  1. The BSPA have complicated the rules so much that there will be an explanation somewhere that will, be used as rules are so vague they can adapt an answer to suit. In real terms Kerr isn't as good as Newman in the EL but at least it's a suitable guest option.
  2. Every reason given the vile forecast and the promoters need to call off in a heartbeat. I just hope the weather isn't as bad as predicted.
  3. likewise I enjoy him beating any of the Poole riders and Aussies Love that. Confident Woffy 1 overrated Magic 0.
  4. That's you're personal opinion and isn't a definitive one. I don't see Tai as arrogant, and I do believe I am entitled to that opinion without being questioned constantly. We all get it, you think Tai is arrogant but not everyone shares that opinion irregardless of your examples. There is a fine line between arrogance and confidence I agree and we are on different sides of that fence. The turbo twins were way more arrogant in my opinion. (and you will probably disagree with that too. You are entitled to.) Just move on having agreed to disagree previous.
  5. Likewise I have given Tai stick as well. I will just beg to differ on the later. Darcy always used to come across an arrogant oaf (past tense) whilst Tai has always been super confident (not arrogant to me ). So no blinkered opinion from me either. So I'd say the turbo twins were more arrogant and obnoxious. Again all past tense.
  6. They have been worse . Who can forget their despicable attack on the city of Birmingham. One of many of their arrogant posts on social media. It's quite laughable having a go at Woffy yet conveniently ignore the shortcomings of you're own .
  7. I'm nobodies shadow . You constantly troll on and on with your opinion saying it over and over and ignoring the fact that others pull your reasons apart and shows you up for being a Tai troll and hater. I notice you like posts that try but fail to prove your point and like posts when others have a go at a poster. Try not be a hypocrite perhaps.
  8. Swindon should win this against a poor team however they aren't convincing either. 43-47
  9. he isn't . Thats why he is world champion. I see a confident young man well earned.
  10. Predictable finish tho. Looked promising early on.
  11. Who knows the real reason and I'd guess money plays it part. Personally speaking I thinks demands on the GP with extra dates added over recent years plus with Poland becoming the biggest player and the UK much lower down the pecking order plays a huge part. Plus back then everyone seemed to want to get some education on UK tracks so most of the top boys and youngsters would want to be here. I think the likes of Greg and Nicki showed you could still be the World's best without needing the UK and it seems to have been adopted as the culture. I would imagine Polish speedway culture has changed as well because virtually all of the best rode here and it was almost expected and encouraged by all speedway nations and now that seems to be virtually none existence.
  12. Wow, nearly half from 6 seasons ago. Doesn't that tell you something? Jonsson had about 6 seasons out until last season, Zagar has missed a few seasons here and Iversen wants out. Thanks for helping me prove my point tho.
  13. More are not doing the EL. They are all probably sick to death of being ignored by the BSPA , bit like the amount of fans who can't be bothered to go anymore too I'd say.
  14. He is really just a second string. Never has seemed to step up to EL H/L.
  15. The riders keep saying the same thing. Too many matches, too many racenights. Nowt to do with money IMHO. Poland and Sweden both have shorter league programmes and all the top boys ride . And they know there race nights too. And get better crowds too. Something to learn from AFAIC.
  16. That's a fair point and I'd rather he drop Sweden and do the EL. However what he is doing is the same as ALL the rest. That's proves who are at fault really.
  17. I think you are still missing the point. Garrity said he didn't want to do another season as a EDR and wanted to test himself in the 1-5. Of course he would get that chance this season if he started as an EDR. However here lies the crucial part to me and i think he probably wanted a proper starting wage not an EDR one. And I think he is right. Why should he be paid a lower wage for doing something he feels he is already capable of? Unless Cov offered to pay him a proper wage and start in reserve then there might be some merit. Do we really think the EDR riders suddenly get paid more even when riding as heat leaders??
  18. And Nicki, and Greg, and Jarek and now Niels and many others. Why can't they ride for the 5 easy minutes in the UK as well? ? I guess you've trying to say that all those riders are making excuses too - am I right??? Well, no as it's just a chance to attack one rider. No wonder no one takes you seriously. It's at least comical reading seeing you proven wrong each time to back with another spade to dig a bigger hole.
  19. Poole haven't been convincing away so far So I think that's about right. One thing tho is no team will take Poole lightly this season or should they. However I rate belle Vue more dangerous at Monmore tho.
  20. Garrity didn't want to be a draft rider so it's irrelevant. I'm sure Cov tried to convince him to stay there but why should he if he feels he is ready to move up? Cov were unlucky because they had little option once they protected Sarj and it's unfair to lay the blame at Garrity's door for Cov's team building. Off all the fast trackers I admire Garrity the most for moving up.
  21. No he isn't. He us doing what all the other top riders are doing. Why should he be any different? Because he is British? ? If the sport used him as a figurehead they could push the sport better but instead they bury their heads in the sand and ignore the obvious. The BSPA are badly advised, Tai is perfectly advised. He is still achieving his dreams and goals.
  22. It doesn't read that he will be around all season but only ones that suit. Not sure how the Stars can plan around this unless they sign another rider to share with him - that wouldn't include Troy tho who I assume is part of a re-structering.
