A ORLOV Posted September 28, 2015 Report Share Posted September 28, 2015 As far as i'm aware the Queen is still the head of the commonwealth so it doesnt matter either way. Australia like most of the commonwealth have now got their own anthems and most of them are better than the derge we have. Anyway Tai is racing for himself not England, the same as Lewis Hamilton did at the weekend, or maybe they also think the National Anthem is old fashioned, out of date and uses words that they do not believe in. The sooner the anthem is dumped and a replacement is taken up the better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColinMills Posted September 28, 2015 Report Share Posted September 28, 2015 Why would Woffinden sing England's national anthem? After all he has a huge Australian tattoo on him.....seems pointless being two faced to him i suggest more idiotic comments....you live in the modern world???? everyone has tattoos representing all different things. this tai bashing just a cheap shot..having the worlds best when speedway is in the gutter, people like you just like to drag it down even further!......pathetic 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
New Science Posted September 28, 2015 Report Share Posted September 28, 2015 I THINK the atmosphere can largely depend on the performance of the home riders, especially in Sweden and Denmark. Cardiff tends to be an exception because British fans have traditionally cheered for just about everyone (maybe not Nicki!) and just a bit louder for the home stars. This seems to be the case for all GP's these days even in Poland. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PHILIPRISING Posted September 28, 2015 Report Share Posted September 28, 2015 This seems to be the case for all GP's these days even in Poland. CARDIFF, Horsens, Gorzow and Krsko were pretty good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ColinMills Posted September 28, 2015 Report Share Posted September 28, 2015 But we don't have the worlds best as he doesn't ride herewhat would tai gain from riding in a weak league? a sportsman at top of his game need top opponents, its easy to stagnate against lesser opposition. he put it on the line with his superb 21pt max in the world cup (I take you didn't approve)?..you not happy hes leading the world title? you not happy he will be in the running for the FIM awards? you not happy hes getting coverage in larger newspapers? if he comes back to Wolverhampton would you stop slagging him off?

robert72 Posted September 28, 2015 Report Share Posted September 28, 2015 (edited) what would tai gain from riding in a weak league? a sportsman at top of his game need top opponents, its easy to stagnate against lesser opposition. he put it on the line with his superb 21pt max in the world cup (I take you didn't approve)?..you not happy hes leading the world title? you not happy he will be in the running for the FIM awards? you not happy hes getting coverage in larger newspapers?if he comes back to Wolverhampton would you stop slagging him off?What difference will it make for British speedway as he has stuck two fingers up to racing here. If he rode here I wouldn't have a problem because British speedway needs him and he knows that.

Niamh LOL that just Shows your stupidity, different sports, bale can only play for one team and there are no big teams in Wales anyway, tai can race in different countries for different teams,he just doesn't want to ride in front of his home fans in the uk.

SCB Posted September 29, 2015 Report Share Posted September 29, 2015 Care to have a go at Gareth Bale for playing for Real Madrid and not Cardiff? Niamh TBF, there was a time when British players started heading off to Italy (and other European clubs) that the UK press and fans got a bit upset about it. As for Woffy riding in the UK, I doubt it'd make a blind bit of difference as the man on the street doesn't gave a bloody clue who he is!

Triple.H. Posted September 30, 2015 Report Share Posted September 30, 2015 I've never seen the Spanish football team sing the Spanish anthem and they still won a Football World Cup. It means nothing if you dont sing along. They hum it as it's an instrumental as you no doubt know Can't whistle it remember the furore when Daley Thompson did Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
