Popular Post Garry1603 Posted July 4 Popular Post Report Share Posted July 4 Tate has released the following statement from his hospital bed:- Tate Zischke 1h · Hello everyone just want to jump on and thank everyone for all the messages and hospital visits this means a lot I haven't been able to get back to everyone but thanks everyone. It's going to be a long bumpy road to recovery I will spend the coming weeks in hospital fighting to get better each day. It has been a rough few days so far but we will keep flighting. So far I can let you all know I have fractured 7 vertebrae and 5 ribs and have a nasty entry and exit hole in my left bum cheek where I was penetrated by my bike when I followed by bike into the fence. I have so far had 1 surgery on my ass cheek and have been told I will need a couple more in the coming days. I want to let everyone know this crash was 100% a racing incident and nobody is at fault. I will keep everyone updated on what is happening next Good to read that he doesn't blame Keynan Rew in any way for the accident. Wish him well. 11 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AceBellend is an unfortunate exception but as soon as it happened I think we all pretty much knew it would be him coming on here and knew exactly which direction he would be sending it 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ouch Posted July 4 Report Share Posted July 4 Message to racegoers from the Belle Vue Charitable Trust For those racegoers unaware, Belle Vue has a Trust which was set up to support our riders and other charitable initiatives, supporting those in need of help. For those who contribute regularly to the 50:50 draw and Chase's White Line Challenge, those proceeds go into the trust to raise funds for these causes. Following Tate's crash on Monday, the Trust has got to action and kindly agreed to pay for Tate's Mum's flight to the UK from Australia so she can be with him as he enters his next stage of recovery. The trust has also been liaising with the team at the Speedway Riders Benevolent Fund who will support with expenses whilst here in the UK and we're sure the other crowd funding / fundraising initiatives will help him get back on his feet, replace damaged equipment and cover expenses in the months to come. All of this would not be possible without the tremendous support we receive week in week out from the supporters of Belle Vue Speedway and the unfailing efforts of David Burroughs and his Belle Vue Speedway Supporters Club (BVSSC) team. And not forgetting, the great support shown at tracks across the country for Benevolent Fund track collections. A huge thank you to you all and a huge personal thank you. Philip Gunning, Chair of Trustees. 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob B Posted July 4 Report Share Posted July 4 Tate now announced about the injury to his backside, few knew of this but kept it quiet. I gather it was an awful situation for those on track with mechanics having to dismantle the bike that had penetrated him with great care and guidance from medics due to other injuries to his back etc . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to Phil Lanning we are snowflakes for not wanting crash pictures posted whilst Tate was still on the track receiving treatment.

The photographer was his son Taylor lanning which may have affected his judgement !!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also working for the Sun he may have sold his morals away. For me I don't have an issue with the photos, it was the timing that they were published. They could have waited until Tate was at least off the track and he had given the go ahead for them to be used. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
