Speaking with those flying around the moon was clearer....😁

Just like over here. Football in Poland is by far and away the No 1 sport... It isn't Poland's fault that speedway, in the UK, isnt anywhere near the top 10 followed sports... That fault lies squarely with those who have ran the sport for the past twenty five years or so.. This sport had literally hundreds of thousands watching it in the UK in the 70's... Then it made some fundamentally very poor decisions... Decisions which haven't ever been changed over the past twenty years or so... It certainly isn't Poland's fault that the sport in the UK is now a Mickey Mouse entity...

Woryna will be worth watching..... He certainly isn't fazed by BZ...

Of course they are .. The sport, in the UK, has no credibility, integrity, or authenticity.... It just exists so 30 year old, and plus, riders can keep riding... You win any league in the UK, and, who cares? Hardly anyone... Especially as to win it, the team probably borrowed a rider from one of their competitors... A joke sport in the UK... But a major sport in Poland...

And Brady would push Dan towards an air fence if he thought it would win him a GP... Dan, maybe this year, has learnt that, and would do the same...

The UK, once, "ruled the roost"... And, in the past 25 years, have had tens of millions of pounds given to it.... Poland have, quite rightly, looked at how this country ran its version of the sport, and, quite correctly, said "We won't do that".. Hence, we are where we are...

He has got a pretty poor celebration hasn't he?

The new Dan.... Hugging the white line to ensure the race is won.... Brilliant to watch, this lad...

Magic is back!!! Big season for him.. Interesting they gave him heat four to protect the junior... And not have a GP star to protect him like they often did last year...

ZG fans....

Given its exactly the same sport I do feel comparisons are fair... They are really good at running their version of it.... We are really poor at running our version of it...

An Aces masterclass...

The racing in the UK isn't what holds it back... It's the operating model, business plan, and leadership of the sport that renders it almost irrelevant...

Just a different level....

That PA system at Wroclaw, and also those around Poland, are certainly not fit for purpose... You can hear every word, and clearly...

Slick track for the early season changeable weather and Wroclaw, no doubt, had their riders practicing on the starts for a fair few days... With the set ups prepared for the slick surface... Be good to see Wroclaws top three miss the gate...

Kurtz certainly has what Jason Crump used to call "Polish Speed"....

Appealing to a completely different demographic... A bona fide team sport, with jeopardy and consequence on every race for the riders, never mind for the meeting as a whole... No "jobs for life" from your mate who runs the sport as a hobby... No "can I borrow Bomber for a night"... Chalk and Cheese...

That's probably as many as will attend a UK Speedway meeting in total, if every team ran one meeting in the same week..

Just a shame Laguta isn't in the GP's...

I am pretty sure in Wroclaw, 78 year old Gladys has just said... "Sit down, I can't see, and it's too noisy"...

It's a three team league, so nobody goes through from this meeting...

Putting the meeting preview on the FIM/GP website too? With a link to the stream... A link that could be seen by many fans worldwide... Can't be thinking at that level surely? This is UK Speedway...

Been announced in The Sun that she is "the face of Speedway" for the following season...

"Hi Boss, it's only me, have you seen the Ipswich press release? Are you going to pay for that extra insurance like their Boss is doing?"... "Boss? Boss? Can you hear me Boss? Boss?"... "Must be a bad signal where he is"..
