Ozyace Posted September 18, 2003 Report Share Posted September 18, 2003 Considering i went one-two in my predictions for Prague i'll have another dip. 1st Tomasz Gollob 8) 2nd J.C. 3rd Ryan Sullivan 4th Scotty Nicholls One to watch: Toddy Boy - reckon he will want to prove something to the clowns who run Bydgoszcz speedway, taking bribes is not the Aussies way. Go Toddy stick it up em! ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Sir Lunchalot Posted September 18, 2003 Report Share Posted September 18, 2003 I can't go past Gollob if I had to select my favourite. I still have vivid memories of him flashing round the outside up against the fence and passing riders at will last year at the Polish GP, it was brilliant stuff. About time we saw his smile again too Crump 2nd, Adams 3rd and Todd 4th would do quite nicely as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scottymelloty Posted September 18, 2003 Report Share Posted September 18, 2003 I think crump may have a bit of a problem with his injury although he'll still turn out, i think he is suffering from severe muscular bruising but we know these aussies are tough, i think Tony who always goes well in poland and is back to some decent form will win plus he will be the 1st rider to get over 1000 pts in the grand prixs this weekend i believe so history is in the making for him !!! Adams also is in excellent form and goes well in poland where as Sullivan had a nightmare in the last gp but he says he felt under pressure and not comfortable where as now he says he is very relaxed and expects to go well this week, Jarek Hampel could be the surprise package this week after winning the World U21 Championship , sure to be full of confidence in front of a partizan crowd. :twisted: 1) T RIKARDSSON 2) L ADAMS 3) R SULLIVAN 4) J HAMPEL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemini Posted September 18, 2003 Report Share Posted September 18, 2003 ... he is suffering from severe muscular bruising but we know these aussies are tough... With the possible exception of Ryan Sullivan who virtually gave up at Coventry after 3 races with a cut on his hand, but of course that wasn't a GP. If it was he would no doubt have covered it with a plaster and carried on. Wuss! .. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottymelloty Posted September 18, 2003 Report Share Posted September 18, 2003 Good point but to be fair to Ryan he has ridden most of the season with a broken collar bone etc and loads of injuries hopefully there will be someone in poland to kiss his hand better if he gets hurt again and then he'll make it to the final Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
norbold Posted September 18, 2003 Report Share Posted September 18, 2003 Thanks for the info, sm. I have a colleague at work who is Polish and a speedway fanatic. He has just put £20 on Gollob because he says the track is being prepared specially for him (Gollob that is, not my colleague). What a surprise, eh?

scottymelloty Posted September 18, 2003 Report Share Posted September 18, 2003 Those pesky polish are up to no good eh !! sounds like it could be a good investment on Gollob then , he'll be about 7/1 with the bookies (i'm in the business), i've already backed Rickardsson when i read about crump being injured plus he's in the heat with H Andersson who had his head run over so i think he may still be suffering from a "headache" still. But i may back Gollob as well now as a saver, cheers for the info !!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemini Posted September 18, 2003 Report Share Posted September 18, 2003 Good point but to be fair to Ryan he has ridden most of the season with a broken collar bone etc and loads of injuries... True, but he only said last week on Sky that he was fully fit and had never felt better. Well, except for the poorly hand now..... By the way, I like you already scottymelloty. You've got a sense of humour. Welcome to the Mad House. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottymelloty Posted September 18, 2003 Report Share Posted September 18, 2003 Polish Gp Full list I'd welcome any comments on these notes i've made :- Jason Crump - Suffering from injury, will take part but not fully fit T.Rickardsson - Not the best of seasons but still leading series, rides well well in Poland and coming off a good 2nd in lastgp , sure to be in final Nicki Pedersen - Great rider, very aggresive, having a good season, sure to get into semi's / finals Leigh Adams - Another having a good season, needs top points to keep in contention, rides well in poland will go close Tomasz Gollob - Pretty dissapointing season in gp for someone so talented, will go really well here in front of home support Track has been prepared for him , should get to semi / Final Ryan Sullivan - Has been injured most of season, Won the gp the other week when he was back to full fitness but really struggled in Czech Gp, heart may not be in it as he has nothing to ride for but he is a very proud man and i think a final place is in the reckoning Greg Hancock - Another having a reasonable season, pretty poor last rd so i think a semi final spot at best Scott Nicholls - Had been riding out of his skin untill the czech gp where a few riders struggled, no surprise if he made final but a semi final spot would be my guess Rune Holta - Again another who should go well, Semi Final spot but be a massive shock if he got to the final. A.Jonsson - Poor gp season , being going well for club this week but i think this could be another poor display J.Hampel - Could have a decent outside chance, has been riding really well and won the World U21 Championships this week, if the occasion dosnt get to him could cause an upset here. Lee Richardson - Another who did well for club but struggling in gp's Mark Loram - Disastorous gp series, has had injury problems to be fair and probably cant way until this year is over P.Protasiewicz - Started of the gp series well but has gone down hill a bit could be another who goes well here tho with the crowd support, semi final at best tho Mikael Max - Not as unbeatable at club level as he used to be and has done nothing at gp level, another early exit i predict. Hans Andersen - Suffered midweek with an horrific accident, sure to have had the stuffing knocked out of him after that, will struggle here i think. T.Bajerski - Could put on a good display but i don't think he'll make a massive impression Peter Karlsson - Terrible in gp's give him a miss, early exit R.Szombierski - Don't know too much about this guy but will have home support, not expecting to mix it with the big boys tho Todd Wiltshire - Terrible in gp's this season, another who will go out early B.Pedersen - No chance, early ecit Ronni Pedersen - No Chance, Early Exit Bohumil Brhel - No chance, Early exit Jason Lyons - No chance early exit I've revised my top 4 after things i've read 1) T RICKARDSSON 2) T GOLLOB 3) L ADAMS 4) R SULLIVAN Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raquelle Posted September 18, 2003 Report Share Posted September 18, 2003 I'd love to see Scotty get to the final but think that the semi's will be as far as he gets this time round. Is it true he's injured?? As for the final I'd have money on Gollob (info on that would be good as my pc wont let me get onto speedwaybet.com). iF its true that the track is been specially prepared, it should prove interesting watching. I would love to see Tony Rick out early on cos I think that for the good of the sport we need a different Champ this year. Crumpy is working hard to get it a I think he deserves it more than Tony. My prediction would be: 1/ Gollob 2/ Crumpy 3/ Adams 4/ Pederson My guess is as good as the next person! Good luck to you all. Raq Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
