Col

Laguta caught the rider in blue while trying to cut back on first bend. Could easily have been all 4 back. Bjerre is rejuvenated first two rides tonight.

Twitch has had a few blips during Grudziadz v Lublin but nothing restarting the app didn't rectify.

Is Woffinden fit to ride?

Just ordered tickets, I'll probably regret battling the chuffing M6 on a Bank Holiday Monday but the lure of my first live sport in over a year was too much! Couldn't wait for the Brummies opening fixture 10 days later. So it will no doubt rain, after all it's Manchester and a Bank Holiday Monday. Just looked at the septets, god good the Panthers average age must be nearly as old as I am. Let's hope Bewley has no issues getting back from Wroclaw's visit to FZG the day before. Any other riders due to ride in Poland the day before?

Oh yeah Hoorah for crowds!

Whats happening Friday? Saturday May 15th Leszno v Zielona Gora 53-37 Saturday May 15th Grudziadz v Lublin 42-48 Sunday May 16th Torun v Czestochowa 49-41 Sunday May 16th Wroclaw v Gorzow 43-47 Janowski & Laguta v Zmarzlik The rest of Wroclaw won't get near any of the Gorzow top 4. For the record I think Czestochowa is one of the better Ekstraliga tracks, Lublin is probably my least favourite. Gorzow, FZG and Grudziadz are less likely to produce good racing as Czestochowa is. And Gdansk is by the worst I've visited.

If that's the case this year, Czestochowa bosses should question why he's so poor for them.

Lindgren & Zagar would average 11:00+ in UK speedway even in their current form.

I've had the same thought. Zmarzlik has been peerless from what I've seen, I missed the heat where Dudek beat him but Dudek hasn't got anywhere near Zmarzlik the couple of heats they've raced that I've seen. Gorzow are going to romp the Ekstraliga title on this form barring injuries just a question of who they demolish in the final Wroclaw or Leszno. Lublin will finish 4th.

No argument from me on Kasprzak & Bjerre, absolutely rubbish this year

And which Pole that isn't in Ekstraliga would you suggest over Protasiewicz? 24th in averages last year higher than Wozniak & Drabik. Got Twitch on Amazon Tablet, couldn't find it on Smart TV.

It was OK until heat 5, Dudek apparently beat Zmarzlik so I missed that, looks like Gorzow have sorted whatever issues they were having with a 5-1 in heat 6.

The Latvian one was the only one I could get working but it was very intermittent, had to keep refreshing browser and then occasionally got this pink screen which meant restarting. Got as far as heat 12 then gave up.

So will anyone beat Zmarzlik today?

I can handle the commentary, it's that sodding music the play over ever single highlight.

Great gate from Bewley in heat 6, dunno why he backed off entering turn 3. Janowski is looking quick today.

Whats the bloody annoying Pink screen that keeps appearing on http://spedway.ucoz.lv/

Torun now... Lambert's never gates like he did in heat 3 before, clamping Pedersen, impressed! Hello Marcelina. Correct decision to exclude Pawlicki I believe, if there was contact from Przedpełski it was minimal & a whole track outside to use. Pedersen must feel like Grorge Custer at Battle of the Little Bighorn in this Grudziadz team who are hurtling towards relegation on this form. Good night for Lambert.

YouTubing FZG action. Lampart surely jumped start in heat 10!, Great race behind him until Lublin's mechanical gremlins ended proceedings. 1-5 from Lublin reserves over Fricke... Didn't think Lampart was capable of a ride like that. Hampel makes a pass, second week on the trot! What's going on? Good heat 15! Decent meeting, Lublin would have been out of sight but for mechanical failures, 16 points from reserve enough to make up for poor effort by Kubera & Michelsen. Laguta superb. FZG, unlikely to make playoffs, 3 riders score 37 points and they still lose.

Found a YouTube of first 3 heats of Czestchowa v FZG but nothing else yet.

YouTubed Gorzow at Grudziądz. Superb heat 3 from Gorzow pair, Zmarzlik is on a different planet at the moment. Heat 4, was that Birkemose first laps of Grudziądz? Surprise to see Vaculik go backwards against the home pair that we're flown past in heat 3. Great heat 8. Bjerre should have passed Wozniak in heat 9, so much faster. Zmarzlik looks like he's got a backstright Nitro boost (from some jeep racing arcade game of the 90's). Kasprzak is awful, he's going to be a GP joke. Harsh exclusion on Thomsen in heat 12, didn't appear to his Krakowiak sure he might have surprised him. What is the highest average ever attained in Polish Ekstrliga? Zmarzlik is likely to threaten it in this form. Absolutely superb again in heat 15, let Vaculik have a quick line for the first lap, Pedersen tried every trick in the book to keep him at bay but no answer. Grudziądz will surely be flirting with relegation, Pedersen & Pawlicki have almost no back-up.

The Leszno v Torun one I found has gone, anyone got link for the two Saturday fixtures?

Haha. 53-37. Got upto heat 9 of Torun's visit to Leszno, but that will be all for tonight. Janusz Kołodziej superb so far.

Torun v Grudziadz. 49-41. Zielona Gora v Lublin. 44-46. Gorzow v Czestochowa. 54-37. Wroclaw v Leszno = bad timing for Wroclaw if Woffinden out. 44-46

YouTubing Leszno v Torun. Good stuff first 5 heats, Paweł Przedpełski looks a different rider this year. Miedziński is a total danger to other riders. Good win for Lambert in heat 6.
