Rico, Upset Somebody In Poland...


Recommended Posts

The picture is real. Torun are gonna be fined for this banner hung by their fans. Polish speedway has seen a lot, but this banner caused quite a big scandal and was widely discussed in the speedway media in Poland.

What caused all this then? :D

 

The tension between Czestochowa's Lee Richardson and Torun's Ryan Sullivan

erupted some time ago in Sweden. Before the last heat of the Swedish League

match between Rospiggarna vs Vetlanda, the host's team were two points ahead

and in order to win the whole match they had , at least, to draw the last race.

After that race, Sullivan - apparently - had some grievances against Richardson

who passed him on distance, thus ensuring the overall draw. A similar incident

happened last week at Czestochowa. It seems that in a psychological war between

the two teams, in the last few days it was blown up out of proportion by the media

and Czestochowa management. Apparently there is not any war between the two

riders. They talked to each other before the match at Torun, and Richardson

congratulated Sullivan after the last race. It's a pity that the fans were not

up to the level of both riders, and by presenting an offensive banner allowed

themselves to be manipulated.

Hey Shaz, if by some cruel streak he is in the British GP next year, know just what we are putting on our T-shirts for that!
