  Still would have no sympathy as it was his choice to rider for every other league ahead of his own. More like his club-Wroclaw. it`s their 1st home match of the season tomorrow and they have probably said to their team- "we are having a practice today-you will be here" With wages for the top riders in Poland at around £1500 per point you do as you are told.

Grachan Posted May 9, 2015 Report Share Posted May 9, 2015 (edited) So it's not as straight forward as Tai just deciding not to ride because he wanted to test some bikes then. Edited May 9, 2015 by grachan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Star Lady Posted May 9, 2015 Report Share Posted May 9, 2015 So where is his loyalty to Rosco who pushed for GB to compete in this comp? Sorry money over pride in your country doesn't cut it for me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
