Speedway World Cup 2017
Gavan replied to racers and royals's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
I have no idea who he is.....just that he actually stands up for himself and wont just toe the party line that you trot and tell everybody is right. You have been so factually incorrect on so many things it must be a tad embarrassing by now. I will be at Cardiff (only missed 1 when Holder won it) and i can guarantee that Tai, Cook apart, will get the loudest cheers for a British rider from a British crowd. Those who wont cheer Tai are a huge minority yet you keep saying he will be booed. Oh and he will be signing as well so im sure you will go up to him and say the stuff you say on here to his face.......i somewhat doubt it very much..........easier to stay behind a keyboard Please tell me why he should ride over here, because simply there is no reason why he should. I dont need to lead the way of apologists. The vast vast majority of the crowd will cheer him. Stop trying to say otherwise your making yourself look daft -
Newcastle have the best averages, so going on that are certain to qualify. Glasgow and Peterborough are next so you would assume they will battle it out but Ipswich only just behind them If i was asked to say who should win the meeting i would say Newcastle. If i was asked for runners up it would be either Glasgow, Peterborough or Ipswich and they are all in the same group
-
Dont agree 3 of the strongest sides are in group A. Glasgow, Peterborough and Ipswich Of the other group i think Newcastle are clear favourites then either Sheffield or Redcar for runners up

Money burns a huge hole in most peoples pocket. Should Gareth Bale play in the premier league because Spurs turned him into the player he is? I see no reason why any top speedway rider of any nationality should have to ride in a league that isnt competitive and pays a pittance. A speedway career at the top is say 10 years maybe 15. Why shouldnt a rider maximise his earnings to the best he can for once he retires. Sure it would be lovely to see the top boys but it will never happen again im sure -

So in one breath you say that he treats it with disdain and then the next say money is one of the reasons! Of course its a main reason, when the better money is abroad why bother riding here?? How many top boys ride here? 3 If Doyle becomes World Champ he may leave. Why should Tai have to ride somewhere he doesnt want to? Maybe he could come back towards the season end and replace KK -

We was all told last year that Tai would be booed.......he wasnt Shovlar likes to think he speaks for a majority......look at the Poole fans on the Poole thread taking him to task over it. The fact remains that probably bar Cook that Tai will get the loudest reception at Cardiff. -
nothing between the two of them this season as Brady has ridden at number 4 for most of it and Masters as a heat leader. Brady is having a good season but Masters has more experience I guess that's why he is in

never read something so ridiculous and pathetic on this forum!! Did you read the twitter comments??? No you quite clearly didn't. There were a lot of comments from lots of people probably over 100 easily who were behind Tai. 2 keyboard warriors thought it would be cool to have a dig at his wife and unborn child and you think that he should have ignored them!!! Do the maths over 100 people on Tai's side and 2 people having a pop. Multiply that at Cardiff and the people that don't like Tai won't even be heard. Tai reacted on Twitter over nothing to do with speedway. When you don't know the facts best to keep your big trap shut. Blimey you made so many faux pas recently it's embarrassing for you!!! We know you don't like Tai you mention it in every post but yet you are quick to tell people to stop going on about KK on the Poole threads! Total hypocrite -

I fancy Denmark to come out on top on this. Can see AJ and Sundstrom struggling and sometimes Lindback is either brilliant or poor. If Bjerre and Iversen can score the around the same as Lindgren and Lindback then i feel Madsen and MJJ will outscore AJ and Sundstrom. Should be close -

give it a rest pal your rather boring. -
He engaged with a vast number of people on Twitter on Saturday night...........99% of it was all good The 2 people he got engaged with that got nasty actually were being nice at the beginning and then turned on him...........as trolls do. He simply defended his family.......nothing wrong in that
-
spot on wherever that meeting was held, Lynn, Belle Vue, Rye House you would still have had a gulf in class with little close racing. put the World Cup final at Lynn and granted it wont be as good as the NSS but it would still be a far better meeting than Saturday night
-
Wrong His response about his house and family was the end of the barrage of abuse he received form that 1 guy who was slating his wife and unborn baby. In my mind the bloke got all he deserved.

Tai wanted to ride in the British Final last year...the daft dates prevented him from doing that. Even this season the Polish and Swedish finals are away from any GP'S. Seems the people who run the sport in this country dont do anything to help the better riders. Even this season the first semi final was a day after the GP and the final 4 days before GP practice -
The track has gone down in class that it is true. However i dont really know what people were expecting in the meeting. Even if this was at the NSS im sure there wouldnt have been much passing, but the racing may have been faster and more spaced out. 9/10 times the Brits and Aussies were at the front and the other 2 sides cut adrift......that would have happened at any track and there wouldnt have been much passing
-
I wouldnt say Ipswich is doctored in anyway......it simply isnt a good race track and nowhere near as good as yours. It was obvious what your track staff were doing, maybe you guys werent looking at it. But as i say the start gate stuff doesnt take anything away from your win, the best team won It went on , maybe you didnt notice Nope i never heard any cheering when Schein fell i agree there

have a little look before you get your knickers in a twist. I put an lol after the comment................it was tongue in cheek as you are very quick to mention Tai in every post. I never said it was you that made the comment. You seem to be very touchy.........normal i guess for someone who dishes it out but cant take it back.... -
So if someone attacked your family and your wife and your unborn child you wouldnt respond?
-
Enjoyed my first trip to the Showground in about 20 years at least ....sad but true as im only about and hour and a half away. Racing was ok nothing spectacular unless Jack Holder was in the race.......looks more and more the real deal Thought we did ok to come away with a point but after heat one i kind of hoped that it might be a better day. There is no doubt 100% that the best team won, there cant be an Ipswich fan that thinks otherwise There is also no doubt 100% that the track staff were doctoring the starts, there cant be a Peterborough fan that thinks otherwise. Did the goings on at the start gate cost us the meeting? No i very much doubt it did, Peterborough were the better side. At best to do what they did is giving themselves home advantage.....at worst its skullduggery

Blatantly obvious that a few Twitter trolls purely and simply were goading Tai over and over. Wouldnt surprise me if it was Shovlar and Robert72 lol Tai's comments were all in good jest at the start and then people got very personal and attacking him as a person and even his family. Why should he have to take that abuse. Ok maybe in the cold light of day he could have just stopped replying but these people were very very abusive as i say. In the end he had had enough and gave some back. One particular troll who was giving him loads of grief , said in one tweet he was a disgrace not riding for the team and that he should eff off back to Aussie. Tai replied i dont care about the team your making it personal. The words i dont care about the team were then taken out of context. And when you go over the tweets he got i would suggest 95% were supportive, you always get one or 2 morons. Bit like this forum regarding Tai.........95% on his side But still you get people like Shovlar and Robert72 saying he will get no support at Cardiff lol. Though i would suggest Cookie may get louder cheers -
Who has improved joining Poole from Leicester. KK? Holder? Kurtz? Hans? Starke? Shanes? Not sure who you mean? Surely not Klindt who has added half a point going from a number one to a reserve??
-
I dont think he was saying he would Manzares over Milik...............just that last night if you were new to the sport you would have said Gino was the better rider.........quite clearly he isnt. Personally i doubt Milik would have had his best kit here for a meeting that his team couldnt qualify from I dont think Milik has any interest at all in riding in the UK.

as I was reading the thread wondered how long it would be before you troll yet again. You moan at people for having a go at KK yet you have a pop at Tai all the time. Of course we didn't need him tonight but I guess we may in the final! Now run along
