Conkers in Gravy 120 Posted November 26, 2015 I wonder if all the people who insist Woffinden "feels Australian" have ever bothered to ask him. The only one on here I'm certain will have spoken to him is Phil Rising and he has said a couple of times that Tai has said he is happy to be British and proud to represent Britain. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I suspect the latter Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
John Leslie 3,213 Posted November 27, 2015 Has Phil Rising actually asked him if feels Australian ? I'm still waiting for Kylie Minogue to ask me if I want to feel Australian. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PHILIPRISING 7,298 Posted November 27, 2015 Has Phil Rising actually asked him if feels Australian ? or just is he happy to represent Britain ? I suspect the latter YOU can do both. I spend much of the winter in Florida, where the warm weather is beneficial to my health. Have actually been coming here for over 30 years and very quickly slip into American and particularly Floridian lifestyle. When I'm here I actually feel American but that doesn't mean I'm not British to the core, always want to see the Union Jack raised at any sporting event. With someone like Tai, bearing in mind his upbringing, it's not black and white, Australian or British in every respect. But when it actually matters, where he was born, the country he wants to ride for and does so brilliantly, he is British. Anyone who as actually seen him in the pits at SWC events can testify to that. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Would it offend anybody out there if Tai said ' I feel Australian but I represent Great Britain ' Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ColinMills 1,728 Posted November 27, 2015 of course its about opinions, all these threads are, but are these Tai bashers the same people who will be cheering on gb in july? Does anybody on here know for certain Tai would rather ride for oz? or just gossip mongers? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
