screm Posted July 1, 2017 Report Share Posted July 1, 2017 Be great if it came back to the NSS. Great weekend last year. But no Woffinden thanks. He shouldn't be considered again. Move on without him. He can't be arsed to ride this year, the manager should not consider him next year. Use the youngsters instead. I agree with your sentiment, Woffinden shouldn't be allowed to pick and choose when he does or doesn't ride for Team GB. That said however Team GB is stronger with Woffinden in it than not and with Team GB seeded through to the Final, should we get the SWC next year, if he makes himself available again his selection is automatic.

Wildcat Posted July 3, 2017 Report Share Posted July 3, 2017 Seem to remember when it was announced Belle Vue would hold the SWC in 2016, that there was a deal in place for it to be there in 2016, 2018 and 2020. May be wrong? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

May be wrong? If that is the case would that guarantee GB going straight through to the final or as some would prefer, might there be a change and they go to the semi final, with two teams going through from the semi to the final.

Gavan Posted July 5, 2017 Report Share Posted July 5, 2017 Rob, whilst he would undoubtably make us stronger, there comes a time when we have to move on. We cannot leave a space open on the whim of a rider who has basically stuck two fingers up to everything British. No British league, no British Final, no British SWC. Guess what Tai? No British place for you in future, even if you decided you wanted to grace us with your presence in the future. Best bet is for him to take another holiday, and worry about making sure he gets that 8th place in the GP series. And leave the TeamGB berths to those that would give anything to take part. Pathetic comments again from the forums troll. Tai has issues with the way the TeamGB is run. If you read his comments if things change he will ride next year and more importantly wants to ride. Yet you feel he shouldnt be allowed..............go sit under a stone somewhere and bore off 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ouch Posted July 5, 2017 Report Share Posted July 5, 2017 Tai's only interested in riding in events that will finance his future "big ass house". Riding for Team GB does not. If he was honest about it I'd think more of him but when he spouts on about kebabs etc he comes over as a bit tedious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ouch Posted July 5, 2017 Report Share Posted July 5, 2017 Nothing? I didn't realise. Fair play to him then. I've been given duff info. Feel bad for lads out there. No "big ass house" for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speedibee Posted July 5, 2017 Report Share Posted July 5, 2017 yea maybe right. I just cant see any Brit riders being better than him before he retires you never know your luck , he may just revert to being an Aussie ,especially if he doesn't make the top 8 in the GP and needs a wildcard , fingers crossed , Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yet you feel he shouldnt be allowed..............go sit under a stone somewhere and bore off If Woffinden has issues with the way Team GB is run why did he make himself available to ride in the World Games. Nothing to do with issues, just excuses when he wants to give certain events a miss dito British Final. One meeting in the World Games on my home track in Poland , Yes please i'm available World Cup 2017, a full weeks work, potentially 3 meetings, little chance of winning away from home, no thanks site problems with the BSPA British Final, been there done that , no use to me any more, site scheduling every year World Cup Manchester 2018, one meeting at the NSS, 2 hours from home, chance of glory expect him to be available. Maybe its me being cynical but there is definitely a pattern emerging. Crying shame Woffinden is not in Leszno this weekend going for a first overseas medal for GB in the World Cup Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob B Posted July 7, 2017 Report Share Posted July 7, 2017 I think race off/Final will be in Denmark (probably Vojens) with event 1 being at Belle Vue. Any ideas when dates will be confirmed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good job that sour grapes attitude does not prevail in world sports else you wouldn't have Neymar playing for Brazil, or Messi for Argentina or Ronaldo for Portugal.

ouch Posted July 7, 2017 Report Share Posted July 7, 2017 Tedious is being wet and cold, standing in the doggy do with a rolled up red flag in my hand at Kirky Lane whilst a young Tai takes to the track before and during his stint with the Colts. Would his attitude stop me? No way, if I packed it in then he's won. I just think life shouldn't be about chasing the dollar to the detriment of those around you. Anyway, up the Lions!

screm Posted July 7, 2017 Report Share Posted July 7, 2017 So the rumours of the race off and final returning the Manchester have gone cold then, in favour of Vojens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duane Posted July 7, 2017 Report Share Posted July 7, 2017 Can Australia put in for the World Cup & instead of having it out here nominate Belle Vue as there home track? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
