  1. I am catching up with sqora next week, sort of dreading it now, he is going to be stressed
  2. Sqeaky bum time for falubaz, tarnow are capable of beating Czestochowa at home but are zielona gora capable of beating grudziadz, seems crazy to think zielona gora are in this position but they have a team full of under achievers and protasiewich has been for whatever reason awful this season, he has been a shining light for many seasons at falubaz and their loyalty to him has to be admired but it seems that loyalty has come to bite them this year
  3. Unless you can afford a good lawyer and they will get you off on any technicality no matter how guilty you are
  4. You don’t pronounce the G in Gdańsk either and Łódź isn’t as it reads in English
  5. I think it happens in other sports like cycling too, if you google uk anti doping it tells you about out of competition testing and I assume all other nations have the same things
  6. No i meant at their home, nicki pedersen had them turn up at his house last month and I remember seeing hampel having them do it too
  7. I want to see the tests go further, some of the top riders get tested at home at any time, obviously cost comes into it but I would like to see at least 2 riders get tested at every meeting, I’m sure riders would be more than happy doing that
  8. There is also the point of he hasn’t actually failed any drug test, he just refused to take one, we know he is guilty but even in court it would be hard to prove
  9. Is he still riding in the british masters grasstrack this weekend ? As grasstrack is a different sport and he has been banned by the SCB and not the ACU
  10. Purely by chance due to work and getting stuck behind an accident on the m6 I ended up at Belle Vue last night, so I thought I would share my fan experience, I brought a ticket in the grandstand which was £21, now to me that is way over priced for league speedway, so I took to my seat a read the programme, around 7pm the crowd which was a good size crowd filled the stadium, the announcer said we will interview the team managers around 7.10 however belle vues team manager was working on the first bend with a rake while we were treated to 40 mins of tractor racing, no interviews, there were a family next to me with 2 very young lads who had never been to speedway before but thought they would try it, around 7.20 there was an announcement that the meeting would be delayed to let the que’s that were still outside in, however that turned out to be a bit of a lie as some rides equipment hadn’t turned up,think they were caught in the same motorway problem as me ,but by 7.40 the kids next to me had got a bit bored and quite frankly so had I, chase the ace works very well in raising some excitement in the crowd, finally what felt like forever we get what I thought was a very well thought out parade and then the racing started, 2 heats and then the tractor is back out, apparently the track was to grippy, another 2 heats then more tractor racing, at around 8.30 i had seen 4 heats and 50 mins of tractor racing, the first half the meeting was pretty much gate and go stuff with nothing happening after the first corner, the match being close kept the interest up ,we had a couple of jumped starts and riders going back to pit gate to fiddle with their bikes, more delays (make it so no mechanic allowed on track in between restarts ) then the racing livened up so they had an interval,the second half the meeting was excellent and Kings Lynn deserved their win but I just felt like a few little things added up to spoil the entertainment, the racing, chase the ace and the presentation was all great but it’s just those little things that drag it down and kill the buzz and as I said it’s too expensive, the family next to me didn’t seem that taken in by it left before the end, this is not just about Belle Vue but speedway in general
  11. Unless he excluded Bartoz for tape touching that is a shocking decision , he had 3 choices, exclude pawlicki, all 4 back bunching or all 4 back unsatisfactory start with warning for Bartoz and he made a forth and dreadful decision
  12. got my tickets yesterday for the gorzow GP and for zielona gora next day,staying in kostryn on the polish border 27 miles from the track, love my trips to Poland
