Should Tai Woffinden Ride For Team Gb ?


Recommended Posts

He has plenty time to bring a bike from Sweden on the Tuesday to the Uk on the sunday with ease before getting it back to Sweden on the Tuesday if he so wishes ..he has people who work for him who could did this ....so it's not a irrelevant point all ...to say a world champion can't get a bike to speedway meeting is laughable

If the EL was a major force like it was in yesteryear as the BL was you would have a point.But England is now an after thought,a hindrance to riders most people know and except that be great to see Tai ride at the superb new Belle Vue track in the WTC.

What has the El being a force have to do with a World Champion getting a speedway bike to a meeting .

dear god after everything that has been said with reasoned arguements you all still think he could get bikes here..

 

with league fixtures either side of the semi's and final he couldnt get a bike over here let alone 3 as he needs those bikes for his league fictures in sweden and poland.. you really are not considering he turns up with one bike.. he would need two minimum..

 

his GP bikes and team however will be here at the next GP as the team has its time to get them prepared and over here..

 

and your world cup arguement is dead in the water there are no fixtures in and around the world cup so that an easy fix isnt it..

 

if someone of you lot that think its possible can post up a detailed reply of how he could get those bikes with travelling times and fixtures either side with no effect of his bikes being available and ready for his league fixtures and reasonably argue your point then i am sure we will all read and take it in..

He could have got bikes there. I suspect it would have meant losing money to race. And would have made no sense at all in terms of his pursuit of the world championship. But his Sweden bikes could surely have been freighted to the UK for Friday and back to swe'd en by Tuesday. It would just make no financial sense to do so, nor in a professional sense.

some people have said his swedish bikes would also be his polish bikes.. one team doing both leagues.. if he that is the case then no that couldnt happen

 

if he did have a team doing both which i think is more the case.. then that could have been done but at a huge cost to Tai personally.. and an unfeasable cost to take on really

Of course he could of got 2 bikes over here for the semi & the final, He just didn't want to do it.

 

He has no problem riding in Poland on the Thursday night then to be in Cardiff for the practice on Friday then race Saturday and back in Poland for Sunday then Sweden Tuesday.

 

British fans won't see much of tai over here now, Cardiff and the World Cup or if there is a Darcy Ward meeting that's it.

I think we are agreed. It was probably posdinle if he really wanted, but would make no sense at all to do it.

IF tai really wanted to ride in the British Final bikes would of got to Manchester Fact.

 

Also If it was the Monster British final then Tai Would of been there for the semi and the final.

 

You make a very weak case for tai not riding in the British Final

you tell me exactly how he would do it bike are all taken up swedish and polish leagues before and after the meetings take place.. and the final was a day and a half after the GP in denmark..

 

and consider Tai shouldnt be out of pocket doing this either..

 

come up with a case now and prove that he could do it within a budget that he WILL NOT LOOSE ANY MONEY RIDING IN IT..

 

if you cant do that please stop with this drivel you keep spouting.. if someone could do that then i may take you seriously..

 

i could say you know what its possible for me to fly to Mars on the back of a Pigeon but really i couldnt.

 

so the challenge is there prove he could do it instead of just typing it... prove it or stop talking tripe

TAI WASNT IN THE BRITISH FINAL NOR OFFERED A PLACE AS THE ISSUE WAS THE SEMI FINAL!!

 

You are quite literally the most foolish idiot i have had the pleasure of conversing with.

 

Do us all a favour and just leave either this thread or the forum or preferably both.

 

Your anti Tai stance rears its head on every thread you post on. Your very sad and very pathetic and simply a troll

 

Other people have opinions that i dont agree with but nobody is as thick as you are

 

I couldnt care less if you run to the mods people are sick of you on this thread and the drivel you post.

Robs got zero idea re the demands of a top level speedway rider, never has, never will…..he thinks it is all about strapping a bike to the back of a Capri and driving an hour for 2 minutes work…

 

No context or understanding of what it takes to reach the pinnacle of the sport, the sacrifices needed etc and so on, he said so himself.

 

That said it, is irrelevant, Woffinden not being at the British Final was nothing to do with bikes being in the UK or not, he literally explained why he didn't ride in it.

Ah, you've got it now. You've been insisting it would have been IMPOSSIBLE for Tai to have got a bike or two over here for a British semi-final but now you see he could have done but IT WOULDN'T HAVE BEEN FINANCIALLY VIABLE FOR HIM TO DO.

 

So, possible yes but not really worth it.

 

And are you seriously suggesting that ALL Tai's bikes are in vans going between Sweden and Poland or GPs? No spares tucked away in Polish or Swedish workshops, none at home or with a tuner? No spare machines anywhere that could have been sent over here for a semi-final had he wanted to ride?

You have a real aggressive problem and surprised you still get away with personal abusive posts.

 

I never failed as a rider because I did something you and many others could never do,so your the one who failed.

 

You have failed to comment on others who say the same as me,you are one who knows nothing,oops I forgot your a family friend of mark loram lol my sides hurt everytime I think of that comment by you,pure class

 

It's time you stopped your abusive comments as you look really stupid

none at home.. and a tuner will only have engines.. and i pretty sure they need a bike to be put into..

 

bikes are one thing but read the rest time limits and everything else..

 

and i am saying it would be impossible for him to do it.. i am asking for someone to prove otherwise and a way it wont cost him a fortune..

 

of course he could fly them in and out but really is that a probable option.. ?? i dont think so hence my word impossible..

 

but this is more about his time table for his other comitments as well.. and the fact he didnt ride the Semi's due to fixture clashes

You have a real aggressive problem and surprised you still get away with personal abusive posts.

ive given you facts for that pal so i suggest you shut up on that topic.

 

You are laughed at and ridiculed by the vast majority because you are a prat but i guess you enjoy it

 

Im not a failed speedway rider pal as i never tried it. Who knows i could have been better than you if i did.

 

Failed means trying something and not being very good at it.

I know exactly what goes on at the highest level and that's why I know tai could get bikes to Manchester.

The meaning of failed is like you never having the balls to try it.

 

I keep forgetting you know more than me as your uncle gave mark loram a few quid while you stood on the terraces watching because you were to scared to try it.

 

You really are a nobody and I guess that's why your so aggressive.
