tarabanko Posted August 5, 2005 Report Share Posted August 5, 2005 (edited) Oiiiiii!! Could this be the meeting of the year?! The best 4 teams on display. Poland, Sweden, Denmark and England. It will be a close call on which team that are going to be first!!! Edited August 5, 2005 by tarabanko Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joanne Posted August 5, 2005 Report Share Posted August 5, 2005 With the performance of Poland last night, I think they will win easily. But I will be supporting the Brits even though I will have my Scottish flag and will be with a Frenchman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rabbit Posted August 5, 2005 Report Share Posted August 5, 2005 (edited) Ooh la la Joanne! Or should that be Och la la... If the Poles ride like they did last night, it's going to take a good team to beat them let alone get close to them. Think we should be able to match the Danes at least, and the Swedes showed they're not invincible. Heart says GB for first...head says 2nd would be an awesome result and third quite respectable with our young team. But, as Tarabanko says...this could be the meeting of the year. Bring it on.

creetingblue Posted August 5, 2005 Report Share Posted August 5, 2005 (edited) Have the teams been announced yet ? As I'd like to print off a race card today at work, as I'll be at football prior to the meeting tomorrow evening. Prediction - Poland, Sweden, Denmark, GB Edited August 5, 2005 by creetingblue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver Bee Posted August 5, 2005 Report Share Posted August 5, 2005 I cannot see us winning to be honest, as much as I want us 2. We can't beat the Poles/Norwegians. I like to think we can beat Denmark and maybe push Sweden but I can't see us getting near the Poles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subedei Posted August 5, 2005 Report Share Posted August 5, 2005 The Poles were mighty impressive last night and didn't look to have any weakness in the team. But it'll be tougher come Saturday. Rickardsson will be a huge threat and Andreas Jonsson always performs well in the SWC. PK will be solid, but Lindback and Lindgren could be weaknesses for the Swedes. It's definitely between the Poles and the Swedes. The Danes were pretty hopeless at Swindon and then again last night. They'll have to raise their game massively if they're to mount a challenge. And Team GB? Welcome to the role Germany and the Czech Republic have played in the last two events. If Gollob keeps his current form going, I'd say the Poles will win. If not, those pesky Swedes could make it 3 in a row. But Gollob will be at his best, I know it, and so Poland will win. But, make no mistake, this is a tougher meeting than any of the GPs this season. It should be a classic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shalewhale Posted August 5, 2005 Report Share Posted August 5, 2005 Anyone got a good selection of odds for this meeting? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tigerblues Posted August 5, 2005 Report Share Posted August 5, 2005 Well, if the Poles have a few engine failures and tape exclusions....... GB should be pushing for 2nd. If they can get 1st, awesome, if not, 2nd will be a good result IMO. Poland are on their home track and Sweden are full of excellent riders. We've already beat the Danes so we shoule be pretty confident about them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subedei Posted August 5, 2005 Report Share Posted August 5, 2005 Well, if the Poles have a few engine failures and tape exclusions....... Surely Lindback's got to be the favourite for a tapes exclusion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCB Posted August 5, 2005 Report Share Posted August 5, 2005 (edited) I think we should get Jason Crump in for Joe Screen. Well the Poles can do it for a rider who does not live in the country and was not born there. Crumpy was born here and lives here!!

pirate paul Posted August 5, 2005 Report Share Posted August 5, 2005 (edited) As much as I would love to see them do it I don't hold much hope for the GB boys tomorrow. EFs aside I reckon Poland only have to turn up to win it. Second would be achievable, Trick aside I don't think the Swedes are as strong as last year and should be beatable. Denmark however have had 5 races each already so will be one step ahead of our lads on bike setups. Lets just hope we get dialled in early and give then a good go. COME ON TEAM GB!!!
