A speedy recovery for Tai hopefully, but for me it was brilliant to have the group Team GB photographs without tattoos!!  (Just a personal view ;))

Speedway fans really will moan about anything.

No S O N shoud have play offs and finals. Should have been 42 heats and that's it. Poland were far the best team and should have been crowned champions. Rather silly that the team scoring way more than any other  team only come second

Bore off.

For God's sake some are just never happy.

We are world champions if you can't enjoy that then sport (Any Sport) isn't for you.

The disappointing thing about the U-21 rule is after the heroics of Bewley to come in & win on the second day, he'll probably be dropped for 2022!

Be our No1 rider by then hopefully :)

I just can't believe that so many can't just accept that G.B. won fair and square according to the rules set before the event.

Moaners is too kind to them they are just sad, sad people.

I've seen Dan mature from his Comet days.....in 2018 he fractured his femur into 3 pieces..was maybe career ending..and yesterday...

HE BECAME A WORLD CHAMPION!!!!!!!!

Oh go on then find a moan..some will eh!

I thought it was a great spectacle which led to a superb finale. If, as you suggest, there were no play offs and final then the Sunday meeting would have been a dead rubber with no anticipation/excitement etc. and virtually nothing to play for.

Perhaps some Polish fans might agree with you but I'm sure the vast majority of people including neutrals, TV viewers etc would prefer it as it was. Sport is all about excitement/edge of your seat stuff right up until the final whistle and the SON for me truly delivered on that score.

I'm still very much chuffed about last night.I was thinking though what are the reactions of the  British riders like,King,the Worralls,Harris any British rider as a matter of fact.Were they jumping about in the middle of the room like me at the final race.Do they end up being fans like us shouting and sceaming,biting their nails having a few beers etc.Or do they just not bother with the being the fan bit.

Getting fed up of reading stuff like this....yes I know it's my choice to do it ta.....BUT every team knew the rules prior to the event, and no matter what the scores were after 42 heats there was always gonna be a top three finale ok.

Why not be happy G.B. won a trophy..at last ????????????

Hope they were bothered though - because despite the veteran age of some they could perhaps still feature for G.B. sometime.......maybe depends if 'Captain Mainwaring' will allow it....bet 'Private Godfrey' won't be happy to see that scenario though.
