CMV06 Posted July 19, 2009 Report Share Posted July 19, 2009 I was thinking that (re dragging the dirt to the inside). Glad the whinging Aussies got beat in the end, serves Crump right for team riding Lindback home in the race-off and Leigh Adams is a complete bottle job Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parsloes 1928 nearly Posted July 20, 2009 Report Share Posted July 20, 2009 Saw the meeting up until heat 15, then had to go out so set the video for the remainder of the meeting allowing an extra hour to take account of any delays. Not enough, unfortunately so only got as far as heat 19. No repeats it appears. Any of the subsequent heats on youtube etc. does anyone know? I sky plussed it but (like a couple of years ago with the European Champions Cup Final [Football]) when a prog. overruns even as live sport the flipping thing ended well short of the end so I missed the climax. Completely gob-smacked to come on here and see that Poland won...: they weren't at the races at the point (after heat 19) that sky+ gave up on me! But having said that, what a fantastic meeting. The WTC IS the future of international Speedway, a zillion miles better than the -yawn! - GPs... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dziobak Posted July 20, 2009 Report Share Posted July 20, 2009 Anyway, thanks to all international supporters for congrats. Well, our team did what they were supposed to do. Nice meeting, keeping our breath up to the end. Fully packed stadium, adrenaline and fantastic result for Polish Team. Couldn't have been better. What are the rumors about Tai wearing foreign uniform all about? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chopper Posted July 20, 2009 Report Share Posted July 20, 2009 Geez bad luck to the Aussies, i think that ones in the bank for the future. Only in speedway can you be rewarded for being mediocre, what other sport would this happen in its laughable. Still like its been pointed out they were the rules before it started, how about to keep it close have the joker but if you havent used it you can use it in your last ride. That way the excitements still there and if its been close you still have two riders racing for the win. Cheers Chopper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers Chopper as you say rules is rules but i too am gutted for a team who did all the work and scored substantially more points than their rivals only to be pipped by silly rules imo such rules are arguable at premier league level but without precedent at international level well don the aussies (and that sticks in my throat more than a little) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghostwalker Posted July 20, 2009 Report Share Posted July 20, 2009 I was thinking that (re dragging the dirt to the inside). Glad the whinging Aussies got beat in the end, serves Crump right for team riding Lindback home in the race-off well its neither Crump's are Antonio's fault that there was a re-run of the heat. ANtonio beat Crump fair and square the first time and why should team sweden suffer because team GB and DK screws up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigFatDave Posted July 20, 2009 Report Share Posted July 20, 2009 Maybe I was watching a different event, but I never saw any team riding at either Peterborough or Leszno, only dedicated young athletes representing their country as best they could. To suggest otherwise is an insult to anyone's intelligence and just goes to show the class of moron that posts on here occasionally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CMV06 Posted July 20, 2009 Report Share Posted July 20, 2009 You ain't 'alf getting touchy in yer old age BFD, fwiw, I wanted the Aussies to win as I couldn't see Sweden doing it. Lindback did what Lindback always does, blows hot and cold. Didn't want Poland to win merely because of the whingeing and whining about track conditions at the start.

shazzybird Posted July 21, 2009 Report Share Posted July 21, 2009 Maybe I was watching a different event, but I never saw any team riding at either Peterborough or Leszno Yep reckon you was watching a different meeting then as I was watching and texting someone at the same time (Yes I can do that I am female I can multi-task) and we both said about a certain Aussie team riding another team rider home The Aussie also deserved to lose after Jason went out in front where as if he'd stayed 2nd the joker wouldn't of been played and they would of won the meeting ..... hmmmm funny ol' sport speedway isn't it ..... especially in Poland Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
