Grudziadz have gone above Lublin into 4th place before Lublin's match on Sunday. It’s looking likely that the round 14 Grudziadz v Lublin match will be a winner take all cracker !!

A brilliant night's speedway !! We now know that Bydgoszcz and Rybnik are in the play-offs. We also know that Pila, Ostrow and Krosno are in the play-downs. 3rd are Lodz 17 points finished 4th are Poznan 17 points- 1 match away to Pila 5th are Rzeszow 17 points - 1 match away to Bydgoszcz Poznan beat Pila 65-23 in 1st match Rzeszow lost to Bydgoszcz 37-53 it’s therefore odds on that Rzeszow will be in the play-downs and Lodz and Poznan will complete the play-off line-up.

Got Yellow card

At the moment his licence to ride in Poland for Bydgoszcz is revoked- might be able to get it back if he drops one of Sweden or Denmark.

Tonight and Sunday should provide some excellent speedway action. This is round 14 the final round of the regular season and there is just 1 point between 2nd and 5th place, so Lodz, Poznan, Rzeszow and Rybnik could either find themselves in the play-offs or the dreaded play-downs.
