jeffster Posted October 20, 2004 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2004 Mr jeffster Prague is lovely in November. Regards BilaHora <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Very true, BilaHora.... Well, in my opinion, Prague is lovely 365 days a year.... However, as Rico says, there is is more chance of Carmen Electra having triplets with Pope John Paul than there is of the Prague GP being held in November.... Just aint gonna happen, dude.........

frigbo Posted October 20, 2004 Report Share Posted October 20, 2004 FIM Speedway SWC 2005 31.07.2005 - Great Britain (eliminary) 02.08.2005 - Sweden (eliminary) 04.08.2005 - Poland (play-off) 06.08.2005 - Poland (final) I give up..is there no end to how stupidly Speedway wants to portray itself to the outside world??? The World Cup in 3 different countries??!!...Mickey Mouse rubbish!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SammyR Posted October 20, 2004 Report Share Posted October 20, 2004 You can see why they've done it. In one country, the eliminators don't count for much, especially the ones where the host country is not involved. Now, people in GB and Poland will turn out in force to watch their eliminator, as most won't travel to Poland for the finals. I think they've been quite clever; this way there'll be good attendances at, at least three of the four meetings. Much better than the terrible turn-out inDenmark, and the poor attendance at the second Eastbourne meeting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beercellar Posted October 21, 2004 Report Share Posted October 21, 2004 Details courtesy of Roman Chyla : FIM Speedway GP 2005 30.04.2005 - Poland (Wroclaw) 14.05.2005 - Sweden 28.05.2005 - Slovenia (Krsko) 11.06.2005 - Great Britain (Cardiff) 25.06.2005 - Denmark (Copenhagen) 09.07.2005 - tba 13.08.2005 - tba 28.08.2005 - tba 10.09.2005 - tba (Poland - Bydgoszcz (?) 24.09.2005 - tba FIM Speedway SWC 2005 31.07.2005 - Great Britain (eliminary) 02.08.2005 - Sweden (eliminary) 04.08.2005 - Poland (play-off) 06.08.2005 - Poland (final) IF the above dates stay "as is" , then the Czech Golden Helmet weekend will have to move, as the inaugural World Under 21 Team Cup Final is scheduled for Saturday 24th September.... I think its a fair bet to say that Antonio Lindback will probably represent Sweden in the World Under 21 Team Cup Final...... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Where did u get this info from as i cant find it any where.(outa interest) looks like the czech could be a hot one this year HOORAY no coat this time or beer and water (and paper from the pols) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hazzman Posted October 21, 2004 Report Share Posted October 21, 2004 I have a slight thinking that these dates aint right. I think it maybe a Czech source adding two and two together and assumping everything by the current rumours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shalewhale Posted October 21, 2004 Report Share Posted October 21, 2004 Rumour has it - and I stress rumour - that the last round will also be at the Millenium Stadium. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shalewhale Posted October 21, 2004 Report Share Posted October 21, 2004 Hmm, some interesting ramblings in there about a possible return for the German GP and interest from Spain about holding a GP at the Neu Camp. My Lordz! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My Lordz! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Would fear that 90,000 of the 108,000 seats might stay unsold unless they race it at the smaller stadium within the complex where Barcelona's second team play Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmilou Posted October 21, 2004 Report Share Posted October 21, 2004 Rumour has it - and I stress rumour - that the last round will also be at the Millenium Stadium. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I think it would be a brilliant move to have the final round in Cardiff. The Norweigan GP had knowhere near the same atmosphere as Cardiff does. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevin Meynell Posted October 21, 2004 Report Share Posted October 21, 2004 In one country, the eliminators don't count for much, especially the ones where the host country is not involved. I'm sure crowds could be improved if the four rounds were all held at different tracks in each country. However, even if this isn't feasible, both Semi-Finals could be staged as double-header at one track, using the 16-heat 4TT format for each. The same format could be used for Last Chance and Final.

TwoMinuteWarning Posted October 21, 2004 Report Share Posted October 21, 2004 There is also the Under-21 World Cup next season. 2 semi-finals in Poland (Rybnik) and Denmark. Final at .... PARDUBICE!!!!!! (Yes!) (Which will hopefully tie in with Golden Helmet weekend!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomazpozrl Posted October 21, 2004 Report Share Posted October 21, 2004 2 semi-finals in Poland (Rybnik) and Denmark. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I think I read somewhere that there will be 3 semifinals : in Rybnik (Poland), Holsted (Denmark) and Prelog (Croatia). The final in Pardubice is supposed to be staged on October 1st. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
