SPEEDY69 1,260 Posted March 1, 2016 I believe there was some difference. Didn't Lee decide to retire from the GB squad, while Scott withheld his services due to a dispute over the display of sponsors logos on the national racesuit? Anyway Lee might have changed his mind it's true, but unfortunately he can't. Nope, was nothing to do with that. Not sure GB will have the consistency to win this but I'll be there cheering for them whatever. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BurntFaceMan 413 Posted March 1, 2016 Chuck all the youngster in and let them have a go. Tai Woffinden isn't interested in Great Britain anymore. Scotty doesn't deserve a chance imo. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tyler42 150 Posted March 2, 2016 Garrity And to think, we had riders of Gordon Kennetts quality 2nd in the 1978 World Final, threatening to take out a Danish licence because he could not get into the English Team. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Scotty doesn't deserve a chance imo. re Tai: at international level there is absolutely no evidence for this ridiculous statement I'd be more annoyed that Nicholls has say back and watched us struggle but i do think youngsters is a good shout Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Woz01 3,589 Posted March 4, 2016 Nice to see Chris Harris will still attend the training camp in Croatia despite him not being able to ride after a minor operation. True commitment. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Simon Wigg (Dutch?), Andy Smith (Polish) and Marvyn Cox (German) all did for a variety of reasons. Edited March 4, 2016 by arnieg 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gavan 5,050 Posted March 5, 2016 The squad really isn't even open to any debate and the future looks bleak. The 4 riders will be Tai, Harris, Nicholls and Cook. I agree that Lambert should he progress is next in line. After that what do we have? The next best 3 are all premier league number ones who have been used before but fall short i.e Stead, King and Kennett. After that you also have the like of Barker and Bridger, both not good enough. I keep reading bout the youngsters well who are they? Garrity is a better option than Barker or Bridger but he isn't better than the other 3 I mentioned, and whoever thinks an elite league reserve and a below 7 average in the premier league like Kyle Newman should be anywhere near the squad needs their head testing. Our top 4/5 could hold its own but coming through there is nothing 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
