Mateusz Posted May 6, 2007 Report Share Posted May 6, 2007 Apator wibrator ! Today we're going to war. The 73th Battle of the Pomorze region. The match begins at 18.30 cet. About 15.30 we set off from the stadium and go to Torun in a convoy of coaches, cars and the police (All things being well) I should be home around 22 and will provide a full report then. It's one of those days you count days to and wait the whole winter for. I missed derby in Torun last year so I'm unbelievably excited now First time we beat them on 15 July 1410 on the fields of Grunwald, last time on 18 July 2006 at the stadium of Apator Torun. Time for another repeat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZKZ Kitten Posted May 6, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 6, 2007 Mateusz is not going to be happy when he comes back. It's 2 heats till the end of the meeting and they haven't won one single heat so far ZKZ, however, are leading after 4 heats Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Schumi Posted May 6, 2007 Report Share Posted May 6, 2007 Nicki Pedersen scores a 15 point maximum carrying Rzeszów to a 49 - 41 win over Unia Leszno. Is anyone going to beat him this year? I hope not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mateusz Posted May 6, 2007 Report Share Posted May 6, 2007 Back. In one piece which is good. A great trip and a great show made by fans of both teams. But the result is a disgrace. Only AJ and Davidsson did their job. The rest was rubbish. Of course some riots but nothing serious happened. Will write more and upload some pics and videos later on. Congrats to Zielona Gora Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mateusz Posted May 7, 2007 Report Share Posted May 7, 2007 (edited) Alright then.. I'm exhausted, my throat is suffering, my room is covered by conffeti and I'm very upset after this disgraceful defeat but.. a short report for my British mates who have to put up with their boring BEL matches on Sky and cannot normally take part in such a great event like a trip behind the enemy lines - to the derby match. The departure from Bydgoszcz was fixed at 15.30. I arrived to the Polonia stadium around 15.00 and almost everyone had already been there! It was one hundred of us going by two coaches (not very amazing actually but many went by cars too). Police vans arrived a few minutes later, we formed a convoy and set off to Torun. Of course the atmosphere on board was great. Beer, vodka and songs - polite and those less polite ones Our driver was cool and we were singing all the time. Normally it's about 40 mins to Torun but it took us over one hour because of piss-stops After a loud arrival to the village we had to wait quite long until riot police set their formations and let us in. Traditionally there were some problems with smuggling flares etc. but thanks to some connections (there are some decent people in Torun) we managed to bring all the stuff to the cage. Eventually there were about 500 fans from Bydgoszcz (in the cage). And I must admit we were quite loud too. Definitely louder than guys from Torun - at least at the beginning. Time left to the meeting went by quickly and everybody seemed to be more excited than at GP. During the teams' presentation we did our usual show - flares, confetti, special banners, songs etc. It went quite well I think. Unfortunately, our riders were not as good as their fans and they were losing heat by heat.. Bydgoszcz riders miles behind rivals was a horrible view but of course we kept supporting. And local fans from neighbouring areas kept booing at us so the party was on At this point I must admit that Torun Net Fans made some pretty amazing shows using flares, smoke bombs, balloons and other stuff. However, they were at home so they had some 'priviliges'. They were better than us but I was still quite proud of our handful of people in the small cage. In the end we were not that loud as Polonia were rubbish and even the greatest fanatics lost their will to anything. As usually at the derby, there were some unpleasant incidends as well. Some bottles from here and there but it wasn't a big deal actually. However, when some riot guards pacified a few Torun blokes who came up to the cage, a massive crowd of local hools started running to us in the safety strip (between the track and seats). And it looked quite scary for a moment, being honest. Fortunately, the "white helmets" did their job and chased hools away. Later on they beat a few others who had been provoking near the cage. After the match it was a bit like in Zielona Gora last time. Lots of idiots went wild and started running around the track and towards us. But once again security guards reacted properly and beat lots of them up. Anyway, it was a huge mess and the Torun club should be fined, especially for that first situation which interrupted the meeting. The security agency that covered this meeting is based in Bydgoszcz so I guess those boys had some fun chasing Torun hools Actually, all these actions were a bit like an extra boost of adrenalin as the match was boring (you know, gate and then the inside only...) and Polonia were simply hammered. There's no bigger disgrace for Bydgoszcz fans than losing against Torun in such a poor way. The team can lose almost everything in a season but if they win in Torun they are always forgiven. But today we lost everything (only the last heat 4:2 after Zagar's ef) and we had to leave the stadium ashamed... Of course the journey back to Bydgoszcz wasn't that funny After the match we had to wait a really long time in the cage until every bad boy in Torun went to bed and people were simply very tired. Anyway, the trip in itself was successful, nobody got harmed and the atmosphere (especially at the beginning) was just great. Can't wait next year. I took some pictures and made some videos to show this atmosphere, at least a bit. The videos needs encoding so it will be done tomorrow. The photos have been already uploaded onto my Webshots: Torun v Bydgoszcz, 6th May 2007 - photos Got a train to Poznan tomorrow (well, today actually) at 6.30, need to wake up at 5 am... Highest time to have some sleep! Edited May 7, 2007 by Mateusz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a shame it was not the desired result that all from Bydgoszcz were looking for - better look for next time. In the UK we can only dream of that level of support & passion.
