Woz01 Posted June 5, 2015 Report Share Posted June 5, 2015 Anyone else think GB have a great chance of getting straight to the final again? Even if we went to the race off I'd fancy our chances now Russia have no Emil. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

customhouseregular Posted June 5, 2015 Report Share Posted June 5, 2015 Only because he's riding as a second string. He's not really doing any better than the last 2 seasons. He's still a class above Ruml though so it's a shame for USA if he has chosen not to ride. Just because he isn't riding tomorrow doesn't mean that he won't ride on Thursday. I for one hope he does.

robert72 Posted June 5, 2015 Report Share Posted June 5, 2015 I see tai is happy to ride in Britain on Monday when it suits him. Shame the bspa don't have the balls to drop him like he has dropped British speedway & the fans who have supported him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish they had them then as if I was Tai and reading this garbage I would find something else to do this week. I would rather grout my bathroom than ride for the likes you mate. The best rider we have had in decades and he deserves better than us lot. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'll be British when he wins the World Championship again. Sometimes he has to make a decision based on his income, like many top riders do, and sacrifice where his heart is so he can earn a good living while he can. I'm sure if he could earn even 75% of what he does in foreign leagues he would consider staying in British speedway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just give it a rest you've been saying the same thing for weeks we get it you don't like the guy, you don't need to bang on about it every two seconds. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With respect but what a load of crap you talk. How many would have done the same back in the 70s or 80s had the opportunity to earn a good living from the sport like today was available then in other countries. We get it you don't like Tai because he is Australian and has turned his back on his home country by not riding in our useless EL. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its clear you don't get it, I do like tai, great racer and a tough cookie however he keeps saying how much he does for british speedway yet he doesn't its all talk to make people like you think he cares for british speedway, if he did then he would be riding in this country putting more fans through the gate with his popularity and helping the sport over here. a number of Overseas Gp riders can ride here but our british number one doesn't ?

I agree with you he should ride in Britain as other gp riders do but to drop him from the GB team is just the wrong way to go. He wants to ride in it and as a fan I want him to ride in it too. We can make a final here, that would be good for the sport in this country. Edited June 6, 2015 by woz01 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
screm Posted June 6, 2015 Report Share Posted June 6, 2015 Setting off in the morning for our hotel ready for Monday, it would be great to see Team GB go direct to next Saturdays Final, though I like the look of the Australian team especially round Kings Lynn.

robert72 Posted June 7, 2015 Report Share Posted June 7, 2015 make sure you pack your sunglasses!!! Anyone notice how sunny it was at Poole but the meeting carried on without sun breaks. Think several riders wore tinted lenses. Let's hope the meeting flows on Monday without sun breaks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panthers89 Posted June 7, 2015 Report Share Posted June 7, 2015 Don't Lynn have breaks for the sun because of the scoreboard and then sun coming from behind that? Poole don't have any shadows on the track so hence why was alright and didn't have a break Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
