Should Tai Woffinden Ride For Team Gb ?
Daniel Smith replied to robert72's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
The thing with F1, Tennis, Football, MotoGP, Cricket etc etc, to put a spin on it, all these sports put their members through Media Etiquette training. Speedway just doesn't offer it because the varying different angles riders go off on, they're pretty much alone. Who has the responsibility to cover that cost? Not everybody is natural in front of a camera / crowd. Pretty much all speedway riders when interviewed look awkward because it's not natural. Tai was absolutely buzzing when he was on the podium and with the microphone thrust in his face at his home GP he wanted to hear the crowd noise and the f-word came out. In the grand scheme of things, it's no big deal but if these guys had the same training as all other sports it would help with these situations. -
Tai isn't a perfect role model and neither should he be. It's not his job to be a role model. We defend because he's constantly attacked & it's British mentality thing for some reason. Always love a loser but knock down winners Andy Murray Lewis Hamilton Tai Woffinden All 3 are born winners but are not liked by large numbers for varying reasons.

Agree with both statements but it counts for nothing with what's happening right now. No time for sentiment, Harris out

What a fookin legend On the title charge WOFFY WOFFY WOFFY

It looks like the riders ain't too pleased either. Interesting......... To us fans it looked the obvious thing to happen. Raises a question over team spirit for me as only Batchelor has 'Liked' Rory's tweet & none of the riders have congratulated Rory on his return. Again, interesting.........

Our views are different regarding Woffy and they're always likely to be, but SRBF idea was a great call so I've asked the question with Rosco -
If we somehow miraculously made the play-offs we need to be careful who we use as EDR guests. Remember, you can only use 1 rider 4 times so Morris I'd not use for that reason. I see absolutely no harm in throwing in a Josh Bailey, Nathan Greaves, Jake Knight etc. Going very well in the NL and I'd certainly give them a shot at it

Regardless of your views, that is a bloody good idea -
Bringing Rory in for Mads was an obvious move. We're in the poop at reserve though and that's the concern. S.Lambert is going to be a big big miss

Absolutely agree Couldn't agree more with Robert's statement at all. -
Definitely think Nicholls is riding himself out the team recently. Thing is, once you've picked Tai, Cook & Lambert I think the riders for the last spot are all 'much of a muchness'. I'm leaning towards Steve Worrall though now Woffinden Cook Lambert S.Worrall Bates/Ellis

That's another thread, absolutely nothing to do with Woffy why the sports in a mess. -
