stratton 1,491 Posted April 27, 2015 . Why ride here , I don't know , maybe we should ask . Kevin Doolan Cameron Woodward. Kozza Smith, Mark Lemon, Dave Watt .Josh Graszonech , Arthur Sissis, Jason Doyle ,Troy Batchelor, nick Morris ,Dakota North, Justin Sedgeman,Cameron Heeps or Alex davies ,, why they bother , why not just bypass us and go straight to Poland .?.or maybe you could answer Sidney train the riders until they are of a decent standard . then dance to the tune of the leagues they choose to prioitise . that's what your saying isn't it Are you serious Speedi ? Or is this a tongue in cheek comment. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The White Knight 9,039 Posted April 27, 2015 The only people on here with any hint of suggestion we shouldn't be picking Tai are those with agendas. Either they don't like Tai, they don't like Aussies or they don't like GP's. In one case its likely all three. Guilty on that score BW. Who is likely to be against all three? Go on - tell me - I'll keep your secret. I still think Tai made the correct decision by the way. (Just in case anyone thought it was me). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I Like tai but feel he has let British speedway fans down by turning his back on riding here. So Not me then Edited April 28, 2015 by robert72 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

None .. I'm afraid you will find I am not ranting, that's your mantle. Still got that chip on your shoulder about Aussie riders I see. What you would prefer is no Aussies are allowed so sub standard riders can populate the teams instead.. correct? Edited April 28, 2015 by BWitcher 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

spin king 1,927 Posted April 28, 2015 Cannot believe that this subject has gone to 5 pages long. Is it not the objective of any team to put out the best possible team out to at least try and win. Of course the answer is yes. So when we have one at most two proven World Class riders why do we want to drop a rider who has a World Championship Gold medal on his CV to be dropped. Tai has not said that he does not want to ride for Team GB, only that he wants to give league over a miss, as he finds it too demanding for less financial reward, he is not the first and he won't be the last to come to that conclusion. In any other country the suggestion of dropping a World Class sportsman of any sport should be dropped because he plies his trade in another country would be dismissed out of the water. Of course Tai should be chosen, he should be the first name on the list, with Bomber Harris's name not far behind. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Correct as in Speedway thou more so in Poland it would not be allowed to happen in the first place ...As I ask before what riders from the main nations don't ride in there own league ?

Who cares. Tai has won the World Championship and if leaving British Speedway helps him to win a few more - then GOOD LUCK to him and meanwhile we can bask in the Glory of having a British World Champion again.
