BWitcher 12,453 Posted July 16, 2016 Since the reasonable debate ended on here about 4 pages ago its now become Robert72 against the "Tai Woffinden is perfect" club Reasonable debate 4 pages ago? There was never a reasonable debate to start with! The answer quite simply is yes, he should be riding for Team GB. Also, nobody has ever said Tai Woffinden is perfect, that's just a fabrication you've concocted to try and breathe life into your flagging argument. However, when you compare him against many, many riders of the past and present by the standards which you and others seem keen to judge, he comes out looking pretty good. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well that's what I read in the other thread. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
John Leslie 3,213 Posted July 16, 2016 Come on then Robert72....make the £10k bet. Tell us who it is that you're claiming to be, and then if you can prove it as you say, you get £10k If you can't prove it, you donate £10k to the SRBF. The ball is in your court...Are you going to welch yet again? Looks like Robert72 has bottled it again....He doesn't seem willing to take on the £10k bet that he himself proposed. Come on Walter Mitty......tell us which former rider who rode against World Champions you are pretending to be, and the bet is on. £10k to you if you prove you are him (which should be easy for you to prove). £10K from you to the SRBF if you can't prove it within a specified time period. (I suggest a week should be long enough?) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well he's suggested a bet and I've called him on it. So I'm sure he'll be along soon to tell us which rider he's pretending to be so that he can prove it and win the bet. The only other alternative is that he's full of the proverbial and bottles it (again). 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

stevebrum 6,820 Posted July 16, 2016 It's amusing that anyone is even trying to get the troll and bigot to own up to actually being anything that he claims to be. A fantasist at best. But no doubt he will eventually post ignoring all the polite requests .... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've been saying it's all pug wash since the claim was made, so not everyone fella He's been called/found out so he would be a fool to post again...but I guess that's what trolls do so I expect more guff will be along very soon.

Bet you don't even have a grand to give him let alone ten grand in the battle of the keyboard warriors. And if he is lying then he should be ashamed of himself especially as he is helping ruining the topic writing news that wouldn't make it into the paper I wrap my fish and chips with. So should Tai ride. Of course he should. He is British. Just because he was born in Australia and is passionate about GB not doing enough for speedway which he is entitled to say (and for the record is true) is irrelevant whether he should ride or not. Jason Crump was born in Bristol but was Australian so I don't know how 122 pages of talk has come from such a ridiculously random matter. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
