Who would keep pumping their money into trying to entertain a small minority of sports fans when the vocal element of that minority anonymously rip into you every chance they get. I certainly wouldn't! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But weakens them in terms of 1-7 with holder in it 100% spot on, great signing and good for British speedway, but he won't score what Holder did, especially at home. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tyke 275 Posted August 1, 2023 He'll bring a few out of the woodwork though short-term , me included, who haven't been this year. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Diamonds85 699 Posted August 1, 2023 Not a fan of tai, in fact he's one of my least favourite riders. But I'm glad to see him back in Britain, hopefully he stays this time... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheSmiler 420 Posted August 1, 2023 Very jealous of Sheffield fans. What a fantastic signing and a delight to see Tai back in Britain. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I remember seeing Tais debut at Owlerton 0,0,0 - from little acorns! - am tempted to go on Thursday now - lets hope the weather holds!
