spin king 1,923 Posted August 22, 2016 Why are Sky showing Tai's rides at Wolves? Probably giving Poole fans a break from watching their team getting stuff at Swindon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BWitcher 12,453 Posted August 22, 2016 Why are Sky showing Tai's rides at Wolves? Oh dear. The fact you even have to ask such a question is staggering. Well done Sky. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheReturn 1,724 Posted August 22, 2016 Oh dear. The fact you even have to ask such a question is staggering. Well done Sky. It was a fair question. So let's be clear, Yes Tai is World Champion (for now), but he's just another rider. A rider who turned his back on British speedway which Pearson and team gloss over, and now he's back Sky are falling over themselves to promote him. This felt less about the World Champion riding in the UK and more about a PR exercise to big up Tai... remind me again, whose Tai's PR officer? 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BWitcher 12,453 Posted August 22, 2016 Yawn , Lovers gonna Love Correct, I hear there was a big crowd at Monmore tonight? Looks like the lovers out-numbered the haters. Besides, what the hell is there to complain about? We got to see five extra races on Sky tonight.. that's nothing but a positive. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I wonder how much it did for the self esteem of the other six Wolves riders. Not blaming Woffinden for this, but the Wolves promotion should be ashamed of themselves. Those six riders have got the team to challenge for the play offs and now it appears they are just by-standers. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

chris4gillian 1,832 Posted August 23, 2016 (edited) This thread has completely and utterly proved that gavan and chris gillian are the same person. Hilarious. I assume you jest. While Gavan and I may share the same opinion on some points (not all), my posts are less direct and confrontational (no offence meant Gavan). I have also had some private messages in the past with Dazzafl (and a few others) so he (like them) know I'm not Gavan. Anyone is free to do the same if you really, REALLY believe we're the same person. Personally I find it quite hilarious that we're being compared bearing in mind I'm a lifelong Pirate supporter and Gavan certainly is not! No they post identical messages talk in the same tone etc, its clear for most to see. I beg to differ on that. Read my posts on the previous pages and read Gavan's. Completely un-identical from start to finish. Oh and I won't call you any names...as that's not my style unless pushed beyond the boundaries of common sense, which you've actually managed to surpass. Why are Sky showing Tai's rides at Wolves? Because thousands and thousands of UK speedway supporters appreciate him - despite the handful of haters on here. Am hardly going to fly from Melbourne to Essex to meet some strange Ipswich/Poole fan am i? although when i visit home i will give you a shout, depends if im closer to poole or essex at the time though chris :rofl: Feel free to drop by Southampton anytime as I live there, not Poole! Something you would know if you bothered to look at my profile. Edited August 23, 2016 by chris4gillian Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Im sure the Wolves boys are more than happy that they have had the team strengthened and have a better chance of winning the league. Tai and Thorssell are great mates , same with Howarth and possibly Tai riding inspired Clegg as well. You do post some strange stuff when trying to bash Tai Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I said I did not blame Tai, therefore I was not Tai bashing. I didn't mention strengthening the Wolves team merely that a TEAM consists of SEVEN riders not just the one, a fact that seems to have escaped Sky, Pearson and it appears your good self.
