I'm confused... For many years, Britain struggled to provide genuine world-class riders - at any level. Currently, we have three SGP riders in the World's Top 11 - Woffinden, Lambert, and Bewley. We have one of the World's leading under-21 riders - Brennan. Woffinden, Lambert, Bewley, and Brennan were SoN Champs in 2021, and Lambert was top scorer on Day Two. Woffinden, Lambert and Bewley were second in the SoN in 2022. Woffinden was second highest scorer in the semi-final, and Lambert was fourth highest scorer in the final. Brennan led us to second in the SoN2 in 2022, and was the third highest individual scorer. Sounds good, eh? Until you read the BSF... Woffinden is an Australian has-been with a massive ego and no dedication to Team GB, and was putting on his "injury" that caused him to miss the final. Lambert doesn't even deserve to be riding in the SGP's, as he's not good enough. Bewley just gives up when he misses the start. Unacceptable, so I'm told. Brennan just "isn't on the pace". Team GB now stands for "GRUMPY BSF", and some people need to just shut the hell up, and go and watch another sport...

I doubt it...

WTF? You'd already said 'goodnight"!

Funny thing is, people still question all four finalists, and whether they are good enough to be in the GP's. I think that answers the questions...

And without our best rider - again...

I agree, but that's not the way most sports work these days. However, the team with the most points can still be champions!

So, does Woffy get gold AND silver???

People have complained about it, but I'm with you... Is there anything better?

Okay, who have we got that would genuinely have helped?

Who wudda thunk it? One race, and we could be retaining our title!

Who's your money on now?

True. I'm the cook/baker in our house! And eater...

Could understand it if it were an uncle flag...

Tellboy is...

Jealousy or stupidity True How long have you got?

I love all these experts on professional sports, don't you? Obviously had a lengthy professional career, eh?

Thanks for the confirmation!

Oh ok, he's obviously fit to ride because you saw him moving in the pits...

Why don't you ask him?

And Levishyn...

Motorsports competitors need to practice, and they often practice other forms of motorsport in order to keep in trim. What if an athlete pulled a hamstring on a training run? Would you say THAT was ill-advised?

No he hasn't. The ONLY time in sport that you "let your team down" is when you're not trying. Sometimes you do things that are perhaps ill-advised, but things happen...

Chris Harris?

I didn't think we used brakes in speedway?
