I only wish I had the equivalent real money to do the same bets! 😁

Apologies if I've missed this elsewhere... Tai Woffinden has announced his retirement from professional racing. https://www.instagram.com/reel/DaplrQmuvK2/?igsh=MWhtam1kYjZvb3Uzaw==

I can't see it but I sort of hope so. MJJ/Lambert/Lebedevs/Woryna top 4 is feasible and then we're down to 8th potentially for a rider to qualify. And the line up ain't that good...

Madsen 11 - 13 - £500 LESS Woryna 10 - 12 - £250 LESS Lebedevs 7 - 9 - £250 MORE Thomsen 6 - 8 - £250 MORE Cheers. GL everyone.

Will he turn up? He did the same disappearing act in Denmark a couple of weeks ago - in between riding in the UK on the Monday/Thursday either side. Very strange....

If clubs cannot manage to complete their fixtures in a 9-team league between the beginning of April and the end of September, there is no hope. Berwick's first scheduled home meeting was 4th April and their last scheduled reserve date is 26th September - that's 25 weeks.

I don't watch BSN so didn't see the original running, but that exclusion was a complete non-event. Rushen moves slightly wider to avoid his teammate, he doesn't even run Etheridge to the fence. Can you imagine Etheridge in an Ekstraliga first turn? I know he wouldn't be within 50ft of any other rider, but if he thinks that's hard riding...!

What sort of injury allows a rider to ride on a Monday and Thursday, but not the Wednesday in between? Presumably it wasn't that serious as he was well involved at Belle Vue, and clearly it wasn't a non-speedway injury otherwise he'd have been banned (right?).

The right answer depends on what the question is. If it's to sign someone who'll turn up every week then it is absolutely the right answer. It's a shame as I rate Dan Thompson, but what a sad state of affairs that he's sat in the pits without even getting a ride while his 'other' club, in his home country, are left without him. Another one where you'd never see a Pole in the same situation.

Sounds like a good idea on the face of it. Poland/Ekstraliga do very little wrong and a hell of a lot right, so why not learn from them? Fair play to Coleman/Ipswich for trying. I've wondered for years if there could be some sort of feeder system between British and Polish clubs. Polish clubs could send youngsters, and maybe even the odd top rider here, British clubs could push their best youngsters towards the Polish club. Who knows, we might even get away from riders being attached to multiple clubs/countries one day.

Agreed. They've tried to make it an 'event' but not bothered to actually do anything that makes it interesting. We watched one last year at Wroclaw, and while it was OK, it just felt like a glorified practice followed by a race. I'm not completely against the concept, but at least make it something worthwhile, if you're going to do it at all. It's also too early in the day, so it's not like you can keep yourself entertained around the stadium until the GP starts. Not really worth a tram/taxi/walk there and back for 60 seconds of action.

Nope! Long way to go though 😉

Fair play to Bartosz, superb ride. The title race goes on!

Straight through to the final

This is not the Bartosz of old. Whatever he can offer, Kurtz has an answer to. Kurtz is nailed on for this title.
