racers and royals

There is a well known saying " burning the midnight oil "- well I have just created a new one " burning the 4 AM oil " !!!! I was relying on the Polish Extraleague 1st round this past weekend to give me some form pointers- so once again all the advantage to the punters !!!! However I am made of stern stuff with plenty of cash reserves available if required. Leading bookmakers must lead so here is the all important spread for the opening round. If anyone plays who is new to the competition- please read the rules thoroughly. LET BATTLE COMMENCE !!!!!!!! Spread for GP ROUND 1 Krsko Slovenia Saturday April 29th start time 6 pm UK TIME Woffinden 11 - 13 Hancock 11 - 13 Doyle 11 - 13 Zmarzlik 10 - 12 Pawlicki 10 - 12 Pedersen 9 - 11 Holder 9 - 11 Sayfutdinov 7 - 9 NKI 7 - 9 Dudek 7 - 9 Vaculik 6 - 8 Zagar 6 - 8 lindgren 6 - 8 lindback 6 - 8 Janowski 5 - 7 Skorja 1 - 3

13369 was the Torun attendance- who said Polish speedway is in trouble

Definitely NO meeting in Warsaw other than the GP - that website is one of those buy and sell agencies so they won`t have a clue !!!

8 races from last night on you tube https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgKhh12pIzerir9hTa6OULQ

So what should be done about it ? Poole fined for bringing the sport into disrepute ? KK suspended ? At the very least a combined statement from Poole/BSPA/SCB is desired.

I am getting worried about no announcement of coverage- seeing that the 1st round is on the 9th May- I am pretty sure one of the polish TV stations will have it if the price is right- maybe Eleven sport or Orange sport(who have shown it in the past.) if it`s on in Poland we should at least be able to stream it.

Skidder I`m highlighting this line you have posted " Poole had a facility granted to cover for KK. That decision was confirmed by the SCB in the morning of the 2 meetings and was still valid for both meetings." I understand that licensed Speedway officals were told by presumably licensed Poole officals that KK`s Polish meeting was called off at 7 pm on Thursday rather than the correct time of approximately 11.30 am UK time ? I wonder why that was !! I said yesterday that it was fishy- and it appears to be getting fishier by the minute.

Are you sure it's not a 2016 page ?

No- however matches have been added in Bydgoszcz and Krosno in addition to the previously announced big meeting in leszno http://sportowefakty.wp.pl/zuzel/kalendarz/2017/05/14

As I am the " whistleblower" I think we all ought to give Starman some slack here- after all as the OP reveals he was overlooked in favour of Shovvy for the important mission, and to be fair to shovvy he completed it with ease in re-writing the rule book from the Somerset pits on Friday night.

Pawel a renowned expert on the polish junior scene he told me good things about Rzeszow`s Vicktor Lampard who does not turn 16 until May. I will be interested to see him ride on TV later in the season.

I`m very much hoping that as I used the word "alleged" it might keep the solicitors letter`s at bay

Yes 3 matches off in the Extraleague- just the one left now Torun v Gorzow on Easter Monday match starts 6 pm UK time We still have the 2 Nice polska TV matches on Easter Monday still on Pila v Lodz match starts 11.45 am Krakow v Tarnow starts at 1.45 pm - teams http://sportowefakty.wp.pl/zuzel/relacja/73267/arge-speedway-wanda-krakow-grupa-azoty-unia-tarnow

I have got hold of more info this morning - and someone from Poole has been telling porkies !!!!

Bydgoszcz v Gdansk is off on Monday - Polsat have transfered their coverage to the reserve match Krakow v Tarnow

I would rather not say how I got hold of this transcript from GCHQ of this alleged phone call at midday on Thursday 13th April. KK Boss they have just called off tomorrow`s Golden helmet meeting. what should I do ? Matt What do you want to do ? KK I have already got Sunday`s flight over sorted. can we get away with me staying here. Matt I reckon we can get away with it. Can we say Gorzow have organised practice, KK Boss !! you have a short memory- we used that for the pairs 3 weeks ago. Matt Have you any certificates left ? KK Sorry none left and the Doc has said no more. Matt How about you can`t get a flight back- that`s not been used before. KK Don`t think that will wash-there is more than one airport in Poland and UK. Matt I know what we will do, we will all say nothing !! those tossers on the BSF will never find out that the meeting was called off early and if they do I will have my lieutenant`s Shovvy and Starman standing by- I better use shovvy for this one as It could get messy. KK That`s great Boss - see you Sunday

Everything still on. Nice polska team news Pila v Lodz http://sportowefakty.wp.pl/zuzel/relacja/73265/euro-finannce-polonia-pila-orzel-odz Bydgoszcz v Gdansk http://sportowefakty.wp.pl/zuzel/relacja/73266/polonia-bydgoszcz-zdunek-wybrzeze-gdansk another chance to see the latest of my "tips for the top " Dominik Kossakowski

That was probably during the days when you had more than 1 D/U for each position- bit of a difference to an international no 1 I would suggest.
