spin king Posted November 8, 2015 Report Share Posted November 8, 2015 Watching Tai sing the Australian anthem with so much pride then joke around through the British Anthem just showed his true colours and he was so disrespectful to our country and those who represent it. Time we dropped him as what does he really do for British speedway ? forget the your a tai hater, this post is about being a True and Proud Brit which is Not what tai is and it was clear to see. Calm down son, I hear that Tai has been spotted on a beach in Oz sporting a nice pair of Union Jack shorts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve roberts Posted November 8, 2015 Report Share Posted November 8, 2015 You've not been back for very long yet so it's understandable you got confused. You'll soon realise why he's classed as a pillock ~ amongst other things. Pillock is quite mild actually. How are you doing anyway Steve? I think we met at Oxford a few times, although supporting different teams. Nice to see you on here again. It's been a long time. Hi there! Yes we met up at Oxford...I remember the dogs! Can't comment on modern speedway (haven't a clue what's it all about to be honest!) as I haven't been since I left Oxford to live in York 11 years ago. Regards Ps I recall a few 'pillocks' who used to comment on the old Oxford web-site (not mentioning names) but generally it was all good fun and taken in the right spirit! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Humphrey Appleby Posted November 8, 2015 Report Share Posted November 8, 2015 At leat Australia have an anthem that is actually about their country, not some outdated monarchy. The second verse of 'Advance Australia Fair'... When gallant Cook from Albion sailed, To trace wide oceans o'er, True British courage bore him on, Til he landed on our shore. Then here he raised Old England's flag, The standard of the brave; "With all her faults we love her still" "Britannia rules the wave." In joyful strains then let us sing Advance Australia fair. Barely a mention of Australia there. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barely a mention of Australia there. Yeah, but those lyrics were never included in the version used for the Aussie National Anthem. The second verse of the anthem is: Beneath our radiant Southern Cross We'll toil with hearts and hands To make this Commonwealth of ours Renowned of all the lands For those who've come across the seas We've boundless plains to share With courage let us all combine To Advance Australia Fair. In joyful strains then let us sing, Advance Australia Fair. Edited November 8, 2015 by HenryW 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben91 Posted November 8, 2015 Report Share Posted November 8, 2015 What anthem plays when he wins? Who does he ride for when the World Cup comes around? GB. He grew up in Australia, of course he is going to have an affinity for the country. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't comment on modern speedway (haven't a clue what's it all about to be honest!) as I haven't been since I left Oxford to live in York 11 years ago. Regards Those were the days when I used to drive over to Oxford when Coventry were riding. Happy memories but then dogs were banned so I stopped going. It always struck me as odd that at Cowley the majority of fans stood on the 3rd/4th bend rather than the 1st/2nd, which seems to be more usual at other tracks. Had some good times though as the Bees tended to do pretty well against the Cheetahs. Has this gone off topic? What a shame 'cos I don't care.

I hope he turns his back on team GB like he did British speedway, Yes he showed his true love for Australia by putting his heart into the national anthem then disrespected the British one Again who he pretends to represent. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
